Tips from Marcel Baumann:
The art of bartending requires specialized tools, but the lack of professional equipment shouldn’t stifle your creativity. Marcel Baumann proposes intelligent substitutes that transform ordinary objects into bar tools. GREY GOOSE Vodka, with its unparalleled inspiration, is the perfect companion to explore this new world of mixology possibilities.
- Improvised Shaker: A glass bottle with a screw cap can be a great replacement for the traditional shaker. Simply add the cocktail ingredients and close the lid tightly. Then shake vigorously to achieve a perfectly mixed result.
- Alternative Spoon: As a replacement for the bar spoon, a long spoon or metal straw can be used to gently stir the cocktail ingredients directly into the glass. Be sure to use a circular motion to achieve an even mixture.
- Optional strainer: If you don’t have a traditional bar strainer, a tea strainer or fine mesh strainer may be the solution. Simply pour the cocktail through the strainer to retain any impurities or unwanted ice.
- Multipurpose Muddler: Use a kitchen pestle to crush fresh fruit or herbs to add a touch of freshness to your cocktail. Let your creativity run wild and experiment with different combinations of ingredients.
