Book 2 launched 11/14/24 | Once Upon a Cocktail - The LA Guide to the Non-Alcoholic Movement!
Dive into a world where cocktails are crafted without a drop of liquor—welcome to The LA Guide to the Non-Alcoholic Movement!
Once Upon a Cocktail shares an exciting new book from their libation series. This publication is an introduction to the movers and shakers who are pioneering Los Angeles’ Alcohol-Free (AF) lifestyle. The book highlights unexpected angles and aspects of this growing business sector through interviews and sacred recipes from twelve remarkable entities. The Non-Alcoholic (NA) movement is one of the fastest growing spaces in the "spirit" industry—we use the word "spirit" loosely as it nuzzles its way into that category, even though it's zero proof!
This is an insightful representation from spirit-free stores, bars, bartenders, booze-less renegades, NA ambassadors, pop-up conceptualists, and AF event planners and activation specialists.
Foreword by “Drink Masters” winner LP O’Brien, and featuring Anonymous—the Banksy of the cocktail world—in partnership with Plaid Circus, Stay Zero Proof’s beverage director Derek Brown, Redland's The Overland owner-operator Bryan Bruce, Mexican pop-up sensation Bar Nuda, Essie Evans from Shirley's Temple, Brianda Gonzalez of the store-of-stores The New Bar, the dream team at Free Spirited, Thunderbolt’s award-winning Tom Liu, Corey Phillips representing Kimpton Everly Hotel, LA superstar Naomi Schimek, Good + Bar founder Daryl Schwartz, and Brynn Smith of Bar Next Door.
