Expert Tips

Glassware Tip

The narrow flute preserves bubbles and directs aromatics to your nose. Never fill more than two-thirds full to appreciate the effervescence.

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.

Sweetener Tip

Make your own simple syrup by dissolving equal parts sugar and hot water. It mixes more smoothly than granulated sugar and allows precise sweetness control.
