To say that we were both nervous about guest bartending at Bistro 7 would be a gross understatement. What if someone ordered a cocktail we had never heard of, what if we put too much vodka, gin, or rum into the shaker? The possibilities were endless, but our fears added up a bit when we got behind the bar. Amanda, the bartender at Bistro 7, took us through where the bottles of white were, where the reds by bottle and glass where, where the vodkas were, where the rums were, where the premium liquor was, which glasses to use for soda, water, cocktails, wine, and beer, where the water tap was, how to pour the perfect pint, how to pour a glass of wine, how to fill out order tickets, where to put dirty dishes, where to find the napkins and utensils, where to find the spoons/soup spoons/forks/knives, and how to pick up the food at the kitchen window. Woooooh.

Master Mixology and Cocktail Party @ Bistro 7 in Wilton
4 Oct1) Open Jose Cuervo Margarita Mix
2) Pour in tequila
3) Add ice
4) Serve on the rocks or blend
Everybody knows this is how you make the perfect margarita…right? Look, there’s a mix or artificial flavor packet for almost any drink you could imagine! But that doesn’t make it great…or even drinkable. What makes a cocktail good is finesse, detail, attention, and help from a moustached hipster.
