Sampler size cocktails are one of the hottest “new” trends in bars and restaurants nationwide. But really, smaller size cocktails make perfect sense and have been around for ages. Large cocktails served in 10 to 12 ounce martini glasses are much too big. They warm before anyone has a chance to drink them at a reasonable pace. And let’s be perfectly honest, dessert style cocktails such as the one below are much better served in smaller portions. The liquids stay chilled and the sweet factor stays manageable.
Baileys Vanilla Silk Martini is silky smooth, but leans heavily toward sweet. A little goes a long way in this smaller size cocktail. Sip and be merry.
