In my opinion, they are always best served chilled, and one
way of achieving this is with crushed ice - there’s nothing worse than massive
chunks of ice in your cocktail. An easier solution than ice cubes, a plastic
bag and a rolling pin (which never works out well, and doesn’t look very
professional) is a hand operated ice crusher, not only is it quick and simple to
use but it looks nice on the bar too.
To get you started with all your new equipment, below are three
easy and popular cocktail recipes, along with the appropriate glassware to
serve.
