The gallery of shakerface

Tales round-up in the Washington Post

I love the faces people make when they shake cocktails- everyone has their own style. My favorite shakerface of all time is that of Tony Abou-Ganim, who gnashes his teeth and makes an orgasmic grunt every time he's got a shaker in his hands. He makes it sound like he Just Can't Wait to get that drink in the glass.

Last night I judged a 42 Below vodka competition at Cafe du Nord in San Francisco and recorded the shakerface of the contestants. Here are some of the best- click for larger images:
