How to become a professional bartender?

1. A bartender must not only be able to bartend, he must also be an artist, diplomat, actor, commentator and close friend... A bartender is highly artistic and professional. A skilled trade, the bartender’s work of art is the cocktail. To be a bartender, you must have a peaceful mind and be able to treat every customer equally. Enthusiasm, politeness, and courtesy are the qualities a bartender must possess. To be engaged in this industry, you need to have a wealth of wine knowledge and superb bartending skills. Communication with customers is very important, and all of this must be explored by yourself at work. In addition to using professional wine books and bartending CDs, I constantly improve my professional level. You should also pay attention to the latest beverage trends in fashion magazines, the Internet, etc., and introduce trendy drinks to customers in a timely manner. The best way for a bartender to improve his professional level is to participate in competitions, but only participate in competitions of sufficient level. A lot of time is spent practicing and preparing before a game, so competing can force yourself to work hard to reach higher goals. Many bartenders in China change careers before they reach the age of 30. In fact, many bartenders abroad regard bartending as their lifelong career. There are many outstanding bartenders in international bartending competitions. All are over 30 years old, and some are even in their 50s. But they still love their career and continue to fight for it! I hope we can do the same. A bartender’s job is to make cocktails! The key to a perfect cocktail is: correct operation, correct recipe, correct cup, high-quality materials and beautiful decoration. Cocktails are fashionable drinks based on various alcoholic drinks and added with juice and other auxiliary ingredients in certain proportions and methods.

2. Cocktails can be divided into four categories according to drinking habits: pre-dinner cocktails, post-dinner cocktails, fun cocktails and long-drinking cocktails. Each type of brewing method and process is different; the ratio of base wine to auxiliary materials and the selected cups are different; this all depends on rich knowledge of wine and skilled bartending technology. In the actual work of bartenders, they not only have to remember the names, recipes, and mixing methods of hundreds of cocktails. You must also know the color and taste of the wine; know how to control the portion of the product; know how to control costs; you must also know how to identify the quality, color, aroma, taste, and overall appearance of the wine; and it is also very important to understand customer reviews. Nowadays, many bartenders take cocktail recipes seriously, but many of their creations are not popular. In fact, any cocktail recipe must be modified based on the ingredients you choose, because ingredients from different brands and origins will have greatly different tastes.

3. Finally, you should also learn more about the tastes of customers in the area where you work, so that you can innovate as needed and create popular new cocktails.
