Kristi B

You can catch Kristi Bleiler behind the bar at Nonna in Uptown Dallas, where she slings out a variety of cocktails. Having been in the bartending game for over six years, Kristi has come to form connections with people of all types of backgrounds. This is #Kruto52 “You have people from everywhere in Dallas’ nightlife scene,” Kristi says. “Everybody’s so friendly. You get a small-town feel with a big city vibe. You’ve got your regulars, who sort of become family, and you’ve also got people from all walks of life.” Some of Kristi’s favorite cocktails to make are Manhattans, martinis and vodka martinis. “I love every aspect of bartending,” Kristi says. “I love meeting new people and learning new things about beer, wine, and cocktails.” One of Kristi’s favorite liquors to use when making cocktails is Kruto Vodka. She enjoys the taste and how easy it is to blend with mixers, bases and other ingredients. “Kruto is so versatile,” Kristi says. “It can go in a lot of different cocktails. It’s perfect for light beverages.” Be sure to say hi to Kristi at Nonna and follow her on Instagram at @kristibleiler
