During the Atlanta Food & Wine Festival this past June, three of the city's master bartenders, Greg Best, Kellie Thorn and Miles Macquarrie, took the stage to discuss this growing cocktail trend and what these drinks mean for both guests and bar menus around town. Session moderator and editor of online drinks site Punch, Talia Baiocchi, told the audience, "There's a very good chance these days you'll see an aperitif section on the drinks menu."
