What is your favorite thing about being a bartender?

Surprise my clients and friends with unique recipes, personalized to their tastes; discover with them new worlds of flavors, that are yet to be revealed; generate trends, always with two goals: 1) Create sustainable cocktails in order to minimize waste and get as close as I can to a No Waste Mixology Policy. 2) Create healthy recipes that will help the overall experience of those who try my cocktails, creating a great balance between flavors, alcohol quality, and special effects.

What is your favorite drink to make and why?

Batochromical vegan sours made with POX (a corn-based Mexican spirit). Brings a balance between something new, something classic, aesthetic WOW factor and rich storytelling cultural value, making the perfect example of a "Complete Mixology Experience."

What would you do with the $20,000?

I would keep on going with my mixology and botanical studies and make a road trip to spirits-producing areas to keep becoming a better bartender. I would also love to help my community with free bar classes supported by these prize.
