Index
Brittany Jacques is the nom de plume of a husband-and-wife team who are addicted to good food, great drinks, and college football season. Although both are native midwesterners, the duo hails from sunny (but often rainy) Florida. Vodka is their secret passion.
As a lover of great craft brews, How to Be a Vodka Snob is an excellent book for me to learn about this classic spirit. With history, ingredients, and amazing recipes, Jacques has done a perfect job educating us on all the ways vodka can be enjoyed alone, in mixed drinks, or in food. I'll refer back to this book for years to come.

The photography in How to Be a Vodka Snob is stunning, and the voice is conversational and entertaining. The title notwithstanding, there's nothing at all snobby in this book.

A fast-paced cultural romp and a crash course on all things vodka.
