The camaraderie and creativity involved in mixing drinks shine through, from rendering bacon fat to debating the merits of pre-cooked bacon from Costco. Reflections on flavor balance and effort add depth to our conversation, making you both informed and amused.

In our experimental mixology session, we explore the Bourbon Bramble and the Blackberry Smash Bourbon Cocktail, debating between basil and mint. We also touch on the controversy surrounding Yezhenufka's switch from glass to plastic containers and the excitement of derby season cocktails.
