Choosing Cocktail Jigger Sizes



easy vodka cocktails

There are several different cocktail jigger sizes. There are two choices: one jigger, or a double. You also have Japanese jiggers as well as measuring cups. These will help you make a cocktail in just the right amount. You can also purchase a jigger to measure the ounces, instead of the liquid.

Single jigger

The correct size of a jigger is important when creating cocktails. The 5 ounce size is ideal for measuring out an entire cocktail. However, these sizes will not work with all glasses. Another option is to choose a jigger which has a smaller base so that it can be poured into smaller glasses. To avoid spillages, the jiggers must be held near the rim of your glass.

Mixing drinks correctly requires the use of the right amount and mix of alcohol. A cocktail jigger is a measuring tool shaped like an hourglass. It saves money by measuring the alcohol in cocktails. It also helps professional bartenders make the best possible drinks.

How To

How To Make The Best Brandy Alexander Recipe

Finding the right ingredients is the first step to making a cocktail recipe. For this drink, we're going to use Cognac, which is a French distilled spirit made from fermented grapes. You will usually find it clear, but you may see it aged in oak barrels. Cognac can be purchased at specialty liquor stores or online retailers such as Amazon.com.

Next, we'll add some simple syrup. Simple syrup simply means sugar dissolved with water. Over medium heat, we will dissolve 1 cup of granulated brown sugar in a small saucepan. Stir the sugar until it is completely dissolved (about 5 minutes). You should add enough cold tap water to completely cover the sugar. Let sit overnight. Strain out the sugar crystals through cheesecloth and discard them. For up to 3 weeks, store any liquid in an airtight container in the fridge.

We're going to mix Cognac and simple maple syrup together for our Brandy Alexander cocktail. Combine the Cognac with simple syrup in a shaker. Fill it half-way with ice cubes. Fill the rest of the way with simple syrup. Mix vigorously for 10 seconds. Strain into chilled martini glasses. Finish the Brandy Alexander by adding a splash more soda water. Garnish it with a lemon twist.
