In this week's conversation we chat about a wide variety of topics that covers everything from drug-laced punch bowls to launching your own zero-proof botanical drinks. In between, we also discuss deBary's book, Drink What you Want, where he lays down the fundamentals of what you need to know about cocktails, while throwing pretension out the window.
