    The Person Turning Ramen Into Cocktails (And It's Actually Delicious) and Viral Recipes: Jae Bae

    Send us Fan Mail  Could your favorite bowl of ramen become your new favorite cocktail? In this episode, we sit down with the mind behind the innovative cocktail trends: Jae Bae, a New York-based recipe developer and content creator. Driven by pure curiosity, Jae has captivated audiences by turning beloved soups and comfort foods into stunning cocktails. But behind the viral ramen cocktails is a deep and profound respect for the art of bartending. From his New York apartment, armed with just a phone and natural light, Jae developed a visually stunning brand around a novel concept: cocktails inspired by global comfort foods. We dive into his creative process, discussing how he balances the complex, savory flavors of dishes  and translates them into a balanced, sippable format. In this conversation, we explore the philosophy of a true innovator. Jae reveals how his background in both healthcare and hospitality forged his unique approach—one that combines meticulous care with boundless creativity. We discuss why his goal isn't to replace the bar experience, but to ignite curiosity and inspire guests to explore the incredible craft happening at their local spots. This is a story about how to a look at wild creativity, balanced with a genuine love for the craft, and a masterclass in using a platform to celebrate the world of hospitality.
