What happens to a martini if you use a bottle of vodka or gin from your freezer? Is it going to taste as correct given the core spirit is chilled down to zero before you stir your ice into it?
This is a lesson on dilution rate, how water impacts a cocktail and how your senses of taste and olfactory (nose) are impacted by the utilization of water. You’ll find a specific dilution rate is the key factor to spirit-forward cocktails so how do you know if you’re diluting it correctly?
For science, we call forth the powers of Dave Arnold who’s cocktail science suggests a 45-second stir (or 15 second shake) brings your drink to the optimal temperature which, in turn, gives you a nice dilution rate.
