Today marks our 4th year making cocktail video's on the internet. Back in 2008 we posted our first video on youtube entitled Everyday Drinkers: Perfect Mai Tai and today we look back at it all. We explain how we got to here and hopes for our future. We cover the incident with my son and his Leukemia diagnoses (with photos) and show a few clips of video's never before seen on Youtube from our first two guests. Some of the video is a bit 'rough around the edges' because the original footage wasn't 1080p.
