A CLEARER PATH TO A BETTER DRINK
Cocktail Check
Tell us what tastes off. Build a controlled tasting test from the symptom, recipe and service conditions.
“My drink is too sweet.”
45 ml bourbon / 25 ml lemon / 20 ml syrup
Check your syrup
A rich 2:1 syrup adds more sugar than a 1:1 syrup at the same measure.
Try a small adjustment
Test 17.5 ml of the same syrup. Keep the bourbon, lemon, ice and shake unchanged.
Taste side by side
Compare the original and the new trial at the same temperature. Record what improved.
Illustrative test, not a replacement for tasting.
