Bartenderutbildning

About 3 months ago I decided to do a bartender course. I have been on one side of the bar, but I'd like to try both sides really. After much thought and research I decided to apply to a 4 week education located here in Sweden. For me it was obvious that a bartender course in Sweden would be more serious than one in for example Magaluf, Spain or Rhodes, Greece. (Apparently that's what employers think as well). The school I choose is called "Sveriges Restaurang & Barutbildning".   So far I really like the school. My teachers knows' what they're talking about and they have plenty of experiense. In 4 weeks, I get to learn a lot about the liquors, base, flavour. How do I know when to shake, stir or build a drink, what glass to use, what garnish to use regarding to the soft drink. How to freepour and bounce. How do you produce beer, wine, liquor. I can't mention it all because there are so many things you need to know before you can feel completely safe and certain about what you're doing behind the bar.   This is only my first week (of four), but I feel like I'm glued to this book. If you don't like to or know you won't study hard, I don't recomend this school. The teachers will require you to study and they will make you raise your goal. We'll see if I reach mine! I'll tell you in 4 weeks! Until then I will keep you updated about what we're doing and how's it going.   Here's a shooter (in a liqueur glass) for you to try. I don't know if actually exist so I call it Mini Orgasm, because it's similar to Orgasm.           Mini Orgasm   1 part Amaretto (almond liqueur) 1 part Irish cream   Shake well with ice, strain the ice and pour in to shooter glass.     My halloween weekend
