    New Year, New Us?
    Jan 13 2025

    In our very first episode, we sat down to chat about New Year's resolutions.

    Should the start of a New Year be about setting restrictive rules, or more about gentle, cosy enjoyment of the winter months and adding more good things into your life? When does goal-setting become too much pressure? And what about the perils of navigating Dry January?

    For Hetty, who works in the wine industry, January isn't a time to cut out drinking completely. But even for wine lovers, it can be a time for a mindful reset.

    That said, with a nod to Dry January, we rounded off our conversation with a delicious Mother Root Sour mocktail with egg white and thyme. Give it a listen to find out how to make it (Mother Root is a ginger switchel with apple cider vinegar, and it's our new favourite alcohol-free aperitif. Also a delight served with soda over ice).

    We're so excited to have recorded the first pilot episode of our podcast, I Was Listening To This Podcast (with Maddi Howell and Hetty Hubberstey), and we hope you enjoy listening too. Next time, we might even open a bottle of wine. Happy New Year!
