We interviewed Chris Levitt, better known as @notjustabartender on Instagram and TikTok. Chris is an ACTUAL bartender in Vegas as well as a cocktail influencer. Interestingly, Chris started out critiquing other influencers, namely Jules! Chris walks us through how he got started, where he works now, and how to make a pretty epic Mojito.

Mojito 
In collins glass add

1 medium lime cut into little quarters 8 pieces

1 tablespoon sugar

Muddle (press and twist)

10 - 12 mint leaves and make sure you clap ‘em to release the oils and aroma 

1.5 oz of a blended white rum (Probitas or if you can’t find it, use Plantation 3 star)

.5 oz Appleton estate (you don’t have to go crazy in price)

Add ice to ¾ of glass

Use bar spoon, drive it to the bottom of the glass, and swizzle the drink by rolling the handle back and forth between your hands
Top with club soda and more ice
Take spoon up and mix ingredients with club soda 
Garnish with 3 Mint sprigs - smack ‘em around a bit and hit the glass so the glass smells pretty

TIP: Bartending books to buy
