How to drink cocktails

People drink cocktails from 1850 but still don't know how to do it right. Read the article and enjoy your favorite cocktails to the maximum.

Cocktail is a mix of alcohol and contemporary art, and they're like as two peas at the same time - you understand nothing in the modern art as well as you're able to recognize none of cocktail's components. However, both are worthy of special attention.

Components

1. Every cocktail contains one or more liquors, which make your legs giving way under you, and something that increases ascorbic acid concentration in blood. I.e. when you're drinking "Pina Colada", you can be sure of getting the daily dose of vitamin C, especially lying under the table.

2. Exotic fruits and vegetables, the more exotic, the better. However, have the eyes on your head if bartender gives you something with turnip and big potato - it's not a cocktail, it's a hot Indian soup.

3. Ice. Can be various by color and form. Fear the strange blue bricks as it's not ice but lavatory blocks.

Warnings

1. Some of cocktails are named very extraordinary or funny, for example "Paralyzer", "Zombie", "Chocolate Soldier", "Wolfram" etc and you can entertain yourself ordering such cocktails. But never hear your boozy friends who incite you to order "Strong blow on the jaw".

2. It's very easy to distinguish cocktail from pink syrup against worms for cats because cocktail is always decorated with garnishment, such as umbrellas, straws, fruits or all at once. Beware of bartenders - students of college of art and design, as they mix cocktails that very arty-and-crafty but horrid to the taste.
