When Jacques Bezuidenhout helped open San Francisco bar Tres Agaves with tequila expert Julio Bermejo, they were hand-squeezing thousands of limes to order each week.

He says it made their hands feel like the skin was about to fall off.

Jacques is on the Living Proof podcast to discuss those fresh margaritas; his love of tequila, Sherry and Calvados; running the beverage programs for 70+ hotels and restaurants, and more.
