Billy Elliott & Jon Herrera of Elliott’s on Congress

This week’s show was all about buzz, and the food and beverages that are attracting it in Tucson.

Our celebrity co-host Jessica Nenadic of Alliance Beverage, buzz-worthy in her own right, discussed some summertime beverages that were generating some buzz in her circles. We also heard from Travis Reese of 47 Scott, whose grilled cheese sandwich tipped the buzz scales just enough to attract the attention of Esquire magazine! We were then joined by Jon Herrera of Elliott’s on Congress, whose Paloma Nueva cocktail had just taken first place at the Tucson Agave Fest…serious buzz here! Our featured guest was Billy Elliott of Elliott’s, who showcased the more than 20 infused vodkas on his menu. We tasted the cucumber, jalapeno, habanero, basil and strawberry vodkas, each having earned significant buzz from everyone in the KNST studio. These beverages went beautifully with Elliott’s duck sliders, jalapeno-cheese boats, and the chocolate-dipped bacon strips. Get yourselves down to Elliott’s, and let the buzz begin!
