S2 E48 Novio’s Radio | Hydrofoiled

Bob Cutler returns to the George Hale Ric Tyler Show for a summer-themed installment of Cocktails with Friends, featuring special guest Dr. David Cloutier of the Veazie Vet Clinic. Bob mixes a mocktail for George, explains the concept of a highball, and crafts a new concoction that earns its name on-air: “Hydrofoiled”, inspired by Dr. Cloutier’s early morning adventure on Pushaw Lake!

Key Topics

The Art of the Highball

Bob demystifies the highball—a drink that’s easy to build, low in alcohol, and ideal for long afternoons on the deck or by the grill.

Mocktails Matter

With non-drinkers in mind, Bob serves up a flavorful alcohol-free Paloma, showing that complex flavor doesn’t require booze.

Naming the Cocktail: Hydrofoiled

A spontaneous mix becomes a signature drink, with a name tied to Dr. Cloutier’s morning lake session and a nod to the drink’s light, buoyant finish.
