Common Questions

What are the essential types of glasses needed for a home bar?

For a well-equipped home bar, key glass types include: a rocks glass for whiskey and short cocktails, a highball glass for long drinks, a martini glass for classic cocktails like martinis and Manhattans, a wine glass for serving wine, and a flute for champagne and sparkling wines. These glasses cover a broad range of drinks and are versatile for various occasions.

What's the best way to store barware to prevent damage?

To prevent damage, store barware in a secure, stable place where it won't easily be knocked over. Use a cabinet with sufficient space to avoid crowding glasses. Hanging racks for stemware and padded separators can protect delicate items. Keeping barware in a low-traffic area also minimizes the risk of accidents.

What is the purpose of a cocktail strainer?

A cocktail strainer is used to filter out solid ingredients like ice, fruit, and herbs from a mixed drink when transferring it from the shaker or mixing glass into the serving glass. It ensures a smooth, clean pour, enhancing the overall presentation and texture of the cocktail.
