Pearl District

Cocktail Bar

It’s where I go to get schooled. My drinks are very sort of normal, just good old plain drinks and they get really crazy. They break the mold. I try to make our drinks fit into the mold and all they do is just break the mold over and over and over again.

Justin used to work for me. I've watched him grow from a guy who was a good bartender and didn't really seem to care all that much about it, to somebody who is running one of the more innovative cocktail programs in the country. It's been a joy to watch.

My favorite quote on ice comes from Eric Alpern. He said ‘ice is the bartender's fire, that we use ice in the same way that a chef, a cook, would use heat.’ Brilliant! When I heard him say that I thought, of course, genius!

BECHEROVKA

Liqueur / Herbal

I like it's touch of a healthy dose of sweetness with a lot of spice. We use it in a drink called Kavalier and Clay, just like the book by Michael Chabon. It's tequila, Becherovka, lemon and pineapple gum syrup.
