FAQ
Why do people sometimes call a cocktail "a martini"?
When Americans began to drink more alcohol, in the early 1900s, any drink containing alcohol was called a "martini". The term "martini" eventually came to refer to a special type of martini that was made with dry rather than sweet Vermouth.
Can I freeze my drinks?
But there are some precautions that you need to take. First, be sure to label all of your bottles, so you know which ones have been frozen. Fill your bottles no more than halfway. Otherwise, your drink might overflow or spill out of the bottle. Finally, if you plan on freezing your drinks, wait at least two hours after opening the bottle before you pour the contents into another container.
What happens if you add more ingredients to your drink?
When adding too many ingredients to your drink, you will dilute the flavors. This means that some of the original flavors will disappear.
How many types of liquors are there?
There are hundreds and thousands of different types of liquor. There are many different types of liquor, including distilled spirits such as vodka, rum, and even tequila. But there are also flavored liquors like amaretto and apple brandy. There are also cordials, liqueurs and fruit wines.
How long does it take to make a batch of homemade frozen cocktails?
It depends on how many cocktails your are making. For example, 12 cocktails can take about 20 minutes. For 24 cocktails it will take you 40 minutes.
What are good mixed beverages to order at a pub?
An Old Fashioned is something I recommend. It is a classic cocktail that includes bourbon whiskey with sugar syrup, bitters and water.
This drink is named after the fact that it was originally made without any ice. The original recipe contained only whiskey, sugar and bitters.
People started to add ice to the mixture and they added "Old-Fashioned", to the title, because they thought the old-fashioned version tasted more delicious.
You might also consider a Manhattan. This is another great option. This is essentially a variant on the Old Fashioned. Instead of using bourbon, you use rye whiskey. Sweet vermouth is also used instead of sugar.
Bartenders love this recipe because it is simple to make and tastes great.
What is the difference between blenders and shakers?
Shakers are typically made of metal and available in different sizes. Blenders are made from plastic and come in a range of shapes.

How To
How to Order Drinks at the Bar Without Embarrassing Yourself
There are many ways to order drinks at the local bar, but these methods require you to know what kind of drink you want before you go up to the counter. Ask your server what they recommend ordering if you are unsure of the drink you desire. This way you won't be embarrassed when they make recommendations.
This is where you speak with your server, and tell them what kind of drink that you desire. It might sound like this: "I'd like to have a glass of beer." Next, tell your server exactly what type of beer you would like. For example, you could say, "A Budweiser." Next, tell you server which size you desire (e.g., small medium large). Once you are done, the server will give you the correct price and you won't feel awkward ever again.
