In this installment of PMQ Live Update, Tim Harnett of Western Reserve Distillers in Lakewood, Ohio, talks about his experience in the spirits sector of the restaurant and hospitality industry. From retrofitting equipment and pivoting to the manufacture of hand sanitizer to dealing with changing regulations on delivery and curbside for alcohol sales and even collaborating on a pop-up take-over of another local business’s dining room, Harnett explains how his business has adapted in multiple ways since the pandemic started.
Harnett also shows PMQ’s Brian Hernandez how to make a Mai Tai from one of Western Reserve’s cocktails-at-home recipes requiring minimal ingredients and tools. So give it a try yourself!
