Mixing drinks is easy, just a little mix of soda or fruit juice with a splash of dash, right?
Sure, when it’s just the guys but what about mixing a drink that’ll really have people feeling
thirsty? You’ll impress your friends - and the ladies – with your newly acquired flair skills as
you train yourself to create those perfect-tasting after-dark drinks... now there’s something
worth learning.
Here, we’ve put together a quick guide that’ll turn the novice mixologist into an alchemist of
alcoholic beverages in no time. Order up!
SUPPLY AND DEMAND
You’re going to want a fully-stocked mixes shelf so here’s what you’ll need.
Spirits: Vodka, gin, white rum, dark rum, whiskey, and tequila silver and gold.
Mixes: These include bubbly beverages like soda water, lemonade, ginger ale, tonic, cola, Sprite and flavored and
still water and fruit juices. You’ll need vermouth, a variety of liqueurs and aperitifs and of course, bitters.
Garnishes: These are the fruity dressings and here you can really express your inner bartender using mint
leaves, berries, lime, and slices of fruit like lemon, apple and even pineapple.
Make sure you have enough ice too, crushed or regular, to keep your drinks nice and chilled.
