Essential Techniques in Bartending to Make Fantastic Cocktails

by Duane Berkey June 1, 2022 565 0 Comment

Cocktails can surely make your day complete and make events even more special. Those are alcoholic drinks mixed with other ingredients such as fruit juice, lime, cream, lemon, and syrups. This kind of beverage is what a person needs to excite the night out and truly enjoy the elegant party!

But do you ever imagine making a cocktail for yourself or your loved ones? If yes, you should take a step into action for that imagination! In this way, you can have the chance to adjust the ingredients of your cocktail and make it just the way you want it. There are many ways to learn the essential techniques in bartending that will surely help you make fantastic cocktails. You can even enrol in a cocktail masterclass and let your skills be discovered and improved.

Aside from attending masterclasses, you can get your hands up first by knowing the basics of bartending. But, for now, you can read the techniques provided below to help you get the gist of various techniques to make cocktails.

Pouring

There are two ways you can do to pour liquor. These can be through using a jigger or doing the ‘free pour’. Using a jigger lets you have a more accurate measurement of the liquor thus, making a more balanced cocktail. However, many bartenders prefer doing the ‘free pour’ technique since it is a faster and efficient way. But then, free pour can be more vulnerable to beverage imbalance as the measurements are less accurate.

Muddling

It is a mixing technique using a muddler to crush various ingredients to extract fruit juices and flavours on herbs or mints. This technique is fairly simple. You need to place your ingredients at the bottom of your glass and then crush it gently using a muddler until you extract all its juices.

Shaking

This technique is required for making most cocktails in your bartending career. Shaking cocktails is one the quickest ways to combine ingredients while also cooling and diluting the drink. Also, it would help if you learned about the dry shake, which is used to create thick foams from cream and egg whites.

Stirring

This is another essential technique used to combine ingredients and chill the drink down but is done at a much slower rate. Remember that cocktails that are stirred aren’t as severely diluted as those cocktails that are shaken.

Straining

Straining a drink involves passing the mixture through filters to eliminate any particles you don’t want in the finished cocktail. Examples of these particles are ice shards, pulp, mixed fruit, and other substances that must not be included in the cocktail. Bartenders can use three different training tools: the fine filter, the julep strainer, and the hawthorn strainer.

Layering

This bartending technique entails pouring various coloured drinks on top of each other to see the layer of the liquids within the glassware. Layering can be done by slowly pouring the liquid onto a bar spoon so that each liquid floats on top of the previous. However, this technique is hard to achieve as it is delicate and requires a high skill level.

These provided techniques can be your simple guide in your career in bartending. Therefore, it is important to know first the foundation and basics of these techniques. However, if you want to step up your game, you can attend a cocktail masterclass and learn much more complicated techniques in the world of bartending.
