Bartender: The Secret of Making Cocktails

Angel Oga is a bartender at the Renaissance Sao Paulo Hotel in Brazil, a subsidiary of Marriott International. In his glorious career over the past 47 years During his professional career, he has won numerous awards from international competitions for his unique bartending skills. At the same time, he is also the author of the book "Cocktails and Their Art". Now Angel shares his secrets with you, so that you can make cocktails with perfect color, aroma and taste at home:

Basic tools: The cocktail-making corner should be close to a power source, and a well-equipped bar should have the following tools: stainless steel cocktail mixer, strainer, cocktail garnish container, measuring cup, napkin, ice bucket with spatula, juicer, stirrer, Table knives, small cutting boards, corkscrews, blenders, trash cans and rags.

Tip: Keeping a rag and some common utensils on the bar is a common practice among professional bartenders.

Bar stocking types: Angel suggested a stock list of alcoholic beverages, liqueurs and aperitifs. These three types of wine can already make quite a variety of cocktails. Alcoholic beverages include bourbon, brandy, mixed whiskey, gin, liqueur, scotch, tequila and vodka. Liqueurs include amaretto, martini, triple sec, Crème de Cocoa, and Kahlua coffee liquor. Aperitifs include Campari, sweet vermouth and cassis liqueur.

Tip: Assuming you need two ounces of alcoholic beverage per serving of mixed drink, a quart can make 16 to 21 servings, and a liter can make 17 to 22 servings. Typically 2 drinks per guest in the first hour and one drink per hour thereafter.

Modification: What makes a cocktail unique is the mixture of ingredients. Angel strongly advises against using packaged juice to make cocktails. Although it saves time, the quality of the drink made with freshly squeezed juice will be more delicious and this drink is first-rate. The most commonly used mixed drinks are orange juice, grapefruit juice, plum juice, soda water, tonic water, cola and ginger beer.

Tip: Given its digestive properties, coffee also makes an excellent after-meal mix. Cocktails can be served at parties, using hot or cold coffee mixed with a range of liqueurs, such as B&B, Bailey’s, Kahlua Coffee Liquor and Café Di Saronno.
