Instruction
1. Serve till a lunch or a dinner cocktails aperitifs, such as Dry Martini, Manhattan, Kir, Americano, Negroni. These cocktails stimulate appetite and don't dull feeling of hunger.
2. Serve cocktails-diizhestivy, for example White Russian, Alexander after dinner. These cocktails rather strong and, if I may say so, nourishing.
3. Serve such cocktails as Margarita, Gimlet, Screwdriver, Gin Fizz, Tequila Sunrise at any time. Drinks enter into this group short (differently cocktails drinks of 120-150 ml, with a strength within 17-45%), long (up to 350 ml and more, with a strength of 7-17%) and hot (volume about 40 ml, with a strength of 12-35%).
4. Pour before giving cocktails with ice in glasses ""toggle-switch"" (a glass with convex, round sides), ""Olt фэшн"" (low, almost square glass of proportions) or ""highball glass"" (looks as a usual tall smooth glass). Pour cocktails which are cooked in a shaker and give without ice to glasses with a leg.
5. Decorate glasses for dessert cocktails and cocktails with fruit decorative hoarfrost. It represents a sugar rim on a glass edge.
6. Take lemon segment, squeeze out of it juice, but not dry and so that it didn't splash, and it was necessary to squeeze out it with effort. Moisten edge of a glass about 1 centimeter wide with lemon juice from this segment from within and outside.
7. Fill on a saucer of a little icing sugar or granulated sugar, lower a glass an edge in sugar that it stuck to the juice covering glass. If you want to receive "hoarfrost" with an orange shade, then grease edge of a glass with orange juice, but not a lemon. Pour cocktail in a glass to bottom edge of a sugar crust, otherwise sugar and juice will be dissolved and will spoil taste of drink.
8. Decorate strong cocktails and cold fruit punches, the berries and circles of a lemon or orange pinned on skewers. Make an incision a circle on radius, to the middle and get on edge of a glass or glass. Add the ice painted food natural or artificial by dye.
9. Squeeze out of a lemon crust of a little lemon oil, sprinkle it the strong cocktail served in ice-cream bowls: drink will be poured by all colors of the rainbow.
