John Grisham recipe

In 1981, Grisham earned his law degree and opened a law practice in Southaven, Mississippi. As a criminal lawyer he had opportunity to experience the drama and pathos of the courtroom and to witness lawyers and judges at their best and worst.

In 2007, a mixed drink was created in his honor. The John Grisham. Equal parts J&B blended scotch and Bombay Sapphire gin.
