Liquid PLeasures is an engrossing study of the social history of drinks in Britain from the late Seventeenth Century to the present. From the first cup of tea at breakfast and mid-morning coffee, to an evening beer and a night-cap, Burnett discusses individual drinks and drinking patterns which have varied not least with personal taste, but also with age, gender, religion and class. He views how different ages have viewed the same drink as either demon poison or medicine.
Connecting drinks and related substances such as sugar to empire as well, the book runs to the present with coverage of the startling drinks revolutions in the 1990s.
