FAQ

What size ice cube tray do I need?

What should I do if my cocktail drink gets too warm?

If you are worried about getting your drinks too hot when they come out of the freezer, put them into the fridge for 5 minutes before serving. This will ensure that they don't heat up as much.


How can I tell whether a drink is too strong?

Strong drinks have more alcohol than weak drinks. The amount of alcohol in a drink is measured in proof. One proof is equal to one percent alcohol per 100g alcohol volume. So a 12 oz. bottle of wine would be ten proofs, and a 16 oz. beer would have 13 proofs while a 40-ounce bottle would have 38. 45 proofs would be the bottle of Scotch.

How To

How to make the best Manhattan cocktail

One of the most well-known cocktails in the world is the Manhattan. Harry Craddock wrote the first description of it in his book, "The Savoy Bar Book", (1930). This cocktail consists of equal amounts sweet vermouth, dry Vermouth, and rye whiskey mixed with ice cubes. Some people add bitters or orange juice, maraschino cherries, or Angostura Bitters. There are many variations on the Manhattan recipe.

Manhattan is a classic cocktail, made with four ingredients. It is served straight up in chilled glasses. It's origins can be traced back to the 19th-century when it was known by the Four Deuces. This is because it had two measures whiskey, two measures rye, two measures vodka, and two measure of gin. Today, the original recipe is still popular among bartenders and drinkers alike.

Some prefer bourbon to rye and others prefer to drink brandy. Both are equally good. Equal amounts of each ingredient should be used when you prepare a Manhattan. Take two shots each of rye, sweet vermouth, dry vermouth, and sweet vermouth. You will need eight shots of the gin. Let them sit for fifteen minutes before mixing. Strain the mixture, and then serve. Garnish with a maraschino cherry or a twist of lemon peel.
