Top bartender tip

"Incorporating fresh herbs like mint, basil, or rosemary can add a new dimension to your cocktails. Spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, or even black pepper can also create intriguing and complex flavors. Muddle the herbs gently to release their oils without turning them bitter, or infuse them into simple syrups."

A quick history lesson

A quick history lesson in Whiskey Whiskey, derived from the Gaelic term "uisce beatha" meaning "water of life," has been warming hearts since monks distilled it in Ireland and Scotland around the 15th century. Its popularity soared in the 18th century with American settlers crafting their own distinctive styles, like Bourbon. Whiskey's evolution hasn't just been in neat pours; it became a classic cocktail cornerstone in the 19th century, starring in timeless creations like the Old Fashioned and Whiskey Sour. Whether neat or mixed, whiskey's rich history and diverse flavor profile continue to inspire bartenders and enthusiasts alike.
