In this episode of Creative Culture, I talked to mixologist and professional bartender Leandro Di Monriva @TheEducatedBarfly about the art of mixing cocktails and what it takes to be a bartender. We chatted about everything from things that annoy bartenders to the tools of the trade. And if you've been thinking about setting up your own home bar, Leandro shares his tips, including the spirts you'll want to have on hand, the tools you'll need, and the types of glassware.
And yes, we learn if James Bond was correct in ordering a martini "shaken, not stirred" or if that's nonsense!
