Serving spirits to customers?!
Answers: when do you know when to serve 25ml measures or 35 ml measures?
In the UK it is up to individual pubs whether they use 25ml or 35ml measures. It is only a legal requirement to serve 4 spirits in these measures (think it's whisky, gin, vodka and rum but not sure - it says which ones on the sign you must display) and all the rest can be served in any measure as long as you advertise it as such.
Port, sherry, vermouth and Baileys are examples of drinks that are automatically served as a double and counted as a single.
idk
25ml
Pubs either serve all their spirits in either 25 or 35 measures - not both. The only exceptions are some liqueuers like baileys' (50ml I think?)
My local serves spirits in 35's Yayyyyy!!
I free pour. Make the first one the strongest then weaken them a little each drink so they don't get too wasted and cause a scene
1 ounce is about 30 ml,so give people you dont like a short shot,give people you like a heavy shot,its in the art of the short pour/long pour
It depends on how many liquors are in the drink.
If there are 3 or more us 25 ml. or less, because you try not to exceed 2 ounces of liquor. If only 2, 35 ml
you shouldnt be serving them at all.
if the alcohol you are serving is from 0-7% of alcohol by volume, than you should serve half a pint unless asked for more.
wines, which are about 10-15 % ALC you should serve about 125ml of wine.
Fortified wines such as Port or Sherry which range somewhere about 20%ALC should be 5cl, or 50ml
for alcohols which have a higher alcohol by volume, should be served in Elgine glasses, unless on rocks, in 2.5cl measures.
clubs and pubs etc will display a sign saying what measures they sell - they will also teach you that things like martini or cinzano are large measures but vodka etc is a single measure
