①? Shake it?
That is, put the ingredients and ice cubes into a shaker and shake the clock to mix them. In this way, materials that are difficult to mix together can be mixed together and cooled quickly with ice cubes. In addition, wine with high alcohol content can also grind off the edges and corners of ice cubes during shaking, thus obtaining a refreshing taste. ?
The order in which the ingredients are put into the blender?
There are different opinions on whether to put the base material first and then the auxiliary material, or put the auxiliary material first and then the base material, but we must operate in the order of the formula. After adding the ingredients, add ice cubes, reaching 890% of the pot body (4 to 5 thumb-sized ice cubes can be placed. ?
How to install the ice filter and top cover?
The operation is divided into two steps: after adding materials and ice cubes, tighten the ice filter and then cover it. If the ice filter and the top cover are installed at one time, the ice filter may fall off due to the increase of air pressure in the shaker during the shaking process, so don't bother to install the ice filter and the top cover separately. ?
How to shake a hip flask?
Press the lid with your right thumb, hold the shaker with your middle finger and ring finger, and press the body with your index finger. Then use the middle finger of the left hand to press the bottom of the pot from the first joint to the finger, and the index finger and the ring finger clamp the shaker. People who are used to using their left hands take the pot again, just the opposite. At this time, we should also pay attention to the fact that the palm of your hand should not be too close to the shaker to avoid heat transfer and make the ice melt too fast. ?
How to shake a hip flask?
First put the shaker on the left chest (the height is between the shoulder and the nipple). There are two kinds of shaking modes, one is a two-stage shaking mode that is repeated from obliquely above to in-situ and then obliquely below to in-situ again, and the other is a one-stage shaking mode that moves forward from the preparation position and then returns to in-situ to repeatedly do piston movement. No matter what kind of shaking method is used, as long as the materials can be mixed quickly and then together. The key point is to vibrate the button at the wrist, so that you can feel the rhythmic sound and try to keep your posture beautiful and generous. If you are not skilled, you'd better put the rice in a shaker and practice while feeling the rhythm in front of the mirror. The shaking time is calculated according to the shaking times, shaking 15 ~ 16 times, until the fingertips of the shaking bottle cool and frost appears on the surface of the flask. If you use eggs, whipped cream and other materials that are not easy to mix, or use a big shake flask to mix a variety of materials, shake it for about 20 times. After shaking properly, you can open the top cover, hold down the ice filter with your index finger and pour it into the glass. At this time, it is best to hold the lower part of the glass with the other hand. ?
The basic method of mixing wine tells you the first basic method of mixing wine-shaking. Let me continue to introduce you to the other three basic methods:
②? Stir?
It means to stir evenly, that is, put the materials and ice cubes into a mixing cup and then stir quickly with a spoon. At the same time, it also has the purpose of cooling materials. It is more suitable for mixing easily mixed materials or flexibly handling the original flavor of materials. ?
How to use the spoon and stir it?
Hold the spiral part of the spoon and stir. Hold the spiral part of the spoon with the middle finger and ring finger of the dominant hand, and hold the upper part of the spoon with the thumb and forefinger. When stirring, gently hold the spoon with your thumb and middle finger to prevent it from falling over. Turn the spoon clockwise with the back of the middle finger and the ring finger. When putting or taking out the bar spoon in the mixing cup, make the back of the bar spoon face up; When stirring, keep the back of the spoon facing the outside of the mixing cup to avoid the spoon from touching the ice. The number of stirring times is 7 ~ 8 times. At this time, you should also pay attention to the rhythm of the wrist buckle. After stirring, gently take out the spoon with the back facing up. ?
Mixing step?
Put the ingredients into a mixing cup in the order of the recipe, and then add the ice cubes. The ice cubes are slightly larger than those put in when shaking, until they are filled with 60% of the capacity of the mixing cup. It is best to use mixed glass that has been cooled in advance. After adding the ingredients, press the lower part of the mixing cup with the other hand without a stick spoon and start mixing. If there is less material, you can insert the little finger of the hand holding the mixing cup into the bottom of the mixing cup to tilt the mixing cup, which makes it easier to mix. After rapid stirring, fasten the ice filter and lift the glass. Press the ice filter tightly with your forefinger, and the rest of your fingers pick up the mixing glass and pour it into the cocktail glass. At this point, the other hand holds the lower part of the cocktail glass with your fingertips, so you don't have to worry about the cocktail glass tipping over. ?
③? Pour the wine directly (build)?
Pour the ingredients and ice cubes directly into the used glass. As long as you master the essentials, you will rarely fail. This is the easiest way to enjoy cocktail making. ?
The essentials and steps of pouring wine directly?
It is very important to pour the wine directly and cool the soft drinks and glasses in advance. Because the ice used for direct pouring is always cold, if the material is not cooled, it will become a light cocktail. The method is to put the materials and ice cubes directly into the wine glass and then stir to make it. It is enough to stir for 2 ~ 3 times. Pay attention to the situation of adding sparkling drinks such as soda water to the material. In this case, if the stirring times exceed 2 times, gas will escape and flavor will be lost. In addition, the same is true for cocktails made of various materials such as waterfall coffee. You should pour them gently on the back of the bar spoon. You should know the relative density of various wines, and similar wines will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. ?
④? Blending?
Stir and mix with a blender. Mainly used to prepare Fuzan cocktails and cocktails that need to be mixed with fresh fruits. Put the fruit and crushed ice into a blender and stir. It is interesting to stir these materials into a sherbet-like liquid by adjusting the amount of crushed ice. ?
