CHAPTER 3

THE PRINCIPLE ELABORATED PRODUCTS (DRINKS) TO BE FOUND IN A COCKTAIL BAR

Moving ahead in our quest to connect knowledge, we now turn our attention to the elaborated products – the drinks – that the bartender offers to customers.

Although this subject will be addressed in greater detail in Volume III of Cocktail Sapiens, which studies the main components that the bartender uses to make the preparations, we also find it useful to set out here which drink families potentially form part of the cocktail selection, either as preparations in themselves or as ingredients in one of the cocktails on offer.

To do this, we take an overview of juices, soft drinks, fermented drinks, liqueurs, cream liqueurs and distilled spirits. We also make a special mention of water and coffee, which are essential for certain families of cocktails, but are elaborated products that do not reach the cocktail bar in drink format.
