Created by Tim Warren and Matthew Hornburg, Netflix’s ‘Drink Masters’ is a reality television series that brings together 12 competent and world-class mixologists from different parts of the world. These innovative mixologists have to be creative and infuse, stir and blend unique kinds of cocktails in order to showcase their cocktail-crafting skills to the judges — Julie Reiner and Frankie Solarik — in front of them. The contestants are put through a series of different cocktail challenges to earn the title of the Ultimate Drink Master and win a cash prize of $100,000.
