248: Raising the Bar: Join Us for a Spirited Chat with the Cocktail Bandits!

🌟 Join me for the next Eating at a Meeting Podcast LIVE interview during Women's HERstory Month, where I sit down with the fabulous Cocktail Bandits! 🍹

✨ In the heart of Charleston, where history meets innovation, Johnny Caldwell and Taneka Reaves are revolutionizing the beverage industry with their feminine, urban perspective. From their beginnings at The College of Charleston to co-founding Cocktail Bandits, these dynamic women are paving the way for diversity and empowerment in the spirits world.

Their journey, fueled by passion and dedication, has taken them from the cobblestone streets of Charleston to sold-out events at renowned festivals like the Charleston Food & Wine Festival, the Atlanta Food & Wine Festival, and the Euphoria Greenville Food, Wine & Music Festival. Along the way, they've were named two of Charleston's 50 Most Progressive in 2016 and listed among Imbibe Magazine’s ‘75 People to Watch in 2018’, sharing their expertise and spreading their message of empowerment.

But their impact goes beyond the pages of magazines and the stages of festivals. These curly ladies who talk cocktails daily, educate and entertain a growing audience with original cocktail recipes, promote the craftsmanship of fellow bar professionals, and share their experiences at foodie events across the country. 

Join us as we dive deep into their captivating story – from their academic pursuits to their entrepreneurial endeavors, from their advocacy for diversity to their groundbreaking book, "Holy Spirits: Charleston’s Culture through Cocktails."
