This recipe, one of the first developed for the opening menu at Pacific Standard, is my reconciliation to a drink that I never really cared for in the first place: The Bloody Mary. Yeah I know it’s weird. But as a bartender, I’ve always been that guy that died a little inside whenever someone ordered | Read More

This is a take on the solution to The Bloody Mary Conundrum that I posted over a decade ago, in response to the logistical challenges of having a Bloody Mary on the menu at a bar. This particular take is detailed more extensively in the All-Day Bloody Mary post, and I encourage you to read | Read More

This is another one of those instances where I assumed the recipe was already on my website and lo and behold… it wasn’t. So here we go, although many of you have already found this one in other locations (it can also be found on page 40 of The Bar Book, for example) I think | Read More

My first real fancy bar job was at a French restaurant. I’d been working for like six years in dive bars and clubs already but this was like, black tie, crisp white shirt, starched bistro apron, the whole thing. Pouring wine and TONS of Martinis. At least once a night someone would order a Martini | Read More

This drink is zero proof but if that’s not your thing I can attest to the fact that this recipe works quite well with alcoholic amari as well. Big thanks to Jordan Hughes over at High Proof Preacher for shooting and editing this gorgeous video. To read the whole story of this drink, check out | Read More

This is super cool. Friend of the site and all-around rockstar Richard Lindsay turned my Universal Syrup Calculator into an easy-to-use webapp, so those of you who aren’t super comfortable with spreadsheets (and I don’t blame you) have a much easier solution. Just plug two numbers into Richard’s app and it spits out all the | Read More

This is one my business partner, Benjamin Amberg, came up with for our menu at Pacific Standard last year – and boy is it a good one. It all started when the owner of a new non-alcoholic spirit company out of Seattle reached out to me and let me know he was coming to Portland | Read More

One of those drinks I used to get a lot of orders for back in the 90s and early 2000s, I decided to take a second look at it for our menu of West Coast-inspired food and drink at Pacific Standard. Read the original post about the process here, or click to watch the video | Read More

Okay, so I grew up eating artichokes – my family lived not far from Castroville, California, and they were a regular part of dinner for me. So when we opened Pacific Standard in Portland, with a food menu that serves as a tribute to West Coast cooking, I knew I had to put a steamed, | Read More

Yesterday I bought a new hand juicer that someone shared with me, and I bought it because it was something I’d never seen before! (To be fair I do believe it was just released this year – someone let me know if this is incorrect) It’s a hard plastic, flat hand juicer. That’s right, it | Read More
