FAQ
How do I keep my drinks cold?

Can I freeze cocktails ahead of time?
Yes! A batch of cocktails can be frozen. Just place the bottles in an empty container and keep them in the freezer. To serve, just thaw them overnight in the refrigerator.
What's the most delicious cocktail?
Fresh ingredients make the most delicious cocktails. They should be interesting in taste and well-balanced.
It is important to mix quality spirits when making drinks. If you are using cheap vodka, you might as well drink water.
How can you tell if a beverage is strong?
The alcohol in strong drinks is higher than that of weaker drinks. Proportions are used to measure the alcohol content of a drink. One proof is equal to one percent alcohol per 100g alcohol volume. So a 12 oz. bottle of wine would be ten proofs, and a 16 oz. beer would be 13 proofs, while a 40 oz. bottle of scotch would be 45 proofs.
What are the most common drinks that bartenders need to know?
The most important thing a bartender must learn is how to make a perfect cocktail. It's not enough to just mix ingredients together. You must know what each ingredient does for you and why you choose it over another. A good bartender will know all of these things and use this knowledge to create a great drink.

How to make the best Manhattan cocktail
A Manhattan is one of the most famous cocktails in the world. Harry Craddock described the Manhattan in his 1930 book, "The Savoy Bar Book". This cocktail consists of equal amounts sweet vermouth, dry Vermouth, and rye whiskey mixed with ice cubes. Some people add bitters and orange juice to the cocktail. Many variations of the Manhattan recipe exist, including the Old Fashioned.
Manhattan is a classic cocktail consisting of four ingredients. It is served in a chilled glass. It's origins can be traced back to the 19th-century when it was known by the Four Deuces. This is because it had two measures whiskey, two measures rye, two measures vodka, and two measure of gin. The original recipe is still loved by bartenders, drinkers, and even chefs.
Some prefer to make bourbon, others prefer to make rye. Both can be equally effective. You should use equal amounts of each ingredient in a Manhattan. Two shots of rye, two of sweet vermouth and four of dry vermouth are enough to make a Manhattan. Eight shots of Gin is sufficient. Mix all ingredients together and leave to sit for 15 minutes. Strain the mixture into a bowl and serve. Add a maraschino or lemon twist to garnish.
