VINTURI RED WINE AERATOR

People like to drink a glass of red wine over dinner and talk and enjoy its flavour and smoothness. Wine has been used for centuries to bring people together and celebrate and befriend. But those who know more things about wine say it’s an art to both make a very good wine and also know how to drink it properly. People working in this branch and wine tasters say that wine needs “to breath”, that is come into contact with air, but only for a short period of time because after that it loses its flavour. That is why ancient people used decanters when serving guests at table and not bottles. Any way, we have progressed in all fields, so why not use innovations in wine tasting, too?

mocktail drinks




If you want to serve a fun, holiday drink sans alcohol, here are a few recipes worth trying. They look delicious, don't they? I'm loving the star anise, lavender, pineapple spear and mint garnishes. Yum! Now, if only I could find a great "mocktail" recipe incorporating passion fruit puree, I'd have a nice little collection of inventive drink recipes. If you want to discover mocktail recipes beyond this edited list, you can look here and here.

COCKTAIL DRINKS

any alcoholic substance mixed in with another substance (usually non-alcoholic but it depends on the drinker!) you may have one alcoholic spirit in there or you may have five, but generally most cocktails have one or two spirits and one or two non-alcoholic substances i.e. coke, lemonade etc. to make the drink more drinkable (straight alcohol is not so pleasant so cocktails were invented to make it nicer i guess?)

What is beverage???

A BEVERAGE is a drink specifically prepared for human consumption. Beverages almost always largely consist of water. Water is essential for living, significantly more so than food. Death will usually occur after 1 week without any liquids but humans have been known to survive some months without food.
