If you're making a drink in a shaker tin or a mixing glass, then you add the ice last.
Do you put ice in before or after cocktail?
- When making mixed drinks, first add ice, then liquor and then your mixers. The average pour of alcohol is 1.5 ounces (or a “jigger”), but depending on your mixers and audience, it can go anywhere from 1 to 2.
- In the 16th century, it was the Italians who brought back the use of ice. France, borrowing the tradition from Italy, was the first country to bring ice back, but as an extravagance.
- By putting the ice in first it gives the alcohol a chance to chill down and any mix to mix with it. If after the alcohol it traps it and the mixers won't mix with the alcohol. You use ice during the cocktail making process to chill a drink.
- The best size of ice cubes for drink chilling is 1-inch cubes, which is a standard ice cube. This allows for maximum chilling with the right amount of melt for drink dilution.
- Cocktail ice is an essential ingredient that many overlook. Not only does it keep your drink at a chilled temperature, but it also impacts the overall quality of the cocktail. Adding the right type of ice to your drink will help to ensure that all the ingredients bind together to create one, delicious mixture.
