Gathering ingredients

Gather all of the ingredients you need for the cocktail. First, go to the market or grocery store to buy fresh fruit, such as lemons, limes, or berries. Look over the recipe carefully and note which spirits you need, such as vodka, rum, or tequila. Also, make sure you have a variety of syrups on hand, such as grenadine or agave syrup. Don’t forget to stock up on any special additions, such as mint leaves or herbs.

Store all ingredients in an organized manner so that you can quickly find everything while mixing your cocktail. Keep fresh fruit in the fridge and place spirits in a visible place at your home bar. Place syrups and special additions within reach so that you can work quickly. Finally, check that you have gathered all the necessary ingredients and start mixing your delicious cocktail with great pleasure!

Preparation

Cut the fruit into equal pieces for an even distribution of flavor. Make sure the fruit is ripe and juicy for the best flavor. Remove any seeds or pits to avoid unwanted bitterness. Consider a mix of strawberries, peaches, and blueberries for a colorful and flavorful combination.

Create a syrup with a surprising twist by adding mint leaves, ginger or even lavender. Bring water and sugar to the boil and add your chosen herbs for a unique taste experience. Let the syrup cool before pouring it over the sliced fruit. Experiment with different combinations of herbs to give your own refreshing and innovative twist to the syrup.

Mix

Combine ingredients in a shaker with ice and shake vigorously to blend flavors.

  • Pour the measured amounts of all ingredients into a cocktail shaker with a handful of ice cubes.
  • Make sure the shaker is closed properly before you start shaking to avoid spillage.
  • Shake the shaker vigorously for 15-20 seconds to thoroughly mix the ingredients and harmonize the flavors.
  • Once you're done shaking, carefully open the shaker and strain the mix into a glass, keeping the ice contained.
  • Feel free to garnish the cocktail with something like a lemon peel or a cherry for a finishing touch.

Cheers and enjoy your perfectly mixed cocktail!
