The greatest mocktails in the world

The secret garnish tip every homebartender should know!

November 27, 2018 by Johan Miranda Leave a Comment

You have done your homework. The juice is freshly squeezed, the syrup is chilled and balanced, the glasses are chilled in the fridge and your guests are arriving. It’s time make your guests say WOOOOW in choir!

The secret behind a well composed mocktail is balance, flavour and a nice finish. Once you’ve gotten the recipe right, the only thing left to really impress is the presentation. This is where the secret weapon of garnish comes in hand. Dried fruit!

It’s as easy as ABC and a long lasting way to preserve fruit for later garnish. You will be able to make big batches of garnish that will last for weeks on end. The only limitation is your imagination and we’ll let you in on a little secret… It’s insanely easy to dry fruit!

How to dry fruit:

Slice the fruit either with a mandoline or a serated knife. Aim for really thin slices

You can cut out different shapes like half moons, wheels, do zest twists or dry berries on a spear

Lay the fruit or berries flat on a tray and don’t let the fruit come in contact with each other

Set your oven to 75ºC (167 F)

Leave a tiny opening by placing a wooden spoon in between the ovendoor and the oven

Let the fruit dry for 5-24 hours depending on how thick the slices are

Take it to the next level:

If you want to sweeten up the fruit to better become a part of your mocktail, sprinkle some sugar on it before oven time and let the sugar absorb some of the juices of the fruit. You could also spice the fruit with some salt, liquorice powder or some powdered vanilla.

Happy drying!

Puerto de la Cruz⚓️⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ Mango a Puerto de la Cruz⚓️⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Mango and pink pepper together with the spices from Borrago will make a lovely evening mocktail today! And who doesn’t love a nice fluffy foam on top?⁣ ⁣ So what do you do if you don’t have any citrus in the fridge? Well you could always go for vinegar. Together with some sugar it could make a great sour mocktail just like the Puerto de La Cruz. ⁣⁣⁣

One has to love the classics! And the Old cuban is one of the modern classics, created in 2004 in NY. It has really hit the bar-scene with a bang! It combines the nice cane-flavors with sone mint and lime, making it a perfect cocktail to enjoy in the sun!⁣⁣⁣
