Ive worked at some hefty Michelin starred restaurants on the West Coast. Inventing cocktails on the fly is commonly a way youll be tested by top end bars to see if youre qualified to be there. Top cocktail programs will have an incredible list to choose from but the top mixologists can ask you about flavor profiles and put something delicious together on the fly. (None of my bars had blueberry vodka nor would i use it if they did) but that girls got a good bartender in her, she just needs to learn proportions

[@pikestance8851]

It is like cooking. Two people can use the exact same seasoning, but one will taste like heaven while the other is like shit. It is all in the chemistry.

[@pallasa]

I agree 100% but the Blueberry vodka disrespect😭... I love it so much (Stoli is best) with sparkling water and fresh lemon wedges

[@theragingrodent__]

Yeah she needs some training in technique but she's friendly enough and has enough interest in being good at her job to be really successful.

[@Zug98]

Hey stoli blueberry makes a killer lemon drop martini :)

[@donnahaynes138]

"Do they call it 'The Trashcan'? 'Cause that's where you end up puking after drinking this."

That was being served in Hemet. I’m surprised the Cali ABC wasn’t upset about that thing. They did good switching to an orange soda based drink. 🍹

[@ConnorMiller417]

The whole part of having a “specialty drink”, is to make it “special” in a good way. Not in a way that it will make your customers want to vomit.

[@VoidHearted]

Some of these aren’t even specialized, it’s just jungle juice. Especially that trash can one

[@The_Not_So_Great_Cornholio]

A local bar that went out during covid used to have a list of great specialty drinks. One of them was a Bee's Knees, which instantly turned into my favorite drink. Despite being incredibly simple and 100 years old, no one else knows how to make it for some reason.

[@annoyedkitten4964]

Bee's Knees is my favorite gin drink. I've never seen it on a bar menu either, I make them at home.

[@STamagni99]

“I’ve never seen anything like this before” “this is the most disgusting kitchen I’ve ever seen” 2 phrases your guaranteed to hear every episode

After watching this new Bar Rescue video, I will never buy these drinks in bars. For me, I will just buy some sodas to drink. Why? Because they taste better than alcoholic drinks that makes people go drunk and causes them to feel sick. Thank you Bar Rescue for teaching us to never ever buy alcohol drinks again. : )

[@caseymacmacl7463]

The worst drink I ever had was the first Martini I ever tried. It tasted like hairspray! It was disgusting. As a teen in the 80s with bangs that defied gravity, I was very familiar with the taste of hairspray and this was just horrid. Almost 40 years later I still have not tried another Martini because the first one was sooo bad.

I love Jon but no, you cant tell if a mojito is right by color. Its gonna look vastly different depending on the type of sugar you use. White sugar and youll get the green from the mint and lime, but if youre using a raw demerera sugar its gonna be muddy and dark

[@Tennisisreallyfun]

I mean, I’ve taste tested for bartenders before, trying drinks they haven’t given to any member of the public before where I gave them some feedback after, and I’ve tried drinks that bartenders have literally made up on the spot. The difference is that these are experienced bartenders at high end bars. These guys know their stuff, so you can trust them to create, on the spot, something good😉

[@Evocati-Augusti]

Ive managed nice restaurants on Long Island but never drank, starting busing/barbacking at age 12 , I remember trying a Dr. Pepper the original way, dropping a shot of amaretto liqueur in a beer mug, and its amazing that you don't taste the alcohol and it just tastes like a real Dr.Pepper..

Some of those drinks looked bad. Some like those shots in 1 were irresponsible.
