Juke Joints, Jazz Clubs, and Juice: A Cocktail Recipe Book

“Based on her vast culinary research, James Beard Award winner Tipton-Martin pens an illuminating and glorious work of history and libations, celebrating Black mixologists and the drinks they created. Each offering includes an informative and engaging headnote that places the beverage in its context and milieu. The lengthy bibliography of titles published between 1827 and today is a testimony to Tipton-Martin’s vital scholarship. Pour the cognac, coffee, and cream.”—Library Journal
