description: Winner of the 2014 Tales of the Cocktail Spirited Award for Best New Cocktail/Bartending Book Beachbum Berry's Potions of the Caribbean strains five centuries of West Indian history through a cocktail shaker serving up 77 vintage Caribbean drink recipes - 16 of them lost recipes that have never before been published anywhere in any form and another 19 that have never been published in book form. Even more delicious are the stories of the people who created or served or simply drank these drinks. As a hybrid of street-smart gumshoe anthropologist and mixologist (The Los Angeles Times) Jeff Beachbum Berry is uniquely qualified to tell this epic story-with-recipes lavishly illustrated with vintage graphics and rare historical photos.
