      If you’re wanting to learn more about American slavery, there is a somewhat hard-to-find but somber book on the subject titled The Slave Community: Plantation Life in the Antebellum South by John W. Blassingame. It describes the first-hand accounts of enslaved African-Americans, the culture of the era, relationships between slaves and masters, etc. Very hard to read at times, but a profound look into the life of those who had lived through slavery in the Old South.

    Giinger beer and lime is something I've mixed with basically every spirit in the book at this point, because I'm not big on vodka. Gin and bourbon are my go-tos, but tequila and Jameson are also great and tasty choices, not to mention the classic Dark n Stormy, although, sue me, I prefer spiced rum to Gosling's Black.

    my go-to for vodka cocktail, a Greyhound: 2 oz. of vodka, 5 oz. or 1 freshly squeezed grapefruit (I prefer fresh, since it's more rewarding for me, personally), then pour both the vodka and grapefruit juice in a Collins glass full of ice cubes, stir (or swirl if you've misplaced your stwizzel-stick [bonus points if you get the reference]), and rim the grass with a lemon and/or lime wedge, and squeeze and drop the wedge(s) in the glass. Simple, the ice cuts the sour of the grapefruit, the lemon/lime rim adds some tanginess that I like, and the vodka is practically unnoticeable. It's great for day-drinking or just to relax with on a hot day
