Cocktail Spoons
As the name suggests, it's a spoon used for stirring cocktails. It's a bar spoon, a bartender's tool for mixing ingredients in a mixing glass or cocktail glass: its length allows it to reach the bottom of the glass, and its tip allows it to crush fruit or mint leaves in mojitos.
What are cocktail spoons good for?
You can't serve your customers delicious cocktails without the right accessories. There are many, such as the cocktail spoon. Several models are available on the Buffet-Plus website. There are several uses for bar cocktail spoons. They can be used as cocktail measuring spoons or cocktail tasting spoons. Professional cocktail spoons are most commonly used for mixing drinks.
The most common use for a cocktail spoon is to mix alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, so they will be used by consumers and therefore need to be attractive and practical to use. The large size of these products (40 cm) makes mixing a cocktail with a spoon easier and less messy.
The cocktail spoon, an essential tool for the bartender
The cocktail spoon is an essential tool for the bartender and its use offers several key benefits in terms of cocktail preparation, precision and presentation. It plays a crucial role in creating balanced, well-presented cocktails. Not only does it allow ingredients to be mixed efficiently, but it also allows cocktails to be layered, garnishes to be handled with precision and the bottom of deep glasses to be reached. In short, a cocktail spoon makes a significant contribution to the quality and aesthetics of the drinks served, enhancing the overall customer experience.
Efficient mixing of ingredients: The cocktail spoon mixes ingredients evenly, ensuring that every sip of cocktail has the same taste and consistency. Its slim, elongated shape allows you to mix liquids in a glass or shaker without splashing, keeping the bar clean.
Balancing flavours: Gentle mixing with a cocktail spoon gives you precise control over the balance of flavours in cocktails that require careful handling of ingredients.
Creating layered cocktails: the cocktail spoon is essential for 'layered cocktails'; the back of the spoon allows liquids to be poured gently, using the 'floating' technique to create distinct layers without mixing.
Garnishes: The cocktail spoon can be used to precisely place garnishes such as citrus peel, cherries or mint leaves, adding a neat finishing touch to the cocktail presentation.
Deep glasses and large shakers: the length of a cocktail spoon allows it to reach the bottom of long glasses or large shakers, making it easier to mix ingredients thoroughly.
Cocktail spoon, special techniques: some cocktail recipes require special techniques such as rolling and stirring, which the cocktail spoon can perform effectively. The long, thin handle of the cocktail spoon is ideal for twisting a citrus peel, releasing its essential oils onto the surface of the cocktail.
Aesthetics and professionalism: The use of a cocktail spoon demonstrates a high level of professionalism and skill, enhancing the image of the bartender and the bar. The cocktail spoon looks elegant and professional during the drink preparation process.
Versatility: In addition to mixing and pouring, the cocktail spoon can be used to measure small amounts of ingredients or manipulate elements in the cocktail.
