How to Choose the right glassware for Cocktails?
MOREStep 1: Identify the Types of Cocktails You\'ll Be Serving
Determine the types of cocktails you enjoy making. Common categories
include short cocktails, long cocktails, stirred cocktails, and shaken
cocktails.
Step 2: Understand Glassware Types
Familiarize yourself with common glassware types such as rocks glasses,
highball glasses, martini glasses, Collins glasses, coupes, and
snifters.
Step 3: Match Glassware to Cocktail Types
Select glassware based on the characteristics of the cocktails. For
example, use a highball glass for long, refreshing drinks and a martini
glass for elegant, stirred cocktails.
Step 4: Consider Aesthetics
Choose glassware that complements the overall aesthetic of your home
bar. Consistency in style can create a cohesive and visually appealing
presentation.
Step 5: Assess Size and Proportions
Ensure the glass size is appropriate for the drink\'s volume and any
additional ice or garnishes. Proper proportions enhance both the
presentation and taste.
Step 6: Evaluate Glass Thickness
Consider the thickness of the glass. Thicker glass provides durability,
while thinner glass can enhance the drinking experience by allowing you
to feel the temperature of the drink.
Step 7: Build a Versatile Collection
Invest in a versatile collection of glassware that covers a range of
cocktail styles. This allows you to be prepared for various drink
recipes.
Step 8: Pay Attention to Detail
Pay attention
to small details, such as the rim shape and thickness. Glasses with a
thin, smooth rim provide a more enjoyable sipping experience.
Step 9: Mix and Match Thoughtfully
Feel free to mix and match glassware styles, but do so thoughtfully.
Ensure that the glasses still work well together visually and
functionally.
Step 10: Care and Maintenance
Follow
proper care and maintenance guidelines for your glassware. Handwash
delicate glasses, avoid using abrasive materials, and store them in a
safe place to prevent breakage.
Step 11: Enjoy the Experience
Ultimately, the right glassware enhances the enjoyment of your
cocktails. Choose thoughtfully, and appreciate the visual and aromatic
qualities each glass brings to your drinking experience.
Additional Tips for Glassware Selection
Tip 1: Consider the Base Shape
Pay attention to the base shape of the glass. Glasses with a wide base provide stability, which is important for drinks with ice or elaborate garnishes.
Tip 2: Experiment with Stem Heights
Experiment with different stem heights for stemmed glassware. Taller stems can add elegance, while shorter stems may be more practical for storage and stability.
Tip 3: Assess Rim Styles
Different rim styles, such as straight, flared, or rolled, can affect the way you sip your drink. Choose rim styles that enhance the overall drinking experience.
Tip 4: Invest in Durability
Consider the durability of your glassware, especially if you entertain frequently. High-quality, durable glassware can withstand regular use and cleaning.
Tip 5: Create a Theme
Consider creating a theme for your glassware collection. Whether it\'s a cohesive color scheme or a specific design aesthetic, a themed collection can add a curated and stylish touch to your home bar.
Choosing
the right glassware for cocktails is an art that combines practicality
with aesthetics. By understanding the characteristics of different glass
types and considering the specific needs of your favorite cocktails,
you can build a stylish and functional glassware collection for your
home bar. Cheers!

Bacardi Apple Rum
Rum is a liqour that originated in the West indies and is made by fermenting then distilling sugarcane molasses or sugarcane juice. The distillate is usually a clear liquid and is then aged in oak barrels.
Most Rums are produced in the Caribbeans and American countries, but are now produced in other sugar producing countries like PHilippines and Taiwan.
The first recorded mention of Rum comes from Barbados, in about 1650. They were originally called "kill-devil" or "rumbullion" and later on, simply Rum.Apple Schnapps
Schnapps is an alcoholic beverage that has no single form, it is in general a grain spirit that has a fruity, spicy and herbal flavour in it. It can thus be created the way liqueurs are created by steeping botanicals in grain spirits and filtering, or like a brandy be distilled from a fruity wine, or even simple infusion of botanicals, syrups or even artificial flavouring agents in a neutral spirit.
Schnapps are typically raspberry, apple, pear, plum, peach, cherry or appricot flavoured.
In Europe Schnapps usually takes the form of an Obstler or Obstbrand, which are traditionally made by fermenting macerated fruit and then distilling the fermented liquor in a process akin to the process of making a brandy.
Obstler ( the German for Fruit, Obst ) has similarity with several verities of Rakija of the Balkans and Easter Europe.
The other form that a Schnapps can take in Europe is a Geist. Geist is created by steeping and infusing berries into neutral spirits for weeks and then distilling it. This too is pretty similar to a fruit brandy.
The third form a Schnapps takes is of a liqueur, these are created the same way all liqueurs are created by infusing fruits, berries and herbs in neutral spirits and filtering the product into a clear liquid.
In America, Schnapps take the form of an inexpensive, heavily sweetened liqueur. American Schnapps are typically between 15% and 20% ABV (30–40 proof), while European Schnapps are usually 30% to 40% ABV or 60-80 US proof.Pisang Ambon Liqueur
Pisang Ambon is a Dutch liqueur brand produced and marketed by the House of Lucas Bols.
Pisang Ambon has a tropical fruit flavour and a bright green colour with a prominent banana flavour. As the name would suggest, Pisang Ambon is based on an old Indonesian liqueur recipe. A purple version also exists now, it is named Pisang Ambon Guaraná Lime.Sprite Soda
Soda refers to carbonated water, sweetened, flavoured or plain, but there is a difference between Soda and plain Carbonated Water or Sparkling Water, which is known as Seltzer Water, while Seltzer Water is plain water carbonated to add fizz, Soda water contains potassium bicarbonate and potassium sulphate in the water, and according to research Seltzer Water is safer for teeth health and sparkling water provides true hydration and is better at it than regular soda or diet soda.

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.
