This is one for all the foodies out there, for anyone looking for inspiration and practical ideas for reducing alcohol, and for those interested in hearing from an inspirational female founder. 

Bethan Higson is a wine merchant turned alcohol-free drinks crafter and mum of two. Her experience of juggling life as a new mum, managing exhaustion, anxiety and low mood, is what inspired her to launch Mother Root, a brand that celebrates the role of joy in wellbeing. 

Their Ginger Switchel is a neo-aperitif: a flavourful pre-dinner drink inspired by the functional benefits of the traditional aperitif recipes of the past. 

Combining flavour and function, Mother Root celebrates the ritual of the end-of-the-day drink in the most positive way.

In this episode I chat to Bethan about the emotional connection so many of us recognise when it comes to drinking, and how to harness the positive and joyful in a practical and health promoting way, rather than using drink as a crutch or coping mechanism. We also discuss ways in which to bring additional flavours, aromas and serving techniques to drinks to support physical and emotional wellbeing.

This is a really lovely episode, and Bethan is a true inspiration and all round wonderful person.
