Lush Life

There is something about the lyrics to the theme tune of the TV program Cheers that seems particularly applicable to my guest today. For those who might not know them, they goes something like this, and I am not singing: 

“Sometimes you wanna go

Where everybody knows your name

And they're always glad you came

You wanna be where you can see 

Our troubles are all the same

You wanna be where everybody knows your name” 

I’m Susan Schwartz, your drinking companion, and this is, Lush Life Podcast, every week we are inspired to live life one cocktail at a time.

Greg Almeida knew he wanted his new bar to be in West London. I’m just lucky it was down the street from me. 

Throughout this insanely stressful year, Publiq has been my, and a whole load of other people’s, Cheers. Greg and his team have created a place where the neighborhood flocks. That takes a lot of work, even when there isn’t a global pandemic.

Find out why, and how, he is the perfect person, at the right moment, to fill that void when we most needed it the most.

Our Cocktail of the week is Publiq’s Strawberry Margarita:

INGREDIENTS 

• 40 ml Ocho Tequila
• 10 ml Fino Sherry
• 20 ml Strawberry cordial
• 5 ml Martini Fiero
• 5 ml Lime juice

METHOD
