Christmas is here and the parties seem to have begun. Apart from the gala supper, what gathers attention is the cocktails. In Christmas, try out some unusual cocktail condiments for you and your guests. Take a look at them:
Rim your glass with a smoky barbecue sauce for a savoury kick that complements savoury cocktails like Bloody Mary or bacon-infused drinks.
Freeze jalapeño slices in ice cubes to gradually infuse heat into your cocktail as they melt, adding a fiery kick to drinks like margaritas or mojitos.
Drizzle a balsamic reduction over the top of a fruity cocktail, such as a berry-infused spritzer, for a sweet and tangy contrast.
Create a wasabi-infused salt rim for a Japanese-inspired twist on classic cocktails like a margarita, enhancing the drink with a subtle heat.
Develop a syrup using soy sauce and ginger, adding depth and an umami flavour to cocktails like a whiskey sour or a Moscow mule.
Combine smoked salt with caramel for a unique rimming option, enhancing the richness of dessert cocktails like a salted caramel martini.
Introduce a kimchi swirl to a spicy cocktail, like a Bloody Mary or a spicy Margarita, for a tangy, fermented zing that plays well with bold flavours.
