Women, please note -- you can now show your flair for mixing alcoholic drinks and conjuring up cocktails behind the bar in Delhi.

The Supreme Court has cleared the decks for employment of women as bartenders in Delhi's hotels and restaurants.

Dismissing a petition challenging the employment of girls in bars and restaurants for serving liquor, a bench of Justices S B Sinha and H S Bedi on Thursday also reduced the age limit of such bartenders from 25 to 21 years.
