Let me give you a little bit background before I continue. I work at a family owned restaurant which is great because it's laid back, the owners are great, and it doesn't have all of those franchise rules and write ups. I work very hard behind the bar, I'm on time, my customers and regulars love me and always compliment me, and I never every stand around because there is always someething to be done. ...

I hope you can point me in the right direction. I am looking to reduce the amount of liquid in the cocktail mix but still have the same potency. How would I do this?

I often find myself confronted with similar questions. With so many types and styles of glassware, keeping track of them all can be challenging. You seem like the type of guy who wants to go about equipping and stocking his home bar the "right" way. However, in my experience, when it comes to matters of the home bar, there is no "right" way. ...

You will also be losing customers, and probably your job. If you want to pickup girls go to another bar as a customer. A bartender needs to act professionally as do wait-staff.

There has been a trend to pair foods with mixed drinks but it is not very standardized. http://www.starchefs.com/features/trends/cocktail-pairing/html/index.shtml has a good article that states the cocktail is more likely to be developed especially for the dish rather than pairing with a mix already in in existence. cybersal http://www.webtender.com/iforum/message.cgi?id=86379 Mon, 16 Apr 2012 20:03:08 UTC General Discussion forum http://www.webtender.com/rss/go/message/86378 Bravo.

It is basically Kahlua. My question arises because it must sit for a month to allow the vanilla beans to blend. It calls for 2 cups boiling water, 2 of vodka, 4 of sugar and the beans.

Unfortunately, it's not always about the experience. I've seen people get bartending positions with little to no experience based on who they know. Definitely unfair, but true. With that said, try to frequent the bars/restaurants you want to work at, get to know the owner and staff...Put the word out that you are looking. I started out filling in for someone at first, which led to a perm. position...Good luck.
