As we watch the first snow slowly gathering on roof tops and semi frozen rivers, we can’t help but reflect on this past year, and what a year it has been! This time last year Demo Bar was still an idea, written out in multiple notebooks, with many iterations, thoughts and directions to follow. We put our heads together and started to make our ideas a reality, sometimes agreeing, sometimes not. Step by step we tackled the logistics of starting a food business’s, finding a space, weaving through paper work, getting the right certifications and licenses. Once that was done we set out to sell our newly formed products and ideas to the general public, through wholesale accounts, pop-ups, markets, events and collaborations. We have worked hard, learned a lot, made many mistakes and friends along the way. Above all we have found an incredible community of support and encouragement within the small business’s community here in Cambridge. We are endlessly grateful and at times overwhelmed by the opportunities we have had in our first year of business. We like to take this time to say thank you to some of the people who have helped us along the way, , , , , , . We couldn’t have done it without you and we can’t wait to see what this year has in store for us!

Happy Winter Solstice!

As we enter the longest night of the year, we settle in and reflect on this last year and all of its ups and downs, grateful for the quiet, cold night to be together, and the longer days to follow.

Celebrate with a classic cocktail. A Moscow Mule makes for a great winter drink. Ice cold vodka, lime and ginger beer in a cooper mug will spice you up in front of the Yule tree!
