Sarah Stevens moved to Hawai’i in 2016 with the intention of only living here for one year. In her mind, she was a nomad and would never feel at home anywhere. Needless to say, Hawai’i changed all of that.

As an avid hiker and lover of nature, she proceeded to hike thousands of miles in the Ko’olau mountains, and a good amount of the Waianae range as well. As a bartender newly interested in craft cocktail creation, and having the curiosity about wild edible plants instilled in her at a young age, she started wondering about all the fascinating new vegetation she was seeing, and how she could use them in my craft. Soon after, the idea of Foraging for Cocktails was born.
