Sisters Belinda Kelly and Venise Cunningham have grown a successful business together, Simple Goodness Farm, embracing nostalgia, nature, and a back-to-basics way of living. They’ve given a unique cottagecore spin to their cocktails and family-friendly happy hours with the syrups, tinctures, juices, spirits, shrubs, cocktails, and mocktails showcased in Drink Your Garden.

Meet the Authors:
With so much focus on what we eat, it feels like drinks deserve the same attention. That’s what my sister Venise Cunningham and I set out to do with Drink Your Garden: Recipes, Stories, and Tips from the Simple Goodness Cocktail Farm (March 25, 2025).
This book is all about intentional drinking—whether that’s crafting a great cocktail, making a zero-proof option, or simply using fresh, seasonal ingredients. Using my knowledge as a bartender and my sister's as a farmer, we share over 100 recipes, from classic cocktails like the Pumpkin Spice Espresso Martini to nonalcoholic sippers like a Creamy Tea Cobbler or Lavender Honey Cordial Spritz.
Thank you for ordering our book, we can't wait to share with you delicious drinks and lots of lessons learned from our time on the cocktail farm!
Cheers!
Belinda (the bartender) and Venise (the farmer)
