From Mixologist to Bar Boss: The Mindset Shift 🧠
A Mixologist knows how to make a great drink.
A Bar Boss knows how to make that drink profitable.
​If you want to scale your career or your venue, you have to stop looking at the menu as a list of recipes and start looking at it as a financial portfolio.
​Every drink on your menu should serve a purpose:
✅ The High-Margin Hero: Easy to make, low cost, high perceived value.
✅ The Crowd Pleaser: High volume, consistent, keeps people coming back.
✅ The Signature Draw: Your "calling card" that justifies a premium price.
​If your "Signature Draw" has a 35% cost and takes 4 minutes to make during a rush... it’s killing your business.
​Action Step for today: Go look at your top 3 best-selling drinks. Do you know exactly what they cost you to produce down to the cent? If not, that's your homework.
​Who needs help calculating their pour costs? Comment "COST" below and I might put together a quick video tutorial for the classroom!
