Hi! I’m Bob! I’m no bartender. I just drink like I have homework.
If it’s got bourbon in it, I’m probably interested. If I have a great cocktail somewhere, I’m probably going to try making it at home.
Sometimes that means recreating a restaurant drink. Sometimes it means digging through a 1930 cocktail book. And sometimes I stare at the bottles in my bar until a questionable idea occurs to me.
Not everything works.
You mostly get the ones that do.
