The Simple Tool That Makes Cocktails More Precise
By MEGGAN ROBINSON
It seems like many cocktails nowadays are more complex and difficult to approach, but at Tasting Table, we believe in providing cocktails anyone can master! It turns out, this begins with not being overwhelmed with the many measuring instrument options and putting your faith in just one instead.
Any bartender will tell you that measuring is by far one of the most important aspects of preparing a drink, and what looks like a simple free pour on their end is actually a calculated move that came from much experience. For those at home, however, the company Oxo released the perfect measuring cup to help you out.
The Oxo micro angled measuring cup is only two ounces in size, but don't let that fool you—it has markings for ounces, tablespoons, cups, and milliliters, is dishwasher safe, and even has a precise pour spout. So, regardless of how complicated the cocktail you're making is, this measuring tool has your back.
