Perhaps the fastest changes occur behind the bar. It is not in the trend to drink Margarita from year to year, it is fashionable to experiment and not be afraid of new tastes.
Craft beer is a continuation of the fashion of the last few years. The production of craft beverages has doubled since 2017.
The latest trend is mixing seemingly incompatible ingredients in one glass. For example, a duet of wine and beer.
Georgian wines are yesterday. Today, Sicilian drinks with a special aroma and freshness are in vogue.
Increasingly, in bars, you can find additives in cocktails such as fried grapes, dried salted bananas, smoked tomatoes, mashed red peppers, peas, corn and even brine.
Another novelty is cocktails based on fermented drinks – kombucha, coconut kefir or ginger beer. And also mixes with vegetable fats and peanut butter – delicious and high in calories.
Instead of the usual wine and cheese, unexpected products are served with alcoholic drinks. For example, you will be offered oysters with gins, and french fries with sherry. In general, the number of original snacks and original recipes is increasing dramatically.
By the way, it is fashionable to serve snacks not separately from cocktails, but to string them on skewers and insert them directly into a glass of drinks.
