Vesterheim Cooking | Cocktails-Mead: The Libations, Legends, and Lore of History’s Oldest Drink by Fred Minnick

Beloved by figures as diverse as Queen Elizabeth and Thor, the Vikings and the Greek gods, mead is one of history’s most storied beverages. But this mixture of fermented honey isn’t just a relic of bygone eras – it’s experiencing a cultural renaissance, taking pride of place in trendy cocktail bars and craft breweries across the country. Equal parts quirky historical narrative, DIY manual, and cocktail guide, this book is a spirited look at the drink that’s been with us even longer than wine.
