Slightly Pretentious

Great Cocktails. Spectacular Stays. Only Slightly Pretentious.

Thanks!

Cheers to you! Thank you so much for signing up for our cocktail newsletter! I promise not to let you down 🙂

Or at least I promise to try not to let you down. I’ll let you be the judge.

In the meantime here are some things I recommend doing:

1) Follow me on Instagram. This is where I document my bar travels and cocktail experiments.

2)  Take a look at my favorite cocktail books. I’ve personally read through every single one of these, and I think having a couple of these is one of the absolute best ways to start making better drinks, and learn more about the process.

3) Go make a drink! Here are a few of my favorite non-standard drinks:

  • Smoking Banana
  • Artsy Bird
  • Smokescreen

4 Say Hi! Shoot me a note on Twitter with one thing you’d like to see on the site. I’d love to hear from you!
