232: Neal Cohen, Yoni Reisman, & Miles Macquarrie, Tip Top Proper Cocktails (Atlanta, GA)

Here's a new term you might want to remember: RTD, or "Ready to Drink." It's growth in the beverage category is exponential, but I often found the cocktails too syrupy for my palate. Until now.  Tip Top Proper Cocktails in Atlanta was founded by music industry veterans Neal Cohen and Yoni Reisman (Governor's Ball in NYC) after they recognized a gap in the market for a quality portable cocktail. The recipes are developed by seven-time James Beard Award nominated barman Miles Macquarrie of Atlanta's Kimball House and Watchman's, and they're so good, I can't quite decide which one is my favorite. How I Built This With Guy Raz is one of my go-to podcasts, and today I pay homage to that particular form with this interview, recorded live at Kimball House as prep was beginning to ramp up all around us.
