In addition to the necessary spices, you can also prepare: coffee. Cream (thick and light). Coconut milk. Bitters. Glass decorations and headpieces Many cocktails are prepared with both solid and liquid ingredients. If a piece of fruit or vegetable added to the wine changes the taste of the wine, then it is a glass decoration. If it is just for decoration, it is a head. A most basic bar should have the following heads and cup decorations for use: Lemon roll: What you want to use is its skin. The way to remove most of the skin from a lemon is: first cut off the end, and then scoop out the pulp at one end with a spoon, so that you get an empty lemon shell. Cut vertically into ¼ inch wide strips. If a kind of wine needs to be "rolled", take out one and twist it into a curved shape on top of the wine, rub the inside of the skin on the edge of the glass, and throw it into the wine. Then stir. Lime wedges: Limes are rarely cut into rolls and are generally made into wedges. Orange slices: Do not squeeze the juice of oranges into the wine. Maraschino cherries, which are particularly sweet and have an unusually red (dyed) little thing, are actually paired with the head, because it does not add any flavor to the wine. But people who drink alcohol always like to take them out of the wine and eat them, so they have to put toothpicks on the cherries. Olives: Many people drink martinis and like to have 1 or even 3 olives in the wine. Use medium-sized olives with green pits-with bell peppers (it will change the color of the wine). Generally speaking, olives are inserted on toothpicks or plastic swords.
Then put it in the wine. Pearl onion: A glass of martini with a pearl onion (or two or three) instead of one or a few olives is called Gibson. Separately refrigerated, can be stored indefinitely. You can stick it on a toothpick. Celery stalks: Adding celery stalks will be the last step to make a blood mary. If you want to add some fun, you can add some celery stalks with ribbons.
