Can you remember any specific moment?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">After working in the hospitality industry as a waitress between the ages of 16 and 19, I began in a caf\u00e9 in the centre of Madrid, in Sol, where I worked with two Italian colleagues. One normal day, one of them, in order to serve a cocktail in a special way, stacked up three glasses on top of each other and made them balance. It may seem insignificant but at that moment I was surprised by the large amount of things that I could offer the world of cocktail making and I decided to look for a school in order to begin learning.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">I<\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">t was at <\/span><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">TG Fridays<\/span><\/span><\/strong><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">, a <\/span><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Hard Rock Caf\u00e9\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/strong><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">style bar. I was undertaking training on the cocktail making course and at the same time I got a flair course. At this bar during a Happy Hour I met my great friend Cristina after a flair class. Enjoying the atmosphere in the bar, the way of working, <\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">the good vibes&#8230; I think that all of that made me completely fall in love with the profession that, to this day, I continue to work in very happily.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2545 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sanzcocktails.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/img_7260-e1575555263963.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1242\" height=\"810\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sanzcocktails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/img_7260-e1575555263963.jpg 1242w, https:\/\/www.sanzcocktails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/img_7260-e1575555263963-300x196.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sanzcocktails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/img_7260-e1575555263963-768x501.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sanzcocktails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/img_7260-e1575555263963-1024x668.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sanzcocktails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/img_7260-e1575555263963-416x271.jpg 416w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1242px) 100vw, 1242px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Your first cocktail?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">After finishing my courses, I sent out CVs.

At present, this profession is still sadly dominated by men, but I believe that, over time and with the development of society this is something that will gradually be replicated and grow exponentially until we end up becoming truly equal in the workplace. This should always have been the case but due to circumstances that are beyond our control, it had still not been the case in this world.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Is it easy to get into the flair world?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Wow!

After continuing to walk along, disappointed by what I saw, night fell and I received a message from Juan Coronado, a friend who works as a National Brand Ambassador at Bacardi. It was an invitation to go back to Little Havana. I decided to go back and I was surprised to see that the district had completely transformed in contrast to day time and the night had given way to music and a festive atmosphere. It was one of the best nights in Miami where I was welcomed with a cocktail: \u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"><i>El presidente<\/i><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">\u201d, made from rum, white vermouth, grenadine and cura\u00e7ao. A fantastic drink that I have tried again in other places but it has never tasted the same. I think that it was a \u201cMix\u201d of music, atmosphere, drinks and good company that made my experience unique.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Tell us, who is your benchmark in the liquid world&#8230;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">I have a lot of benchmarks in the world of cocktail making: Simone Caporale, M\u00f3nica Berg, Julio Cabrera. They all embody creativity and flavour, I draw nourishment from all of them for my daily inspiration through their creations, their networks and their know-how. I couldn\u00b4t choose just one specifically as from one of them you can learn a new component in cocktail making and from another I would take their genuine style. I think that it is important to be clear about who can be a benchmark and who cannot, beyond picking just one.

But seriously, I think that what a bar must have, apart from the attitude of the team, is available space in it. If you have space, you have comfort. More people can get in to work, due to the visibility to clients and the organisation it allows, if the bar is spacious and organised, you create a very good image, but if you enter a bar where the bar space is small, the bartenders hit into one another and everything is disorderly, it is difficult to make a good impression and we all know that first impressions are very important.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">An ingredient.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Lime, I love lime.
