Hey everybody, it's Kate Snow. I am so excited for our latest episode of The Drink,

my series, all about how folks got to the top of their field. I sat down with author,

screenwriter, and showrunner extraordinaire, Jenny Hahn, who created the hit series,

The Summer I Turn Pretty, and to all the boys I've loved before.

We talked over peach iced tea at the restaurant Lodi in New York City, although she swears that her

drink choice was not an Easter egg for all you fans of her work. Anyway, we cover everything from

her childhood growing up in rural Virginia to her push for diversity in Hollywood.

And of course, what fans can expect from the very last season of the summer I Turn Pretty.

It's out now on Amazon Prime.

As always, you can watch all of our episodes online, too, at NBCNews.com slash the drink.

All right, Jenny Hahn, author, screenwriter, showrunner, all the things.

We're in Lodi, in New York City, in Manhattan.

What do we got?

Cheers.

Cheers.

What's your drink?

Peach iced tea.

Okay.

Refreshing.

Let's see. Mm. Oh, I like the Peach iced tea. Okay. Refreshing, let's see. Mm-hmm.

Oh, I like the hint of peach.

Nice.
