Videos Released: How to Make a Martini & Other Cocktails

Some people learn better with visual aids than they do from reading alone. This is one of the reasons why About.com has been working hard on developing videos for some of our subjects. I have been working with the video team to bring you instructional videos of some of the more popular cocktail recipes (Champagne Cocktail, Martinez and Ward Eight), recipes that require a special technique (Mojito) and some fun, new drinks that are hitting the scene (Derelik, Green Tea Martini, Lychee Martini and Purple Rain Martini). Most of the videos star real-life bartenders from some of the hottest spots in NYC and Florida, who show off their skills and (as is the case for the Chocolate Martini, Martini and Sidecar) their own variations of popular drinks. Check out these short video clips and keep an eye out for more videos that are in production and coming soon.
