Final Five Best Bartenders 2008

Dani Hoyler of Sheffield's

Her drink: Dani’s Lemonade (raspberry rum, lemonade and a splash of soda)

The backstory: “I’m a huge beer girl and I was a regular [at Sheffield’s] before I started working there,” says Hoyler. Not all of her customers are as fond of beer as she is, though. “We always have people come in who are like, ‘Do you have Mike’s Hard Lemonade?’ and we’re like, ‘Uhhh, no.’” That’s where this fruity alternative comes in.
