In Session Low-Proof Cocktails for High-Quality Occasions

Enjoying drinks with friends will be all about comfortable conversation, the best background music, and delicious bites—not worrying about having one drink too many—with this collection of 36 cocktails and 24 dishes. 

“Session-able” cocktails rethink classic drinks with low-ABV swaps for more “cheers!” without feeling woozy. In this book, distillery owner Steven Grasse and IACP-award winning food and beverage journalist Adam Erace's master mixology are accompanied by eight cool, occasion-styled mixtapes from Grammy Award-winning drummer Charlie Hall.
 
This vibey package is full of inspiration for low or no-alcohol drinks and sessions, such as:

• A lighter, Fino sherry-based Palomino and a 50/50 Martini Bar paired with shining tunes from George Harrison, Stevie Wonder, and Kacey Musgraves
• A Peach Tea-sling Sangria and a caffeinated Carajillow for brunch accompanied by a cherry tomato, prosciutto, and arugula quiche, paired with a playlist including Al Green, Percy Sledge, and Aretha Franklin

Clever cocktails, delicious food, scene-setting music—your good time is now in session.
