Many of us might think being a bartender is a walk in the park. In order for a bar to succeed, you will need to have the basic wines, liquors, and spirits, along with the right equipment.
To be a great bartender, you have got to not only know how to make some of the most popular drinks out there, you will also need to know how to make some of the not so popular drinks, for those who enjoy them. Keeping bar staff happy might turn into a nightmare, but you have to do your best. Remember customers names and welcome them, using their names, the next time they visit.
The next step is to know your menu and learn how to mix the drinks by heart. Flair bartending involves very impressive and difficult techniques and tricks. And as some of you may know, you could be tasked with remembering multiple orders.
Do not believe the myth that bartenders need to know hundreds of recipes. Bottom line it takes class, style, patiences and an excellent attitude.
