How long should I stir a cocktail ?
First let’s explain when and why we usually stir a cocktail.
When the mix is made purely out of liquors / spirits ( does not contain eggs, cream or juices ) we will almost always stir the ingredients because it blends them together just right without overdoing it such as the case when we shake instead.
As for the duration of a stir, it will depend on your personal preference when it comes to the alcoholic strength of the cocktail.
Like your cocktails super strong ? Stir lightly
Do you like them light and very diluted ? Stir longer
In this case the ingredients would be quite strong for our taste so we chose to stir extra long and dilute the cocktail enough for it to be bearable for us.
