Can I use tap water for making ice, or should I use filtered water?
MOREUsing filtered water is recommended for making ice as it helps remove impurities and minerals that can affect the taste of your cocktail. However, if your tap water has a clean and neutral taste, it can be used as well.

Beefeater Gin
Gin is a distilled alcoholic beverage that has it's origin in medicinal liquor made by monks and alchemists across Europe. The historical Gin producing regions are Southern France, Flanders and Netherlands. Gin was originally created to provide aqua vitae from grape and grain distillates.
During the Middle ages, the newly found substance Ethanol was considered by Alchemists to be the water of life, and an aqueous solution of ethanol was in use all over Europe and had different names and is literally the origin of many spirits like Whisky ( from the Gaelic uisce beatha for water of life ). Today Gin is produces from a wide range of ingredients, which gave rise to numerous distinct styles and brands. The predominant flavour of Gin is from the Juniper berries and then each different distillery flavours it further with an assortment of botanicas or herbs, spices, floral and fruit flavours, in different combinations. Gin is commonly drank mixed with Tonic water but it is also often used as a base spirit for many gin based flavoured liqueurs like Sloe Gin.Strongbow Cider
Cider can be of two types, alcoholic and the non-alcoholic apple cider, of the alcoholic ciders, there are two varieties. One being, Hard Cider, which is a fermented alcoholic beverage made from apple juice, hard cider is akin to beer and is less alcoholic than wine. The other is, Dry Cider, which is also a fermented liquor made from apple juice, but the dry cider is allowed to ferment almost all of the sugar in apples and has less than 0.5% residual sugar and is more acidic and less sweet than Hard Cider. The yeast consumes the natural sugar of cider and makes the dry cider less sweet and highly alcoholic.
Dr. Mcgillicuddys Peach Schnapps
Peach Schnapps is a type of Schnapps with a peach flavour, made by adding flavour to clear grain spirit. It was introduced by DeKuyper in 1984, and quickly became the top selling Schnapps in America. The favour is intense and that makes it a favourite mixer in cocktails. These heavily sweetened alcoholic beverages are bottled with an alcohol content that varies between 15% and 40% ABV.
Although Peach Schnapps like other Schnapps are mostly used as flavorings and mixers in cocktails, they can definitely be enjoyed straight, and a Peach Schnapps is typically a summer or spring drink.
Peach Schnapps is usually mixed with orange juice or white lemonade, but are often used as mixers in cocktails with other primary base alcohol.
Peach Schnapps is the most favourite Schapps in the UK.Ocean Spray Cranberry Juice
Cranberry Juice is rich in Vitamin C and antioxidants, the compounds that fight free radicals and kills harmful bacteria. Cranberry juice is a home remedy for Urinary Tract Infection.
Pure Cranberry Juice is sour and bitter with very low sugar in it, and thus fortified Cranberry Juice is used for consumption and sugar is added to it for taste. The resulting juice tart and sweet and with a pH of 2.6 it is quite acidic and is an excellent substitute for Red Wine.
