FAQ
Why is a martini so great?
A martini is the ultimate cocktail. It is the simplest cocktail, but it has a complex flavor. It's equal parts gin- and vermouth.
Gin is made of fermented juniperberries. It is well-known for its refreshingly smooth flavor. Vermouth is a fortified wine that contains herbs such as wormwood or gentian. These two liquids create a delightful combination of sweet-sour flavors.
What size ice cube tray is best?
You'll need either a 6 x 8-inch or a 5 x 7-inch ice cube tray.
What are the best mixed drinks to order at bars?
I would recommend an Old Fashioned. It is a classic cocktail that includes bourbon whiskey with sugar syrup, bitters and water.
This name derives from the fact that the original recipe was made without ice. The original recipe only called for whiskey, sugar, or bitters.
When people began adding ice to the mix they added "Old-Fashioned," to the title as they believed the old-fashioned version tasted best.
You might also consider a Manhattan. Another great option. It's basically a variation on the Old Fashioned. Instead of using Bourbon, you can use Rye Whiskey. Sweet vermouth is also used instead of sugar.
Because it's simple to prepare, this is a favorite choice of bartenders.
What drinks to order at a bar for beginners?
The best way to start drinking is by ordering a beer. If you're not sure which beer you should order, ask the bartender.
Dry white wines are best if you like wine. If you prefer reds, try a light-bodied Pinot Noir or Merlot. Choose a martini (or margarita) for cocktails.
If you're unsure of what to order, say so and the bartender will help you.
