We have some news! In between all of the madness of prepping for the Mindful Drinking Festival, we managed to set up a new website! So, may we present joinclubsoda.com - It's quicker, jazzier, easier to navigate, and just generally a little bit more of what you all need.
You'll find our articles archive on the blog tab, you can go straight to the Facebook group from the chat tab, and you'll still find our courses, shop and events in the usual places. You can also visit our festival and Club Soda Guide sites via the menu at the top, and use the magnifying glass icon to look up articles by searching for specific keywords.
If you're new to our mailing list, website, or the mindful drinking concept in general, you'll find a handy collection of articles and webinars to get you started when you scroll on down the homepage. Anyway, we could witter on about this for ages, so just go and check it out for yourselves!
Thank you for sponsoring Laura to run a half marathon to raise the funds to make this new website possible!
In this week's blog, we interview one of the outstanding drinks producers from our January festival, who unfortunately couldn't make it to our summer festival, about the inspiration behind the recipe and what their hopes are for the future.
Now that we've had some time to recharge and reflect on Saturday's Mindful Drinking Festival, we want to say another thank you to everyone who came .
Thank you also to our festival sponsors Big Drop, CEDER'S, and Lindeman's Wines for their continued support, and for their beautifully instagrammable stands on the day.
Thank you to everyone involved in making the cocktail masterclasses possible, including Camille from La Maison Wellness for hosting them, Twelve Below Tonics for sponsoring the BoTonic session, Bacardi for giving us their office space to host them and for providing lots of Martini Dolce 0.0, to the British Soft Drinks Association for supporting them, to the wonderful building receptionist for helping with security, to everyone who volunteered to help during and in between sessions, and to everyone who booked a slot.
Thank you to all of the awesome drinks producers who yet again proved that this space is growing SO rapidly and the choices just get better and better.
Thank you to our awesome events team who have made the setup of the whole thing, and the day itself, run so much more smoothly and actually enjoyable!
Thank you to all of our DJ's. Thank you to all of our volunteers who worked their butts off all day long. Thank you to our members for making the meetup space so welcoming. Thank you to everyone who supports us on social media, or in the press, or in person, via donations, or just by turning up. Thank you to the Club Soda team.
It's been a wild ride since our first festival in the summer of 2017. Let's keep it going!
