Two-Drink Minimum: A Challenge
July 17, 2008 · Print This Article · Written by Jennifer
Two weeks ago, I met Shana for drinks at Ravenous before KC Mosso’s The Situation opened for Langhorne Slim. We were talking about this magazine and ideas that we had and she was introducing me to people she knew. It was all very exciting. I ordered a beer (a safe drink, I know). She ordered a mojito. We were just talking and laughing and meeting people while we waited for the music to start and we came up with this idea: Two-Drink Minimum.
Initially we were going to solicit the general population’s opinion for this new column: What are your favorite two drinks in Healdsburg? Who makes them? We wanted to get people out and about trying new things.
BUT tonight, after dinner with a friend and running a few other errands, I was driving home (twiddling my hair with one hand and driving with the other) and I had THE BEST idea for this column: Make it a challenge–a challenge to the bartenders of Healdsburg to showcase their signature drinks.
Isn’t that an exciting idea? So–that’s what it’s going to be–exactly that. Bartenders, here is my challenge to you:
What are your two signature drinks? How do you serve them? What is the story behind your the creation of the drink?
Think about it. Just think about it for awhile. Let it ruminate. And when you’re ready. WHEN YOU are ready.
Submit it. Submit a picture of the drink. Submit your picture. Submit your story. And we here at Healdsburg Magazine will try to get everybody to come in to try it.
You can submit up to two drinks at a time (hence the title of the column: Two-Drink Minimum). We will need to know your name, where you work, and when you work. I’m creating a completely new email just to take submissions for this column: twodrinks@HealdsburgMagazine.com
How about we just start with that?
PS: You can also take pictures of people enjoying your drink and send them in too. Maybe at the end of it all, we’ll have an event where people can vote on their favorite.
