Chen Er bought a few bottles of tequila on the spot, planning to send some back to China to drink, and some to wait for the cocktail.

Then fans were surprised to find that Chen Er did not pay as much attention to the year as he did when buying liquor and wine.

"Because tequila doesn't have a specific vintage requirement in terms of vintage, although it can also be graded according to the way it is aged, most people who drink tequila are not so particular about the vintage." ”

For example, there is a wine called white tequila in tequila, which is tequila that has no age at all. It is also quite popular in the market.

Chen Er felt that the freshly brewed tequila had a faint agave aroma, and the smell was even more fragrant and attractive.

Therefore, Chen Er prefers the freshly brewed tequila.

"Okay, let's make a few cocktails with the freshly brewed tequila here."

Chen Er took all the things that had been prepared in advance in the car.

A cocktail is said to be a drink, but it's actually more like a compound drink. It is generally made up of two or more kinds of wine or beverages, fruit juices, and soft drinks, which have certain nutritional value and appreciation value.

To make a cocktail, the base wine is indispensable.

There are many bases for cocktails, including rum, vodka, whiskey, brandy, and so on, in addition to the tequila that Chen Er uses now.

Of course, in addition to alcohol, there is also a wide variety of side ingredients that can be added to a cocktail. For example, juice, egg whites, milk, coffee, etc., can be added to cocktails.

Chen Er raised the tequila in his hand, "However, since there are so many tequila today, the cocktails made by the anchor and others will all choose tequila as the base wine." ”

Among the cocktails that use tequila as a base drink, the most famous is probably the margarita.

The margarita is known as the cocktail and is one of the most recognizable traditional cocktails in the world besides the martini. It was also the winner of the 1949 National Cocktail Competition.

"There are many ways to make Margaret, there are about 20 kinds of them, and today, we will make a standard model."

Chen Er first took out a tall cocktail glass and placed it on the table.

Take out another packet of salt and sprinkle it directly on the tabletop. Then cut a lime, moisten the rim of the glass with a slice of lemon, and turn the glass upside down on the table with salt for a week, staining it with some salt to make snowflake.

"This step can be a little more arbitrary, there are no special requirements, just a circle of salt sticking to the rim of the glass."

The salt-stained wine glass was set aside, leaving it alone for the time being.

Chen Er then introduced the other tools and ingredients that will be used.

The most indispensable tool for making cocktails is, of course, a shaker.

Most mixers are made of silver or stainless steel, but a few are made of glass, and they are a tool that can mix and cool a variety of different mixaging materials.

For Chen, he didn't have any special requirements for the shaker, just a little bit and no other flavors.

So Chen Er chose a silver shaker.

Silver shakers do not have the special smell of metal, and they are more convenient to use.

Of course, the tools used to make a cocktail require more than just a shaker. Such as cups, bar spoons, ice buckets and ice tongs, wine measuring glasses, etc.

As for the ingredients for making margaritas, in addition to tequila, you also need a lime, Cointreau orange wine, and lime juice.

The process of concoction is also not cumbersome.

Add 40 ml of tequila, 20 ml of Cointreau orange wine, 20 ml of lime juice to a shaker, add a few ice cubes, shake well and fill a cocktail glass.

Be careful not to wash the salt out of the glass when pouring the prepared wine into the glass.

Finally, slice another piece of lime and insert it into the rim of the cocktail glass. A glass of margarita is done.

Shen Yinian looked at it for a long time, and then asked, "This cocktail is not the same as what you see in the TV series......"

The color of the margarita in front of me is not so colorful, it is still transparent, and it looks similar to the tequila before it was not concocted.

It has only changed from transparent and colorless to transparent pale yellow, and the smell is more prominent than agave.

Although Shen Yinian had not tasted the taste of this glass of Margaret, she could smell the aroma coming from the wine glass, with a faint fruity aroma, which was very fresh and moving.

"Here, taste."

Chen Er handed the cup of Margaret to Shen Yinian.

Shen Yinian happily picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

The aroma of agave in the wine is still very strong, but it has a little more fresh fruity acidity than ordinary tequila, which should be the reason for the lime.

The sourness of the lime combined with the slight saltiness of the wine glass tastes a bit like tears slipping into your mouth, sour and slightly salty.

One can't help but be reminded of the story about Margaret.

Created in 1926, the Margaret is a cocktail created by Los Angeles-based bartender Jane Duresa in honor of his Mexican girlfriend.

The bartender's girlfriend, Margaret, was killed by a stray bullet during a hunting trip. In honor of his beloved, the bartender created this drink named after him, and for this he won the 1949 National Bartender Competition.

The lime juice represents his sore heart, while the salt represents his tears.

Just like this glass of Margaret, it has an intoxicating taste of alcohol, a faint sourness and a slight saltiness in the mouth.

It seems that tears can be shed at any moment.

"The tone of this cocktail is a little more sad, and the margaret is clear in color and tastes slightly sour, like an untouchable memory. ”

"Then, next, the anchor will make a cocktail full of enthusiasm and energy."

"The name of this cocktail is Tekira Sunrise."

If the Margaret just now is a sour memory that cannot be touched, then this cup of Tequira Sunrise is a sunshine full of vigor and vitality.

Sunrise is the beginning of the day and what the sun looks like when it has just risen.

The sun that has just risen, the sunlight is not too dazzling, but it has a warm and warm feeling, the light is clean and transparent, slowly rising from the sky, from the mountains, from the flat ground, the light crosses the horizon, illuminating the whole world little by little.

Bring hope and enthusiasm to people.

The sunrise in Tequira is a completely different feeling from the Margaret just now.

The Tequira Sunrise not only depicts the beauty of the sunrise, but also gives exuberant energy to the drinkers.
