So peaceful to watch. Yesterday I had at least 20 people around my bar consistently and what felt like a million tickets building up while working solo. Don't know why I was scheduled solo on my 2nd week bartending lol. Had a blast though :)
take it easy. my first 2 months as bartender was a nightmare. after 1 year, 20 tickets in 10mins makes your night funny
welcome to the industry :)
I’m starting cocktail professional course tomorrow 😅 I might end up working in a bar soon
@@belle3055 I wish you luck! Don't stress!
@@hikobeats847 hii, i just finish my professional course and close to set a deal to work on a club, did u have any tips or something who helps u in your first nights of work? i'm actually dying inside hahah
I love how you label each drink you’re make. Keep up the good work.
Its a local bar in a fairly upscaled neighborhood. Drink and technique wise, this bartender is on a semi level but super fun to see and very relaxing watching you work sir.
Yeah nice area with a lot of people that spend some good money on wine and food 🍷
chill vid, bartending seems kinda fun if ur at a nice place
It’s a spectrum depending.
@@kevinfager. What do you mean?
@@Eggdadit means that your experience will varie immensely depending of your area and the type of bar itself, me personally I hate the typically sports bar for example.
I’ve worked in a rough pub and it was insanely fun but absolute carnage at times
I wish I had one of those star glass rinsers that they have in many bars in my kitchen. Seems so easy and more efficient than washing the glass regularly.
That the new modern innovation in home use also got a cafe. What it does it shoot out high-pressure water called "Hydrojet" water 💦.
So strong it removes strong stubborn stains and in a matter of seconds. Makes your life easier
Love the videos, great seeing all of the processes and how amazingly you create all of the drinks! But gotta say major props to you as well, I don’t know how you can remember all the recipes let alone where everything is while doing all the prep work and making it all perfectly! 😊
So helpful. Looking forward to getting started
Bro that’s so cool and your delicate skills are top-notch. Keep it up!
Currently a barback, working my way up to bartender, and this was very peaceful to watch.
the window looks like a tv screen. such beautiful colors outside
Ooooohhh…Peller Estates makes some mighty fine wine. I love living in Niagara…so many great wineries!

They could be maraschino cherries, but they could also be bourbon cherries.
Cocoa nibs on the chocolate orange Negroni - nice touch!
thank you for helping me.
This is satisfying
I do like the fact that a lot of your bartending is very parallel with the majority of what people do bartending and not to formal and Boujee… but I do have one critique and that is how have you bartended for this long and especially for rich clientele by getting away with cupping your hand around the top of a glass and letting the ice hit your hand in order to funnel it into the glass and also grabbing straws from the top where people put their mouth…? besides those two things which are a pretty big deal I really did enjoy your videos and I like your movement behind the bar.
You have two coworkers watching you.... Are they waiting for you to mess up😂
WOAH WAIT THAT CARAF MY DUDE
Do you do anything to your Booker's box to prep it for service? Lacquer or whatever so it can withstand getting wet etc? It's a great idea and I love it and want to use it in my bar.
i love how you use your finger to rub off any excess garnish from the glass
i love being in a rush serving rich people
"rich, weathly clients" my brother in christ you're bartending at a sports bar & grill
Haha not quite, looks like a chill lounge but clients and food are causal rich
Looks nothing like a sports bar my guy
Tell me you're privileged without saying it🙄
The ratio detector test determined this comment...
Is true 😂😂😂😂
Do you have any Tokaji? Or louie the 13th? how about first growth bordeaux? I'd expect nothing less from a "rich" bar.
Yes sorry but the sprits used in the drinks were not high end, as such as where I work we reusing for a base drinks always well known brands. Vodka Martini should have a vermouth added otherwise is just a large vodka shot in a fancy glass. Still everything is clean the way you work so great job on that !!
Nice to watch the process of your drinks, here are some ways you could be even better than you already are...Get your glassware ready before you make your drink, that way, when you have lots of tickets come up, you won't ever get confused and it will help you to stay organized. For an old fashioned, put the sugar cube in first, then use either 5ml of hot water to dissolve the cube, or, use 5ml of soda water to dissolve the cube, and then add the bitters and bourbon/rye - sugar and alcohol don't like to dissolve with each other straight up. Rinse your mixing glass after each use, I see lots of bartenders leave their tins in the sink, but it makes them look sloppy, and if you get in the habit of resetting each time, it will ultimately make you faster in the long run. if you put speed pours on your cheater bottles and use nipples to seal them at the end of the shift, it will make you faster.
Bartending classifies as Art.
great job but remember no matter how experienced you are never poor or mix near or above your ice
Very nice bar man, just got into Bartending and would love to visit your place.
Looks Luxurious and Fun
is that vodka martini, just straight chilled vodka?
7:05 the way he stabbed the ice with pure anger haha
Keep those delicious Old Fashioned cocktails coming! It's a consistent favourite along with the Manhattan and the Negroni and so many more gorgeous drinks! The chocolate and orange Negroni looks delicious! Love, love, love the Roy Roy and the Vieux Carre!! Fabulous video of bartending!! Awesome ambiance! Great personality!! Cheers!! 🙂
Really?? I was interested to see what these expensive cocktails were until I saw him make an old fashioned with crushed ice. If that's an "expensive" cocktail I don't need to see the rest. smh....
the beer is not able to develop a proper head because the glassware is not adequately clean.
Cocktails under $20? That's basically happy hour in Manhattan, lol
Dang you pour those mini wine decanters fat!! Meanwhile my boss flips if I go above the shoulder of it. 😂...😢
I don't mean to criticize but at 9:11 you had stated the cocktail was a Vodka Martini. From what I saw you just poured Stoli Vodka into a mixing glass, chilled, and served up in a martini glass with three olives. I was expecting a splash or a small ratio of vermouth, unless the ticket you received stated, absolute dry served up. Correct me if I'm wrong of course.
I work in a bar that so few people want vermouth our standard is without and only added upon request. I would assume it’s the same situation here
I make my Vodka martinis 2.5oz spirit to .5oz Dry Vermouth unless specified 🤷🏻♂️. People who just want chilled vodka are psychos anyway 😂 Gin Martinis much much better
you need ice in the well for the soda gun to work properly... might as well get it at the well with ice.
Great job. Just wish the big cubes were clear. For the prices they charge they miss that one thing.
I like the movement and the quickness, I think you're doing alright. My only recommendation if I may is alway prep the glass first so the drink doesn't sit too much in the mixing glass, especially on a negroni or old fashioned. Other than that, really crisp. Keep up the good work
I was taught that when shaking and and stirring put the glass lastly so ice (cube or normal ice) doesnt melt while you stir or shake (if it was busy, like 7-8 cocktail at the same time then we had them usually ready). So pretty much the same as this bartender. Example that ice melts itself in mixing glass if you dont stir it too much before taking the glass. I usually did it that i didint stir at all when I prepped glass and did lemon peel while drink was in mixing glass and after that finished stirring so old fashoined/negroni/other drink doesnt go too watery :) so i guess its about the style and how you were taught. Most important is that its not too much stirred. Although i understand this style what you recommended also but i thought to give an idea why I did also it like this bartender :)
Sorry for my english its not my first language hope you understand this haha :D
Thanks for the tips!
I’m not a bartender so I was kinda flabbergasted at a lot of the things in this vid, the thing that was the most intriguing was the vacuum on the bar. Is it a vacuum? It sounded like it was sucking; I assume it is to suck whatever was out of the cup, but I could be totally off. Love the vid man!
It sprays water upwards when you push down on it to quickly rinse the inside of containers
Yoo man, quick question. U don't wash ur mixing glass after the Old Fashioned at 2:28. Is that on purpose or did you forgot it? Love your videos man. Helps me a lot with growing my bartender skills. Greetings from Amsterdam.
Pretty sure he is putting them off to the side to ethier be cleaned or reused for the same drink. To me it seems he is having a new glass for every drink
This was so interesting. Really enjoyed it.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice 🙂👍 sir
fyi: knocking that ice-cube back into the iceBin is prolly a health violation lol
You made that old fashioned with Evan, what are you talking about this is “expensive bartending for rich people”?
Gota have the cheaper well liquors there too
Bartender/server @ a sushi bar.
It's located in a fairly affluent suburb, so older upper-middle class people are pretty much my bread & butter.
What city was this. Looking by the streets outdoor it’s a beautiful area 😍😍
this is also bartending for regular clients, all the liquor and wine was just mediocre level products. just saying.
Maybe I'm wrong but in Vodka Martini I've not seen vermouth used. Right? Thank you
I noticed this too! Is it just straight vodka? Thats weird.
A classic vodka martini “should” have a very small amount of dry vermouth. Like .5 oz. Gin martinis call for way more. Like 1 oz. But Martinis are one of the most customizable cocktails and it all depends on what the guest wants!
@@jtroozy I agree with you but, when you write vodka-martini, you have to use also a white vermouth. Also when you male a "in&out" version you have to use white vermouth to "wash" the ice 😊
Some places only add it on request, due to it not being popular
i work in a country club in connecticut, so i feel your pain
9:20 vodka martini or only vodka ? x)
U do it as well after the Negroni around 06:00, so I guess it's on purpose? Can you explain me why?
bro if i was rich i wouldnt be spending shit ton of money on a cocktail u would just sit at home and just be lazy in my pj's and watch spongebob
what is the recipe for matcha dream? looks amazing
Which bar is this? I’m from BC and I recognize the wine lol
Thought this was the US based on the outside then heard him say aye a few times and knew it was Canada
It's either 1 or 3 olives. And I'll die on this hill.
id love to work in a place like that. but here in ireland its just damn near impossible to find somewhere like it
Move to Canada!!
Hi, great vid!
What GoPro are using for this?
Thanks! The GoPro Hero 9
True craft cocktail bartender here. A "chocolate orange Negroni" is not a Negroni. Kahlua. Smdh.
please put up sub titles for the ingredients in the cocktails, what what types of wines please
I hav tried it all
what music ? verry chill
If you poured anything over the ice and not the mat again I was gonna be screaming.
Hahaha
how do bartenders learn all these recipes? Is it all down to experience? Or is it that someone shows them and they remember?
You can always gauge a person by the kind of drink they prefer; the more complex the drink, the more likely I'm to stay as far away from their asses as humanly possible.
Where is the rush?
that ice is so sad :(
I just wanna drink until i die

Will help you drink fun drinks :)
what was the second drink the one from the sprayer
Probably a non alcoholic
I’m confused about matcha dream. Did you put soy sauce
Who orders an old fashioned made with Evan Williams? lmao
I can't believe a bar this nice is using EW as the well liquor to begin with. Then again, also didn't agree with the Negroni mix either, so maybe they just do weird things here.
@Pyrrho66 it's Canada haha maybe they're like that. You'd think they'd use Crown or something at least.
Every bartender pov I watch I see them shorting the alc so much. When u go to smaller less popular places they’ll load the alc to get u coming back. These places are scamming people
How much someone need to learn Bartender carrier?
great POV video, putting in work, very nice, but i didnt see no rich clients LOL....but yo, two pieces of fruit on a skewer irked me, odd numbers please, even number fruit on a drink is like letting a black cat walk across your bar, bad luck, no bueno....vodka martini made me laugh tho, one ingredient, stir with some ice, then in a glass, and two olives to curse your ancestors, serves you right for not ordering a real gin martini, rich-client-with-no-taste!
Please please please rinse your stirring glass 😢
Otherwise great video!
you should add on top of the screen the name of the cocktails you're doing and the recipes
Bro I was waiting when will you post the video
Thanks for watching bud :) hope you enjoyed the video
@@davidblake1 boss I need some mocktail recipe
@@nedlloydjohn6563 I’ll send you some
Old Fashioned….. expensive? Okay. […] but great work.
Still daylight out. What do you mean late night?
Why you dont wash your mixing glass? or at least rinse it!
So the Vodka martini is just vodka ???......I watched a few times don't see anything else added just the olives........🤣
Which cocktail you recommended for first timer i am sour tast lover
Bourbon sour or bee's knees would be easy start
Sidecar
@David Blake....did you used soy sauce in your Matcha Dream?
A free suggestion : don't put background music .
Instead let the original audio form the bar play ( i mean the sound of people talking , Sound of beer dispenser , putting ice things inside glass )
Make it more like a visual & audio ASMR.
To test the concept upload same video with background music & other one without any background music but with original audio
Why was your vodka martini just pure vodka? no vermouth?
It was extra extra dry
@@davidblake1 cannot believe someone would enjoy drinking that. But hey, i guess thats not always our job as bartenders. just give the people what they want lol
Yeah exactly lol..there just paying for cold vodka straight up! A lot of older people love it tho! 🍸
It’s disgusting but to each their own.
@@davidblake1 Extra dry doesnt mean no dry vermouth...
the negroni sure is complex
Was that soy sauce?!
Evan Williams in that Old Fashioned? Also that was the furthest thing from a Negroni. It might be delicious, but it's not a Negroni. This was hard to watch
bad way of using the strainer, with drops of rinse water spilling in the customer's glass or in the ice tray...
dont touch the tap to the glass, great way to contaminate it
pipe down abe
@@Shabla7 i bet you have never worked behind a bar
ok hermit
rich clients and old fashioned with evan williamss LAMO
Lots of regular folk come in there too
Kannst du mir bitte einen Cuba Libre machen? ☺
9:31 this, clearly, is not to James Bond
what do you define as "RICH"
@kimberlyperkins2505 haven’t posted yet, because please don’t be a stranger to remind me.
9:15 did you just serve a shot of vodka out of a martini glass and call it a vodka martini?
It's 3 am. Why am i binge watching bartender videos
Keep at it 🥂🔥
Not even clear cube ice. FAIL
please oh please stop using chrused ice with the mixing glass...the purpose of the mixing glass is to give the perfect dilution...it needs good quality cubes so you dont over dilute it
#freesdrumox
No problem rich or poor as long as they have money to pay for their drinks equal service ,,,?
9:20 ... the Vodka martini is just Vodka? no splash of vermouth?????
