1946 The Roving Bartender by Bill Kelly

1 Generations of thirsty, lei - bedecked visitors have encountered the magnificent Mai Tai, Ha waii's most famous drink, From the big hotel bars in Waikiki to the smallest bistros on the Neighbor Islands, natives and visit ors alike have sung the praises of this "friend liest drink in the Is lands." A heady concoction of three rums, juices, sticks of sugar cane andpineap ple, none of which can be left out to produce the right character, the Mai Tai is not a "drink to be taken lightly.Its delicious flavor is enjoyed respect fully by those who are fa miliar with the age-old Polynesian rum drink. It is said by many that there are two ways tobe- c o m e a kamaaina (Ha waiian' old-timer): one is to spend seven years learning to know the is lands and their peoples and the other is to spend an afternoon on Waikiki Beach and indulge inthree Mai Tais. Bartender Takao Ya- maguchi, who presides over the famedSurf Room in the RoyalHawaiianHo tel, says the classic Mai Tai contains: 1 jigger light rum, 1 jigger golden rum, 1 jigger dark rum, juice of 1 line, dash of orgeat syrup, dash of rock candy syrup, dash of Orange Curacao. Place one - half lime"shell ( squeezed ) with ingre dients in a large old- fashioned glass, fill with shaved ice, garnish with sprig of mint, sugarcane, pineapple stick and a vanda orchid and two straws.

THE BAR

The proper place for the street bar is to the right as one enters the door. Of course, the room or location will not always allow for this, but the crowd can be handled better. The comfort of the guests should be the first consid eration; so many bars today are careless of this. The boss, in some cases, wants the door kept open for fear that he might miss a sale. Some places are drafty and haven't any heat and even the bartender can't keep warm, and in the summertime it is just the opposite and air conditioning now so good and reasonable. Lockers and hangers should be provided for the help so that they can keep their street clothes in shape and their uniforms clean. In making out cocktail menus, make introduction by telling of the superiority of your goods and the efficiency of your help. Also on the menu the guest should be told that if he brings his own wine or liquor, a corkage will be charged and this should be equal to the profit the house would make selling it. Saloonmen used to take pride in their glassware. Before prohibition, it was common to enter a bar that mixed a drink for 12J/^ cents and drink it from a glass that cost $6.00 or more per dozen. This would be matched cutglass and most of it was imported. Now the glassware in most places shows its cheapness. As the drinks are shorter now, the glasses for mixed drinks should be shorter and the drink recipes in this book are especially for cocktail glasses of not over 2^ ozs. If

THE ROVING BARTENDER

a larger glass is used, then the proportions will have to rise. You may serve a pony of cognac in a 20 oz. snifter glass but if a cocktail glass is not near full it is unsatis factory to the customer. At closing time it is imperative that all glasses be taken off the bar and the bar top washed and dried. This saves the finish. Also polish should be used regularly and this is the duty of the porter or bar boy. A bartender's hands should always be in condition to serve a customer and this cannot be so if he is required to clean drain boards, mirrors, etc. The bartender should keep all glassware clean and move it when the mirrors are being cleaned. He also should keep his stock bottles clean if the saloon is a small one and business permits it in the morning. No service bottles should be on the back bar or above it. They should be on stations below, and nothing but the cash registers and glasses should be on back bar. If there are two or more stations they should all be alike with the bottles in the same order on each;this should be the order for mixing stations too, each station should be made the same and be all either right-handed or all left-handed. This makes it much easier,for at times one bartender may be covering two stations. The arrangement of bottles in the mixing racks is a matter of choice and in some places will be widely different than in others.

No advertisements should mar the mirrors or back bar.

The proprietor should be sure that all his help are registered for elections and that they go to the polls. This is imperative because the prohis are organizing and no one can afford to have non-voters working for him. This means every one handling liquor.

Beer boxes should be in strategic places so the bar-

8

THE ROVING BARTENDER

tender won't have to move too far for bottle beer. A box between each station is good, either below the bar or in lockers under the back bar. Storage boxes for cube and fine ice should be behind every bar and in the handiest position. There is no excuse today for having any galvanized sinks or boxes behind a bar. The life of them is short and they haven't any sales value. There is nothing looks cleaner on a bartender than a fresh apron and the only time he should be without one is when his trousers are black. In arranging the stations all goods of a kind should be kept together; all scotches, all bottled in bond,all blended whiskies, all gins and bran dies, etc. Bars that expect to sell champagne,Rhine wines, etc., should be equipped with wine buckets and rock salt for fast frappe.

Say, why did time, his glass sublime, Fill up with sand unsightly? When wine he knew runs brisker through And sparkles far more brightly. — Moore.

THE BARTENDER

It is very necessary for the mixer and server of a drink to not only know the proper ingredients and proportions of the drink, but also to be familiar with the taste of the different liquors,from what they are made and from what countries they come. The intent of this little book is to give in a restricted way some knowledge of the various wines, liquors, etc., that you will be handling. Cleanliness is the first consideration and is at least 50% of bartending, not only cleanliness of person, but of the bar and everything behind it. The bar top should be kept dry at all times and the ash-trays clean. When water is changed in the sinks, do not forget the disinfectants and keep one hot water at all times. Nothing should be stored behind, under the bar or in lockers that isn't going to be used for the bar. A bartender's uniform should be immac ulate everyday. That goes for the glass towels and bar mops too. Twice a week the glasses should be moved from the back bar at a time) while the mirrors are being cleaned and if the place is dusty the glasses should be given a bath. In arranging glasses on the back bar keep as much symmetry as possible but also have the glasses needed for mixing close to the ice. In other words, don't sacrifice anything to service. If a brother bartender refuses to serve,a "would-be customer" and has good reasons, you should also refuse service. You should never push inferior goods, but when the customer asks for a certain brand give it to him without comment.

11

THE ROVING BARTENDER

In wiping glasses use two towels. The first wipe stand the glass up so the air can get at it. On the second wipe turn down ready to be moved to back bar. Bitter decanters should be well-filled and if you are using bitters out of the original package, as some bars do, keep one for filling and fill up close to the neck as this keeps the dashes more equal. When mixing a drink, never take the mixing glass out of sight of the customer.If it's only a plain water highball, bring the water in a fresh glass up to the drink and the customer then can take as much as he wants. Ice-tongs and scoops are made to be used. Gum or that which is called simple syrup is now widely used especially in service bars where it makes for speed and in the tropics where different bugs,roaches, etc., get into the sugar, but for real life in a drink give me sugar. Just try a collins with the sugar added last and drink it as it fizzes and you won't want to give anyone dead syrup. Both the Tom and John Collins were originally morning drinks and were made to be drunk while they fizzed the same as our gin fizz. Now they are taken anytime and mostly sipped through a sipper. The difference between Tom and John Collins is very little, but the Tom Collins you drink today is the original John Collins or nearly so. These drinks originated in England and the first was John and was made with two halves of lime muddled in a 12 oz. or 14 oz. glass several pieces of cracked ice, a drink of dry gin then filled up with Schweppes soda and lastly the sugar to give it life.Tom was made the same way but Tom Gin was sub stituted for the dry gin.This recipe came from old English bartenders that I worked with in Canada a long time ago. Today,John Collins is made with whiskey instead of gin in the U.S.A. and there are some people who believe that

12

THE ROVING BARTENDER

the original John was made from John de Kuyper Holland Gin. This is a good gin but I was never called upon to put it in a collins. There is a lot of controversy over the origin of the name cocktail as applied to a drink and I am convinced that it originated with the dash of bitters. Anyway when I started bartending a long,time ago,old timers that had been in the business over forty years then, said that an old fashioned toddy with a dash of bitters in it made it an old fashioned cocktail and that was all the difference,and then the Bronx cocktail came out and they claimed it wasn't entitled to the name cocktail because it didn't have bitters in it. These same old-timers at that time said that a so-called punch wasn't a punch unless it had lemon or lime juice in it, but there was then and still is today the milk punch and the Picon punch both without any citrus juice. In mixing drinks that call for absinthe you will find that there are several good substitutes,some of them made in the U.S.and all having the qualities of absinthe without the wormwood which was outlawed because it was nar cotic. In making drinks with the substitute, the drinks should be very cold and the glasses frosted. These drinks were mostly morning drinks and used for bracers. A very popular old time drink that is rarely seen now and very seldom made right is the whiskey punch and it was one of the drinks the bartender made a specialty of. Take a punch goblet (7 ozs.) a cube of ice, pour in the drink of whiskey, decorate with the different fruits you have on hand and while the customer is getting thirsty take a mixing glass (no ice) put in an oz. of lemon juice, one spoon of sugar and a couple ounces of charged water, stir this thoroughly and pour into punch glass. Then stir

13

THE ROVING BARTENDER

and float a third of an oz. dark rum on top. You could sample one yourself.

There is very little difference between a whiskey punch, a whiskey sour and a whiskey fizz. The punch is the one that's stirred and the sour and fizz go on the mixer but there isn't any charged water added to the sour.There was an "Eastern"sour topped with rum same as the punch and a "continental" sour topped with claret. A sour glass should not be over 5J^ ozs. Another appetizing drink to be seen made is the Picon punch.This too was a very popular drink and may have a vogue again. Take a 7 oz. goblet, 1 cube of ice, add fruit, then pour in a half oz. of grena dine, the drink of Amer Picon, then fill up with seltzer. This drink shouldn't be too cold. Some of the boys liked a pony of brandy floated on this and how their tongues would wag after about three. In making old fashioned cocktails the bartender should be careful about the amount of sugar and bitters, also the water. If the cube of sugar is large, it should be quartered, a dash of bitters and an oz. of water (plain).Some bartenders use seltzer because they get quicker action, the sugar dissolves more readily, also a toddy spoon or some kind of Agitator should be added to the drink. In serving mixed drinks the glasses should be set on the serviettes in front of the guests and the contents of the mixer strained into them. The Mint-Julep is made in a great many different ways in different localities and since prohibition, some bartenders put everything in but the cash register.The drink is really simple but takes time to make. None but fresh tender mint should be used and not too much.This drink was originally made with brandy, but now both bourbon and rye are used according to locality.

14

THE ROVING BARTENDER

If you are working in a club where you have space to store glasses in a refrigerator and can get some 12 oz. or 14 oz.lead or flint glasses, muddle your mint lightly with a spoon of sugar and two ounces of water, half fill with small ice, then store till ordered. On hot days these make quite an impression no matter what kind of liquor you use. Champagne Cocktails and kindred drinks like the Russian cocktail and McLaughlin cocktail should not be made in hollow stem glasses but made in what are now called champagne cocktail glasses. The Gin Rickey used to be a favorite drink in the summer time and is yet in the Tropics. It had various relatives, such as the Gin Buck, Porto Rico and Bazinka, all to be recommended for hot weather. Whiskey sours and Gin Fizzes in the "rough"are made in the mixing glass with fresh lemon,^of a lemon to a drink muddled with a spoon of bar sugar, fine ice added and then the liquor. This is shaken up by hand and served in the mixing glass with straws. Charged water is added to the fizz but not to the sour. The sour mixing glass should be 10 oz. and the fizz 12 oz. Hot drink glasses are on the market,a 5 oz.for the toddy and a 7 oz. for the punch and the bartender should always put a metal spoon in the glass before drawing hot water into it. He also should heat the glass before starting the mix, first in is a cube of sugar for the hot toddy,then a twist of lemon peel, a twist of orange peel,three cloves,then the water leaving just enough room for the liquor.The hot punch is made in much the same way but lemon juice oz.) is added and two cubes of sugar go into this. Either nutmeg or cinna mon is dusted on top. Never use an old fashioned glass for this drink because the customer can't handle it if the drink is properly made.

In making egg and milk drinks there is always some

15

THE ROVING BARTENDER

expansion and care should be taken to not get too much in a mixer as it will overflow and make a messy drink and bar. Fizzes made with either egg or cream require either a 9 oz. or 10 oz. glass. Chill your cocktail glasses while cooling your drinks. Never put dirty glasses on the drain board. Always wash them direct from the bar. Get this habit and you will always have a place to work from and no broken glasses. When you are wiping glasses and a guest comes to the bar always hang your towel where it belongs before start ing to serve him. Also if you are holding a conversation and a customer comes to your station, excuse yourself immediately and finish serving him before resuming the talk. Ullage is the space between the liquor and the cork in a bottle and the space between the contents and the bung in a cask or barrel. Where it says cocktail in these recipes it's a cocktail glass unless otherwise specified and where it says spoon it means a dessert spoon —2 teaspoons. In making a highball ask the customer if he or she cares for lemon peel. The original highball called for it but so many don't care for it that it gives better satisfaction if you ask. Use cube ice for all stirred cocktails, highballs, Collinses,Singapore slings unless you are asked for fine ice and fine ice always goes in the shaker. If there is beer on draught be sure the pipes are kept clean and the greatest care must be taken with beer glasses. Fingers should never be stuck in glasses when removing them from the bar as there is a certain amount of oil secreted by the fingers and this makes the beer flatten out.

16

THE ROVING BARTENDER

The gas on beer should be left at the proper pressure and not moved from one day or week for that matter, to another. If the beer is drawn from the cellar or other box, it should be tapped from its position and not moved unless absolutely necessary and if there is plenty room keep plenty beer as it will save money in handling,no wild beer. Be on time when opening up in the morning or reliev ing a brother bartender and when your shift is finished don't loiter around.It is the duty of the morning bartender to prepare the bar for the day's work and he shall cut and arrange the different fruits for the day — cut lemon peel and orange peel, fill up the different sugar receptacles and bitter decanters and give all his tools a bath. The morning man may have to make the syrup —just fill a shaker or large glass with sugar and pour in seltzer or any charged water and you will have enough and fresh when you need it. Of course, it's more economical to buy it already made. If you smoke, don't blow it in the customer's face and don't slouch when behind the bar. Stand up straight and be active. Always keep bottles of sparkling water, ginger ale, cola, etc. corked with some type of stopper, except when very busy and never forget them when closing as there is nothing can spoil a drink faster than dead water, etc. If you find any so spoiled dump them out. The customer isn't always right. He or she isn't right if intoxicated or if one annoys others or has no respect for the house or the bartender. You will have to take a certain amount of abuse from drunks, but keep your dignity. You will find a difference of opinion in mixing certain drinks, for instance, the "Manhattan" was the most popu lar cocktail at one time but has changed considerably in the past forty years. The recipe of 1900 was two dashes gum syrup,one dash augostura bitters,one dash of curacao,

17

THE ROVING BARTENDER

one oz. o£ Noilly Pratt French Vermouth and an ounce of rye whiskey with a twist of lemon peel right in the mixing glass; I believe it was better than the Manhattan of today. The martini was a sweet cocktail and was made with Martini and Rossi Italian Vermouth. Then came the Dry Martini and became the most popular of all. At one time these were made 50-50 gin and vermouth, now 80-20 with gin leading.Some places use a twist of orange peel in place of orange bitters —very aromatic if fresh. You will find the planters punch made in glasses all the way from 8 ozs. to 16 ozs.and you will find orange juice in some and grena dine in others and in some places both, but not in the original. The Singapore Sling is another drink that is misunderstood and some places make it cheap to cheapen the price. Where bottles are mentioned it's always a quart or a fifth. In these recipes you will find the ingredients in the order that they should go into the mixing glass and where it says shake you go for the fine ice and the mixer. The beginner should be very careful with the electric mixer because if a drink is left on too long it will be too big for the glass and will be watery. Egg and milk drinks need more time on the mixer than the smaller drinks.If making more than one drink at a time the ice should be used in proportion. Get in the habit of putting just so much ice in for each drink.This is the only way you can get uniformity in your drinks.Thesame goes when stirring a drink.Three cubes of ice are enough for one cocktail but you must add at least one cube for every extra drink and don't try to make too many in one glass. In a service bar it is easier to drop your twists of orange and lemon peel in the mixture, but if you like service it is best in front of the customer to twist the oil out over the drink and throw the peel away. When you finish with a mixing glass or mixer, dump the

18

THE ROVING BARTENDER

leavings in the discard and wash, never get lazy and leave it stand as it may spoil the next drink. Make drinks accord ing to the recipe. Do not add other ingredients without you change the name of the drink. Sometime you may be called upon to make Pousse Cafes and you will need a toddy spoon to pour the different colors over. Hold the spoon in the glass so that the liqueur goes down the side of the glass slowly as many of these colors have about the same weight and will mix.Again you may find a liqueur from one firm that will be different from another in weight but if you pour carefully it will take its place. These were very popular years ago and in most places used to bring IS cents a color. When cutting limes always extract the pips. It takes a little more time but makes a better looking drink. Always remember to treat your brother bartenders with courtesy, and see that they treat you the same. Stay on your own station unless the brother has more than he can handle and is willing for you to help him, but don't go around him. Bartenders should always stick together. Be courteous to your customers and attentive to their wishes. Many of them will have their own ideas of how their drink should be mixed and their wishes should be considered. In stirring a drink just hold the spoon loosely and move your hand around the glass. The ice will turn the spoon. In using the hand shaker, never put charged water in the shaker. If you do something will have to give.

INTRODUCING MICKEY FINN

So many people seem to have the idea that a Mickey Finn is a kPock-out drink, that it is quite necessary to disillusion them.

MICKEY FINN

Said the rounder to the barkeep There's a name I've often heard Everybody seems to know him But I have never met that bird I have heard the barkeeps whisper I have seen the waiters grin Every time his name is mentioned "Who in Hell is Mickey Finn"?

MICKEY FINN; the barkeep murmured With a queer look in his eye Brother, let us hope your luck holds And you never meet that guy He makes cream puffs out of red hots If they fight, they never win If you're feeling tough and ugly Keep away from MICKEY FINN. In the night clubs and the gin mills Where the food and booze abound And the boys are bending elbows MICKEY FINN is hanging around Lurking somewhere in the shadows 'Til he's called to do his stuff When this gent goes into action Brother "Scram" he sure is tough. You may think you're wild and woolly Hard as nails and tough as sin

21

THE ROVING BARTENDER

Do not kid yourself old timer You are soft for MICKEY FINN

With a MICHAEL in your middle It is time to haul your freight For the nearest door marked "Gentlemen" And you are usually late. If you like to bawl out waiters Squawk for service, beef and roar Take my tip and do not do it You may make the brother sore And a MICKEY in your coffee Don't improve the stuff a bit You may wish to tear his heart out But you won't, you'll only (quit)? When your liquor makes you quarrelsome And you're starting on the prod MICKEY FINN is sure to get you When the barkeep gives the nod So try to be a gentleman It doesnt' cost a dime And you'll never meet with MICHAEL And live a longer time. When you're batting round strange grop shops Don't take on the bully role For the house holds all the aces With the joker in the hole ,,
