Pat’s Story:
From First Pour to Professional Craft

A smiling bartender standing behind a bar with various colorful cocktails garnished with lime slices and cherries, with a background of liquor bottles and hanging glasses in a dimly lit bar with neon signs.

My journey into the world of cocktails began quite unexpectedly in December 2024, when I hosted my very first Christmas gathering in my new home. It was during this special occasion that I discovered the joy of crafting drinks and the magic they added to the festive atmosphere. That initial spark quickly grew into a full-blown passion.

Eager to refine my skills, I pursued and successfully completed a comprehensive mixology certification course. This formal training not only deepened my understanding of spirits and techniques but also ignited a desire to turn this newfound expertise into more than just a hobby.

Soon after, I secured regular gigs at a local bar and a bustling catering company. These experiences provided invaluable hands-on practice, honing my speed, precision, and ability to handle diverse client requests in high-energy environments. While I loved the professional challenges, I realized I wanted to share this specific skillset in a more personal way, bringing the bespoke bar experience directly to friends, family, and new clients.

And so, Pat's Garnish & Glass, LLC was born – a mobile bartending business dedicated to bringing the sophistication and fun of a professional bar directly to your private events. It's truly a passion project, allowing me to share my love for mixology and contribute to the memorable moments of your celebrations.
