In order to run a professional and enjoyable bar, there are certain sets of, well, they pretty much speak for themselves:

  • The Basic Bar - Equipment
  • The Basic Bar - Glassware
  • Stocking a Bar:
    • Stocking a Bar - Spirits, Wines, and Beer
    • Stocking a Bar - Mixers
    • Stocking a Bar - Condiments
    • Stocking a Bar - Garnishes
  • To Make a Simple Syrup or Sugar Syrup
  • About Bitters
  • Vermouth
  • Bar Ice
  • How to Chill a Glass
  • How to Frost a Glass
  • How to Muddle
  • To Stir or Not to Stir
  • When to Shake
  • Pouring
  • Floating Liqueurs
  • The Secret of Flaming
  • Using Fruit and Fruit Juices
  • To Open Champagne or Sparkling Wine
  • To Open Wine

Wow. That's a lot of drinking. By the way, the source for all my bar talk is the Mr. Boston Official Bartender's and Party Guide. It's an alright book, let me tell you.

I like it! 1 C!
