Cocktail galore | From mini-cocktails to taste each other\u2019s drinks to a new chilled glass<\/strong><\/h3>\n

That my generation spends a lot of time online is no surprise to anyone. But the number of fun, small gestures you come across can still be surprising. Like at Schmuck, a cocktail bar in New York City<\/a>, which recently went viral for offering a new chilled glass to a guest who was slowly enjoying her dirty martini. See the video by Craft and Cocktails<\/a> on Instagram.<\/p>\n

The bar at Belmond Villa Sant\u2019Andrea<\/a> also recently went viral with a hospitable cocktail gesture. A guest, Leah Stapleton<\/a>, shared on Instagram how she and her tablemate were served a mini version of each cocktail alongside the full-size ones, so they could taste each other\u2019s drinks, check out her reel here<\/a>. A simple yet effective way to surprise your guests!<\/p>\n

A flight of mini-cocktails<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Of course, you can also serve a flight of mini-cocktails, giving your guests the chance to try several at once. This article on VML<\/a> highlights some inspiring examples. On Horecatrends<\/a>, we wrote about a whisky flight at The Malt Vault<\/a> in Utrecht before: ideal for both beginners and seasoned whisky lovers.<\/p>\n

The ultimate combination | Sauvignon & Sea Salt<\/strong><\/h3>\n

In the past, we\u2019ve written about serving a mini ice cream with coffee. The Instagram account Rich & Thirsty<\/a> recently shared a grown-up version: the Sauvignon & Sea Salt, as they call it themselves. \u00a0A glass of wine with a mini cone of fries, clipped to the rim with a small peg. I\u2019am already a fan! How fun is it to serve your guests a little snack with their glass of wine?<\/p>\n
