1 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:07,560 Speaker 1: Hey, this is Annie and Samantha and don't come to 2 00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:18,880 Speaker 1: Stephane never told your production of I Heart Radio. Yes, 3 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:22,440 Speaker 1: and welcome to another edition of Happy Hour. And today 4 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 1: we're going to jump into our episode by celebrating one 5 00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:29,680 Speaker 1: of the most well known female bartenders, Aida Coleman, who, 6 00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 1: by the way, was one of only two women to 7 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:35,560 Speaker 1: have held the position as head bartender at The Savoy 8 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:37,879 Speaker 1: in London and as in fact, in a couple of 9 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: articles they say she's the only female bartender. But again 10 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,199 Speaker 1: there's been some like maybe maybe not, but it was 11 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 1: said as in legends. I guess that she would not 12 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 1: share her recipes with anyone else, especially the other female bartenders, 13 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 1: so there may have been some competitiveness in this, but yes, 14 00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:02,280 Speaker 1: and celebrate her. We are drinking the Hanky Hanky, which 15 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: is a drink I've never heard of, and as always 16 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 1: with these episodes, drink responsibly if you choose to do so. 17 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 1: But that's a pretty solid name. It is. It's a 18 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 1: very good name. And just to give you the recipe 19 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:18,040 Speaker 1: of what it is, it is one half ounce of gin, 20 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: one half ounce of sweet vermouth. Two dashes are for 21 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: net branca. I don't know if I'm saying that, right, 22 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: I think, so okay. And then you garnish with an 23 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: orange twist, which actually I did. I've got my pretty 24 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: glass and you see it, and I garnished it with 25 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: my orange twist. Thank you very much. I was trying 26 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: to be very fancy, of course. Uh. It says, add 27 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: all the ingredients into a mixing glass with ice and stern. 28 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: I did that with a shaker and so I didn't stir. Well, 29 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: you shrain into a chilled cocktail glass. My glass was 30 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: not chilled, and then garnish with an orange twist. Sit back, 31 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 1: and this is from the actual article ran about doing 32 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: this specific drink. It says, sit back and enjoy in 33 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 1: the knowledge that you're a teeny tiny bit smashing the patriarchy. 34 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: Ada would be proud. Um. Yeah, so Annie, I dropped 35 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,959 Speaker 1: off some of the assets for this. How's it going 36 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: for you? Going well? Um? As I said before we 37 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: start recording, I love that you gave me a decent 38 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: amount of for net bronco when there's only a dash 39 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 1: that's called for two dashes, Oh two dashes, excuse me. 40 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: That makes all all the difference. And I love that 41 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 1: you dropped off an orange because you rightly assumed I 42 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: did not have one, which I did not. The orange 43 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 1: twist really makes it. That's usually. To be honest, I'm 44 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: the type of person that really cuts corners in cooking 45 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 1: and in making drinks. So it's like, you know, the 46 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: slightly nicer thing that you can skip, I usually skip it, right, 47 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: So this is I feel like this is a very 48 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: elevated drink for me. I did tap mine off with 49 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 1: sparkling water. I tried it before without it, but it's 50 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: so hot in my closet because it's kind of a 51 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: it's a sweet drink that sort of coats your mouth 52 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: that I thought the sparkling water and the heat would 53 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: improve it in the situation. It is definitely not something 54 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 1: I would typically drink, but I do like it. Yeah, 55 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: so I cheated and made it last night because I 56 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 1: was like, huh, I have plenty of this, Let me 57 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: try this and see what I think. And yeah, this 58 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: is definitely not my alley. This is very liquoricey, which 59 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: is remooth as well as for net brunka apparently has 60 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: that kind of sweetness to it, and I'm not the 61 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: biggest fan of liquorice, so anything like this campari. All 62 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: of that is kind of like, I'm good and usually 63 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: will avoid it. So I did cheat a little bit 64 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: as well, and knowing that we were drinking this today, 65 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 1: and added a squeeze of the orange from which I 66 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: got the zest from to add to it, because I 67 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: was like, I need a little more cidity, little fruitiness. 68 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: And of course I love gin, but it's just straight liquor. 69 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: So I'm like, even though this is for a happy 70 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 1: hour and it is afternoon, it's still early in the afternoon, 71 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: and we have more to record today, so don't have 72 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: to question away. Let's just be real honest and how 73 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 1: we do these episodes. But yeah, so I had to 74 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: kind of space it out. I'm spacing it out as 75 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: I'm drinking it. I also, instead of having a chilled glass, 76 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: I have a nice cube and I'm like, yeah, I 77 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: think I needed to water it down just a little bit. Yeah. Yeah, 78 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: it's strong for sure. And I'm always kind of intrigued by, um, 79 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: the ups and downs of people's preferences and alcohol and drink. 80 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: So like the eighties is one of my favorite examples 81 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 1: where everything was bright and super sugary and you know, 82 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 1: coming from the shelf and then the nineties was like 83 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: what were we thinking the eighties and trying to correct that. 84 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:54,919 Speaker 1: So I would love to learn more about when she 85 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: was creating this in London, what was the preference in 86 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,919 Speaker 1: the cocked else seemed like right, I'm absolutely certain that 87 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: they were Yeah, darker drinks and for bars most of 88 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: the times it was like whiskey for men obviously, um, 89 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 1: maybe some wine, maybe some ale, and women were probably 90 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: drinking the small cups of things, the sweeter mold wines 91 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: type of thing I'm thinking. But yeah, so let's talk 92 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: about Ada just a little bit. Yes. So, Ada was 93 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 1: born in eight and began her career and bartending and 94 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 1: mixology after father's death, when her father's boss, Rupert duly Kart, 95 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: offered her a job, first in a flower shop, then 96 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 1: in the bar at the Clarage Hotel. As she began 97 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: her career, there were women in the industry that were 98 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 1: few and far between according to American statistics at the time, 99 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,039 Speaker 1: but still they were still there. However, they were not 100 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: considered bartenders but actually barmaids, and many were hoping to 101 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 1: push women out as it was seen as quote bad 102 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 1: for them and for society physically and morally, that's going 103 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: back to that hole where women used to not be 104 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: allowed in like coffee houses. They were swearing going on 105 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,919 Speaker 1: in there, right. Yeah, I just go to place like 106 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 1: medieval times and it's the bar winch. Yeah. I have 107 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 1: a lot of experience at medieval times. So yeah, I 108 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,479 Speaker 1: saw your co host already went to ridden Fair. She 109 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: was ready. People really went all in for red Fare. 110 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 1: It just opened in Atlanta, you guys near Atlanta. People 111 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,359 Speaker 1: were into it. Oh they were so ready, masks on, 112 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 1: ready to go. Yeah. And actually Ada was great at 113 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,280 Speaker 1: her job, and she learned really quickly, starting with a 114 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: Manhattan and moving on to being the head bartender at 115 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:40,599 Speaker 1: the Savoy, a bar categorized as an American style bar. There, 116 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,039 Speaker 1: she was lovingly known as Kulli and was a favorite 117 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,919 Speaker 1: at the bar. And there she created her signature drink, 118 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,839 Speaker 1: the Hanky Panky. And the story goes that a comedic 119 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: actor came in who, by the way, knew his cocktails, 120 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 1: so she would learn at home and bring it back 121 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: to him to try. So. Apparently he was the fancy 122 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: one that she would always test her drinks out on um, 123 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: and he came one day tired and needed something with 124 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: what he said a punch, and after she served him 125 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 1: her fancy cocktail, he exclaimed, anyone, let you do this. 126 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 1: I feel like you have a better accent than I 127 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: do on this. Okay, I'm ready, ready, by jove, this 128 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 1: is the real hanky panky lovely, thank you for that. 129 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: And according to the English this was not a sexual term, 130 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: which in the U s It is you know, they're 131 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 1: getting their hanky panky whatever, but actually meaning witchcraft. So 132 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: he was like, you're brewing some here potions. I guess 133 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: that's that's my best interpretation of an English guy. I 134 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: guess we're doing so well. We're doing well. And the 135 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:49,679 Speaker 1: interpretation Aida continued on until when she retired or maybe 136 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: was forced out. Yeah. So apparently, according to some of 137 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 1: the conversations, a male bartender came in and was not 138 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: happy that he was working with women, including the other 139 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: woman that we talked about. She was pushed out as well, 140 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: and according to some of the accounts, Ada was pushed 141 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: into going back to the flower shop, in which he 142 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 1: probably just retired, and when he came in he created 143 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: actually what is now one of the more famous savoid 144 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: cocktail books and the only recipe that Aida created that 145 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: made it into that book was the Hanky Panky, which 146 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: is why we know of it still today. Right, Just 147 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: a note here, probably don't probably everyone knows this, but 148 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 1: a lot of cocktail histories I've learned from the other 149 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 1: show I Do savor. There's a lot of myth in 150 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 1: like legend around them and three people that fight over 151 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 1: who invented it and then really was probably around for 152 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: a long time, but you know, just put that out there. 153 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: Ada passed away at the age of ninety one and 154 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: continues to be spoken of and remembered through her beverages. 155 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,680 Speaker 1: And yeah, just by making history, right, Annie, did you 156 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: ever want to be a mixologist or a bartender at 157 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: any point? I did? And um, my good friend Marissa 158 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: has been on the show I'm as a traveling nurse. 159 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 1: She took bartending classes and I was so jealous Afra 160 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: because she had like, like this little case she would 161 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 1: open up and add all these tools and drinks. She 162 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 1: would make us all to me very fancy concoctions, and 163 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,079 Speaker 1: when we would go out and she'd be like, you 164 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,319 Speaker 1: should order this drink because I think you'll like this, 165 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: and I was like so impressed. So you haven't taken 166 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 1: any classes either. I guess I haven't taken any classes 167 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 1: other than like a one shot on how to make 168 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: When I was in Spain, I went to like a 169 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 1: sancrea making class. I did get my license to serve alcohol, 170 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 1: and I had hoped that from there, that's where I 171 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 1: wanted to move up to, was making drinks. But as 172 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: I've said before him that show, on the show, I 173 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 1: I didn't technically lose that job, but I guess we 174 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,079 Speaker 1: kind of ghosted each other and I was only there 175 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: for two weeks. You never got paid for that one, 176 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: did you. Nope? But I was gonna say that does 177 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 1: go into the next question, have you ever been a server? 178 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: I have, yeah, for two weeks, and then um, I 179 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 1: will say it was a lot of work. And at 180 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 1: the place I was, I was doing like the hostess job, 181 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 1: the serving job, and I would like go back and 182 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: get so it was a lot. And also the calculation 183 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: for how you could tell people how long tables were 184 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: really made me panic. So I'm I'm pretty sure I 185 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 1: told people ridiculous times, way longer than actually right. And 186 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: then I worked in a like cafeteria situation for a 187 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 1: couple of months. But that's it, Okay, Okay, yeah, so 188 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 1: I've obviously told the story. I think the maybe I'll 189 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 1: know that I was a beer kinder, as they like 190 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: to call it. We were trying to figure out the 191 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: best name because obviously we didn't make cocktails. But being 192 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:58,960 Speaker 1: from a specific brewery, I could tell you the ins 193 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: and outs of all of the beers, types of hops, 194 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: types of like grains, all of these things, the brewing process, 195 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:09,559 Speaker 1: all of those levels. And I'm pretty really pretty good 196 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: at telling you what you will like. All you have 197 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:13,839 Speaker 1: to do is give me a description of what your 198 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: favorite beers are or what your favorite drinks are, and 199 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,719 Speaker 1: I would go through and I'll be like, Okay, this 200 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 1: is for you. I have several of my friends who 201 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 1: have helped onto better beer choosing. I'm very proud of that, 202 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:31,440 Speaker 1: and they now understand, oh, these are the quality beers. Okay, 203 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: got it. So that's one of my favorite things to 204 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 1: do is help recommend the best things. I will say, 205 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,239 Speaker 1: since you and I have been on our little adventures, 206 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 1: our Star Wars adventures, I have definitely become more experimental. 207 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: But it's always like you always get the basic cocktail 208 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 1: and then I flourish it with whatever else I want 209 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 1: to add, whether it's like I'm gonna add this herban too, this, 210 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna add this barrier. We're gonna muddle it like 211 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 1: this and do this. So that's been really fun to do. 212 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: So I'm like, okay, okay, and while you are the 213 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 1: queen of creating the names, I'm the one who makes 214 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: the cocktails. I feel like we're a good team on that. 215 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: So you're also good at like coming up with the story. Yeah, 216 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 1: And I'm like, okay, here's what we need. Collaboration. Yes, 217 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 1: it's great. And you know our friend Holly over at 218 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 1: Criminalia As who does all of the cocktails and creates 219 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: cocktails for them as well as stuff you missed in 220 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: history class, she did take a class of mixology and 221 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,559 Speaker 1: she did a whole thing. And when we went to 222 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: her home for her birthday, she was killing it with 223 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 1: all of these cocktails. They were so good. I was like, yeah, 224 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: So I'm like, yeah, that's what I would like to eventually. 225 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: I don't know if I would, just I don't want 226 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 1: to serve anymore. I'm done. It's tire. It's tiring. There's 227 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 1: so much and I give all of my props and 228 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: we should be tipping more than they should be getting 229 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: living wages on top of their tips. I still will 230 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 1: tip wherever I go, even if it is Europe. I 231 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: remembering getting weird looks. I was like, no, no, believe me, 232 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 1: you still deserve this money. They're like weird American Okay, 233 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: But like I think it's really uh, it's a hard job. 234 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 1: And then the creativity that goes behind and creating what's 235 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:20,319 Speaker 1: something new because there's already so much out there whatever? Okay? 236 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,679 Speaker 1: And speaking of creating, what would you want to be 237 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 1: your signature cocktail? How would you like to leave out 238 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: with if you had one cocktail for everybody to remember 239 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: you buy? Oh you know. Funnily, I have a group 240 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: of friends they made all these pun name drinks for 241 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,199 Speaker 1: me based on like when you die, We're going to 242 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 1: drink all these drinks. Sounds really morpid, but it was 243 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: very sweet. I was very touched by it. I think 244 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:48,960 Speaker 1: I would want something very like I think Jen would 245 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: be involved because that's my favorite, and I think it 246 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,439 Speaker 1: would be the color changing Jen. It would be very 247 00:13:53,440 --> 00:14:03,679 Speaker 1: Star Wars themed and maybe some basil or basil uh, 248 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 1: and they would have to have some kind of citrus. 249 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 1: But I wouldn't want it to be. I would want 250 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: it to be more interesting, like maybe the grapefruit thing 251 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: or not not why something a bit more interesting because 252 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: that's what changes the color of the color changing. Oh okay, yeah, 253 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 1: you're you're a gin basil grapefoot drink, which I love. 254 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: The last time you made it because we had so 255 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 1: much grape for two so it was killer. That was 256 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 1: so good. It was so good, and then we had 257 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: the fresh basil. It's beautiful. Yeah, you know, I think 258 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: I'm on the definitely along the same lines. I'm definitely 259 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: a gin drinker if if anything. I remember when I 260 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 1: first ordered gen uh look like twenty twenty four. How 261 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 1: did you start drinking? Until later? And I got gin 262 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 1: and tonics and people are like how old are you? 263 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 1: Are you an old man? And I was like, yes, 264 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 1: yes I am. Don't start with me, but I do 265 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: love that. I think I would love our little tattooing 266 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: Sunset drink. I think that might be my new like 267 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: if I could have a signature, that would be my signature, 268 00:14:56,280 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 1: which we've talked about before, because I love everything there. 269 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: There's acid, there's berries, and it's pinkish purple and then 270 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: you have little floating and blackberries in there. I just 271 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 1: love that and Champagne. Who doesn't love champagne. Yeah, that's 272 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: a that's a solid traice. I mean Champagne. If I 273 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: could get that involved in my gin drink that I'd 274 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 1: be tops. And I made that for a friend of 275 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: mine for me the fourth and she asked me, like, 276 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,760 Speaker 1: I want to know Samantha's process and the story behind. Don't. 277 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 1: I'll make it for her. I got you. One day 278 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: we just have a giant party. I probably could drink 279 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 1: two drinks and just sit down, so that would have 280 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 1: to be very slow rolling. It cracks me up because 281 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: you said to me multiple times at champagne or sparkling 282 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 1: whine makes you tired, and that's kind of what you 283 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 1: start with I do. And I'm like, well, last night 284 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 1: we started with the bloody because I was like, Uh, 285 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: that's the drink that I want after I've had a 286 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: little too much drink the night before. If I'm drinking 287 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 1: at all, that's gonna be my drink. So yeah, uh, 288 00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: sometimes it's fun.
