Author Drew Lazor joins the party to talk about the hot trend in cool cocktails (and his book): Session Cocktails—low-proof drinks to sip and celebrate with friends throughout an evening. Drew shares recipes for cocktail legend Dale DeGroff’s Watermelon Cooler (so perfect for right now), Pimm’s Cup, and everybody’s favorite frosty wine, Frosé. Plus, Faith shares her method for making crispy polenta fries, Alex Province shares his grilled quail with mole sauce, and Mark Raymond pours a rich white wine from the Côtes du Rhône region in France. We loved it.
