This month we learn about creating seasonal cocktails in France with Allison Kave founder Izzy’s Paris cocktail delivery service. We talk about how this cocktail biz came to be in Covid times, how seasonal approaches differ in France versus the US, seasonal versus local choices, where to go for seasonal food/drinks in Paris and more.

Each cocktail comes with a garnish

Allison Kave is an entrepreneur, bartender, and baker, who recently moved from Brooklyn to Paris. She’s the co-founder of Izzy’s Paris and Butter & Scotch, the host of the Fork Marry Kill podcast, and the author of First Prize Pies and the Butter & Scotch cookbook. When she’s not in the kitchen coming up with new recipes, she’s walking around the city trying to pet strangers’ dogs.
