Garden to Glass Mixology Team

Garden to Glass is run by bartending buddies Michelle Stohlgren and Ian Hadder. They became friends while working behind the bar at a fast-paced restaurant in Truckee, CA. Armed with an array of bartending skills, Michelle and Ian broke away in 2018 to start Garden to Glass, Tahoe’s first mixology inspired mobile bar company.

We want to thank you for supporting Garden to Glass Mixology. We look forward to sharing our bartending skills with you and hope you leave with the same excitement for great drinks as us!

Wilderness efficinado turned cocktail nerd

My goal every year is the same: spend as much time outdoors as possible. Which is why you are likely to run into me on a trail or slope throughout Lake Tahoe.

I specialize in edible local fauna and aspire to bring a unique taste of the Sierra Nevadas to my cocktails. My favorite drink to make is a Manhattan with homemade vermouth and bitters. My favorite drink to drink is an arry of Italian Amaros.

Considered by some to be a walking encyclepedia of cocktail knowledge

I love craft cocktails. Conceptualizing, creating, balancing, building and of course sampling cocktails – whats not to love? I also enjoy riding all kinds of boards, and spending time with my amazing fiance.

My specialty is general cocktail knowledge
