Although the thought of a cocktail ingredients app is useful for many bartenders, it is predicted that people would not make use of it a lot.
There are millions of cocktail ingredients to buy but the most critical ones are lemon, sugar, cucumber, lime, egg-white, soda water, juice and ice. Don’t forget your chosen types of spirits. You also require a cocktail shaker because without one you cannot mix it properly and most drinks must be shaken and not stirred. A vodka martini is a great example of a cocktail that can be stirred as it is entirely alcoholic. Some add a lemon twist or olive juice. I would not recommend to ever mix a cocktail without ice. Even if it is served up without ice it should still be mixed or shaken with ice.
Classic vodka cocktails are most often very intense and a good example of that is the cosmopolitan cocktail. It is tough but the fresh lemon matched with cranberry juice counteracts it. Often people do not notice the alcohol in the beverage and end up rather tipsy as they go down so well. Most bars offer a large variety of goodies which is great because you must consume something if you plan on drinking a lot. Chips are a great option as they ultimately absorb the alcohol in your stomach which is essential after a large drinking session.
Some of the most tasty cocktails are gin or vodka based because they are most often basic enough to mix with many other ingredients. Some of the best vodka drinks are probably cosmo and zombie. The white lady cocktail and most lemon and gin based cocktails are a favourite for this time of year. Combining fruit with gin is flavorsome. Especially when rocked with ice and after adding some basil or cucumber. The mixture of gin and champagne is also delicious. A lovely and super easy champagne cocktail is made from orange juice and champagne, although you could also use prosecco or cava.
