This guest is a one-of-a-kind creative who just so happens to be someone who crafts the world’s most elevated and unique cocktails. Alba Huerta is a Houston based bartender + owner of Julep---who won a James Beard award for her work. She’s a cocktail educator, author, and longtime business owner---who inherited that drive from her parents--- and who plowed head-on into her purpose. What is so interesting to me about Alba’s story, is that while she’s made a serious mark in technique and flavor, it’s people and the hallowed aspects of hospitality that have driven her since the age of 18 to be the celebrated creator and entrepreneur she is today. On the podcast, Alba humbly shares her unique story of cocktails that tell a story, with a lot of advice for business owners and fans of food and drink along the way.
