Chilled glasses are the best way to serve cocktails. Glasses can be put in the refrigerator before serving, or fill the glass with ice before preparing the drink. Either method will work and your glass will be perfect.
Frosted glasses are also called for in some cocktails. These are some easy methods to use:
The most common frosted glass is simply put in the freezer or to buried the glass in some ice cubes to create a white frosted look on the glass.
Some drinks call for a sugar frosting, take the frosted glass and wipe the rim with a slice of lemon or lime. After this, dip in powdered sugar to complete the effect. Margaritas are prepared the same, but the rim is coated with lime and dipped in coarse salt.
