  2. Up last, but certainly not least, is Kai Lucas of NYC. A ToTC CAP Grey Coat and graduate of @bar5_day , Kai works as the Head Instructor at @ebsnewyork and a bartender at @thecornerstore . He likens the craft of bartending to art, emphasizing its ability to transcend language and cultural barriers to foster human connection. Kai is committed to shaping the future of the industry through accessible education and community-building, finding innovative ways to bridge knowledge gaps in underserved markets and communities. Beyond bartending, Kai leads initiatives like a hospitality soccer group and a book club, promoting mental and physical wellness within the industry. Guided by a belief in bartending as both an art form and a tool for connection, Kai is dedicated to elevating his craft and building a stronger, more inclusive community. Kai’s mentor, Tracie Franklin, is a dynamo in the spirits industry, blending technical expertise, a vibrant personality, and a passion for education to drive meaningful change. Based in Washington, D.C., Tracie is a spirits educator, whiskey influencer, professional spirits judge, brand developer, and blender. A graduate of the Nearest and Jack Advancement Initiative, she has earned numerous wine and spirits certifications, including her Diploma in Distillation from the IBD in 2023. Today, Tracie is the VP of Supply and Innovation at Pronghorn Co, where she helps lead efforts to diversify the spirits industry. A seasoned spirits educator and whiskey influencer, she has represented several premium brands, including serving as Glenfiddich’s National Ambassador. Tracie’s work has garnered industry acclaim, including being named an Icon of Whiskey and earning a place in the Tales of the Cocktail Dame Hall of Fame (Catalyst Award). Whether on the Today Show, at Essence Fest, or leading industry panels, she uses her technical knowledge and theatre background to entertain while educating. Dedicated to giving back, Tracie mentors aspiring professionals and serves on the boards of @TurningTables, @OurWhisky_Foundation, and @aSipofParadiseGarden, ensuring her impact resonates far beyond the glass. #raisethbar2025 #pullasyouclimb #bartending

  3. Alguito SUPER diferente a lo que estoy acostumbrada! Y que si la regaba? Y que si no me salia como me imaginé que las cosas saldrian? Y que si la nieve no se mira chida? O si se mira chida pero le mancha su vestido a la quince? Que si todo sale bien pero ese rollo de nieve adentro de un barn nomas no se mira chido? Bueno, para cubrir y por si salia bien o no esta parte de la session que nomas en mi mente me imaginé y que neta no hicimos pruebas previas asta que ya comenzamos a tomar las fotos de adeveras, tambien le tomé fotos a la quince en otra parte. Ya saben; asi como para decir “pues las fotos de la nieve salieron bien culey, pero que tal estas otras en el zaguan?” 🤣😂. Les voy a ser bien honesta, aunque nieve dentro de un barn solo lo he visto en las peliculas del nacimiento, la verdad me encantarón!!!! Mi vision era mucho mas simple y romantica y ligera de lo que terminó saliendo de aqui! Me siento orgullosisima. Pero en esta si les confiezo. Todo salió de pura chiripada! Aunque mis clientes hallan pensado que yo ya me las comia ardiendo, la neta no sabia ni que carajos canijos estaba yo haciendo! Aqui les dejo una de esas sessiones del 2024 que me ponen la piel de gallina y me hacen pellizcarme. Neta! No estoy soñando y estas fotos las hice yo!!!!! 🙏🏼🤍 #snow #letitsnow #quince #quinceañera #epic #epicphoto #epicphotographers #epicphotography #yourockphotographers #radlovestories #magmod #madewithmagmod #canon #sweetfifteen #quinceañeradress #quinceañeraphotography #quinceañeraphotographer #laphotographer #houstonphotographers #houstonquinceañera #dallasquinceanera #fortworthphotographer #dallasphotographer #dallasquinceaneraphotographer #nieve #quinceañerainspiration #quince #quincedress #christmas #christmaslights

  1. Famous Sachertorte at Café Sacher Wien? Yes please 🍫❤️ If you visit Vienna, coffee houses are a must-go. Their coffee house culture is unique to the city; elegant, historic, high-end, variety of freshly made cakes & pastries, and just pure delicious! Café Sacher (in Hotel Sacher @sacherhotels ) is one of the most famous, and don’t be surprised if there is a line to get in. My suggestion is go early when they open, order a Sachertorte, and pair it with a Viennese Melange for your breakfast 😋 (Hubby had eggs tho lol) Sachertorte - dense chocolate cake with a thin layer of apricot jam in between two halves, coated in dark chocolate on the top and sides. Served with unsweetened whipped cream. Viennese Melange (there are some variations)- one shot of espresso, steamed milk with froth, and whipped cream. “Oh, that he may not discredit me tonight!” – These words of Prince Metternich of Austria marked the beginning of the story of the Original Sachertorte in 1832. The court of Prince Metternich had requested a dessert for a special occasion, but the chef was ill at the time, so 16-year-old apprentice Franz Sacher filled in. The cake he created could not have been more delicious.
 The Original Sachertorte is still hand-made using Franz Sacher’s original recipe to this day, and is best enjoyed with a dollop of unsweetened whipped cream. You can enjoy this treat in Vienna, Salzburg, and they also ship WORLDWIDE so you can send it to your family, friends and colleagues 🌍 (Chocolate) dreams do come true😍❤️ #sachertorte #sacher #originalsachertorte #sacherhotels #vienna #traveltoeat #ilovetraveling #visitvienna #chocolatecake #wien #foodiesofsf #bestfoodsf #foodiesinternationalchat #globaleats #bayareafoodie #travelaustria #ザッハトルテ #ウィーン #sflife #foodlover #sfeats #traveleurope #eeeeeats #eurotrip #sffoodie #bayareaeats #海外旅行 #internationaltravel #ilovechocolate #myfirstreel
