The Mixologist
Whenever you meet new people it’s inevitable they will ask, “So, what do you do?” Well, great question...
My name is Gabrielle J. Greene and I'm the owner of Greene Olives LLC. The video you see is me, teaching a cocktail workshop in Bisbee, Arizona. With over 15 years of sweat equity under my belt, I’ve become a bit of a chameleon in this industry. I've worked in dive bars, whiskey bars, beer gardens, nightclubs, lounges, banquet halls, and fine dining establishments.
I’m a mixologist who loves and appreciates the art of infusing natural ingredients using fruits, spices, herbs, bitters, tinctures, syrups, and purées to create an unforgettable cocktail experience. Creating anything with tequila is my favorite.

I’m a licensed and insured beverage caterer. I’ve worked on all different kinds of private events but weddings are my favorite. Something about an open bar, good vibes, and love in the air seems to be the perfect cocktail for a priceless experience. My second favorite would probably be birthdays. Especially when they're themed.
I’m a beverage instructor. With all this knowledge the next best thing I can do is share it. I began teaching later in my career and have certified thousands of aspiring bartenders. Anyone who had my class can tell you there’s never a dull moment. Between storytelling, swearing, and dance breaks, my students learned hundreds of recipes, cocktail history, alcohol management, and customer service.
I’m a beverage consultant who loves working with start-up bars and restaurants. Hungry for success, I love working with people who are excited and filled with innovative ideas. I create cocktail programs that complement concepts and cultures. I’ve trained staff and set up bars to ensure they’re functional and have an organized feng shui. It’s a lot of work but seeing it all come together on opening night makes it all worth it.
