, but damn is it expensive to stock a bar cart. Enter a new concept: the one-bottle cocktail. Instead of dropping a bunch of cash on a bar cart's worth of liqueurs, bitters, and spirits, you buy one bottle of booze and use common grocery store ingredients to turn that bottle into creative cocktails.. It has over 80 cocktail recipes, none of which contain more than one spirit. And no, it's not 100 pages of vodka lemonades.
These are complex, deeply flavored cocktails that balance sweetness, bitterness, and punch thanks almost entirely to supermarket ingredients and plenty of summer fruit. "Getting inspired walking around the grocery store is a great way" to start building a one-bottle cocktail bar, Hoffman says. Here's what she grabs when she's roaming the aisles.
You're not adding enough arugula to make a green juice—a small amount lends just a hint of peppery, savory flavor."People forget that a savory element in a drink can not only keep it from getting too sweet but also add depth of flavor," Hoffman says. A great place to look is the produce aisle: arugula, fennel, celery, and tomato can be muddled and infused to mimic the bitter, sometimes vegetal flavor of some liqueurs.
