Episode 15: Kala Maxym&Song&Tonic - a podcast by Prairie Rose: cocktail blogger and podcaster

For this week’s episode I spoke with Kala Maxym, A professionally-trained opera singer and the Founder and Chief Event Composer of Five Senses Tastings, an LA-based event experience that pairs live music with a wine. Kala and I have recently joined forces to create a similar events company around cocktails and music called Song & Tonic. We discussed her musical beginnings, what drew her to the wine world, and how we eventually came together to form Song & Tonic. 

 

 

2 oz Vodka (preferably The Spirit Guild’s Vapid Vodka)

1 oz fresh squeezed lemon juice

1 tablespoon of lemon curd

2 fresh basil leaves (preferably wild black sage which is indigenous to California)

 

Add the vodka, lemon juice and lemon curd to a shaker and fill with ice. Shake until well chilled. Strain into an icy cold coupe glass, and garnish with fresh basil leaves.
