one of the best things you can do is to get a good cocktail book and really 
study it. i recommend The Craft of the Cocktail. learn to make drinks the 
right way with good ingredients and by caring. because you are probably to 
young to tend bar (depends on your state) i would get a job in a restaurant or 
bar doing anything. Plenty of bars will hire you as a barback especially with 
the summer coming up. find a great bartender wherever you work and really 
study this person as well. learn and model yourself after them. ask them to 
show you the basics. learn a little at a time in the real world and take what 
you get from school and combine the two. i'm sure you'll be a successful bar 
owner. i have some more advice on my blog
