Step behind the bar and into the creative world of bartending, where mixology, passion, and community come together to craft more than just cocktails, they craft connection. 🍸
In this episode, we sit down with Enrique Villa, the heart behind Bottoms Up L.A., as he shares his personal journey through the art of bartending, from learning the history behind classic drinks like the Paloma to creating unforgettable originals like the Black Dahlia. Joining us in this conversation is Eric Mora from M77 Tequila, whose insights and presence remind us of the deep relationship between spirits, creativity, and culture.
Together, they explore the evolution of cocktail history, the importance of customer engagement, and the craft of designing unique drinks that reflect both personality and place. You’ll hear stories about regulars, relationships, and the passion that fuels every pour, because bartending isn’t just about mixing drinks; it’s about creating experiences that linger long after the glass is empty.
Takeaway:
Every cocktail has a story, a blend of creativity, history, and heart. Bartending is more than a profession; it’s a community built on connection, expression, and shared passion.
