In the video, a man is standing behind a bar. He is wearing a black shirt and glasses and is holding a book in his hands. The book is titled "The Joy of Mixology" and has a red cover with a picture of a cocktail glass on it. The man is talking about the book and its contents, and he appears to be a bartender or mixologist. The bar has a variety of bottles of alcohol on the shelves behind him, and there are two shakers on the bar in front of him. The man seems to be explaining how to make cocktails and the importance of using the right ingredients and techniques.
