This week on Quench!: What’s new and hot in the world of the cocktail culture? Mark looks at some of the most recent mixology trends, including flavor-infused ice cubes, barrel-aged cocktails, bottled cocktails, cocktails on tap, and—wonder of wonders—the growing realization among bartenders that they need to be just a bit nicer to their customers.
