The French tradition of aperitif is beautifully celebrated in this
award-winning book. Photographed on location in France, Kathryn Kleinman's
evocative images truly capture the elements of this charming ritual- a time
of transition from work to leisure when friends and family gather to enjoy
light drinks, savory snacks and good conversation. Acclaimed writer
Georgeanne Brennan shares her recipes for infused wines, classic aperitifs,
and non-alcoholic drinks as well as for the simple yet delicious food that
traditionally accompanies them. Winner of an IACP Julia Child Cookbook Award
in 1998, Aperitif is a delightful look at this enjoyable aspect of French culture.
