Boozy Bee Books and Cocktails
Welcome to Boozy Bee Books & Cocktails 🍸🐝
Where great stories meet great sips — and everyone’s invited to pull up a seat at the bar.
I’m Dana, your book-loving, cocktail-shaking reading influencer.
Here we talk honestly about the books we read, the drinks we make, and the life we’re living — with warmth, humor, and a dash of midlife magic.
If you love:
✨ book reviews with personality
✨ cocktails (or mocktails!) that match the vibe
✨ authentic conversations
✨ feeling part of a cozy, welcoming community
…you’ll fit right in here.
New episodes every Wednesday at 3 PM, plus Shorts, cocktail moments, and behind-the-scenes from the Boozy Bee bar.
Real Reads. Real Drinks. Real Talk.
Pull up a stool — let’s sip and flip together. 🍷📚
