Down n' Dirty

ET (aka Eric Tecosky even though no one calls him that) wants to talk olive brine! The founder of Dirty Sue talks about his early days as a bartender (and even earlier days as a screenwriter), the lightbulb moment of offering olive brine in a bottle, and how he shifted from bartender to a dirt, salty, entrepreneur! Plus, Greg and Sother saw each other in three dimensions! What a time to be alive. And, congratulations to Krysia Rodak, winner of our Blueberry Mojito recipe contest! Get in touch to claim your prize!
