Sound familiar?
Tired of a Cocktail Menu That Looks Better Than It Performs?
- Drinks that miss your margin targets
- Recipes your team makes differently every shift
- Cocktails that take too long to build
- Menu items guests rarely order
- A list that feels too similar to every other bar
Your cocktail menu should be profitable, repeatable, and clearly yours.
Meet ANDREA
I'm Andrea, and I'm Here to Build a Menu That Works as Hard as Your Bar
Your cocktail menu should do more than look good. It should fit your concept, hit your cost targets, and give your team drinks they can make the same way every shift. I understand how frustrating it is when a menu feels creative on paper but fails in service or eats into your margin.
I've built and run craft bars in Panama and Miami, trained in award-winning restaurants, and competed in World Class by Diageo. I create original cocktails, cost every drink, write clear build sheets, and train your staff so the menu feels distinct, profitable, and easy to execute.
Your menu should sell, perform, and make your concept complete.
