    Nutella Cocktails, Tequila & Life After F1 with Nicholas Latifi | At The Bar

    What happens when a former F1 driver takes a pit stop At The Bar? In this episode, former Williams driver Nicholas Latifi joins us with tequila, strong opinions, and a surprising amount to say about Nutella. We start with a Tommy’s Margarita made using Nicholas’s own brand, Leve - a half-strength agave spirit created for people who want something between full-strength and alcohol-free. From there, we get into what it’s actually like to make it to Formula 1, why Nicholas never became a beer guy, how a racing driver thinks about travel, weight, and performance, and why tiramisu might be a little overrated. Then Jack builds Nick’s Dream Drink, the Monza Flip - a dessert cocktail inspired by Nutella, maple syrup, Italy and Canada, served with a freshly fried beaver tail on the side. It sounds like a lot - but, as always, Jack delivers. Hosted by Matty White and Jon Almond, with resident bartender Jack Sotti. — Follow At The Bar on Instagram: https://instagram.com/atthebarhq

    He's Drunk in Over a Thousand Pubs. We Made Historic Pub Crawls' Thomas Vosper a 300-Year-Old Cocktail | At The Bar

    There are people who love pubs. And then there's Thomas J. Vosper - the man behind Historic Pub Crawls, who has made pub crawling his full-time job. Thomas is a content creator, published author, and self-described professional drinker. With over 50 million views and a growing library of books covering London, England, Scotland, New York, and Ireland, he has turned a birthday pub crawl tradition into one of the most beloved channels in British pub culture. In this episode, we get into how it all started - walking into 15 pubs on day one, getting knocked back by ten of them, and finding the one that said yes. We talk about what makes a great pub versus a favourite pub, why pub crawls aren't just for stag dos, and how people are flying in from Argentina with a list of Thomas's recommendations in their pocket. There's a deep dive into the New York bar scene, the wishbones at McSorley's Old Ale House, and why Prohibition is the reason American bartenders are built different. Then Jack goes fully historical for the Dream Drink - a 300-year-old ale flip, traditionally finished with a red-hot fire poker plunged straight into the mug. We couldn't do it quite like that. Health and safety had thoughts.

    Jack Skipper Only Drinks Pints… So We Made Him a Cocktail in Disguise | At The Bar

    What happens when a pint-loving comedian walks into a cocktail bar? This week we’re joined by Jack Skipper - comedian, touring stand-up, and social media favourite known for his brilliantly relatable takes on British life. We talk pub culture, airport pints, the chaos of a day at the races, and why open mic nights still matter - even when you’re already going viral. There’s debate over kids in pubs. A strategy for avoiding “the fear”. And a serious discussion about why 4% lager might just be the secret to going the distance. Then our resident bartender Jack Sotti builds Jack’s Dream Drink - The Skipper - a cocktail designed to look exactly like a pint of lager and taste like a cup of tea, complete with Hobnob foam on top. It shouldn’t work. But it absolutely does.

    Shaken or Stirred? Inside The Connaught Bar with Ago Perrone | At The Bar

    Big Ben. James Bond. And a Martini trolley that’s become part of London folklore. In this episode of At The Bar, we’re joined by Ago Perrone, Director of Mixology at The Connaught Bar. Yes, we talk Martinis - a lot. But this conversation goes much deeper than specs and glassware. We get into stirred vs shaken (and whether you’d ever correct James Bond), what it really takes to sustain world-class standards over nearly two decades, and why Ago sees mentorship as one of the most important parts of his role. Along the way, we hear stories from behind the bar - including Pierce Brosnan as a guest, Russell Crowe’s unexpected cocktail order, and why people now come to The Connaught before they go to Big Ben. Ago also swaps sides and delivers a full Connaught Martini experience - bespoke bitters, silent stirring, and that unmistakable pour from height. We also explore Ago’s parallel life as an exhibiting photographer, how travel shapes his creative thinking, and finish with a Dream Drink inspired by Lake Como, Japan, and classic Italian flavours. As ever, Jack Sotti is behind (and briefly in front of) the bar, while Matty White and Jon Almond try not to knock anything over. — Follow At The Bar on Instagram: https://instagram.com/atthebarhq

In this episode, we’re joined by Crystelle Pereira - cook, author, Great British Bake Off finalist, and Series Judge on Amazon Prime’s The World Cook. We talk drinks (obviously), and plenty more besides - from unexpected flavour combinations to life after Bake Off, Paul Hollywood vs Prue Leith, awkward interactions with Robert Pattinson, and what it’s really like when the cameras stop rolling after the Showstopper. On the table: 🍸 A Miso Maple Espresso Ma-Tahini  🥛 Yakult reimagined as a matcha cocktail 🔥 Strong opinions on sweet vs savoury drinks 🎥 Honest reflections on Bake Off, identity, and celebrity encounters 🍹 A Dream Drink built entirely around Crystelle’s favourite flavours Jack Sotti is behind the bar, while presenter Matty White and producer Jon Almond keep the conversation moving - and occasionally stirring things up. If you like drinks with opinions, flavour combinations that shouldn’t work (but somehow do), and conversations that feel more like the third round than a formal interview - you’re in the right place.
