Shake alcoholic drink. Cocktail Red Arrow

Manufacturer: Bravo Premium LLC

Origin: St. Petersburg, Russia

On the review, we have an alcoholic cocktail (drink) Shake with Daiquiry flavor. I've been eyeing this one for a while beautiful bottle in different stores. And yet I chose it for review.

Overview of the bottle and composition of the Shake cocktail. How many degrees does it have?

For a review, I took a bottle of 0.33 liters (330 ml) made of transparent glass, through which this cheerful liquid is perfectly visible. Appearance there's not much to consider here. Let's get straight to the composition. And in it is water, alcohol "Lux", sugar, concentrated juice multifruit (clarified concentrated apple, lemon and orange juice), lemon acid as an acidity regulator, Marmix Alco sweet food mixture (fructose, sweeteners: acesulfame potassium, sodium saccharinate, sucralose), flavors, including natural ones (contains acidity regulator E331), complex food additive opacifier (antioxidant E307, stabilizer E414, acidity regulator E270, preservative potassium sorbate), preservative sodium benzoate, food colorings E129 and E110.

It was very difficult to rewrite this composition. It is still so small and made on a transparent label, as if it is specially hidden from the consumer. But I didn’t expect anything else from the Shake Daiquiry alcoholic cocktail. After all, it is enough to look at it with these unnatural colors to understand everything about a large number of additives. The strength of this low-alcohol drink is exactly 7 degrees, that is, the alcohol (alcohol) content is at the level of 7% (percent). But let's try.

Shake Daiquiry flavor and aroma

He poured himself a strawberry-acid-colored liquid into a transparent glass. Aromatics, although extremely unnatural, but quite pleasant. You can feel lemonade with the taste of barberry, lime, lemon, strawberry and strawberry. And all this at once.

And on the palate, the low-alcohol cocktail Shake Daiquiri is sweetish and with all the same flavors as in aromatics. Unless it gives more strawberries. And alcohol, by the way, is almost not felt at all. These additions pushed him into the background.

My review of an alcoholic cocktail or drink Shake (Shake) and its price

I can't say that I didn't like it. I drank these 330 ml quickly enough, never grimacing, never again thinking about something unpleasant. I will not reproach myself while drinking that I am doing something wrong. You will never get pleasure from anything. But in the end, I still understand that this is chemistry all the way. Under no circumstances should one get carried away with such things. It's better to drink beer than such cocktails.

The price of the alcoholic drink Shake Daiquiry (Shake Daiquiry) is standard for similar cocktails presented in our stores. So you can buy a try. It is quite possible that you will like it. It is not forbidden to drink one bottle. Just please don't get carried away. I end my review with this. Thank you for stopping by!

Cocktail - alcoholic or not alcoholic drink consisting of two or more ingredients. However, this does not mean that you can simply pour all the ingredients into a glass at random and get an exquisite drink. The fact is that liqueurs, juices, strong alcohol and other liquids have different density, taste and other characteristics.

Secrets of mixology. Good cocktail is a balance between strong and weak, sour and sweet, dense and light.

The main high-grade components of cocktails are vodka, gin, rum. Less strong - wine (sparkling or still), liquor. Per sour taste citrus fruits are responsible, and sugar and syrups bring sweetness.

Cocktail ingredients fall into three categories:

  • Base - strong spirits like vodka, whiskey, rum, brandy, etc.
  • Modifier - a drink that dilutes the base and reduces the strength of the entire composition, brings the desired taste and aroma to the bouquet. For example, vermouth, wine, fruit juice, in some cocktails - egg yolk and / or protein, cream.
  • Flavoring. An ingredient that adds additional notes to the bouquet and/or changes the color of the cocktail, such as bitters, grenadine syrup, etc.

Most often (unless something else is stated in the recipe), these components are added in exactly the order indicated, that is, from a strong base to low-alcohol or non-alcoholic modifiers and flavors.

How to mix cocktail ingredients

Build

Build (build, English "build"). The simplest method: a cocktail is created directly in a glass, glass or glass. Ingredients can be poured in at the same time or in turn, depending on the recipe. The method is divided into two subtypes:


Layering (layering, from English layer - layer). This is how the famous layered cocktails are obtained, first of all, of course. The ingredients are carefully laid in layers, from the densest to the lightest. The base layer is usually formed by liqueurs, followed by strong alcohol and / or juices. There are exceptions: for example, sambuca is first poured into the Hiroshima cocktail, and only then Baileys - this is how Irish Cream seeps through transparent alcohol in thin streams and creates a miniature illusion of a nuclear mushroom. Other classic representatives of the style are B-52, "Mexican Green".


layering

Stir

Stir (steer, English "mix"). In the mixing glass filled with ice, the components are poured one by one according to the principle of increasing degrees. Everything is gently mixed with a bar spoon and poured into a glass for serving through a strainer so that the ice remains in the glass. The result is a chilled cocktail without adding ice cubes to it (the minus of ice is that it melts, changing the taste and lowering the strength of the drink). An example of a cocktail made using this method is the Dry Martini.


steer

shake

Shake (shake, English "shake"). This method of making cocktails is necessary for mixing the ingredients different density. First, the shaker is filled with ice by ¾, then the ingredients of the cocktail are added, closed and the vessel is shaken well for 20-30 seconds, making sure that the liquid shakes properly. Finally, the finished drink is poured into a glass, while filtering from ice particles and fruit pulp using a strainer. This is how many famous cocktails are prepared: Whiskey Sour, Cosmopolitan, Margarita, Tom Collins, etc.


Shake

Obviously, drinks containing soda (soda, lemonade, champagne, etc.) cannot be mixed in a shaker - from active shaking, the liquid will first foam (dousing the bartender with a fountain as soon as he opens the vessel), and then exhale.

blend

Blend (blend, eng. "mix"). Usually fruit smoothies are prepared in this way or children food, but it is worth adding a little alcohol to the ice crumbs with fruit puree, and you get a refreshing cocktail.

In a blender, solid or viscous drink ingredients (fruits, vegetables, ice cubes, frozen berries, ice cream, etc.) are first ground, then juices, syrups and alcohol are added to them in any order. The blend is suitable for Pina Colada, Strawberry Daiquiri, Banana Margarita, Bahama Mama, etc.


Blend

Additional techniques

The following steps are not independent ways to mix cocktails - rather, they are an additional touch that you can do without.

Muddling(maddling, from the English muddle - “to crush”). The mint leaves included in the cocktail, pieces of fruits and vegetables are kneaded in a glass with a special spoon-pestle. It is used in such cocktails as Mojito, Caipirnia.


Muddling

flaming(Fleming, English "set fire"). The pinnacle of the master bartender, a technique in which an alcoholic beverage is set on fire to impress, enhance flavor, or bring out background aromas.

Most often, shots are set on fire, while the fortress of the upper layer must be at least 40%, otherwise it will not catch fire. Alcohol-containing drinks should not be added to a burning cocktail, and it must also be extinguished before drinking. Style representatives: Pumpkin pie» sambuca coffee beans, "reverse thrust", etc.


Fleming

"Shake, double strain, dry shake, hurricane."

Didn't understand what is written here? Then you are here.

The process of preparing a cocktail is not a simple mixing of certain components, but a real art that requires constant improvement.

Cocktails are prepared using certain techniques, which helps to take into account the influence of all ongoing processes on the quality of the drink. The main among them are cooling, dilution and aeration, that is, saturation of the drink with air.

For beginners, using a shaker in Boston can quickly end in disaster because proper usage must be learned. It consists of two parts: a metal cup and glass. The glass is smaller than the cup and is inserted slightly obliquely with a hole into the hole in the cup. To mix drinks, fill a glass with ice cubes and the ingredients for your desired cocktail. Then place the glass on top of it, but not so straight, but so oblique that one side of the glass and glass forms a straight line.

The glass is then lit, so everything blends well. At this stage, in theory, nothing should leak. Now shake while one hand is holding the glass and the other is holding the glass. Then place the shaker with the metal cup down and clean the glass from impact.

According to the science of cocktail making - mixology, there are several basic methods and techniques for making cocktails:

  • Build
  • Stir
  • Shake
  • Dry Shake
  • Strain
  • Fine Strain / Double Strain (Fine Strain / Double Strain)
  • Blend
  • Muddle
  • Laying (Layering).

The choice of one or the other depends on the ingredients included in the drink and their consistency.

Mixed cocktails can be prepared in a glass with a spoon. This is usually left before serving cocktails. This requires a screen-bar, which is held over the guest's glass. The Boston Shaker is very easy to clean, required for beginners but easy to practice.

It is also called a three-section shaker because it consists of a metal cup, a lid and a sieve. To mix cocktails, pour ice cubes and ingredients into a cup, place lid and sieve on top and shake. When the shaker starts cold, the lid can be removed and the cocktail can be filled directly into the guest's glass. Shoemaker's shakers are often small and can be shaken with one hand.

As a rule, only professional bartenders use the above terms, so on the Evenings portal we have abandoned the use of these terms, replacing them with full-fledged recipes.

That's why we did it.

For example, the classic Negroni cocktail includes gin 30 ml, red vermouth 30 ml and campari 30 ml.

They are especially suitable for beginners because handling is so easy. Especially foamy cocktails are made quickly and inexpensively. Cleaning the shoemaker, however, is more difficult due to the built-in sieve. Otherwise, like the cobbler, they consist of two metal cups, one large and one small, that fit together. A special form of shaker is the speed shaker. As the name suggests, it's all about speed. The drink should arrive as soon as possible. However, no shaker glass is used, but a guest glass is used.

Therefore, the speed shaker cannot be used for cocktails that must be rejected. If you want to buy such a shaker at home, be sure to use only very strong cocktail mixing glasses. Due to clamps and vigorous shaking, thin-walled glasses can break easily.

The recipe on the site In the evenings will be like this:

  1. 1. Fill a rocks glass with ice cubes.
  2. 2. Pour in 30 ml of gin, 30 ml of red vermouth and 30 ml of campari.
  3. 3. Stir with a bar spoon.

The recipe from the bartender will be: Build.

In more complex cocktails (such as the FLY AWAY), bartenders use a combination of methods, for example: shake, double strain, dry shake, hurricane. Figured out how to make a cocktail? No, then go to the cocktail page and read the handy, painted recipe: FLY AWAY

If you have chosen a shaker, you can choose between different materials and shapes. There are stainless steel cocktail shakers in many shapes. Shakers have also been used for cocktails, which do not have to look like a shaker. In police control, the shaker had to be inconspicuous. Shakers have been created in the form of model aircraft, lighthouses and many other motifs. Today there are no more motifs, but you can choose between many styles. The offer is basically an interesting online shaker.

Often shaken with other utensils, as well as the like. If you want to fully equip your home for your home, you can buy a matching kit. Sometimes cocktail shakers are also called shakers in the trade. Even if they tend to be on the back of the drink card: just about every bar offers macaques, an alcohol-free cocktail option. Even without the shot, the drinks aren't that boring. With fruit syrups and juices, they are the perfect summer alternative. In the preparation of mockups, syrups and juices, the main focus is: they must disappoint the lack of fragrant perfumes.

Methods and methods of preparation.

Method "Build"(“Build” - from English to build) requires only a bar spoon. The cocktail is prepared in the glass in which it is served. Add all ingredients to a glass with ice and stir.

Some even imitate the taste of alcoholic beverages and drinks. For the summer mix, Muñoz Hoffmann mixes 5 centiliters of white peach syrup and 2.5 centimeters of lime juice and adds 10 fresh basil leaves. For slightly salty notes, then serve 10 centimeters of ginger lemonade. As a result, finally, he became stylish with crushed ice. Mint and strawberry in style provide the finishing touch. But even with smaller ingredients, you can create a flavorful blend. “A drink needs at least three ingredients to be complex,” say nutritionist Eva Derndorfer and chef Elisabeth Fischer.

Steer method(“Stir” - from English stir) requires a mixing glass, a bar spoon and a strainer. Usually ice is not used when serving. All ingredients, along with ice, are added to a mixing glass and mixed. After filtering through a strainer.

They wrote a book about soft drinks. An amazing effect is provided by recipes in which acquaintances are combined again. For example, from blueberries, pears and coriander extract. To drink blueberries and coriander, one and a half teaspoon of coriander is poured into 375 g of boiling water, left for five minutes and then peeled. Mix chilled extract with about 500 grams of pear juice and 125 grams of blueberry juice.

Pineapple Colada: Mix coconut milk, cream and anine juice, then shake the drink vigorously. Also suitable for hearty dishes and cheese dishes is a pear drink. This layout also requires an extract. To do this, add a teaspoon of anise with 300 g of boiling water. Allow the trial for five minutes and strain. After cooling the anise extract, mix with 300 g of pear juice and 400 grams of mineral water. “Then add 5 teaspoons of basil, finely chop and stir,” Fischer says.

Shake Method(“Shake” - from English shake) - this is the name of the method of preparing a cocktail, in which you can not do without a shaker, jiger and strainer. All ingredients are added to a shaker with ice and shaken. The drink is simultaneously cooled, diluted and saturated with air.

After about three minutes, the mixture can be passed through a sieve and served in a small glass. It is milder than vinegar but provides fresh fruity acidity and is available from specialist dealers or wineries. About 230 g of grape juice is mixed with 270 g of chilled carbonated mineral water and 500 g of honey honey juice. “Instead of melon juice from a bottle, you can juice or mix ripe copper melon,” says Derndorfer. In the last step, he mixes the abrasion with half an orange.

To this add 2 centiliters of lemon syrup and sugar syrup. Crushed ice and sparkling water fill everything. Wind salt is also included in the drink before the mixture is shaken vigorously. It is best to serve a tropical layout with 200 milliliters of ice in a tall glass. If you like it, you can come back and find special products. A spectacular layout of herbs and spices like cumin, says Derndorfer. If you like hot dishes, you can improve your mixes with ginger or chili.

Dry Shake Method(“Dry Shake” - from the English dry shake) is as follows: all the ingredients are added to the shaker with ice, the drink is shaken. After that, the drink is poured through the strainer (or through the strainer and sieve) into an empty glass, the ice is thrown away, the drink is poured back into the shaker and shaken well again, but this time without ice.

Make your own decorative ice cubes

The real catcher in the glass are ice cubes with frozen fruit or leaves. This makes the ice crystal transparent when frozen. After the water has cooled, the ice cubes are about half full and freeze. After a few hours in the freezer, you can add pieces of fruit or, for example, mint leaves.

How to make perfect milk foam?

Then fill ice cubes with water and freeze them. Hot or cold, pure or with extra flavor: hardly any drink is as versatile as coffee. Let our tips and tricks inspire you. Snow-white and creamy soft: coffee machines, like their milk foam in cafe latte, cappuccino or latte macchiato. But how does it work best? Low-fat milk makes the foam stronger, creamier. When frothing, make sure that plenty of air gets into the milk.

Hence the name dry shake - shake without ice. As a rule, a dry shake is made in a Boston egg shaker (this is more convenient than in a European one - you don’t need to take an empty glass, because half of the shaker is an empty glass). Dry shake allows you to better saturate the drink with air and get a "foam".

Milk foam without milk frother?

You don't need a special frother for airy, free milk foam. You can also use blender or blender. Turn the mixer to the highest level. For a blender, place the appliance close to the surface of the milk to maintain plenty of air. You can recognize the correct distance by sipping the sound. If the volume of milk increases noticeably, lower the blender bar further to reinforce the foam.

The French press is also suitable for making milk foam. To do this, add milk to the jug. Press and then pull the coffee cup with the metal filter alternately down and down until the desired foam appears. Ready for sports cooking? Then take the snow cap. Whip the milk like a cream with strong and fast movements. It takes a bit of firmness until a creamy milk froth forms after about three minutes.

Delicious food, pleasant company, a lot of music and, of course, a variety of colorful cocktails are liked by absolutely everyone. Thanks to a combination of all these factors, any party is guaranteed to be a success.

Milk foam with steam nozzle

If you have a coffee machine with a steam nozzle, add some milk to a metal jug. To do this, pull the steam unit out from under the bottom of the milk surface. Delightful eruption sounds show you the right way. As soon as the volume of milk has increased by about half, you will plunge the steamer deeper. Use the pitcher to make moves.

1 Long Island Cocktail

The most famous cocktail called "Long Island" was invented during the Prohibition era. Outwardly, he looked very much like cold tea, so the drink is often referred to as Long Island Ice Tea. It first appeared on Long Island in New York, from where it got its name.

It is usually prepared in the following way:

To clarify, add 2-4 teaspoons of syrup to your coffee. With homemade cocoa masks, you can summon quick decorations with zippers. Choose materials that are water-resistant, such as plastic or metal, that can be easily wiped off. For the plastic version, ask for a durable and thin material that can be machined easily. Draw the desired pattern on the template blank, which should be slightly wider than the coffee button. Then cut off the recorded pattern with scissors or a cutting knife. Tin lids are suitable for a metal template.

Stylish and truly professional stencils are made of thin aluminum sheet. As a starting point for the saw, you drill a small hole in the sheet with a thin drill. From there you should see a drawing. This is best done with a grinding saw. Metal stencils last forever but are not as easy to make as the plastic version. If you have two left hands or are short on time, you can order ready-made cappuccino templates online.
