Glassware Tip

Chill your cocktail glass in the freezer for 10-15 minutes before serving. A cold glass keeps your drink at the perfect temperature longer and adds an elegant frosted appearance.

Fresh Citrus Tip

Always squeeze fresh citrus juice rather than using bottled. Roll the fruit on the counter before cutting to release more juice, and strain out seeds and pulp for a smoother drink.

Bitters Tip

Bitters are like salt in cooking - a few dashes balance and enhance other flavors. Experiment with different bitters varieties to create unique flavor profiles.

Did You Know?

Gin's distinctive flavor comes from juniper berries, though modern gins feature a wide variety of botanicals from around the world.
