Tips for Making Batch Cocktails
Batch cocktails are a great way to entertain a crowd or to enjoy a pre-made drink from the fridge throughout the week. But, there are a few steps you can take to make sure they’re the best they can be. You’ll want to choose a sturdy, non-reactive container that can withstand mixing and won’t alter the flavor of the cocktail. You also want to be cautious about when you prepare your cocktail. If serving your cocktail chilled, batch it ahead and refrigerate. For a slightly warmer cocktail, pour your servings into cocktail glasses about 15 minutes before sipping to let some of the chill disipate.
