With our passion for crafting refreshing beverages, we invite you to join us on this flavorful journey. Cheers to celebrating life’s moments, one drink at a time!

In No Particular Order:

Mikayla Johnson

Mikayla is from Mississippi where a cold drink is often needed for those summer months. You can find her working at the Willie Morris Library in Jackson, MS. When Mikayla is not at work, she is hiking, creating, or hanging out with her cat Raven.

Darnetha Myers

Darnetha is an adventurous hiker with a passion for conquering new heights. This summer she’s gearing up for an exciting trek up Mt. Leconte. When she’s not on the trails, you’ll find her enjoying a spot of tea from her adored vintage tea cup collection.

Chris Byrns

Chris is a decent librarian, a straight-A student, and a pretty good Dad. How does one man manage all these responsibilities? With the support of an amazing partner…and the occasional cocktail.

Rain Gerteis

Whether it’s coffee, tea, smoothies, or cocktails, Rain loves making fancy drinks. She even got really into brewing kombucha for a little while, but wasn’t very good at it. Rain’s mother’s side of the family is Mexican, so she chose two Mexican cocktail recipes: a classic Paloma, and a Michelada with mango juice!

Brynna Farris

Although Brynna is generally a home-body, she loves a great cocktail and going out with friends! Her partner loves making drinks, so she is his “official” taste-tester. When she’s not working or doing homework, Brynna loves to hang out with friends, draw, and watch TV with her partner and cat, Miso.
