The massively popular trend of low-alcohol (or "session") cocktail culture gets the rockstar treatment from distillery owner Steven Grasse and IACP-award-winning food and beverage journalist Adam Erace. The successful team, whose previous books netted 15k copies, brings readers an entertaining, heavy, lifestyle-focused, and music-inflected odeβ€”complete with cocktails, small bites, playlists, and stunning photographs.

"Session-able" cocktails rethink classic drinks with low-ABV swaps for more "cheers!" without feeling woozy. In In Session, 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 musicβ€”your good time is now in session.

About the Author

Steven Grasse is an entrepreneur equally influenced by punk rock and New England transcendentalism. After creating some of the most outrageous booze brands of the twenty-first century seemingly out of thin air (Hendrick's Gin, Sailor Jerry Rum, Art in the Age Craft Spirits), he opened the award-winning Tamworth Distilling & Mercantile in the White Mountains of New Hampshire in 2015. Steven is also the author of Colonial Spirits: A Toast To Our Drunken History, The Good Reverend's Guide to Infused Spirits, Evil Empire, the IACP-nominated The Cocktail Workshop, and Brand Mysticism. He lives and works in Philadelphia, but his heart is always at his farmhouse in the White Mountains.

Adam Erace is a food and travel writer who contributes to more than 50 publications, including Men's Journal, Fortune, Food & Wine, and Travel + Leisure. His writing has been recognized with awards from the International Association of Culinary Professionals and the Association of Food Journalists. He is the co-owner of Green Aisle Grocery, a gourmet market with two locations in Philadelphia. He lives in South Philly with his wife and two maniacal rescue dogs.
