By BartenderOne | Published: July 22, 2019

‘Area 51’ has fascinated thousands and most likely millions of minds over the years. You’re probably wondering in what way could Bud Light beer be used in the same sentence as Area 51? A recent publicized Facebook event called “Storm Area 51, They Can’t Stop Us All”. got the attention of around 3 million people who said they were “interested”. The company behind Bud Light- Anheuser-Busch, first backed away with the idea of ‘invading’ Nevada Air Force base. However, a recent Twitter feed indicated that they would like to “offer free Bud Light to any alien that makes it out of the planned raid. Stay tuned for more information about this “raid”. In the meantime, why not learn how to bartend? You might just be able to serve one of these aliens one day! 😀 Enrol in a BartederOne Workshop here and learn the art of creating a classic cocktail!

Coffee Capsules for Bartenders?!

By BartenderOne | Published: April 24, 2019

Maxwell Calonna-Dashwood founder of Colonna coffee and “three time UK Barista Champion” teamed up with world renowned mixologist and author Tristan Stephenson to create “the Bartender Series, a range of espresso capsules designed specifically for use in cocktails.”. A recent article describes the three flavour profile capsules available which include: Earth, Sweet and Fruit. Each capsule is created with a specific spirit pairing in mind. For instance, the Earth is “herbal and sweet with mild spice” residing well with tequila, mezcal and agave based cocktails. Calonna-Dashwood and Stephenson’s belief is that “this approach to implementing coffee in a cocktail bar environment has the potential to revolutionise the manufacture of drinks like the espresso martini as well as myriad other coffee based drinks.”
