Today on the podcast, I'm speaking to Hari Fell. After running her own hotel for the past 20 years, Hari decided she wanted a new challenge. Having given up alcohol in 2019, she launched Nolo Cocktails and Bars, bringing choice to people who choose not to drink through non-alcoholic cocktail subscriptions, gift boxes, and a mobile alcohol-free bar.
This was a great conversation with Hari about her subscription business for people who don't want to drink alcohol but want exciting drink choices. We spoke a lot about how she develops her drinks and sources ingredients, as well as the practicalities of running a subscription business.

If you've been inspired to start a podcast in 2024 then I recommend my podcast host, Captivate.
They were my top pick when I started 4 years ago because of how easy it was for a complete novice to get started. I’ve stuck with them because it’s still simple, they keep adding great new features (like the ability to share ads like these!) and it’s been so reliable.
