This week on the District 3 Podcast, Irvin, Miggs, and Elena sit down with Northwest Arkansas’ newest resident — and VinePair’s Best New Bartender of 2025 — the incredible new Beverage Director at Yeyo’s Mexican Restaurant, Daniela Pedraza. We dive into her journey from Missouri to NWA, the roots of her passion for drink alchemy, and what it’s been like stepping into the region’s vibrant culinary scene.
Things get extra fun as she tries to guess the hosts’ favorite drinks, shares behind-the-bar stories, and everyone loosens up for some classic, unfiltered District 3 energy. If you’re into great conversations, great drinks, and a whole lot of laughs, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
