4 beverage types and recipes
Strawberry mint tea
This herbal tea is a refreshing drink during the hot summer months. The recipe calls for 2 cups hulled and roughly diced fresh strawberries, 1 cup granulated sugar, peppermint sprigs, and whole fresh strawberries with tops. To prepare the recipe, stir with a wooden spoon and combine the strawberries and sugar in a small pot. Cook over low heat for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sugar dissolves. Combine the strawberry mixture with the peppermint sprigs. At room temperature, allow it to cool for roughly 15 minutes. Remove the peppermint leaves from the strawberry mixture and discard them. After passing the liquid through a fine mesh strainer, pour it into a half-gallon pitcher. Fill six high glasses with ice and garnish with one strawberry per glass.
Frozen blueberry lemonade
Frozen blueberry lemonade blends sweet-tart ingredients like lemon sorbet, frozen lemonade concentrate, and frozen blueberries. It only takes five minutes of active prep time. First, remove the sorbet from the freezer and combine it with the lemonade and blueberries in a blender. Process for 20 seconds or until smooth but still frozen. Pour the blueberry mixture into serving glasses. Add lemon wheels and basil leaves as garnish. Serve immediately. This is an excellent option for those who prefer frozen to iced lemonade.
Pineapple sweet tea punch
This cool beverage is made with iced black tea and simple pineapple syrup. Fresh lime juice gives this iced tea lovely tropical flavors and adds a welcome dose of acidity to balance the sweetness. This recipe calls for heating pineapple juice and sugar crystals over medium-high heat. Boil the mixture for 12 to 16 minutes, or until it is reduced to 1/2 cup and thickens into a syrup. Remove from heat and let cool completely for about 20 minutes. Combine chilled unsweetened iced tea, fresh lime juice, and cold pineapple syrup in a small pitcher. Pour the drink equally into four glasses with ice in each. Place a pineapple slice on top of each glass.
Vanilla-rosemary lemonade
When made with freshly squeezed lemon juice, this beverage is wonderful. This drink’s vanilla bean and rosemary sprigs offer a sophisticated touch to any occasion. Mix the sugar, vanilla bean, water, and three fresh rosemary sprigs in a medium saucepan. Bring to a mild boil over medium heat, stirring regularly. Allow it to soak for 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the drink cool for 30 minutes. Strain solids into a large pitcher after passing through a fine wire-mesh strainer. Add fresh lemon juice and mix well. Cover and chill for 3 to 48 hours. Stir slightly before serving over ice.
Beverage service equipment
Food and beverage service equipment include all equipment available in the service area including linen, glasses, cutlery, and crockery. Moreover, beverage service equipment also include furniture like table, chair, and sideboard. Food and beverage service companies use different kinds of glassware for various drinks, requiring an investment in delicate and fragile equipment. The packaging’s style, quality, and radiance are determined by the type of drink to be stored and preserved.
Beverage packing supplies
Several factors influence the selection of the ideal packaging. Every kind of packing has several advantages. Below are some examples of the many packing supplies.
Cans
The main benefits aluminum can provide are strength, lightness, and adaptability. In contrast to other materials like plastic, it is also a material that is completely recyclable and reasonably affordable. Cans are one of the most flexible options for beverage packaging. The container can be fully customized with eye-catching images that may be printed directly on the aluminum.
Glass packaging
Glass packaging can improve the flavor quality of the product. This is primarily due to the stiffness and non-permeability of the glass, which improves product durability, particularly in the case of sparkling beverages. Glass is another completely recyclable and environmentally sustainable packaging option.
