Beyond the Drink: Christian “Suzu” Suzuki’s Mikoshi Negroni (S6/Ep.02)

Suzu is a bartender in the San Francisco Bay Area where he was born and raised. In this episode, he walks us through one of his original cocktails, a Mikoshi Negroni. While having spent much of his childhood and teen years in restaurants and bars that his grandparents owned in Tokyo, we also learn about the impact that his time in Japan had on his career. This celebrated bartender also shares more about his Kagano Pop-Up in Oakland, the stories behind his featured cocktails on the menu, and his pledge with Kagano to uplift, support, cross-promote and collaborate with other communities and hospitality workers who identify as POC, LGBTQ+ and more.
