单集简介 ...

Making cocktails isn't just about flair - bottles spinning through the air as the bartender puts on a show. It's about precision, perfectionism and people skills. Ruth Alexander meets three world-class bartenders to hear stories about their most glamorous customers, the dangerous ones, and what it takes to make the perfect drink. Hear about the highs and lows; from the glamour of working on a movie set to the what happens when customers turn nasty. What's it like to make this challenging job your career? Plus of course: how to make the perfect martini! (The answer might surprise you!) Producers: Lexy O'Connor and Izzy Greenfield Sound Engineer: Andrew Mills Image description:
