Good Tuesday to all of you! Hope you got enough sleep after staying up to watch the College Championship Game last night, where my Ohio State team won. I will admit, I was unable to even watch one play last night due to not being up to par. But, it sure was good to wake […]

For some of us, Christmas Day was just the beginning of a week’s worth of holiday cheer. With the New Year just a week away, bartenders like myself have been busy doing the holiday thing for the last few weeks now. We are now in the final stretch. Honestly, I am looking forward to a nice relaxing […]

Good Happy Morning to all of you! I was quite shocked to wake up this morning to six inches of fresh snow. All I want to do today is sit around and just look out the window to watch the snow fall. But, alas, I have to get going and drive in this stuff this […]

Come on, admit it, we are all junk food junkies from time to time. My weakness is and always will be peanut butter cups. When ever I get that chocolate craving, I always go to the nearest convenient store to pick up a pack of these. The peanut butter/chocolate combination is the bomb! No need […]

Last year, this band from Dublin, Ireland stopped by my bar on their way to a gig in Columbus, OH and I had the opportunity to serve them some cocktails. Since I was rather slow this particular evening I was able to talk with them and hang out, so I was able to experiment and […]

One great thing about making cocktails is that anything goes. You should look at each of the bottles of your liquor cabinet as individual ingredients that you can create your favorite beverages for your next party, just like you would when you are making any food dish with the ingredients you have in your kitchen […]

The Stimulator is January 26th Drink of the Day!!

Talk about a contradiction! This cocktail is named wrong. It should be called the “One-Two Punch”. The combination of five liqueurs with the addition of cream will have you in a pleasant, possibly sleepy, frame of mind once you enjoy one. You may want to save a little room in your belly after dinner to […]

This is somewhat of an emotional day for me today. The video for this drink will be the last one I will have from the Holiday Inn Akron West. I want to thank them very much for supporting my cause for the past couple years. We are moving our videos to the new Jilly’s Music […]

I am sitting here, listening to the rain coming down hard, not wanting to do anything but relax and slip into a semi-coma. This drink came to mind and I had to make one, so I could get into the mood of doing nothing. As I am getting to this point, I felt I better […]

Another name for this cocktail is the Nuts n’ Berries, but this is what it was named when I learned how to make it. A very tasty drink that tastes like you are eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. A perfect treat for the middle of a Saturday afternoon. This is a combination of […]
