It’s February, and we are in Black History Month, technically still in a pandemic, so wear a mask and get vaxxed.   A shout-out to one of the first renowned African American bartenders Tom Bullock. He bartended at the the St. Louis Country Club. Tom is responsible for about 150 cocktail recipes, and he wrote a guidebook that contained these recipes  - the Ideal Bartender, which was Published in 1917. The book has now been republished. Thank you, Tom Bullock, for contributing to the bartending world. 

My first international guest, Bonnie Awesu! All the way from London. I met Bonnie when she lived in San Francisco. We both worked at this disgusting restaurant and bar in the Mission neighborhood. The restaurant is Cha Cha Cha - which is no longer there. We reminisce about working together and discussing lockdown in the UK and wage theft.
