How to Drink Seychelles Magical Cocktails with Flavien Joubert, Seychelles

How does one man get from the Seychelles to war-torn Cyprus back again to write THE book on Seychelles’ Cocktails without a phone, ipad or wireless?

----

Hello everyone - Don't get confused! Before there was Lush Life, there was Best Sips Worldwide, I rebranded after the first season. Although I reference Best Sips – it’s Lush Life through and through – the same great guests, the same music, and the same me!

-----

I was invited to visit the Seychelles for their annual International Carnival. Having never been there before, I had no idea what their drink of choice might be - so I literally googled Seychelles Cocktails. To my surprise, I found that a Mr. Flavien Joubert had written a book with that exact title.

When he agreed to meet me for a chat, I had no idea that we had a common link and that was Cyprus. My personal drinking partner for the last ten years has been a Cypriot, so I know the country and its history quite well. How Flavien made it from a refugee camp in Nicosia back to slinging cocktails is one incredible story!

Flavien makes reference to the war in Cyprus - if you wish to know more please, please click here to see what's happening in the Cypriot capitol of Nicosia.

Always remember the wise words of Oscar Wilde, “All things in moderation, including moderation,” and always drink responsibly!
