Steve Roennfeldt, better known as Steve the Bartender, has been sharing easy-to-follow cocktail videos on YouTube since 2017.

He’s based in Adelaide, South Australia, but he’s built a global community of cocktail enthusiasts.

As at the present moment Steve has nearly 700,000 subscribers, which means he’s the country’s leading cocktail Youtuber and one of the top cocktail-related accounts globally.

His debut book, Steve the Bartender's Cocktail Guide, was released in 2022.

And he also co-owns Threefold Distilling, a Adelaide craft gin company that he founded in 2019 with two bartending mates.

I was introduced to Steve recently by a mutual friend and have been seriously impressed by everything he’s achieved.

First up in this interview, I asked him about career background prior to becoming a professional YouTuber.
