FAQ's
We've collated some quick fire Q&A's on the question to help you find exactly what you're looking for.
Why use a ball of ice in a cocktail?
A ball of ice melts more slowly than regular ice cubes, chilling the drink without diluting it too quickly, and it also adds an elegant touch to the presentation.
What spirits are commonly used in elegant cocktails?
Elegant cocktails often feature high-quality spirits such as single malt whiskey, aged rum, gin, or bourbon, which provide complex flavors.
How can I reduce the bitterness in a cocktail?
To reduce bitterness in a cocktail, you can balance the flavors with sweeteners like syrups or fruit juices, and by using less bitter ingredients such as certain bitters or liqueurs.
What garnishes can I use for an elegant cocktail?
Elegant cocktail garnishes include citrus twists, fresh herbs, edible flowers, or a single large ice cube or sphere, which add sophistication and visual appeal.
Can I pre-make elegant cocktails for a party?
Yes, you can pre-make elegant cocktails in batches and store them in airtight containers in the fridge. Just add ice and garnishes right before serving to ensure freshness.
