Plating & presentation
How to plate this dish like a pro
Pre-chill the glass. Build over fresh, well-frozen ice. Garnish on the rim, never floating in unless designed to. Stir or shake to brand-correct dilution.
Common mistakes
What to avoid
- 1Shaking without enough ice. Underdiluted = harsh; overdiluted = watery. 4-5 large cubes is the sweet spot.
- 2Free-pouring instead of measuring. A jigger costs $5. Use it.
- 3Pre-batching with citrus. Fresh-squeezed citrus dies within an hour. Squeeze to order.
