Anna-Bet is a seasoned food, wine and lifestyle writer with over a decade’s experience writing about delicious things and the people who make them. She joined The Mixer to share her love of cocktail culture and home entertaining, and as an avid food gardener she weaves sustainability into everything she does—whether it’s experimenting with eco-friendly cocktails, farm-to-fork menu plans, or fermented foods.

Favourite Cocktail: I am a zesty girl, so anything with a bit of citrus in the mix is right up my alley. A classic Paloma is always a treat, and variations on the theme (e.g., the Mezcal Paloma and Pineapple Paloma) also hit the spot.

Best Mixer Tip: The best way to be a good host is to lean into your strengths. Don’t put pressure on yourself by trying out a brand-new dish or cocktail when you are having a lot of people over. Stick to your tried-and-tested recipes, and leave the experiments for occasions when the pressure is off. Also, preparation is key—do as much as you can to get everything ready before your guests arrive, so you are free to enjoy the get-together as well.
