Or should I say "Che cosa
beviamo oggi?"
Creating
a drink menu for a bar/restaurant is an exciting challenge, one that I enjoy
immensely. In many ways, it’s similar to what I do as a DJ, where I often work
within the parameters of a musical style or theme. Working on a themed cocktail
menu gives a mixologist a definitive palette to work within - and there are
plenty of opportunities for variations on a theme or to "remix" a
classic recipe, as well as create original libations.
My
current project, building an Italian-inspired cocktail menu and spirits
collection for Christopher Rovezzi at Rovezzi's Ristorante in Sturbridge, MA {http://rovezzis.com/} has allowed me to
indulge in one of my passions - the world of Italian spirits. My home bar is a
testament to this obsession - I own a veritable liquor store worth of
vermouths, amari, americanos, grappas
and cordial liqueurs from Italy.
