episode 50: How to Make a Daiquiri Hemingway Would Drink with Dave Miller, Ray's Bar
First study English Literature, then move to London and then visit Cuba - at least that’s what our guest today did before making me the Daiquiri of my dreams. Dave Miller, General Manager of Ray’s Bar (closed now) in London, reveals how one phone call changed the course of his life.

Hello everyone - Don't get confused! Before there was Lush Life, there was Best Sips Worldwide, I rebranded after the first season. Although I reference Best Sips – it’s Lush Life through and through – the same great guests, the same music, and the same me!

From a tiny town in Scotland, Dave went from making Sex on the Beach to our cocktail of the week in one of London’s hippest bars. As an English Literature major, he had visions of writing that novel or working in publishing. After one glimpse into the Bonfire of Vanities’ lifestyle of wearing sneakers on the subway to being chained to a desk, he never doubted his life choice again.
Check out my Cocktail of the Week at the end of the podcast to see how you can make Dave's Motor City Rum Ensemble!
Always remember the wise words of Oscar Wilde, “All things in moderation, including moderation,” and always drink responsibly!
