There is a budding resurgence in classic cocktail culture.  From renewed interest in home bars and classic cocktail recipes to modern bartenders creating new classics, the next generation of cocktail enthusiasts are emerging.  And why not?  It is a culture that exists when friends get together at home or at a bar, listen to some great music, sharing common histories or making a new acquaintances, and all while enjoying the creative and spirit lifting efforts of a bartender who cares.

MixPourSip.com endeavors to update and define cocktail culture as it evolves here in the early 21st century.  As an on-going and interactive dialogue with our readers, those living the culture, MisPourSip.com exists primarily to share.  We will offer recipes for cocktails both old and new along with tasting notes of individual spirits.  Readers of MixPourSip.com are participants who are encouraged to share as well with recipes and tasting notes of their own.

Not limited to just being another cocktail recipe site, MixPourSip.com will share a glimpse into your local bartenders.   MixPourSip.com will profile superior mixologists from around the world, where they work, their signature cocktails, what they love and hate about their patrons, what they have learned in a life behind the bar.  Again, MixPourSip.com members are encouraged to profile their local bartenders as well and to send those profiles to us for possible inclusion.

MixPourSip.com will also will shine a light on the broader cocktail culture, as well, and will highlight men’s and women’s cocktail fashion, the rules of behavior in a bar or at a party, even reviews of world class cigars to enjoy with friends.  Reviews of music perfect as background for a gathering of friends and recipes for the foods to feed them will also be offered.  Members are also asked to suggest and prepare music reviews for possible inclusion as well.

In the end, MixPourSip.com exists to bring together the knowledge, experience and enthusiasm of those living the cocktail culture for the benefit of all.  Thank you for visiting, pull up a stool, be sure to share, and enjoy.  Cheers!
