Bert's Peach Tea |
Just how did Bert's Peach Tea come into existence? Here's a brief narrative:
Sunday, December 4, 2011
Bert received a phone call from Roger ... he needed his bartender shift covered at (what used to be known as) Danny's Porch immediately so he could tend to a pressing family issue.
Bert was still new and relatively inexperienced behind the bar, but he made it through the shift without incident.
Toward the end of the night, Bert made use of his free time by thumbing through the "Bar Bible" to see what he could learn about various beverages.
In doing so, he discovered something important about the components of a particular liqueur.

What if, he thought, what if?
Bert poured a small amount of the liqueur in a glass of ice and added another spirit.
He looked around for something else to go with it, and he found another suitable spirit.
After he was satisfied with the blend he had made, Bert added sweet tea and shook it up.
He tasted it, paused, and smiled, oblivious to the fact that he'd created a catalyst.
As time went on, Bert kept refining his recipe and his brewing methods in order to achieve perfection.
The customers at Danny's appreciated it, but Bert's Peach Tea was merely a concoction that could only be produced at request of those in the know.
It was still too early.
