Jordan Grant
VIRTUAL MIXOLOGIST
I jumped into the world of mixology 4 years ago after attending a party where one of my close friends was making some amazing classic cocktails. After asking him endless questions about each cocktail and how to make them, he allowed me to use his tools to make a Daiquiri and the rest is history. I continued learning how to make drinks from my friend and other local bartenders, bought my own set of tools, and ordered some books so that I could keep getting better at my craft. Now I am a certified mixologist and aspire to hopefully one day open my own bar/lounge where people from all over the world can enjoy cocktails that I created.
Mixology is my passion because I enjoy the process of crafting new beverages and watching people enjoy them. An artist by nature, I am inspired by the shared and unique experiences of Black people and the diaspora. I highlight Black-owned spirit brands as much as possible because I believe in supporting one another and investing in our community. I have made signature cocktails for friends and family as well as crafted themed drinks inspired by amazing Black creatives such as Beyonce and Chadwick Boseman (check out my Black is King themed cocktails on the following page). I hope my cocktails bring some form of happiness to those who wish to make and/or drink them.

Spirits & Syrups
ALWAYS FRESH AND HIGH QUALITY
I try to use and highlight brands that I know take pride in the craft of distilling high quality spirits. I use fresh juices and ingredients, and make my own syrups, so that I know what goes into every drink I make. The result is drinks that are well-balanced, fresh, and great tasting.
