The spirits world has long been perceived as the domain of men, despite the fact that women have been involved in the creation, serving, and distribution of alcohol since ancient civilization. In this fun, feminist, vividly illustrated book, bar professional Sammi Katz and illustrator Olivia McGiff celebrate the spirit and spirits of 55 of these groundbreaking women with profiles and recipes, in three areas of the industry: Makers (women who are involved in the development and production of spirits); Shakers (mixologists and bar owners); and Trailblazers (women who have influenced the spirits world in other ways, such as historians, authors, and entrepreneurs). Each profile is paired with a cocktail recipe that highlights each subject's accomplishments. Hardcover Book with Printed Laminated Cover; 6 X 9 inches; 224 pages.
