We Asked 14 Bartenders: Which Cocktail Do You Wish People Would Order More? (2025)
2025 is here and with it comes a slew of predictions regarding what the drink of the year will be. The Negroni, the Aperol Spritz, and the Martini have dominated in recent years, but with trends changing at the drop of a dime, it’s impossible to predict which cocktail will fall into hands most often for the next 12 months. Despite the difficulty in forecasting the drink of 2025, bartenders can certainly hope to make some drinks more often. Maybe they’re tired of shaking up espresso-soaked Martinis and want to see guests sip on more savory drinks. The article We Asked 14 Bartenders: Which Cocktail Do You Wish People Would Order More?

We Asked 15 Bartenders: Which Cognac Offers the Best Bang for Your Buck? (2024)
It’s no secret that Cognac carries a strong association with luxury. The category’s most famous high-end expression, Remy Martin’s Louis XIII, can set you back thousands of dollars. Empty bottles of the label, which are made from Baccarat crystal, routinely show up on eBay for triple digits. The notoriety of Louis XIII and other pricey Cognacs can make jumping into the category a bit intimidating. Fortunately, not all excellent examples require a mortgage payment to acquire. In fact, there is a wealth of expressions on the market whose quality punches well above its price tag. The article We Asked 15 Bartenders: Which Cognac Offers the Best Bang for Your Buck?

We Asked 12 Bartenders: Which Cognac Offers the Best Bang For Your Buck?
There’s a longstanding visual that’s often associated with drinking Cognac. It involves an old, rich white guy in a smoking jacket sitting by a roaring fireplace, slowly and joylessly swirling the liquid in the broad-based snifter in his palm. Despite the category’s efforts to distance itself from this stuffy stereotype, it persists. This assumption does more than convey pretentiousness — it implies that Cognac is the forbidden fruit of the spirits world, unattainable unless you have deep pockets. This is untrue: Cognac is for everyone, and for every budget. The article We Asked 12 Bartenders: Which Cognac Offers the Best Bang For Your Buck? appeared first on VinePair .

We Asked 11 Bartenders: What Are the Best Split-Base Cocktails?
Classic cocktails typically feature one star spirit that’s considered central to the drink’s identity. It can dictate where the beverage appears in a cocktail book or on a bar menu, and is a major factor in attracting — or dissuading — guests from ordering it. But as bartenders continue to push the limits of mixology, more and more programs are spotlighting split-base cocktails, which use two different spirits as the foundation of their builds.
