How to Use Bar Tools Efficeintly and Effectively?
MOREA How-To Guide: Using Bar Tools - Shakers, Jiggers, and Strainers
Using a Jigger
1. Understand Measurement Markings:
- Learn the measurement markings on your jigger. Common measurements
include 1 oz, 1.5 oz, and 2 oz on one side, and 0.5 oz and 0.75 oz on
the other.
2. Hold Correctly:
- Hold the jigger at the base
to prevent heat transfer from your hand. Pour the liquid into the
jigger until it reaches the desired measurement.
3. Pouring Technique:
- When pouring, tilt the jigger slightly to ensure a clean and precise pour. Adjust your grip for control and accuracy.
Using a Shaker
1. Add Ingredients:
- Place all liquid ingredients into the shaker. If the recipe calls for
citrus or egg white, add those last to prevent premature foaming.
2. Add Ice:
- Fill the shaker with ice to the level of the liquid. This ensures proper chilling and dilution.
3. Secure the Shaker:
- For a Boston shaker, firmly press the glass and metal parts together.
For a Cobbler shaker, close the lid and ensure a tight seal.
4. Shake Vigorously:
- Hold the shaker with both hands and shake vigorously for about 10-15
seconds. Strain the liquid into the glass, using the strainer.
Using a Strainer
1. Select the Right Strainer:
- Use a Hawthorne strainer for shakers and a Julep strainer for stirring glasses. Ensure a secure fit to prevent spills.
2. Position the Strainer:
- Hold the strainer over the mixing vessel or glass at a slight angle.
The spring or holes should face down, preventing ice or other solids
from entering the drink.
3. Pour the Cocktail:
- Pour the
liquid from the shaker or mixing glass through the strainer into the
serving glass. The strainer catches ice and other ingredients, allowing
only the liquid to pass through.
General Tips for Bar Tools
Practice Consistency:
Develop a consistent pouring technique with the jigger to ensure accurate measurements in each cocktail.
Clean Immediately:
Clean your bar tools immediately after use to prevent flavors from transferring between different cocktails.
Experiment with Shaking Styles:
Experiment with different shaking styles to find what works best for
you. Some cocktails benefit from a hard, fast shake, while others
require a gentler approach.
Master the Strain:
Master the pouring technique using the strainer to achieve a smooth and visually appealing pour.
By
mastering the use of essential bar tools, you\'ll enhance your
cocktail-making skills and elevate the overall experience of crafting
and enjoying your favorite drinks. Cheers!

Tequila
Tequila is a distilled beverage, made only from a specific cultivar of Agave Tequilana called 'Weber Azul' or Blue Agave, native to the states of Jalisco, Colima, Nayarit and Aguascalientes in Mexico. The Blue Agave grows above an altitude of 1500 m and are juicy succulents with spiky fleshy leaves.
Tequila is made around the city of Tequila 40 miles northwest of Guadaljara, and in the Jaliscan Highlands of Central Western Mexico. Mexican laws state that Tequila can only be produces in the state of Jalisco and a few limited municipalities in the other Blue Agave growing regions.
Tequila is 35% to 55% Alcohol by Volume (70 and 110 U.S. proof), it must be at least 40% ABV to be sold as Tequila in the USA.
Tequila is a distilled derivative of the pre-Columbian fermented beverage called pulque, made from the Agave plant. When the Spanish conquistadors ran out of their brandy, they started distilling Agave to produce a distilled spirit. This by 1600s was what Don Pedro Sánchez de Tagle, the Marquis of Altamira, began mass-producing in his distillery near modern day Jalisco and came to be known as Tequila.

However, we have embarked on a journey of manually updating the relative strength of cocktails, their flavour profile and in the future aim at providing approximate calories per drink too.
Blue Tick Project:We aim at manually validating and verifying each cocktail in their current context and mark them as valid, where, a blue tick would mean that the recipe has been verified and is 100% accurate while an orange tick would mean the recipe has low confidence.
Where as a grey tick would mean that the recipe has not yet been manually validated or verified recently.
