Garnishes can make or break a cocktail by complimenting their flavour and adding a touch of elegance. If you want to add something extra to your drink, our quick guide will ensure your glass is decorated with the right flourish. Lime – use for margaritas, mojitos and drinks containing a sour mix to enhance their taste. Lemon – typically used to garnish drinks such as an old fashioned or a whiskey sour, but also work well with martinis. Cherries – delicious with piña coladas, Mai Tais and whiskey-based drinks to add a sweet taste. They also go well with anything that uses a sour mix but give any glass a vibrant look. Olives – Best used for gin-based drinks or vodka martinis. Avoid using with fruity cocktails and make sure you use one or three olives as two is said to bring bad luck! #cocktails #mixologists #cocktails #cocktailgifts #gift #giftideas

Do you know the difference between a cocktail and a mocktail?⁠ ⁠ • cocktail = is an alcoholic mixed drink. Most commonly, cocktails are either a single spirit or a combination of spirits, mixed with other ingredients such as juices, flavored syrups, tonic water, shrubs, and bitters.⁠ ⁠ •mocktail = are non-alcoholic mixed drinks meant to replicate the presentation and complexity of craft cocktails, just without the alcohol.⁠ ⁠ Good news to know that there's always an option to enjoy your vacations to the fullest!⁠ _____⁠ ⁠ #cocktail #mixology #drinks #cocktailbar #craftcocktails #happyhour #cocktailtime #drinkstagram #cocktailhour #travelfacts #comegoplay #universaltravelshow #travelportofgo #baroptions #vacationmode #lifestyle #luxuryvacation #familytime #summerfuntime #vacationtips

All of our cocktails come pre-mixed so they’re ready to shake, pour and enjoy. We take our mixology very seriously, which is why our drinks always comprise of three key components: Base – the spirit on which the cocktail is based such as rum, vodka or whisky. Modifier – the ingredient added to the base to give the drink character and tone down the potency. Popular examples include fruit juices, cream, vermouth and Champagne. Flavouring – these give the drink a finishing touch to enhance its taste and appearance. Bitters and syrups such as Grenadine are often used because of their taste and vibrant colours. #cocktails #mixologists #cocktails #cocktailgifts #gift #giftideas

The last batching video seemed to do great on all platforms, so there’s more where that came from;) Here’s another, entitled “How to Batch Cosmos for a Crowd” aka “how to not get stuck behind the bar all night”) with Cheeky Syrups and juices 😁 This recipe makes just over 20 drinks and is literally as simple as it looks. I used mandarin vodka but you can sub in alternate flavors or darker spirits (or non-alch) spirits if desired. You can also top with seltzer or sparkling wine if you’re feeling festive **though I recommend adding the sparkling to individual glasses to maintain the bubbles, NOT adding to the pitcher itself. Enjoy! #cocktails #mixology #batchology #cpg #beverage #beverageindustry #spirits #spiritsindustry #beveragealcohol #events #eventplanning #bartending #restaurants #fandb

Ever wonder how bartenders get those cocktails bursting with fresh flavor? Well, folks, it's not always fancy syrups and loads of sugar. Today, I'm letting you in on a little secret: frozen fruit is your at-home cocktail BFF! Here's the magic: Natural sweetness: Ditch the sugar overload and let frozen fruit add a burst of sweetness without the artificial stuff. Intensified flavors: Frozen fruit concentrates its flavor, making your cocktails sing. Think juicy mango margaritas or vibrant berry mojitos. How to Use It? It's simple! Just throw a handful of frozen fruit (berries, mango, peaches - you name it!) into your shaker along with your favorite spirits, citrus, and sweetener. Shake it up for a frosty and flavorful masterpiece. Pro Tip: Use a tea strainer to catch unwanted fruit bits for extra fancy presentations. Now get mixing and impress your friends with your newfound cocktail knowledge! #cocktailsecrets #frozenfruitcocktails #athomebartender #refreshingdrinks #summervibes #healthyishcocktails #mixology #bartendersecrets #drsunshinesecrets #minneapolis #stpaul #minnesota #craftcocktails

It's hot out there! Make a Peach and Mandarin Orange Bellini for the perfect (surprisingly refreshing) summer cocktail. Don’t wait for fresh peach season - this cocktail can be easily made at home with #cannedpeaches!   Ingredients: - 1 can of No Name Canned Peaches and Mandarins 796ml (one combined can), or another brand of canned peaches and canned mandarins 284ml. Cold cans are best. - 1 ice-cold 750ml bottle of Prosecco or Cava (sparkling Spanish wine). Instructions: - Blend in food processor - Add ice as desired - Gently mix in Prosecco or Cava   Tips for controlling the bubbles: - Make sure that everything is cold: fruit puree, Prosecco/Cava, and, ideally, your flute glasses. - Open your Prosecco/Cava 10 to 15 minutes before you plan to pour the cocktails, keeping it refrigerated. This will reduce the foam, but still leave plenty of carbonation. - If you’re making several bellinis at once, combine measured amounts of the fruit puree and Prosecco in a glass wine carafe and gently stir. Fill the glasses in a few small pours to maintain the consistency of each cocktail.
