About the Author
Julia Bainbridge is an editor who has worked at Condé Nast Traveler, Bon Appétit, Yahoo Food, and Atlanta magazine, and a James Beard Award-nominated writer whose stories have been published in Food & Wine, the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, and Playboy, among others. Her profile of chef Iliana Regan was named one of Longreads Best of 2019: Food Writing, and Saveur magazine named an essay of hers one of the ten best food stories of 2016. She judged both the 2019 and 2020 Art of Eating Prize, serves on the International Association of Culinary Professionals Awards Advisory Committee, and was the first-ever writer in residence at industry leader Food52. After building a career around why and how people gather, Bainbridge pivoted into why people don't, launching The Lonely Hour podcast to explore social disconnection and other forms of loneliness. In the three years since, the show has been featured in O, The Oprah Magazine, Psychology Today, Women's Health, Bloomberg, the Washington Post, the Financial Times, the BBC, NPR, and more.
Reviews
"In Good Drinks, the endlessly cool Julia Bainbridge has created a book that will not only change the way you think about booze-free drinks, but get you psyched about making them. With a well-curated team of bartenders, Bainbridge's smart writing, lush photography, and recipes that pull from a diverse flavor profile, Good Drinks will tempt any world-curious person to start giving more thought to what they're drinking."--Andy Baraghani, senior editor at Bon Appétit
"With Good Drinks, the wonderful Bainbridge strips away the tired tropes surrounding 'mocktails' and shows us just how exciting the world of non-alcoholic drinking can be. Crucially, the book gives practical insight to a new set of tools, rules, and applications to ensure these drinks hit as consistently--and with as much brilliance--as their boozy counterparts."--Ryan Chetiyawardana, a.k.a.
