I have been fortunate enough to meet some great bartenders from around the world since I started this website a couple years ago.

The beginning of another work week for some, a third day off for the weekend for others. There are a fortunate few who are off today due to a man’s lifetime accomplishments as a civil rights leader. Though his life was cut short due to assassination, he was the needed voice in a segregated world […]

We are just in the bowels of winter and I am already done with it. Nothing like waking up every morning to frozen car doors and ice on the windows. I need a tropical reminder today; something that will get me away from the thought of the frigid days and even colder nights. I’ve got just […]

Happy Friday, everyone! Finally, after the first long work week after the holiday festivities and the first true cold front of winter, I am ready to have something a little more tropical when it comes to my choice of cocktail today.

I was kind of in the mood for something sweet to have as the Drink of the Day and found this tequila-based beverage. If you are looking for the flavor of liquor in your mixed drink, this is not going to be a favorite. However, if you want a sweet and fruit-filled quencher with benefits, […]

If you are into combination cocktails, ones that bring together different types of spirits to give you a flavor like no other, you will love this Drink of the Day. A word to the wise: Be sure to keep this to probably only one cocktail, because this is one that is not for the weak. […]

Here’s one that will be a great intro to the coming weekend. So good, in fact, that I am introducing it a day early. The secondary ingredients in this mixed beverage are many, but just enough to hide the bite of the tequila spirit; bringing out the best the blue agave liquor has to offer […]

After having a day either gouging yourself with food and preparing it, the last thing you want to do is prepare a cocktail that will take some time to make.

Tequila drinks are common in summertime cocktails. But, you never hear about them in dessert style drinks. Here’s one I think you will enjoy. The combination of agave and chocolate should be done more often. I think you will agree when you taste this cocktail for the first time. Plus, an added bonus - we […]

A creamy after-dinner cocktail sounds like a nice warmer-upper for the chill in the air. One using tequila as a base sounds even better. This will surely get you forgetting about the cold weather for a moment. Using Creme de Cacao to give it a chocolate edge and smoothing it out with a little grenadine […]
