We love new, creative cocktails, but sometimes you just want one of the classics. In this new video series, we asked New York bartender Michael Neff to show us how to make a few essential drinks, and to tell us a bit about the story behind each one.

Today we're serving the Martini, a very simple yet complex drink. Come join us for a round--this one's on the house.
