About the book

DRUNKEN BOTANIST by Amy Stewart is a cookbook for adult readers.

The Essential, New York Times Bestselling Guide to Botany and Booze A book that makes familiar drinks seem new again. Through this horticultural lens, a mixed drink becomes a cornucopia of plants. The New York Times Sake began with a grain of rice. Scotch emerged from barley, tequila from agave, rum from sugarcane, bourbon from corn.

Thirsty yet? In The Drunken Botanist, Amy Stewart explores the dizzying array of herbs, flowers, trees, fruits, and fungi that humans have, through ingenuity, inspiration, and sheer desperation, contrived to transform into alcohol over the centuries. Of all the extraordinary and obscure plants that have been fermented and distilled, a few are dangerous, some are downright bizarre, and one is as ancient as dinosaurs but each represents a unique cultural contribution to our global drinking traditions and our history.
