"I don't love the term mixologist, it implies solely the execution of perfect drinks. The role of a bartender is more than making a great drink. Nobody wants to say I went home with the mixologist last night."
Bar Owner Zeb Stewart
Bar owner Zeb Stewart creates Williamsburg watering holes that aren't just neighborhood bars, but inviting drinking dens that go beyond the norm. Union Pool has remnants of its day as a pool and pest supply shop; Hotel Delmano transports you to a weathered Havana lounge; and bring your pack of Gauloises to throw on the bar while you sip pastis at French-inspired bistro, Cafe Colette.
We asked the creative vision behind Brooklyn's most stylized houses of imbibing to share a cocktail recipe and tell us where he goes to be a barfly.
