Meet Ana Mendoza: Live Like Locals Ambassador
Bringing Joy, Connection, and Community Spirit
We’re thrilled to shine the spotlight on Ana Mendoza, a proud military spouse, dedicated business owner, and the creative force behind Spicy Ginger Mobile Bar. Ana brings heart, hospitality, and an unmistakable spark to everything she does, making her a perfect fit for our growing Live Like Locals Ambassador family.
From Texas to Georgia: A Journey Rooted in Family and Hospitality
Originally from Texas, Ana and her family recently made the big move to Georgia, where she has poured her passion into building a business that brings people together. As the owner of Spicy Ginger Mobile Bar, Ana has quickly become known for more than her cocktails. She has built a reputation for warmth, creativity, and the kind of genuine hospitality that makes every guest feel like family.
Whether she’s crafting a signature drink or setting the perfect vibe for an event, Ana leads with intention: create memorable experiences, foster connection, and leave people smiling long after the party ends.
Spicy Ginger Mobile Bar: Where Every Pour Tells a Story
Ana is one half of the powerhouse duo behind Spicy Ginger Mobile Bar. Alongside her partner in crime and co-founder, Kriston R. Watkins, Ana brings joy, connection, and unforgettable hospitality to events all across the Coastal Empire. Spicy Ginger Mobile Bar serves weddings, corporate events, festivals, and private celebrations across the Coastal Empire, offering a luxury bartending experience that blends professionalism with fun.
Her attention to detail, warm presence, and ability to read a room make her events feel effortless and elevated all at once. For Ana, bartending is not just about mixing drinks. It is about creating space for people to celebrate, connect, and feel cared for.
Life Beyond the Bar
When she’s not shaking up a crowd-pleasing cocktail, Ana is all about family, fun, and exploring new experiences. She loves traveling, enjoying all things Disney, and spending quality time with the people she loves most.
A lifelong sports enthusiast, Ana enjoys playing volleyball, cheering on football games, and supporting the Effingham Elite Volleyball team. She is also a passionate advocate for mental health and self-care, believing that showing up for yourself is the first step to showing up for others.
Why We’re Excited to Have Ana as a Live Like Locals Ambassador
For Ana, joining Live Like Locals wasn’t just about visibility. It was about belonging. She believes in positivity, growth, and supporting the people around her — values that align perfectly with our mission.
As an Ambassador, she is excited to shine a light on local businesses, build lasting relationships, and help create the community she wants her family to grow within. She is ready to share her story, celebrate others, and continue spreading joy one conversation (and one cocktail) at a time.
We are so grateful to welcome Ana into our Ambassador family. She brings heart, hustle, and a contagious love for people — and Savannah is lucky to have her.
