If you haven’t visited her charming downtown shop yet, 417 Cocktails is a one-stop destination for beautifully curated cocktail kits, bar tools, syrups, glassware, and everything you need to craft the perfect drink at home. In this episode, Mandi shares the inspiration behind launching her business, why she took the leap into entrepreneurship, and what ultimately led her to open a brick-and-mortar location in the heart of downtown Springfield. She also opens up about the behind-the-scenes challenges—like navigating supply-chain issues, rising tariffs, and sourcing those signature boxes her kits come in—and why she works so hard to buy her supplies locally to support fellow small businesses. Listeners will walk away with a deeper appreciation for the courage it takes to open and maintain a small business, the realities of building something from the ground up, and the heart behind keeping our dollars in our community. And with the holidays just around the corner, this episode is the perfect reminder to explore and support the unique, eclectic shops that make our area so special—starting with 417 Cocktails, where you’ll find gift ideas galore.
