Talking Sip & Guzzle with Steve Schneider
Episode description
It's the last episode of season six and have we got a great interview for you! We head over to New York to catch up with one of our absolute favourite bartenders/owners/humans, the one, the only Steve Schneider, talking about his latest venture, Sip & Guzzle.
But before we hear from Steve, we're doing the usual: opening up bottles, dipping into a book and heading off to a cocktail bar to sample its goodies. The products in question are Linie Aquavit, a caraway-based spirit which dates back to 1805, then we put Ben Branson's Seasn Cocktail Bitters to the test, seeing what characteristics the two very distinct bottles bring to non-alcoholic and spirit forward drinks.
Our book choice this week is Aperitif by Kate Hawkins and our bar review sees us falling for Dram, the recently opened, tardis-like spot in London's Soho.
As mentioned, our interview is with the absolute G that is Steve Schneider. He tells us why he's happy to be back behind the bar and why we should all be heading to New York to experience both Sip & Guzzle, the two unique experiences on offer in the brand new site he co-owns with fellow industry stalwart, Shingo Gokan.
What we're mixing:
The Godfather
50ml whisky (Scotch or blended)
25ml amaretto
Orange peel, garnish
Method:
Stir all ingredients over ice and strain into a Rocks glass filled with fresh ice. Garnish with an orange twist.
