Industry mentor Don Lee thinks about creativity often – how to hone it, strengthen it, and push our industry to places we have only dreamed of.

Join us for a conversation about the process of creating new cocktails, if there are any such things, and how to thoughtfully and daringly join the centuries-long creative dialogue of the bartending craft.

You’ll learn:

• How to harness and channel your creativity
• Understand where your drinks fits in the “cocktail multiverse” (and what that even is)
• Get inspiration for Negroni Week and beyond!

About Your Teacher:

With a background in documentary photography and software engineering, Don Lee’s fierce curiosity and fascination with creation and interpretation found a natural home behind the bar during the mid-aughts cocktail renaissance. Lee’s industry icon status was cemented not only by direct innovations—designing industry benchmark barware, spearheading the fat-washing technique with the Benton’s Old Fashioned, menu creation and consultation—but through his work guiding the next generations, for which he was awarded American Bar Mentor of the Year.
