Candice Miller—founder of Mama & Tata—answered Modern Luxury's questions all about her favorite spots in the Hamptons, her go-to summer cocktail and more.
Tutto Il Giorno in Sag Harbor is number one and Leon 1909 is the second.
Favorite nightlife spot?
I don't really do nightlife, but if I'm going to, I'm going to go for a live concert at the Surf Lodge.
Favorite daytime activity?
I love to go paddleboarding in Shelter Island.
Favorite clothing store?
Chanel, East Hampton.
Favorite workout?
Tracy Anderson Method forever.
Best kept secret or hidden gem?
I have two. The Beauty Sandwich in Watermill and Ludmila at Knockout Beauty Bridgehampton for facials.
Go-to summer cocktail?
Passion fruit margaritas.
Go-to coffee order?
I don't drink coffee so I'm a chai latte girl. Oat milk.
Go-to order?
I love lobster rolls and corn on the side.
Go-to summer uniform?
Eres bikinis always, the Row flats and typically a Miu Miu coverup.
Go-to summer recipe?
I love a good fresh red cherry salad with some pumpkin seeds and a balsamic vinaigrette.
Poolside or beachside?
I'm neither poolside or beachside, I'm dockside. I love being on the water.
Best Hamptons memory?
My favorite Hamptons memories are going on the boat with my whole family and all my closest friends on July Fourth to see the fireworks and have dinner and a little party.
Three summer beach/pool essentials?
The Beauty Sandwich Secret Sauce is always in my bag so that's number one. My Dior sunglasses—they are cat-eyed and my favorite favorite—and my Prada beach tote.
