2 DRINK RECIPES: MARTINIS
ON THE ROCKS: Rock glasses vary in size from 5 oz. to 10 oz. The glass should be filled with ice, then pour house measurements into the glass.
STRAIGHT UP: Pour ingredients into shaker glass with ice. Stir or swirl in order to mix, chill and dilute the liquor, use a strainer to pour into a stemmed martini glass.
These drinks use gin, vodka, whiskey or scotch. The basic martini has developed different variations. If you are unfamiliar with the customer ordering a martini, you should ask the following questions:
Would you like Gin or Vodka? Which Gin or Vodka would you like? Would you like that straight up or on the rocks? Would you like it shaken or stirred? Would you like an olive or a twist?
IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT VERMOUTHS ARE LIGHTER THAN LIQUORS. Be sure to use put the vermouth into your shaker tin first to prevent the vermouth from floating.

3 DRINK RECIPES: SOUR MIX DRINKS
Bars use a mixture that has a lemon-lime citrus taste and is presweetened as the base for many popular and fancy drinks. It can come premixed in a bottle, as a powder to mix with water, or as a concentrate to be cut with water. It can be called sour mix, sweet and sour mix, or bar mix.
Drinks that contain sour mix should be rolled, except in rare instances. Sour mix will tend to layer in a glass, if it is not thoroughly rolled.
To properly roll a drink, place the pint glass on the bar mat and add some ice. Pour liquor in first, then the sour mix. The sour mix amount will vary depending on the glass the drink is served in. Rolling a drink is simply pouring the mixture from the pint glass, into a shaker tin, and then back to the pint glass.
Sour drink recipes are easy to remember because they are usually ordered by the ingredients that goes into them. An example is the whiskey sour. It is whiskey and sour mix and served in either a pint glass over ice or strained into a stemmed cocktail glass, depending on the customers’ preferences.

4 DRINK RECIPES: MIXED DRINKS
Mixed Drink is a term used to denote drinks made with liquor and juice/soda. Glasses or cups will mostly be 12 ounces but will have a high ratio of soda or juice to the liquor. This makes for a consistent taste in the drink. Be sure to fill the glass completely with ice, this contributes to the consistency of the drink. If there is not enough ice, the drink will be weak, as more soda or juice is needed to fill the glass. TERMS USED WITH MIXED DRINKS DOUBLE: When a customer requests a double, use 2.5 oz. of liquor, then fill with soda or juice. Then you double the cost of the drink. If a Dewar’s and water costs $7.00, a double Dewar’s and water would cost $14.00. SPLASH: When a customer requests a drink with a “SPLASH”, then you would add just a small amount which will slightly alter the flavor of the drink. TALL: When a customer requests a drink “TALL”, use a pint glass. The customer is requesting a weaker tasting drink. EASY ICE: When a customer requests a drink “EASY ICE”, the customer wants a weaker tasting drink but in the usual size glass the drink is served in. FLOAT: Some mixed drinks call for a liqueur or other ingredient to be “FLOATED”. This means the item needs to be carefully poured around the top of the drink as a final touch.
