Raise a glass to the Great British tradition of booze, and the twelve drinks that made it what it is today Cheers!
The history of Britain, perhaps more so than any other country, is defined by its drinking culture. Built on a foundation of pubs, clubs and watering holes, the UK has remained in the global top five for alcoholic intake per capita since 1700. It doesn't matter how it comes nip, schooner, pint or yard we will always gladly have another.
But of such a vast and varied drinks menu, which are Britain's favourites? Which have stood the test of time? And what do they say about our wider culture?
Steven Parissien's Another Round? uncorks contemporary Britain's relationship with booze in twelve very different drinks. From the 1950's classic Babysham, to the house party favourite WKD, these flagship brands reflected and redefined British culture and politics.
For better or worse, the story of postwar Britain can be found at the bottom of every glass.
