HERE'S HOW
sible and never place the peel IN the drink, merely twist
it and hang over the edge of the glass.
Ice is an important ingredient in the mixed drink.
Three forms of ice can be used. They are:
Shaved—shaved from cakes of ice with a shaver.
Cracked—large pieces placed in a towel or cloth and
broken to bits.
Cubes—such as taken from trays of an electric re
frigerator.
Use of the ice is important also.
In shaking, two or three cubes should be placed in the
shaker.
In a stirred drink, use a glass half filled with shaved
ice.
Another integral part of drinks is the egg.
Silver Fizz means use the white of the egg only.
Golden Fizz—means use only the yolk.
Royal Fizz—means use the whole egg.
Cream Fizz—^means add cream.
In mixing drinks, use bitters, cordials, syrups and the
like cautiously, since a slight bit too much or too little
may spoil the drink.
In grating nutmeg or adding other spice to drinks, add
to each drink individually to obtain the proper proportion.
