![CONFIDENCE
Bartenders are confident.
But, they don’t become so overnight.
When I was a teenager, my brother was studying to become a bartender. I quizzed him on the well-known and often complicated cocktails, just so he could flex while training at his bar. Over 15 years later, he’s the best bartender I know.
So, when it was my turn to “become” a bartender for the evening, I became a ball of nerves. Like a little kid, asked to recite her abc’s in front of staring adults. 😓
Yet, taking this Be A Bartender Cocktail class with Giannis from @oz_cocktail_bar courtesy of @aliostours, I understood what it meant to be confident in your craft.
Giannis, several times, taught me how to fill the shaker with ice. How to pour a drink, in an effortless manner. I leaned over Giannis’ shoulder and watched as he showed me magic (aka mastic on Chios Island). 😉
During my turn, I timidly grabbed the shaker. Heart pounding and hands shaking, I mimicked Giannis, looking back at him for approval.
After a few minutes of practice, I grew more confident. I placed my hands on the shaker a bit more intentional and shook what my mama gave me.
For 90 minutes, I was the center of attention. The conductor to the cocktail orchestra, while my audience watched me go from mixing water to making a mastic cocktail.
I’m reminded that:
Confidence is a matter of repetition and patience.
So my hump day message to you is: Keep mastering and mixing.
