"As a bartender at Menjo’s, Melanie Mack has been livestreaming daily cocktail demonstrations on Facebook and Instagram around 9 p.m. to promote a Venmo fundraising drive for service-industry families, using an iPhone and a handheld stabilizer to film; she picks drinks on a whim (often inspired by music), keeps recipes simple so viewers won’t be intimidated, includes mocktail options for friends in recovery, and draws from the spirits in her home bar even while finding it hard to source ingredients like limes." - Brenna Houck
