Welcome to our first studio interview on the Bit by a Fox Podcast. It's a special one. This week I spoke with Georgette Moger-Petraske, author of Regarding Cocktails, the book she was to write with her late husband Sasha Petraske, the legendary bartender who helped to kick off the cocktail revival nearly 18 years ago with his iconic NYC bar Milk & Honey. I spoke with Georgette about her story, how she met Sasha, her husband’s legacy, his iconic bar Milk & Honey, and how Regarding Cocktails is a tribute to him as a man and also a love letter to all he contributed to the cocktail world.

This Week's Recipe:

Gin & It - served up in a coupe glass
2 oz Gin
1 oz Sweet Vermouth
garnish: lemon twist

Stir the gin and vermouth in an ice-filled mixing glass until sufficiently chilled. Strain into an chilled coupe glass. Twist the lemon peel over the glass to extract the oils. Then garnish the drink with the twist.
