BEHIND THE BAR

know families, I know their connections, what they do for work, I know their likes and dislikes.

So when I have a full bar of people, getting to know and feel comfortable chatting with them, asking them about their days and families – that’s definitely comforting for me.”

That same clientele can also surprise Gellar with an occasional unexpected request.

“I had a woman order a Sazerac from me,” she says. “It’s not odd, but it’s a super old-fashioned cocktail. I’d only made one before, many years ago, because it’s not something people normally order anymore.”

Gellar fell back on her training – which began years ago, (“My mother is also a bartender,” she says) – and whipped up the cocktail with just a quick glance at the finer points in the recipe.

ixologist Molly Gellar has been made to feel right at home since arriving at Positive Pie in Hardwick a little more than a year ago.

Gellar, 29, found her way to the Northeast from the Rocky Mountain State, where she attended the University of Colorado, Boulder.

Upon her arrival to the East Coast, she spent some time working on a farm in Maine, and then followed a close friend to Burlington before landing behind the bar at the South Main Street restaurant. And while it may have been a circuitous route, in the end it was a windfall for the northeastern Vermont establishment.

“She’s charismatic and does really well with our local customers,” Positive Pie Assistant General Manager Gabrielle Hopkins says. “She can spark a conversation with almost anybody and get them excited about different cocktails or drinks or food that they might not otherwise be interested in.”

Positive Pie sees some tourist traffic at its Hardwick location – it’s not too far from Stowe and Smuggler’s Notch – but it has a strong, year-round clientele made up of locals. And that’s what makes the spot feel like home.

“I think having that group of locals is what makes me comfortable here,” Gellar says. “I

“It’s really about being fresh, fun and flavorful.

It changes about two to three times a year based on the flavors people would expect in season and any produce that’s in season at that time – just making it fun. We just rolled out a new cocktail menu, and it is completely different from summer menu other than we kept one or two cocktails on that are popular.

I think the novelty of having new drinks to try, people enjoy that, and something that feels more wintery, people want different flavors in winter than in summer.”

What’s a unique cocktail you are known for?

“I think right now what we’re known for is a cocktail called the Hardwick Mule, which is new on our winter cocktail menu. It uses a local

gin from our town here, Caledonia Spirits’ Barr Hill, and we use their Tom Cat Gin, which is barrel aged in bourbon barrels so it has a nice combination between a gin and a bourbon taste. It’s a small, local distillery and we like supporting them. We use ginger beer from the Maine Root company, fresh squeezed grapefruit juice and we make a candy grapefruit peel in-house for a garnish which adds something different to it as well.”

GAME ON.

Share a behind the bar secret.

“The biggest thing, I think, is that I always try to put myself in the shoes of the customer. I take care to make things the same way I would make them for myself. I like to keep in mind that I’m mixing cocktails the way I would want to drink them. I do that and it keeps the quality of everything quite high.”

What’s your favorite part about working behind the bar?

“What I really like about this bar in particular, is that we have such a small, local community.

As someone new to the state, it’s been nice getting to know people in this town. In the winter when there are not as many tourists, I can look down bar and know the names of everyone there. It’s a nice way to connect with the community.”

“He’d a drop of the craythur every morn’.”

MIXOLOGY

– Finnegan’s Wake

A “drop of the craythur” is an old expression meaning to take a drink of whiskey – in this case, Irish whiskey, specifically. There may be no better way to start than with a classic whiskey cocktail, inspired by the lyrics of this humorous tune – a musical paean to the restorative powers of the spirit in question – in which the aforementioned Finnegan rises unexpectedly after suffering what was thought to be a grievous injury.

2 ounces Irish whiskey 1 ounce freshly-squeezed lime juice Ginger beer, chilled Lime twist for garnish Add whiskey and lime juice to a cocktail shaker and fill with ice. Shake until well chilled, about 15 seconds. Strain into an ice-filled highball glass. Top with ginger beer and garnish with the lime twist.

“There where the course is, delight makes all of the one mind. The riders upon the galloping horses, the crowd that closes in behind.”

Capture the Spirit

A

of St. Patrick

s the song says, “If you’re not Irish, it isn’t your fault.” With some planning and a little creativity, however, you can craft St. Patrick’s Day festivities as convincing as any Makem, O’Donnell or Behan.

As we dive head-first into the month that allows those with Irish lineage, and those who claim it, to celebrate their colorful heritage, a virtual avalanche of spirits recipes come to mind.

With an embarrassment of themed riches to choose from, it may make sense to fall back on the Emerald Isle’s seemingly endless supply of verse and lyric when choosing the appropriate drinks for a St. Patrick’s Day celebration. From playwrights to poets to songwriters, the ghosts of Ireland’s past have a few suggestions.

A horse racing event that traces its lineage back to a five day event in Knockbarron in the late 1700s, the races are now held on the last Monday of July at the Ballybrit Racecourse.

And where there are horse races, there will be juleps. Or, there should be. In this case, the Irish Julep seems most appropriate. ➔ O N T H E COV E R

The Irish Julep courtesy cosmopolitan.com

2 ounces Basil Hayden’s Bourbon ½ ounce DeKyuper Crème de Menthe 1 ounce half-and-half 1 mint sprig for garnish

Pour all ingredients into a highball glass filled with ice and garnish with the mint sprig.

Please drink responsibly.

“Once a fair and handsome seal lord lay his foot upon the sand, for to woo the fisher’s daughter and to claim her marriage hand.”

– The Maiden and the Selkie

There are plenty of Irish songs about the sea.

Rousing shanties can be counted on to spin yarns of pirates and adventurous tales of whaling and even extol the virtues of, well, Irish seaweed. This tune, however, tells of forbidden love that ends beneath the waves.

“So come fill up your glasses with brandy and wine.”

– I’m a Man You Don’t Meet Every Day

Add a little warmth to the proceedings with a brandy cocktail, prompted by the lyrics of this traditional Irish song. The song is told from the perspective of a rich landowner telling the story of his day while buying drinks for friends at the pub. Note: the pub is not necessary, but friends are recommended.

The Club Cocktail courtesy cocktails.about.com

2 ounces brandy ½ ounce maraschino liqueuer ½ ounce pineapple juice 2 dashes Peychaud’s bitters Lemon peel for garnish Strawberry for garnish Pour the ingredients into a cocktail shaker filled with ice and shake well. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass and garnish with lemon peel and strawberry.

Celtic Sea Breeze 2 ounces vodka 2 ounces lime juice 1 ounce simple syrup Club soda Basil Mint for garnish Lime peel for garnish

Add lime juice, simple syrup, vodka and basil into a shaker filled with ice and shake well. Strain and pour into a highball glass filled with ice. Add a splash of club soda and garnish with mint leaves and lime peel.

“In a shady nook one moonlit night, a leprechaun I spied.

In a scarlet coat and cap of green, a cruiskeen by his side.”

– The Leprechaun by Robert Dwyer Joyce

Of course, there are creative mixers who don’t need to attach serious references to their creations. There are historical elements to many St. Patrick’s Day drinks, but part of the Celtic character is possessing a quick wit and a light heart. Here is where the sweet, decidedly notvery-green concoctions thrive. Add a fun concept to a measure of sweet Bailey’s Irish Cream, and you’ve got a festive dessert in a glass.
