Forgotten Drinks of Colonial New England
Colonial New England was awash in sales, beers, wines, ciders and spirits. Everyone from teenage farmworkers to our founding fathers imbibed heartily and often. This cocktail culture reflected the New World’s abundance of raw materials: apples, sugar and molasses, wild berries and hops. Get the taste and feel for Historic New England as author, Corin Hirsch, explores the origins and taste of the favorite beverages of early Americans. Hirsch takes you back in time to learn about the multiple drinks of historic New England with a tasting, lecture and book signing on Saturday, April 7th at 5:30pm.
Corin, author of the book, Forgotten Drinks of Colonial New England, has worked as a food and drinks journalist at various New England publications, including Seven Days in Burlington, VT. Her writing has been published or cited on Public Radio International, Serious Eats, the Associate Press, and Yankee as well as in various newspapers, radio stations and podcasts.
