The Bloody Mary can be a work of art with a few hundred variables, but who’s gonna open a priceless can of Guinness to splash it into their morning goodness?
Try ramping up the amount of Worcestershire and celery salt, and give it a kick with a splash of pickle juice.

Side note- I used to sling at a “build your own” place.. Freakin’ Hilarious! Chef’s Salad in a glass, overflowing with fruits, veggies, eggs, half a dozen shrimp perched on top…
YOU!! You must teach them…

So THIS is a “blog” supposedly by a cool, professional bartender?

#1, I wouldn’t be attempting coolness by advertising the fact I’m a bartender.
#2, It sucks, and not only because the updates are over 4 months old.

Fake much?

Hey grindchop. What has happened, indeed? You should see my inbox. Nothing but brides wondering how much liquor they should have at their wedding receptions and frat boys asking how to make a SoCo Lime shot. (Hint: it’s got Southern Comfort and Rose’s Lime Juice.) Yes, I even still get questions about the expiration dates of alcohol.

I answered these questions for a while but decided that it’s hardly a good use of my talents.

Working on a new design for a new site, one that, I hope, will attract the kinds of questions I like. Meanwhile, however, you got something on your mind? I’m all ears.

This is tough… I could make a good argument for just about all of these answers, especially Good Boy’s, Celm’s, Meningitis’, Noodle’s, Felicity’s, Flum’s and Independent’s. I’m nevertheless gonna declare Kevin Too’s “Ketchup” as the definitive answer — or at least the one Charles Nelson Reilly mighta said.
