Stop stirring your cocktails with a fork, knife, or worse, your finger. You subtract professionalism from all the hard work you’ve put into looking for ingredients, measuring quantities and thoroughly mixing each one of them.
Better use this braided spoon, which is precisely for that. But what exactly is it for?
- It keeps the carbonic acid in the glass while the mixture is made.
- It helps when removing the ice before pouring the liquid, in order to cool the glass.
- It favors the infusion of botanicals, you can also add them without touching them.
And why is it braided? Why isn’t it a straight spoon? Well, according to cocktail experts, it is braided by the handle because it favors the preparation of layered cocktails.
Apart from all this, we cannot deny that having this spoon in your hands is equal to being a classy mixologist (wink wink). And in front of your friends, it is great to prepare a drink with sophisticated and professional instruments.
By the way, if you want to surprise them even more, try these recipes:
- Chocolateini. If among your friends there are real chocolate lovers, prepare this cocktail for them. It has vodka, Irish cream liqueur, and chocolate cream liqueur. Serve it in a very cold glass and sprinkle a little cocoa before serving.
- Passion fruit. The star ingredient of this cocktail is passion fruit. Or what is the same, the passion fruit. The mixture is made up of vodka, passion fruit, and passion fruit liqueur.
- Picara mix. This one is special for friends who don’t drink alcohol. It is prepared based on natural juices. For example with tangerine juice, strawberry, lemon, and a little rosemary syrup. It looks good, right?
Take home this spoon and start preparing delicious cocktails.
