TIPS FOR CREATING COCKTAILS ON TAP
Creating great cocktails on tap follows a very similar pattern to
the batched cocktail but there are some things to consider:
DO
•
Make single versions of drinks before batching a large volume of
the drink you want to keg.
•
Remember it isn’t always necessary to carbonate. Make the
drink topped with fizzy soda or tonic and taste it alongside the
carbonated cocktail to decide if it’s necessary.
•
Make sure any liquids you keg or carbonate are as clear as
possible before you charge them. Hazy liquids are harder to
achieve the desired carbonation.
DON’T
•
Use thick or oily substances in kegged cocktails as they will
not fizz.
•
Keg cocktails unless necessary. It’s only worthwhile if the
cocktail will be ordered a lot.
