Build – Easy and Strong

The Build is the simplest method to whip up a drink—just mix it all up right in the glass you'll serve it in. This way of doing things is ideal for drinks heavy on the booze such as the Old Fashioned.

The Way to Make a Cocktail Using Build

1. Picking a glass - Go with a rocks or lowball glass, they're spot on.
2. Throw in the dry stuff first - Start off with a sugar cube drenched in bitters. This ain't bad.
3. Pour the booze bit by bit - Keep stirring in 15ml each time just so the sugar melts right in.
4. Pop in some ice along the way - You want big cubes, they stop your drink from getting too watered down.
5. Finish with new ice and a bit of flair - Chuck in some citrus peel or maybe a cherry for that smell-good vibe.
6. Fizzy bits come in at the end - Toss in the sparkly things once the ice is already chilling in there.

Whipping up a top-notch cocktail is all about keeping it simple and measuring stuff right.
