Bar media is a great tool to learn all about bartending. They teach you about cocktails, mixology, and all things bartending. Reading can help you build a solid foundation for your bartending skills.
However, reading something can only take you so far. It's important to know the best learning method so you can become an effective and efficient bartender.
Various Ways to Become a Bartender
1. Bartending School
Administrations like these usually hand out a certificate or license after you pass the course. Both documents are valid and are used in the industry. It usually takes 2-3 weeks to get certified, but you can also take college courses on hotel and restaurant management to further your business skills and knowledge.
2. Work as a Barback
If you do not have the financial means to enroll in a bartending school, you can always learn the ropes as a barback. A barback's job is to lift, clean, restock and be a bartender's assistant. You can learn from the current bartender by observing and watching them closely.
3. Work at a Restaurant
If you already have experience as a server but want to work at a bar, getting a restaurant job can help you further along with your goal. Restaurants usually hire people who are flexible and are willing to learn.
You'll find that working in a restaurant requires teamwork. Someone with bartending experience can teach you, and this will come in handy when you need to be stationed at the bar area during busy nights.
4. Mentorship
Making connections is essential; you must be willing to make friends to get further in your plans. You can learn a lot from an experienced bartender, so try to be friendly and ask if they're willing to teach you the ways of mixology.
