Daddy-O’s Martinis craft cocktail mobile bartending service was founded in 2008 by John Apodaca. Being the grandson of a bootlegger from Albuquerque, New Mexico, who made his own whiskey, beer, and wine, you might say working with classic spirits runs in John’s blood. Involved in the swing dance scene in Los Angeles since the swing resurgence back […]
Remember making a paper plane in school and throwing it in class when the teacher wasn’t looking. That was fun but the cocktail is so much better and tastes excellent. I can not take credit for this libation but it was invented by Sam Ross while listening to the group M.I.A.’s song Paper Plane. Paper […]
If you haven’t had the opportunity to try one of Americas oldest cocktails the Sazerac will do with it’s origins dating back to pre-Civil War New Orleans Louisiana. The original recipe is a combination of Cognac and bitters invented by Antoine Amédée Peycaude in the 1830s and was considered medicinal at the time. Since it’s […]
This drink is a cousin of the traditional mint julep but with a bit of the bubbly to add flavor and make it more of a celebratory cocktail for weddings, birthdays, new years and other occasions. Just as with cooking, the quality of ingredients used can either make or break a drink. I strongly recommend […]

It was an idea of Matt Parkinson of Viand Bar & Kitchen in Chicago because the establishment was using gingerbread syrup for some of its coffee drinks. […]
Being a man who loves whiskey and rye, I found this gem of a drink that can be enjoyed in the summer or any season. The summer rye is a cocktail made with rye whiskey, simple syrup, fresh apple cider, Champagne and one of my favorite liqueurs St-Germain. Bartenders refer to this liqueur as bartenders Ketchup […]
The Enlightenment Cocktail is either “the thinking man’s drink,” or “the poor mans champagne cocktail.” I can’t claim this drink as my own but I have drank it on several occasions and introduced it to my friends and they love it. This wonderful concoction was invented by Aidan Demarest while at the Edison in downtown […]
The Kentucky Derby has been a tradition in Louisville Kentucky since 1875 at Churchill Downs and many spectators will be flocking to the races to pick a hopeful thoroughbred winner. Some of the traditions that surround the races are women dressed in fine outfits lavishly accessorized with large elaborate hats. Horses being paraded around the grandstands, […]
When I was a kid, during the dog days of summer, one thing that helped cool me down was a snow cone. As an adult, I love drinks with crushed ice, such as the Whiskey Cobbler that contain pieces of muddled fresh fruit along with whiskey and Curacao. One can enjoy how the flavors blend […]
