Strictly for the bartenders - Tiki Drinks and Food

RA Registered Astronaut Member Joined: Mar 05, 2006 Posts: 66	RA Registered Astronaut Posted posted on Sun, Mar 23, 2008 6:19 PM I'm about to begin a training/trial period in a high volume service bar. I've bartended before, but mostly lunch shifts and private parties with fixed cocktail menus. I am wondering if any bartenders/ ex-bartenders can lend me some advice as far as working in a high volume, run-and-gun type service bar. I can already tell using my jigger is gonna be frowned on, though I am optimistic about the opportunity and finally being able to apply my experience in tropical drink expertise to the "real world." Any suggestions on multi tasking, blender drinks, and making shooters. We have a pool and in the summer it's gonna be a lot of blender drinks. We only have two blenders. Load me up with know how.
