Here’s the promo for a video I shot with Jackson Cannon for the Gloucester Times website. Look for our weekly GMG show soon.
Weekend Entertaining Help Is Here! Noted Mixologist Jackson Cannon Launches Video Cocktails Series of Videos on www.gloucestertimes.com
The first video features Good Morning Gloucester’s Joey Ciaramitaro learning the old fashioned way to make America’s first cocktail – The Old Fashioned. This drink is making a reappearance on America’s cocktail scene thanks to the hit series “Mad Men” and a growing interest in drinks from the past. Jackson shares his tips and expertise in how to it properly and also make the proper presentation. The videos are very helpful for your own holiday and weekend entertaining. According to Boston Magazine; Jackson Cannon, Eastern Standard of Boston Bar Manager, “is one of Boston’s revered senior mixologists. Cannon’s cocktail style is classic, but not conservative, and he views drink making as a tool of hospitality, not as an end in and of itself.”
All of the beverage and cooking videos at http://food.gloucestertimes.com. Complete recipes for every drink are provided as well. You can also see their other beverage videos in the Wine & Beverage Videos category.

Joey,
A genuine “oh, that’s nice” is the best response.
Congrats on your new career. Keep looking to discover and enjoy those old favorites. (hint: whiskey smash)OMG
By the way, it is great to see the old cocktails ( old fashioneds, manhattens, Smash, etc ) made as they were meant to be made. Rye Whiskey! We have been making and barreling a traditional pre-prohibition style Rye. Some has been on oak for 18 months now. OOOOOWW DOGGIE, it is good.
Pardon my excitement.
