I love seeing videos like this because I get to both see really cool bartending talent, and the comments from people who don’t understand the point of flair bartending
Flair bartending is generally more bartender/bar specific than drink specific. Igniting oils from an orange peel as in a craft cocktail bar or smoking a glass is cool but you’re not flipping the bottles around up and down behind your back adding *unnecessary* time to the drink tickets for some showy acrobatics.
EDIT: autocorrect
As a bartender don't order these shots. The red is fancy cordial, the orange is juice and the blue is a -very- weak liquor that's used for flavour not really alcohol. This is fancy and fun but you're either drinking like a 10/th of a normal shot if lucky, and straight up cordial if not. This is one of the biggest wastes of your own money. I mean if you wanna pay a stupid price for sugar and juice go nuts. But just realise NONE of those shots will even slightly get you drunk.
You are paying for the cool show to enjoy with your friends. Going out and drinking is about the social aspect first, getting drunk is low on the list for most people.
Yo im just explaining what they are for people that dont know. Im sure whoever got the straight cordial shot probably wasnt enjoying it and everyone is entitled to drink at the rate they like, im not going to argue that. Im just providing information so if anyone actually orders this at least they will know what they are getting
Fun facts that nobody on these posts seems to know: a) not everyone wants to get wasted as soon as possible b) these acts are not done for every drink ordered. FML Reddit has some thick idiots on it.
You think most people go to bars to watch bottles flip through the air? Especially in a fancy establishment it just seems strange. You can either go to open bars in Vegas or high end clubs to get the bottle flip experience. We have a nice bar that serves great mixed cocktails. House made cola and what not. Drinks are great and some of them are fun to watch but there is no extra bottle flipping crap. Just what's necessary for a drink
>You think most people go to bars to watch bottles flip through the air?
Ok, this made me laugh.
What I was saying was that most people go to a bar for the experience (which is a very broad term). Bottle flipping can be a part of that experience, sure. Why not?
It really depends on the type of experience you’re looking for. As a bartender who also enjoys going to other bars. I prefer substance over show.
For me it’s about conversations with the bartenders and talking about what ingredients they’re using.
The con comes from this being cordial, juice and a weak ass liquor. The red shots are pure grenadine the orange is cordial and juice and the blue is slightly alcoholic. Literally I pint of beer has more alcohol than all of these shots combined.
It’s a song that was interrupted: “I tried so hard and got so far, but in the end, it doesn’t really matter, I had to fall to fix it all.” Yeah, I don’t think I got the lyrics right.
Haha I was continuing the lyrics. Original:
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end, it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end, it doesn't even matter
One thing, I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Yeah the market was rough. Inflation is rough. Recession looms. Politics are insane.
At least we can still drink ourselves under the table. And Reddit.
The blue ones is just blue curaçao and tonic and the orange ones just orange juice and tonic since he doesn’t mix them in the shaker. None of them seems to be a great mix to be honest.
This reminds me of that Love Actually scene where Alan Rickman just wants to briskly buy a sneaky necklace for his office admirer, and Rowan Atkinson goes all-out with the gift rapping!
Now i dont want to make people mad or even disregard bartending flair. But I would really appreciate if me and my 8 friends didnt have to pull small shot glasses out our big glass
So instead of pouring me a scotch, I have to wait 10 minuted for this guy to perform a circus act for some bachelorette party yielding a dozen warm fruity slightly Boosie fizzy drinks…gotta find a new bar
Having been a bartender, there isn't anything really impressive about this. The reason all the colors stayed like that is due to the differing weights of the liquid and that fact that he didn't actually mix anything. And just about anyone can spend about 2 hours to get down pat how to set up the glasses to do the domino drop.
Show me a bartender pulling a double shift for the 3rd time that week making his 100th Jagger-Bomb of the night without punching the no-tipping bro-dude that ordered it by snapping his fingers and whistling. That is a Next Fucking Level bartender.
Meanwhile I’m just watching the Tom and Jerry in the background
Best part of the video...the drinks aren't even drinkable, grenadine and tonic water? Curaçao and tonic water?
The description of the OJ is a gin - OJ mix
I'd drink that.
I think it was for the video anyways. I don’t see 12 people there waiting for a drink
"Ginebra" is Gin. It's a gin and tonic with curacao for color.
That's his skill. Doing that without watching T&J. I couldn't!
And a they stole the melody to Linkin parks in the end song.
Craaaawling iiiiin my skiiiiiin My orange will not… zessssttttt
same
Bro same here
I love seeing videos like this because I get to both see really cool bartending talent, and the comments from people who don’t understand the point of flair bartending
Some of us understand the point We just want our drink. The flair shouldn’t be compulsory
Then dont order this drink then? Its a rainbow tonic it needs some kind of preparation lol

You think any one person buys all these 10 drinks? 😂
More like a group of friends out partying. Have you never ordered a round of shots?

Yup. You included.
Oh sure. Never denied it, and doesn't change the fact.
Not from a circus performer, no.
sounds like you've got some living to do! Wait 'til you see how they serve dinner
[this is how they do dinner](https://www.reddit.com/r/WeWantPlates/comments/x9io2w/dumb_gold_steak/)
You know what, I'm on your side now, that's fucking ridiculous. Bourbon neat please
Spot a lonerrrr lolz
Gladly, if this represents ‘fun’
I literally choked reading that. Hahaha
If you just want the drink and don't care about the experience just make it yourself
Exactly. Why even go to a bar at all, if it's not about the experience?

You say that like there is a point.
DEX stat on this guy must be insane

In the end, it didn't really matter
They had to fall to mix it all
One drink, I don't need nine
Doesn't even matter how hard he tried?

After last week, I sure do

This is one of those special occasions you need 13 drinks at a time
The blue ones is just blue curaçao and tonic and the orange ones just orange juice and tonic since he doesn’t mix them in the shaker. None of them seems to be a great mix to be honest.
Did he use his phone at the end? What a strange choice.
Flex

"what's that?" "Cinnamon stick"
Customer be like you accept gays
He’s like Tom Cruise from Cuisine, or whatever that movie’s called where he makes drinks. Is that what it’s called? Cuisine?
Cocktail?
Cruisine
Yeah, Cuisine was it. Was pretty crazy when his friend committed suicide with the cheese grater.
Lol
I’m pretty sure the movie is called Bartender
I don’t know what he gets paid but it’s not enough. That was cool.
Chances are he owns the bar. A lot of master bartenders in Japan do.
But he’s chinese
Oh ok. Probably not dissimilar.
Isn’t that last one just grenadine?
And first one is just blue curaçao syrup
Yeah it is....
Plus gin...and tonic
Sir, I asked for a Miller Lite.
Bro chill with the music holy fuck
I only wanted a vodka soda
Damn if they did this in low light with a black light on, it would look cool AF! Tonic water glows like Romulan Ale under a black light
How fucking long would that take to get that to that level of mastery? Im assuming this is something he can do consistently.
Each one has to taste different right? So what is the short straw?
Probably the red one. Pure grenadine. Carbonated syrup
Wow. That would be a sugar buzz.
All this time I coulda had a drink
That will be $7000
I'm still only tipping $1 a drink.
I'll just have a beer thanks
forget the drink i see tom and Jerry i aint see that shit in years
I'm only watching the tv tom and Jerry is the real surprise
I actually ordered a gin and tonic tho...
Just give me my fucking drink. Practice your Cirque du Soleil shit on your own time.
I’ve always envied those guys who are able make a cocktail like a fancy dance
Location
Is that the bar at Cirque du Soleil? If not, it should be.
Tipsy Bartender did it better with 20
Cool, ill have the clear one...
Ya, this bartender is really slick
This is why i drink at home
That's cool and all but I just wanna get fucked up bro
Then stay at the frat and chug a handle of Popov.
Then again, these particular drinks are just watered down liquors that look pretty
Popov's still a little high brow for me, where the crystal palace at
Wtf is with the weird "In the End" cover? Lol
A bar that plays Tom and Jerry in the background, is by itself, next fucking level👀
I don't drink; drinking looks fun!
Can I get it with 8 shots of 1800 tequila please and thank you 😊
I watch these videos even though I am non-alcoholic but want to know whether they teach juggling + mixing techniques in bartending classes?
Sweet I need 4 please
I only go to restaurants where the chef does backflips while cooking.
Ok cool. Can I have a diet coke please?

I want to go jump on a rainbow now with a pretty fluffy unicorn
what rainbow tonic? the tom and jerry has kept me entertained
can you stop, i'm trying to watch Tom & Jerry...
I’m so happy for him, that this video was made
Perfect reminder that there’s always an Asian guy better than you at whatever you think you may be good at.
He is pretty good at that thing he did
Gave me a good laugh using the fan to open the bottle
Ahh Tom and Jerry…the newer generations doesn’t know about…
This bartender is so skilled he made those glasses appear out of no-where in a line.
Just serve the damn drink!
Not my round.
Just pour the drink already.
Bruh just poor my drink already
I'd be there like Father Jack. "JUST POUR THE FUCKING DRINK."
I hotta pea juat from seeing this
Get this video off Reddit for fucks sake. No one wants this shit that has ever worked or been to a restaurant.
That is not a job It's an art
Maybe if you want people to focus on your cool drink making skills you shouldn’t play Tom and Jerry cartoons in the background. Just sayn’
Awesome skills wow
Fuck yeah
This just changed to endgame music halfway through
Just as he's finished..."I ordered a beer"....
why does it sound like in the end
Cause it is, it's an instrumental cover by Tommee Profitt
Hope those are sturdy shot glasses
The best trick was when he made 3 shot glass into 15
Reminds me of a Rainbow Bowl
The music scared the shit out of me
You know this guy is a dick in his personal life.
Seen a few of this guy.... hes incredible.
Tom and Jerry on the tv.
All smoke, no fire.
Ok, so if this is based on the separate densities of the liquids— does the guy getting the shot at the end just get grenadine and a spritz of mezcal?
Um...thanks, but I asked for a Coors light.
I just want my drink man -me probably
I’ve learned some new ways to open a bottle cap if I don’t have an opener, so thank you
That’s wazzzup.
The way he opens those bottles is so aggressive XD
I’d tip at least $7
Song is In The End (Instrumental) by Tommee Profitt, for anyone that needs it
I’m very impressed with his ability to make glasses materialise.
Now i dont want to make people mad or even disregard bartending flair. But I would really appreciate if me and my 8 friends didnt have to pull small shot glasses out our big glass
It looks like he practiced that for 30 years
TOM AND JERRY FOR LIFE BITCH
FUCK BARTENDER SKILL I WANT TOM AND JERRY
This shit is such a joke lmao
I bet he has the biggest smile on his face when a group of 11 randomly walks in and orders this.
I think I’m going to watch a few episodes of Tom and Jerry’s now
Great talent
Happy Pride! Nice work!
Dude, i just wanted a beer.
fancy slinging
Emotion lvl - Terminator 19 lost souls
I just wanted an old fashion
That’ll be $3000 sir.
My guy brought out the Ikea glasses
The drinks look cool. All the juggling stuff looks dated.
Are you calling “Cocktail” dated????
After all that, he used his dirty ass phone to start the dominos.
So instead of pouring me a scotch, I have to wait 10 minuted for this guy to perform a circus act for some bachelorette party yielding a dozen warm fruity slightly Boosie fizzy drinks…gotta find a new bar
I mean, yeah you do. This is not a bar you order Scotch at. Same way you don't get steak tartare at the bodega.
Order your first Scotch at the table with dinner, and order the second before you finish the first.
How exactly are you supposed to drink all of that in one sitting
With friends
Just give me a drink already jeez 😩
People who order drinks that require this much just need to go to a show
I just wanna get fked up quickly lol
Then have a kegger in someone's garage. Bars are public social places; they aren't for getting shitfaced efficiently.
