30 Drinks Every Bartender Should Know - StumbleUpon So I have a new hire who is about to bartend her first bartending shift and I was about to e-mail her 30 drinks every bartender should know and looking for a list (so I wouldn’t have to make it) and almost every list I found was absolutely ridiculous.

A Different Kind of Smoothie I sat down with a precious girlfriend for lunch at Fiddlecakes the other day and she told me about green smoothies. Huh? It was a smoothie, but was packed with greens such as spinach and kale, fruit, and sometimes even protein powder.
