Set in the shadow of Ottawa’s Peace Tower, against the backdrop of national politics, journalism, and spin, Sons and Fathers by Daniel Goodwin (Linda Leith Publishing) is about how men relate to each other and how they use words to make sense of themselves and the world around them.

With the election looming on the horizon, this rich and layered narrative is a must read, and is best paired with a rich and layered cocktail, like the Son of a Peach.

What you'll need:

2 drops saline (1:5, grams of salt to ml. of water)
5 drops Umeboshi Vinegar
.5 oz. clarified lime
1.75 oz. clarified peach juice
1.25 oz. El Tesoro Reposado Tequila
.75 oz. Del Maguey Vida Mezcal

Grapefruit for garnish

What to do:
Adding each ingredient one at a time, build into a 2x old fashioned glass, add ice, stir, and garnish with a grapefruit twist.
