Easy Cocktail Recipes To Enjoy The Perfect Weekend
What with the buzz around the pandemic & the need for social distancing, we seem to have lost the sheen around the weekend vibes we got while the week ended. It seems now like a distant memory where we met up with our friends, in our favorite bar to laugh off our week’s (painful ;) events holding our favorite drink between our fingers. But hey folks, the love for our cocktails need not be kept away even when at home, for it serves as a weekend therapy for some of us. (LOL)
For me, the scene of a bartender mixing a cocktail is a sight to behold. It’s almost like a poet penning down his most exotic poetry on a paper (well, a glass here).
The need to ‘stay home’ (& stay safe), cannot let us drown the sheer love for our best-loved drink. So here we are with some easy-to-make cocktail recipes to pump up your dull home-stay weekends into a fun-filled rendezvous:
#CLASSIC MARTINI
007’s preferred drink is been around for quite a while now. Even the modern mixologists would admit to
its never-out-of-fashion & never-gone-wrong attributes.
Ingredients: Gin or vodka, dry vermouth.
...
... Starter recipe:
2 oz gin
1 oz dry vermouth
The first and the most simple step you should take is order alcohol online, get it delivered to your place. Mix the contents in an ice-filled mixing glass or a metal shaker. Strain into a coupe or cocktail glass & garnish with a lemon peel & olive.
#MANHATTAN
First poured in Manhattan (apparently), the drink derives its name from the ‘city of gatherings’. It has come to evolve with more than a decade old history, while some ingredients replaced with the other. Ingredients: Bourbon or rye whiskey, sweet vermouth, bitters (of choice & taste).
Starter recipe:
2 oz rye whiskey
1 oz sweet vermouth
2 dashes Angostura bitters
Try googling “liquor store delivery” and buy your choice of whiskey with just a few clicks. Your Manhatten ingredients will be delivered to you within minutes. Stir the ingredients with cracked ice & then strain into a chilled coup. Garnish with an orange or brandied cherry.
#NEGRONI
The fictitious yet legendary story of Count Camillo Negroni asking the bartender to use gin instead of club soda played a role in the nomenclature of this cocktail. A balanced palate of sweet, bitter & strong boozy flavor makes it a classic favorite.
Ingredients: Campari, sweet vermouth, gin.
Starter recipe:
1 oz London dry gin
1 oz sweet vermouth
1 oz Campari
Stir it all with lots of ice for 20-30 seconds. Strain into a chilled coupe glass. Garnish with orange peel.
#DAIQUIRI
Unlike its rep as a ‘girly drink’, a classic daiquiri is anything but that. It was first introduced by an American mining engineer in Cuba. This rum-based drink falls into another easy-to-make & easy-to-love category of cocktails. Check out the exquisite range of rum available at Drinkerrs and get it delivered to you through their highly affordable and reliable alcohol delivery option.
Ingredients: White rum, freshly squeezed lime juice, sugar.
Starter recipe:
2 oz white rum
1 oz freshly squeezed lime juice
¾ oz sugar (crystal or syrup)
Strain into a chilled coup after mixing them all in a shaker. Make sure the sugar is dissolved neatly if you are using it in crystal form.
