One last call with drinks writer Brad Thomas Parsons
Episode description
Today, we're excited to welcome BRAD THOMAS PARSONS to Salt + Spine, the podcast on stories behind cookbooks, in our first-ever DRINKS WEEK. This week, we're releasing four all-new episodes with some of the leading authors of recent cocktail and wine books.
Brad is the author of several cocktail books, including Bitters: A Spirited History of a Classic Cure-All, which won both the James Beard and International Association of Culinary Professionals cookbook awards. He also wrote Amaro: The Spirited World of Bittersweet, Herbal Liqueurs, and a super fun volume titled Distillery Cats: Profiles in Courage of the World’s Most Spirited Mousers. And in his latest book, Last Call: Bartenders On Their Final Drink And The Wisdom And Rituals Of Closing Time, he asks a variant of the age-old last-meal question to bartenders across the country: "What would you last drink be?”
