For this fragrant highball, Kenta Goto (@kenta_san

For this fragrant highball, Kenta Goto (@kenta_san) of @bargoto_nyc and @bargoto_niban uses an imo shochu (made from sweet potato) to express the spirit’s fruity and floral characteristics. “While you can detect the characteristics of imo shochu, it predominantly smells and tastes like lychee,” Goto says. Check out his recipe via the link in our bio.

It was an intuitive, if circuitous, path that led

It was an intuitive, if circuitous, path that led Emily Lawson (@drop_the_beet) to build @pink_house_alchemy in Fayetteville, Arkansas. An interest in both food and science led her to pre-med studies in dietetics and biology, while simultaneously consulting on culinary programs and raising her first child. While working a farmers market booth for a coffee roaster, Lawson decided she could improve upon the artificial syrups. She grabbed a bundle of lavender and made her own lavender syrup, discovering a fascination with botanical extraction in the process. Thirteen year after launching Pink House Alchemy, Lawson’s syrups, shrubs, and bitters have gained fans around the world. Over at imbibemagazine.com, Lawson takes us along for a day at the Pink House property—link in our bio.

For this recipe, @YachtClubBar transforms the Banana Daiquiri into a frozen delight. “There’s nothing more refreshing and texturally satisfying than a perfectly blended Banana Daiquiri,” says Yacht Club co-owner McLain Hedges (@yesterdayswine). “It’s very simple at the core, but the magic happens when it all comes together in perfect harmony.” Recipe link in our bio.🍌

@ChefRoyChoi wasn’t always a fan of green juice.

@ChefRoyChoi wasn’t always a fan of green juice. His family didn’t own a juicer, and he only understood vegetables as food. “The whole green juice thing just felt overwhelming, super daunting, and absolutely not something I wanted to try,” he writes in his epic new book, The Choi of Cooking. Once he did finally try a fresh green juice, he loved it, so for his book, he created a recipe that even those who don’t have a juicer can make. Recipe link in our bio.🍏🥒🥝🍋‍🟩🌿
