This title shows you how to make all the fabulous vodka drinks,
from the Screwdriver, Harvey Wallbanger and Sea Breeze to more
exotic concoctions such as the Chilli Vodkatini, Apres-Ski and
French Horn. It includes entertaining anecdotes and short histories
about each cocktail, with expert tips on how to prepare and blend
the ingredients, and how to serve the finished drink. It offers
handy advice on essential cocktail-making equipment, the glasses
and hints and tips, including creative ideas for garnishes and
decorations. It is a useful guide to the different types of vodka
on the market, from Russia, Poland, Sweden and Finland, as well as
vodkas that have infusions of blackcurrant, cherry and bison-grass
added. Simple, yet sophisticated, vodka is one of the world's most
popular and versatile spirits. It is always served very cold, then
drunk in a variety of ways: it can be knocked back as a quick shot
or sipped slowly; drunk neat or blended with other spirits and
mixers; or used to accompany dishes such as Russian caviar. This
book contains a selection of 50 vodka mixes that you can make at
home, from classics such as the Screwdriver to concoctions
including Kew Punch and Soft Fruit and Ginger Cup. Each recipe
begins by explaining the history of the cocktail - for example, the
Vodkatini was made famous by James Bond and is "shaken, not
stirred". There are also guidelines on how to serve vodka, the
bartending equipment you will need, the types of glasses that can
be used and tricks of the trade, such as crushing ice, frosting
glasses, making decorative twists, muddling drinks and steeping
vodka with fruit and chillies. The art of cocktail-making is as
appealing as ever, and whichever type of vodka mix you prefer, this
book will help you to enjoy a delicious tipple even more.
