Beach Bum Berry's Potions of the Caribbean
Beach Bum Berry's Potions of the Caribbean: 500 Years of Tropical Drinks and the People Behind Them | Beachbum Berry
4 posts
Winner of the 2014 Tales of the Cocktail Spirited Award for Best New Cocktail/Bartending Book, Beachbum Berry's Potions of the Caribbean strains five centuries of West Indian history through a cocktail shaker, serving up 77 vintage Caribbean drink recipes - 16 of them lost recipes that have never before been published anywhere in any form, and another 19 that have never been published in book form. Even more delicious are the stories of the people who created, or served, or simply drank these drinks. As a hybrid of street-smart gumshoe, anthropologist and mixologist (The Los Angeles Times), Jeff "Beachbum" Berry is uniquely qualified to tell this epic story-with-recipes, lavishly illustrated with vintage graphics and rare historical photos.

Spent the weekend beachin‘ and what a weekend it was. The weather at Wrightsville Beach did not disappoint. I did read some but mostly enjoyed the family time and the ocean. Hoping to finish up two books today as I get back into the swing of things.

BooksNBowls I love Wrightsville Beach! I hope me and my husband end up in Wilmington one day! ❤️ 2y
kimmypete1 @BooksNBowls it was gorgeous! Beautiful area to settle in. 2y

This is the most beautiful beach I‘ve ever visited. Gold Rock Beach, I shall return when we are all able to travel safely again. #litsyspringbreak @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @TheKidUpstairs

TheKidUpstairs That looks spectacular! Where is it? 3y
Smartypants @TheKidUpstairs the ripples in the sand just mesmerized me! It‘s located on Grand Bahama Island in the Bahamas; it‘s part of Grand Lucayan National Park and off the beaten path of tourists. 3y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Omg!! This look heavenly !! 3y
Smartypants @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks it was! There were less than 5 people on the beach that day. Most tourists don‘t know about it. Strongly recommend if you‘re ever in the area! Thanks for the chance to remember this beautiful beach today! 3y
