This past weekend I guest bartended at the Elk Mountain Hotel for an event sponsored by the Hanna Basin Museum. The fundraiser was based on a 1920s speakeasy.

There were two bars going at the hotel for the event.

Downstairs were whiskey-based drinks from the 1920s and upstairs, out on the balcony, a bar was set up that served gin-based cocktails along with wine.
