DRINKWARE See Also: Drinkware Mixed drinks are served in Drinkware , usually some type of Glassware drinking vessel. Many glasses are named after popular drinks served in a specific style of glass (e.g., Old Fashioned Glass , Collins Glass , Champagne Flute , etc.). Not all drinkware is made of glass, though. Beer Stein s are often made of Stoneware , and some hot mixed drinks, like Irish Coffee may be served in Ceramic mugs. ALCOHOL See Also: Alcoholic beverage In alcoholic mixed drinks, Distilled Beverage s (e.g., Vodka , Gin , and Whiskey and Fermented Beverage s (e.g., Beer , Wine , and Sake ) form the base of the drink. MIXERS See Also: Drink mixer Alcoholic or not, mixed drinks incorporate some type of Drink Mixer , which adds sweet or sour tones (e.g., Simple Syrup , Sour Mix , and Grenadine ), carbonation (e.g., Soda Or Seltzer Water ), or a combination of both (e.g., Sodapop and Tonic Water ). Fruit Juice s, Dairy Product s, Coffee , Tea , and several other beverages are used, too. GARNISHES See Also: Cocktail garnish While certainly not required, a Cocktail Garnish adds a festive touch to any mixed drink. Generally, the more fruit flavors in a drink, the more festively the drink is garnished. More traditional drinks (e.g., Martini , Whiskey Sour , or Godfather ), the more conservatively a drink is garnished. Many non-alcoholic mixed drinks (like punches) may not be garnished at all, unless they are "virgin" (non-alcoholic) versions of traditional cocktails. SEE ALSO |
