The flavors of drinks are incredibly diverse, ranging from sweet and sour to bitter and spicy. Understanding the interplay of spirits, liqueurs, mixers, and garnishes is key to creating balanced and enjoyable beverages.
Common flavor profiles include: Sweet (sugars, syrups, fruit juices), Sour (citrus juices, vinegar), Bitter (bitters, amaro), Spicy (ginger, chili), Herbal (mint, basil, rosemary), and Savory (olives, brine). Classic combinations like sweet and sour (e.g., Margarita) or bitter and sweet (e.g., Old Fashioned) are foundational, while signature cocktails often explore more unconventional pairings.
