    Top 50 Cocktails 50 hand picked delicious cocktails to inspire, intrigue and tantalise your taste buds Our Top 50 Cocktails Over the past few years we’ve collated, tried, tested and been inspired by a host of amazing cocktails. From the classics to the new age crazy concoctions, we’ve enjoyed seeing what new directions bartenders and cocktail enthusiasts are taking. In this book we’ve collated our top 50 cocktails, that as a team we worked hard on to produce. We took into account the votes by all you amazing users on our site to try and maintain some sense of normality, while at the same time including some amazing inspired new creations. When we hit any heated discus- sions, there was only one thing for it - to taste test the cocktails to ensure we only chose the best. We hope you enjoy trying some of these as much as we did choosing and tasting them ourselves. Whatever you’re after, your favourite choice of tipple, or your mood we hopefully have included something to intrigue and inspire you. Nick Wilkins Make Me A Cocktail creator Equipment Cocktail Shaker You can’t get far with most cocktails without the staple of any personal home bar - the cocktail shaker. Add some ice to the ingredients within, shake for 10-15 seconds and strain into the required glass. Simple. Strainer Right after the cocktail shaker comes the strainer. Some shakers have a basic strainer built in, but to catch all those ice lumps or fruit pieces you don’t want in your finished product, a simple strainer suffices.

  • Trails of the Cocktail 5 14 18.Pdf
    Trails of the Cocktail Few cities can boast more historic significance in their cocktail culture than the Crescent City: birthplace of the Sazerac, Ramos Gin Fizz, the Grasshopper, the Hurricane, and (backed by one of the best apocryphal origin stories ever concocted) even the cocktail itself. In 1769 Spanish Colonial Governor of Louisiana Alejandro O‟Reilly issued a proclamation allowing one limonadier (lemonade seller), twelve taverns and six billiard halls to dispense alcoholic beverages. Closing time was ordained to be 8 pm, but bribes to the necessary officials extended the hours over the years. Rum came into the port of New Orleans and was taxed by the Spanish colonial government. Pat O‟s, Home of “The Hurricane” The “Hurricane”, the most popular drink at Pat O‟Brien‟s in the French Quarter, was created during World War II when liquor such as whiskey was in short supply. In order to purchase just one case of these preferred liquors, liquor salesmen compelled bar owners to purchase as many as 50 cases of rum, which was plentiful. In an effort to utilize the excess of rum, Pat O‟Brien's famous recipe emerged. The name came along soon after when a glass (shaped like a hurricane lamp chimney) was used to serve the popular rum cocktail. Don the Beachcomber (1907 — 1989), founding father of Tiki culture (Tiki bars, restaurants and nightclubs), enjoyed great popularity in the United States — mostly from the late 1940s through the mid-1960s. He and his friendly rival “Trader Vic” Bergeron are still remembered for their cultural influence.

Cut the ginger into smaller pieces and mix this in a food processor with some of the hot water until the mixture resembles mulch. Then add this back into the pot of water, turn off the heat, cover, and allow it to steep for one hour. Once cooled, strain the mixture through cheese cloth or a sieve, extracting as much flavor from the solids as you can. Discard the solids. Add the lime juice and sugar/syrup, stir. Let cool, then transfer to bottle(s). Store in refrigerator. Note: this will not yield a conventional, carbonated ginger beer.
