In the more than two-hundred-year history of the American presidency, there has been one element present in each and every administration: alcohol.In the beginning, there was George Washington, who sold whiskey distilled at Mount Vernon and preferred to quaff a well-crafted port. More than two hundred years later, Barack Obama beckoned some master brewers to advise his White House staff on how to make mouth-watering batches of White House Honey Ale with a key ingredient from Michelle Obamas beehives.And then there was the matter of the forty-two other gentlemen in betweenJournalist Mark Will-Weber strolls through our countrys memorable momentsfrom the Founding Fathers to the days of Prohibition, from impeachment hearings to diplomatic negotiationsand the role that a good stiff drink played in them in his new book, Mint Juleps with Teddy Roosevelt: The Complete History of Presidential Drinking.So grab a cocktail and turn the pages of Mint Juleps with Teddy Roosevelt for a unique and entertaining look into the liquor cabinets and the beer refrigerators of the White House. Cheers!.
