“Shaken not stirred,” we have all heard the saying. It is what makes Ian Fleming’s super spy, James Bond, so super. It is not the fact that he drinks martinis, it is how he drinks those martinis, that matter.
Join Barfly columnist Jeff Burkhart as he explains the differences through both demonstration and dissertation. The presentation will feature stories from his books and columns and experiences with customers as he mixes and pours.Learn what it means to drink like “Bond, James Bond.”
I am also including a bio/intro, if you want to use it.
Jeff Burkhart is both an award-winning journalist and an award-winning bartender. His popularBarfly column in the IJ was voted best column in California in both 2014 and 2021, and he himself has been voted “best bartender” seven times, by the readers of three different publications. His two books: Twenty Years Behind Bars: the spirited adventures of a real bartender, and its sequel,Twenty Years Behind Bars: parole denied, are both best-sellers and he still finds time to host the Barfly Podcast on iTunes which has been featured in both Marin Magazine and the New York Times. All of which has resulted in Jeff also being voted “Best Media Personality: TV, Radio, Print” twice in a row by the readers of the Pacific Sun.
