He has two cocktail books, hosted TV shows and has his own signature branded line of Modern Mixologist bar tools. Tony has designed signature craft cocktails for multiple stadiums and arenas around the country, most recently Allegiant Stadium, home of the Las Vegas Raiders. In this episode, we discuss the cocktail that made him fall in love with bartending, his bartending journey from coast to coast and what it was like being tapped by Steve Wynn to develop the cocktail program at Bellagio Las Vegas (which at the time was arguably one of the most anticipated luxury hotel openings in the world). He\u2019s one of the most generous people we know giving back to organizations like Share Our Strength and the Helen David Relief Fund through his forthcoming TAG Global Spirits Awards. These days you can find him spearheading the cocktail program at Libertine Social at Mandalay Bay.
