#they work well for things that don’t need a crema - love lemon drops in them because they have a nice big surface for a sugar rim

Nothing identifies me more as a bartender than having two fifths of my freezer taken up by glassware and vodka. Another shelf is solely ice.
#yes that’s a tequila bottle at the back there
#no I’m not such a monster that I’d freeze tequila
#it’s vodka in a tequila bottle because the second vodka bottle didn’t fit
#also those coupes are a stupid size and shape but they’re all I could afford
#they work well for things that don’t need a crema - love lemon drops in them because they have a nice big surface for a sugar rim
#but esspresso martinis look shit in them - as do all cream based drinks like grasshoppers
#fuck now I want a grasshopper
#I also want a gin and tonic
#and I have no tonic and no cream/milk so both are out of the question
#I will also say the vast number of ice packs are a remnant from my ‘I’m doing eight hours of dance every day minimum’
#because I used to come home and just tape ice packs to the various injuries I had instead of actually resting
#gotta love toxic industries
#I really jumped straight out of one and into another
#also holy shit I was just reading online about what the current consensus is on vodka in the freezer and…nearly every single article cites
#a business insider interview with the guy who created grey goose where he’s like ‘nooo it kills the flavour don’t put it in the freezer!’
#and sir sorry to break it to you but your fucking expensive vodka tastes shit
#we have a bottle at work and hardly sell any of it because it’s over priced and is one of the worst tasting vodkas we have
#I’d genuinely take the shitty Chekov vodka that we use as house when we can’t get our actual house in than grey goose
#grey goose is shit that rich people pretend to like because grey goose are insanely good marketers
#vodka honestly isn’t meant to be complex (yeah there are some good complex vodkas - I really like źubrówka if I’m drinking it neat or over
#ice) but truly…vodka is there to be a source of alcohol. if you want complex flavours then go with gin or whiskey or rum or tequila
#vodka is ethanol plus water. the bison grass źubrówka obviously has a little more to it but that’s why I drink it. and if I were to have a
#anyway what I’m saying is if I were to have to drink grey goose I’d definitely freeze it first. it’s such a mediocre vodka considering the £
#I will also say this comes from the perspective of a cocktail bartender. I use vodka because it doesn’t have a flavour that’s gonna fuck wit
#whatever fruity drink I’m making
#unless I’m specifically making a vodka martini I don’t really want to think about the vodka
#I just want it to be my basic more or less flavourless spirit
#I did not mean to go on so much about vodka
