I really appreciated listening to this episode with Elva Ramirez as Natalie’s guest. The podcasts are highly engaging, witty, expressive and clear, as is her writing. I especially enjoyed this episode to learn how much similar prep work and time goes into zero-proof drinks just like drinks containing alcohol. I also look forward to reading Elva’s book on mixing cocktails for any of my occasions! Sharon
