Mixology is as much of a science as an art. From the precision in measurements and balancing the flavours, to the drama that is created in the glass, a lot goes into the making of a cocktail. And, now, India is gradually entering the exciting era of sophisticated and layered cocktails, which are beyond just spirits and aerated drinks. Giving this growing trend all their love are two female bartenders, who have made India their home, and are stirring things up.

The world's a stage

Born in Poland, Agnieszka Rozenska, 38, first honed her mixology skills there and then in Amsterdam. Her journey began as she waited tables at Brama Jazz Cafe, a local bar in Szczecin while studying Pedagogy—Resocialization at the university there. Following this, she assisted bartenders in other bars and soon found her calling. As a bartender, Rozenska worked at GOKO Japanese Restaurant in PoznaÅu00c2u0084, Poland, Octans in Luxembourg and Bluespoon–Andaz in Amsterdam.
