Dave Wondrich on the Art and History of Drinking
Manage episode 517879958 series 2944275
This week on Cooking Issues, Dave Arnold welcomes cocktail historian and author David Wondrich to celebrate his new release, The Comic Book History of the Cocktail. From 19th-century juleps to modern mixology, Wondrich and Arnold trace how drinking culture evolved — and occasionally went off the rails. They revisit the lost luxury of real peach brandy, debate the right way to build a punch, and trade barroom war stories about the revival of the craft-cocktail movement. Along the way, the crew talks Jim Croce lyrics, over-engineered drinks, and what happens when architects and bartenders both depend on Amazon.
