Every once in a while, we gotta toot our own horn. With our first-ever Cocktail Issue out on stands, it’s time to celebrate, and yeah, we’ve got a party planned — tonight’s HighBall, in which more than 15 of the Bay area’s best bartenders will ply you with their own custom concoctions at St. Pete’s Kozuba & Sons Distillery, and you get to vote on the one you think is best.

In honor of the occasion, we got together with a few of the bartenders (don’t call ’em mixologists) and homegrown video production outfit Video Shampoo to create a few fun videos showing the creation of some innovative and delicious drinks. Check out Kozuba & Sons’ unique two-ingredient take on the classic Old Fashioned below; you can see other videos at our YouTube page.
