On this week’s episode, host Caryn Antonini is joined by Bryan Tiedemann, CEO and co-founder of Dirty Pelican, a collection of ultra premium skinny, organic cocktail mixers that are designed to create stress-free, refreshing cocktails - or mocktails - that actually taste amazing.

I was curious myself about the mixers, being a food and drink snob, and was blown away by how good these mixers truly are. So, naturally I purchased his mixers and struck up a conversation to learn more. And here we are today with Bryan…
