Hi I am studing to be a bartender and must know a plethora of drinks. I must know what alchol to use and how much to pour what glass and garnish. Does any one have any suggestions on how I can use memory optimizer to learn and remember those drinks

Since you say there's so many Drinks for you to learn, I would say you have a great opportunity to do an ABC List. You can do an ABC List of ALL the drinks and create Auxilary Threads depending on how new the word is to you (otherwise you can just review the word). Some letters of the ABC list may come up on several occassions so use commas to seperate each word for that letter.

Depending on how many words there are.. you could just review the first word of each letter atleast 2 or 3 times the first day (using piggy bank time ofcourse)and then the next day you would start the same process on the next word of each letter and so on. After reviewing the whole list once, you can do that process again if you don't feel you've learned it yet.

I see it as an opportunity for multiple list too.

Abc for drinks.

How about an ABC list for all the drinks that use a particular glass?

ABC list for methods - those prepared in a cocktail shaker, in the glass etc.

Each time you add the drink to one of the abc list you also link the ingredients and the method.

If you do opt for making multiple ABC list... don't copy them from the book. Only add them once you made or learnt how to make them. So your list will grow as you are learning. When you go down the list during piggy bank time see what you can remember. Having actually made them will help make it easier to remember.
