Liquid Assets In this Q&A interview, learn how this perfect pair are educating minds and palates about wine, spirits and food. PHOTOGRAPHY BY SHEN CRONIN REYNA

John and Shen Reyna of Teakwood Tavern Hospitality

LOCA L LIM E LIGH T | FOOD + BE VE RAGE

Meet Shenandoah “Shen” Cronin Reyna and John Reyna, a husband and wife duo who run Teakwood Tavern Hospitality. Their diverse and unique backgrounds blend like one of their favorite Rhone wines to deliver an amazing experience for their lucky clients. The latter enjoy their educational classes and custom drinks for their home bar. As Shen says, “Everyone should have a personalized drink!” We couldn’t agree more! Shen and John run Teakwood Tavern as a side gig. For their “day” jobs, John is a professor and attorney and teaches Restaurant and Beverage Management at the University of North Texas at Dallas. Shen works as a Client Executive and tech geek for Sirius.

CITY LIFESTYLE TROPHY WEST (CLTW): TELL US WHEN YOU STARTED TTH. TTH: John spent several decades in the hospitality industry before law school as a restaurant manager, sommelier and banquet manager. [His] passion was always on the beverage side of hospitality; he enjoyed creating wine and cocktail programs. Fast-forward to 2015. We met at a bar, and since we’re both newly transplanted to Dallas, we spent our courtship exploring the Dallas food and beverage scene. As we built a life together, we also built a home bar. Never the bunch to do something half-hearted, we invested in cocktail and wine books, glassware and booze. Pretty soon, our home bar had its cocktail menu for guests. Our friends took notice and began asking us to create beverage programs for special events. Whether we’re making his-and-her cocktails for a wedding or pairing wines for dinner parties, there was a demand for our liquid talents. In March 2020, at the start of the pandemic, we found ourselves with a little extra time so we finally executed our dream to form Teakwood Tavern Hospitality, LLC.

CLTW: HOW HAS TTH EVOLVED FROM WHEN YOU STARTED? TTH: Starting Teakwood in March 2020 meant everything had to be virtual. Nowadays, we hold more in-person events than virtual ones. We recently taught a wine class for the staff of one of DFW's premier restaurants – Roots Southern Table. We've created cocktails for holiday work parties. Lately, we’ve worked with many individual clients who want a specialty cocktail or zeroproof beverage for their homes. We love this: Everyone should have a personalized drink!

CLTW: WHAT ARE SOME OF THE SERVICES, AND EXPERIENCES YOU PROVIDE? TTH: We offer educational classes, beverage creation, wine pairing assistance, party planning, and home bar makeovers. Whether you want to learn bartending basics, Pre-Prohibition cocktails, or how to taste wine, we provide educational classes at levels from novice to aficionado. We create cocktail and wine menus to match any party theme. We will guide you into stocking the home bar of your dreams so you can entertain like a professional mixologist and sommelier.

CLTW: IS THERE A TREND TOWARDS INCORPORATING LITTLE TO NO ALCOHOL DRINKS INTO GATHERINGS AND PARTIES? TTH: There is a trend of no-and-low beverages being more accessible at restaurants, bars, and parties. We love this trend. Individuals who choose not to drink (or want to limit consumption) shouldn’t be limited to Shirley Temples or club soda. They deserve quality beverages that are every bit as sophisticated as craft cocktails. Recently, a lot of non-alcoholic alternatives have come to market … The possibilities are endless when it comes to no-and-low beverages.

“Whether we’re making his-and-her cocktails for a wedding or pairing wines for dinner parties, there was a demand for our liquid talents.” – Shen Reyna CONTINUED > OCTOB ER 2 0 2 2 | C I TYL I FE STYL E . C OM/TR O P HY W E ST

Witches' Brew

LOCA L LIM E LIGH T | FOOD + BE VE RAGE

Candy Apple Spritz

In honor of All-Hallows Eve, Shen and John generously provided several cocktail recipes to enjoy. Two of the cocktails are Teakwood Tavern originals – including a non-alcoholic cocktail – and the third is a classic cocktail that fits Halloween perfectly. Cheers from Teakwood Tavern Hospitality!

WITCHES’ BREW A quick internet search will provide a lot of recipes for Witches’ Brew, but most of them are awful sugary messes. Not here. This cocktail is delicious just like this, but adding egg white takes the drink to a whole other level. The egg white creates a richness in the mouth and balances the tartness and sweetness of the other ingredients. Serve this magical brew at your Halloween party, and your guests will be so delighted they won’t care whether you’re a good or bad witch. • 1.25 oz Midori Melon Liqueur • 1 oz blanco tequila • 0.75 oz fresh lime juice (strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove pulp) • 1 egg white Combine ingredients in a cocktail shaker. DO NOT ADD ICE YET. Perform a dry shake: close the shaker without ice and shake vigorously for 10 seconds. After the dry shake, open the shaker, add ice, and shake again for 15 seconds. Strain the drink through a fine mesh strainer into a coupe glass. The foam will sit at the bottom of the shaker so be patient when pouring into the glass.

CANDY APPLE SPRITZ The Candy Apple Spritz reimagines an iconic Halloween treat as a sparkly cocktail that still embodies a candy apple’s flavor profile and bold color. Fresh lemon and sparkling apple cider brighten the Candy Apple Spritz to rid your October 31 of evil spirits. • 1.5 oz Apple Brandy (We use Laird’s Applejack) • .75 oz fresh lemon juice (strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove pulp) • .75 grenadine (Homemade - recipe below) • 4 dashes of Peychaud’s bitters • 3 oz Sparkling Apple Cider (We use Martinelli’s) Combine all the ingredients except the sparkling cider in a cocktail shaker. Fill with ice. Close the shaker and shake for 15 seconds. Strain into Collins glass with ice. Pour sparkling cider over the top, add a straw, and stir. Garnish with an apple slice and cinnamon stick. Homemade Grenadine • 150g pomegranate juice • 150g white sugar • 1 cinnamon stick • 1 teaspoon vanilla Combine all ingredients in a saucepan on medium-low heat. Heat just until the sugar dissolves, stirring regularly. Do not let your grenadine boil. Once cooled, remove the cinnamon stick and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks. This recipe makes approximately 9 ounces. CONTINUED > OCTOB ER 2 0 2 2 | C I TYL I FE STYL E . C OM/TR O P HY W E ST

The Great Pumpkin (non-alcoholic)

LOCA L LIM E LIGH T | FOOD + BE VE RAGE

THE GREAT PUMPKIN (NON-ALCOHOLIC COCKTAIL) This drink is a perfect example of how zero-proof cocktails can be as sophisticated and delicious, if not more so, than alcoholic cocktails. Dhōs Orange Liqueur is a delightful non-alcoholic orange liqueur that you can buy online or find in specialty stores. Carrot juice brings the pumpkin color and pairs beautifully with oranges. The fresh lemon juice and a pinch of cayenne brighten up the drink. This zero-proof cocktail will scare away the haters who think real cocktails require alcohol.

• 2.5 oz Dhōs Orange Non-alcoholic Liqueur • 1.5 oz carrot juice (we use Bolthouse Farms organic) • 0.75 fresh lemon juice (strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove pulp) • Pinch of cayenne pepper (or more to taste) Place an ice sphere into a rocks glass, and set it aside. Combine ingredients in a cocktail shaker. Add ice. Close the shaker and shake for 15 seconds. Strain into the rocks glass. Garnish with celery stalk and cilantro. Cut small slits into the celery to hold the cilantro as it wraps around the celery.

“Individuals who choose not to drink (or want to limit consumption) shouldn’t be limited to Shirley Temples or club soda. They deserve quality beverages that are every bit as sophisticated as craft cocktails.” – Shen Reyna, Teakwood Tavern Hospitality LLC

For those who dream of having their own coffee shop, Texas Coffee School offers specialized training that is renowned worldwide. CONTINUED > OCTOB ER 2 0 2 2 | C I TYL I FE STYL E . C OM/TR O P HY W E ST

Tom Vincent, founder of Texas Coffee School, has helped hundreds of students open independent coffee shops globally.

LOCA L’S CH OICE | FOOD + BE VE RAGE

Texas Coffee School has some of the highest student reviews of any industry program. Students love the personalized attention and fun teaching methods.

Home enthusiasts enroll in classes to learn more about equipment and how to use it before investing in a set up at home, Vincent says.

Texas Coffee School – founded in 2010 – specializes in helping people open independent specialty coffee shop businesses. It also offers several classes for home enthusiasts if you’ve dreamed of creating specialty coffee drinks at home to wow your family and friends. City Lifestyle Trophy West recently connected with Tom Vincent, the owner of Texas Coffee School. Here’s what Vincent had to say about coffee trends, who would be a good fit for his coffee classes, and offered some good brewing tips to keep in mind for your next cup of joe.

ON COFFEE TRENDS HE IS SEEING: • Coffee to go. • From hot beverages to cold beverages, more young people are interested in cold than hot. • Cold brew, nitro cold brew, and other modern and creative cold beverages are extremely popular. We asked Vincent who would be a good student for Texas Coffee School’s two-day Barista, Espresso & Milks Class and Quality Brewing. “It’s usually a person who has a home espresso machine or some cool home-brewing gear who feels like they have plateaued

Tom Vincent is happy to see most coffee shops offer good quality overall, which was not the case several years ago.

watching videos on YouTube. They want to get deeper down the rabbit hole of this really fun and exciting coffee hobby … our classes are a popular gift for people who are impossible to shop for! It is a super fun and immersive way to take their interest and passion to a level far beyond what they can read or watch online.”

COFFEE BREWING TIPS:

1. Buy freshly roasted coffee weekly instead of in large batches for the month. 2. Brew with water that is right in the 200-degree (Fahrenheit) range. 3. Stop using bottled water; it usually doesn’t have enough mineral content for the coffee to extract properly and taste good.

4. When buying coffee gear, spend more on the grinder since it plays one of the most important roles in ensuring your coffee doesn’t taste awful. Blade grinders are about as precise as a hammer would be. Get a burr grinder.

5. When buying an espresso machine for home, don’t go cheap; invest in a good machine upfront. Check out texascoffeeschool.com to learn more!
