rhonda Withers AKA ‘The margarita mum’

Biography:

Name: Rhonda Withers

Location: Melbourne, Australia

Instagram: @the_margarita_mum

Experience:

The Margarita Mum is a cocktail and mocktail recipe creator, stylist & photographer. She’s a ‘Drinkstagrammer’ by passion with more than 2000 posts of delicious cocktails, with over four years of creating vivid & impactful content. She’s also collaborated with many different alcohol brands.

Favourite cocktail and why:

Margaritas of course! The margarita is an easy to make, happy drink that is great for enjoying with family and friends.

What do you love about making cocktails?

I absolutely love the creativity side of cocktail making. I find it very relaxing and enjoyable. I love coming up with new recipe and garnishing/styling ideas. The Margarita Mum brings me so much joy and happiness. What’s the saying about doing something you love and never working a day in your life? Well, this is something I want to work hard at, and I love it.

What’s the best rum recipe for beginners?

Definitely a Pina Colada! Who doesn’t love a pina colada?! 

What are the upcoming cocktail trends?

 Cocktail and drink recipes are everywhere now, and there is so much information for home bar enthusiasts to create delicious drinks at home. I have seen an increase in the popularity of well stocked bar trolleys at home. 

One of the other biggest emerging trends, is low and no alcohol ‘spirits’ including aperitifs, gin, dark spirits and vodka that are offering consumers alternatives to drinking alcohol. My mocktail creations are becoming increasingly popular and I am being regularly asked by followers of the margarita mum and brands to create mocktails!
