The "frosting" technique for serving drinks and cocktails
FROSTING
The technique for quickly cooling glasses used to serve drinks and cocktails
A new technique is gaining popularity among bartenders around the world: "frosting".
This method allows the glasses used to serve drinks and cocktails to be cooled quickly, which are normally prepared without ice, guaranteeing a fresh and pleasant drink for customers.
Frosting consists of filling the glass with ice up to the rim and then pouring cold water over it. Or, cool the glass in a freezer before use for about thirty minutes.
This combination creates an instant cooling effect, which allows bartenders to prepare drinks quickly without having to wait for glasses to cool in the fridge or freezer.
This technique is especially useful during peak hours when bartenders need to be quick to serve customers. Furthermore, frosting also avoids the risk of diluting the drink too much with ice, since the cold water is only poured in after the glass has been filled.
Bartenders who use this technique have noticed an improvement in the quality of their drinks, thanks to the ideal temperature of the glasses. Customers certainly appreciate a well-presented, fresh drink, so frosting can make all the difference in the overall customer experience.
Although it is a relatively simple technique, frosting requires some practice to be performed correctly. Bartenders have to learn how to dose the cold water in order to get the right cooling effect without excessively diluting the drink.
N'ICE brings a tool to the world of bartenders that greatly facilitates the "frosting" technique
To save money and speed up this operation, you can use the new 100% Made in Italy N'ICE glass coolers.
Thanks to the thermal shock of CO2, N'ICE machines lower the temperature of any glass from 19°C to -40°C in just 10 seconds, maintaining a temperature below 0°C for about 10 minutes.
This allows to obtain the "frost" effect without having to use ice and water, with considerable savings in terms of management costs over time.
Furthermore, the N'ICE glass chillers have an extra effect that ice alone cannot guarantee: they eliminate the bacteria present on the surface of the glasses, which risk polluting cocktails, wines, beers and drinks, for absolutely healthy drinks free from bad odors or microbial loads.
The 3 N'ICE models were developed with the support of professionals and specialists from the world of Mixology and Horeca, to get the point of view of those who know that world and experience it firsthand every day.
