They say that cocktails were "born" because of a misunderstanding. Say, someone with poor eyesight splashed juice into a glass, where there was still rum. From mixing two liquids different density turned out a beautiful color scheme, reminiscent of a cock's tail. This image gave the name to the new, which turned out to be also tasty, drink. Cock in translation from English means rooster, and tail means tail. Later they began to mix not only alcoholic beverages. It turned out that children like the combination of frothed milk, fruit syrups and ice cream. Lemon juice and mint harmonize wonderfully. You can even make smoothies with vegetables. These drinks are very healthy. But today we will talk about how to make alcoholic cocktails. At home, various devices that bartenders have are not always available. However, you can create a delicious and original drink without a shaker. And even make it a masterpiece.

A small introduction

Although we say that vodka without beer is money down the drain, nevertheless these two drinks do not get along well in a glass and in the stomach. Preparation of alcoholic cocktails is a delicate matter. Everyone can simply pour all the alcohol that is at home into one glass. But to create something very, very tasty is to some extent a high art. After all, it is important to understand what is in harmony with what and what proportions should be observed in order to emphasize the dignity and taste of all components. The design of the cocktail is also important. There are drinks "shot" (short) - they usually carry a large degree of alcohol. Such cocktails are served in a glass and drunk in one gulp, like vodka. "Longers" are designed for long-term savoring. Tall glasses are provided for such drinks. There are special cocktail glasses - with a thick bottom. They are designed to mix two types of alcohol. In order for the two liquids to combine, it is necessary to hit the glass on the table so that abundant bubbles form. And finally, drinks that need to be set on fire before serving look very impressive. Well, now let's look at how to make alcoholic cocktails at home. Recipes with photos of drinks - below.

"Hiroshima"

Let's start with the preparation of a classic and very popular shot in our area. Its formula is quite simple: Baileys liqueur, sambuca, absinthe are poured into the glass in equal amounts. Cocktail by appearance(and in terms of its effect on consciousness) resembles an atomic explosion. Two or three drops of grenadine (pomegranate syrup) will give the drink beautiful colour. If you correctly "lay out" the layers in a glass, you get something resembling a nuclear mushroom (it was he who gave the name to the cocktail that appeared in the 50s of the last century). First, pour 20 ml of sambuca on the bottom. With a spoon so that the two types of alcohol do not mix, add Baileys. In the same way add absinthe. You should have a layered liquid. The "explosion" is achieved by adding grenadine, which has a higher density. Drip it into a glass from a height so that it breaks through all the layers of alcohol. You can drink Hiroshima in one gulp, but the other way is much more spectacular. Set fire to the cocktail, lower the straw to the bottom of the glass and quickly drink the contents while the absinthe burns. Hurry is needed because the tube can melt from the fire.

Cocktail "Mojito" alcoholic

And now this is a longer. It is good to serve it in the heat or on a warm summer evening. We lower the washed and wiped mint leaves into a tall glass. Squeeze juice from a quarter of a lime. Add ice cubes. Girls love Mojitos to be sweet. In this case, we include 20 milliliters of chilled sugar syrup in the cocktails. Then add tonic. Who loves a stronger drink - 50 ml. Well, whoever wants to stay sober can splash a hundred milliliters of non-alcoholic tonic. Finishing touch- adding white rum. It can be poured from twenty to forty milliliters. If you don’t have any cocktail tinsel at home (twisted tubes, decorative umbrellas, etc.), decorate the wall of the glass with a circle of lime, and place two whole mint leaves on the surface of the drink.

sangria

This type of summer crochet came to us from Spain, where refreshing alcoholic cocktails at home are very popular. Sangria is served in a large glass jug with a scoop spoon, poured into glasses. My orange and lemon and, without peeling them, cut into semicircles. We free the peach from the stone and grind it to get medium-sized pieces. We put all the fruits on the bottom of the jug. Pour a bottle (0.75 liters) of red wine. Cahors is usually used for such purposes. But you can experiment with other types of dessert or semi-sweet wines. Add three hundred grams of cold water to the jug boiled water. Cover the bowl with a lid and put it in the refrigerator overnight. In ten hours the fruits must give up their guilt fresh fragrance, and alcohol - to soften the peach and citrus fruits.

Christmas mulled wine

Recipes - with photos - of mulled wines will help you brighten up the long autumn and winter evenings. This drink was invented by the Germans. Mulled wines warm, amuse, moderately intoxicate.

Add one hundred grams of sugar, five cloves, a pinch of cinnamon, on the tip of a knife nutmeg. Three lemon zest. If desired, you can pour a couple of drops of citrus or lime juice.

Add one and a half teaspoons of honey and pour a little (30-50 ml) semi-sweet wine or champagne into the bowl. Beat for another two or three minutes. Pour into tall glasses.

"Champagne Kobler"

Cocktails can contain several types of alcohol at once. Try the dizzying (in the truest sense of the word) "Champagne-Kobler" - with liquor, cognac and champagne. This cocktail does not require cubes, but finely crushed ice. Fill a champagne glass halfway with it. If there is no shaker, we will use a regular jar with a lid. Mix there 30 milliliters of cognac, liquor and sugar syrup, a little lime juice or citric acid. We beat everything well. Pour into a glass, put canned fruits(for this purpose, cocktail cherries are ideal) and pour champagne to the top. Serve with a straw.

"Margarita"

All of the above delicious alcoholic cocktails are aperitifs. Another drink that whets the appetite is Margarita. Born in Mexico, she has become popular all over the world.

Usually they include sweet liqueurs, sometimes cream, ice cream, soda. Here is the prescription coffee cocktail. The main secret its preparation - the sequence of laying the components. If it is broken, the drink will not foam. We put a spoon with a slide on the bottom of a highball (high glass) instant coffee. Pour 100 grams of Pepsi-Cola. Add 25 ml of white tequila. Throw in a few ice cubes.

"Brandy Alexander"

Here is another cocktail-digestif. It is very easy to prepare. Mix equal amounts of brandy, Cream de Cacao liqueur and cream. In this recipe, it is permissible to experiment.
