Did someone say Ponzi scheme? On this week’s episode of Malice & Mocktails Katie tells us about Charles Ponzi, the namesake of the term Ponzi Scheme. Hold on to your butts because it’s kind of a wild ride for such a simple scheme. It is also so incredibly tragic how this man swindled thousands upon thousands of men and women, some even out of their life savings - and it still happens today.

For our #mocktail this week, Katie highlights Mocktails which offers uniquely crafted zero proof beverages including espresso martini, mockapolitan, mockscow mule, sansgria, and mockarita - we also LOVE the drink names.
