Vodka originated in Eastern Europe where harsh winters made wine and beer shipments difficult. The earliest distilled spirit was made from fermented honey wine or beer. Vodka, which means 'little water' in Russian, became the dominant spirit as distilling techniques improved. It is a neutral spirit produced from grains, potatoes, or other plants. The choice of pot or column still affects the flavor. While generally neutral, vodkas can be classified and come in many flavored varieties. Eastern Europe remains the dominant producer, led by Russia, Poland, and other countries.
A Dutch trader in the early 16th century invented a method of removing water from wine and concentrating it to allow more wine to be shipped. This concentrated wine was called "bradwijn" or "burned wine" and later became known as brandy. Brandy is aged cognac that is separated into quality grades based on the number of years it is stored, with VS being at least 2 years, VSOP at least 4 years, and XO at least 6 years or sometimes 20 years for premium blends.

Brandy is a distilled alcoholic beverage made from fermented fruit juice, most commonly grapes. The fermented juice is distilled and then aged in oak barrels. There are three main categories of brandy based on the fruit used: grape brandy, fruit brandy from other fruits, and pomace brandy from grape skins and seeds. The aging process softens the brandy's flavor and changes its color and taste through interactions with the oak barrel and evaporation. Famous brandy-producing regions include Cognac, France.

The top rum producing countries are Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Barbados, Cuba, Guyana, Haiti, and others. Popular rum cocktails include the Cuba Libre, Planter's Punch, and Pina Colada.

Classification of Beer
What s more refreshing on a hot summer day than a nice cold beer? Or how about drinking a nice cold one with some buddies after work at a local bar, sound nice doesn t it? Beer has been around for many years and will probably be around for many more. A beer is any variety of alcoholic beverages produced by the fermentation of starchy material derived from grains or other plant sources. The production of beer and some other alcoholic beverages is often called brewing. Most every culture has there own tradition and the own take on beer, thus producing many different styles and variations.
Simply put, a beer style is a label given to a beer that describes its overall character and often times its origin. It s a name badge that has...show more content...During the secondary stage, the lager clears and mellows. The cooler conditions also inhibit the natural production of esters and other byproducts, resulting in a crisper tasting beer. Modern methods of producing lager were pioneered by Gabriel Sedlmayr the Younger, who perfected dark brown lagers at the Spaten Brewery in Bavaria, and Anton Dreher, who began brewing a lager, probably of amber red color, in Vienna in 18401841. With modern improved fermentation control, most lager breweries use only short periods of cold storage, typically 13 weeks. Most of today s lager is based on the Pilsner style, pioneered in 1842 in the town of Plzeò, in the Czech Republic. The modern Pilsner lager is light in colour and high in carbonation, with a mild hop flavour and an alcohol content of 36% by volume. The Budweiser brand of beer is a typical example of a pilsner.
The five main sub catagories of lagers are: pil

Sangeeta Thapa is an art curator in Nepal who discusses her work showcasing Nepali art both nationally and internationally. She notes that while the Nepali art scene has grown more vibrant over the years, a lack of funding and government support has limited her ability to take Nepali art abroad and grow her gallery. Political instability has also negatively impacted art sales in Nepal. She emphasizes the need to educate young people about Nepal's rich cultural heritage through schools, museums, and digital media.

Press Release - Invisible Disease June 21, 2024Purdue Global
Invisible Disease
PRESS RELEASE: 21 June 2024 / Lenawee County
When I moved my family to Clinton Village in 2021, I had no idea how much our lives would change. I was drawn in by the cute Victorian homes, and the historical presence of the rural community. Little did I know that the reality of a family like mine moving into the community would have so many immediate negative repercussions. Despite my love of our new home and the idealism of a country lifestyle, only a few people wanted us to share in their same happiness. Life over the past couple of years has changed drastically.
We first came to Michigan to take care of my then nine-year-old son Ben. Ben was diagnosed with incurable brain cancer at the age of 2. He has had three reocurrences and one aneurysm during that time. In 2020, he had his last reocurrence which resulted in seven weeks of gamma knife radiation treatment to a little over a quarter of his brain in the front left parietal lobe. The remaining scar tissue affects various aspects of the brain. He also has 36 staples, bolts, and plates in his brain and parts that are keeping his skull together.
Ben looks like a regular boy. His disease is what we call invisible because to look at him, you would never know he has brain trauma. He is the epitome of a cancer warrior! I thought Clinton Village was perfect for us. The motto is exactly what I’ve always said about Raising Ben. “It takes a Village.”
My naivete was shattered because of the constant turmoil we’ve encountered with the Clinton school system, The Village Inc. and the local police. The problems started immediately after living in the village for only a few weeks. The police became a consistent presence at our front door, prompted by our neighbors who felt we needed formal reprimands for a variety of reasons which included having a dangerous carport, owning a loud pocket dirt bike, and complaints that our front and backyard lawns were apparently too long. These are just a few of the supposed violations that were cited by our neighbors and that compelled them to report us to The Village headquarters and/or the police department.
During this time, we as a family tried to be good neighbors, were always friendly, smiled, said hello, and continued to offer baked goods whenever possible. They weren’t having it!
The Clinton elementary school held an IEP meeting, upon my request, to help Ben in school when we arrived in 2021. Ben had a few minor needs that required attention such as additional breaks during class time to give his over-stimulated brain a rest, extra help on assignments, assistance from a paraprofessional a few hours a day for redirecting and fine motor skill attention, as well as ADHD and non grand mal seizures (Epilepsy). The control factor for the implementation of Ben’s IEP is ongoing. He needs brakes when he feels overwhelmed, and that time cannot be scheduled.

The pleasure of a drink is like confiding
in a friend, like sharing silent moments
of being understood. A relaxation, a
comfort, a choice. A counter across the
bar is the distance of the encounter.
A
BAR
TO
DRINK
a
lcoholic drinks are blended with history
since civilization itself. The ancient
tombs in Egypt revealed the remains of
beer; their wall paintings show grapes
being harvested and crushed. The Mesopotamian
civilization - present day Iraq – and one of the
oldest of the world, show evidence of beer-making
mentionedonexcavatedtabletswhichdescribemore
than twenty different varieties. South American
women made a drink called Chicha by chewing
maize kernels, spitting them out into pots, mixing the
mush with water and leaving it to ferment! And the
Romans consistently spread the idea of wine, being
responsible for planting vines in most of Europe that
they conquered almost two thousand years ago.
To some extent spirits, liqueurs and fortified wines
differ from beers & wines due to the differences in
the way they are distilled.
Spirits are the distillates of wine which holds its
alcoholic content.
TheLiqueursarespiritswhicharemixedwithdistillate
flavors of plants, fruit juices or essential oils. There are
herb, spice and bitter liqueurs, with different alcoholic
content. Liqueurs are indispensable for mixing drinks,
adding color, sweetness and taste.
Fortified wines have better keeping properties than
ordinary wines, due to the addition of herbs, sugar
and other preservatives. Best drunk as aperitifs
(appetizers).
And beers are made from malt and hops. Malting is
the turning of grain particularly barley, and for some
varieties wheat, oats and rye into grains of malt. Hop,
a member of the hemp family, adds to the flavor of
beer with a bitter tang and a heady aroma.
Sharing a drink is almost always a time of relaxation
and perhaps happiness. Some stick to their favorite
drink while others adventure with flavors looking
for ‘something different’. And where else is a better
setting than a cozy bar.
Well some would even stock their own supply with a
steady choice for a bar at home.
Here’s a run through of some information on setting
up or approaching your choices for a bar.

From Wines
Armagnac - Pale Golden French brandy, made from
white grapes. Three stars on the label mean it has
matured for at least two years; V.S.O.P- minimum
five years; Napolean and X.O, at least six years; and
Hors d’Age at least ten years in a barrel.
Brandy: After distillation the colorless alcohol is
aged in oak barrels which give brandy its nutty brown
color. Spanish, Portuguese and American brandies
are considered the best.
Cognac: This famous brandy is made from specific
white grapes in defined geographical area. Three stars
or V.S on the label suggests at least two years of aging;
V.S.O.P., Vieux, V.O. and Reserve means four years;
V.V.S.O.P and Grande Reserve, at least five years; and
Extra, Napolean, X.O., Tres Vieux and Vieille Reserve,
overtenyears.
Weinbrand: This is a German brandy. Like cognac,
Weinbrand is double distilled.
From Grains
Gin: This drink is based on barley and rye with
a mixture of selected herbs and spices called
botanicals. The best gins are popular as ‘dry
gins’ and ‘London dry gin’.
Vodka: A colorless, clear, smooth spirit with
a neutral taste, distilled from a mixture of grains
or potatoes. The top brands are mostly made from

Cocktail Shaker:
The most pre-
ferred is the
Boston Shaker.
It consists of a
large stainless
steel beaker and a
smaller one made
of lead crystal
which fits inside.
Bar strainer:
Stainless steel,
this strainer has a
coiled spring type
edge that should
snugly fit the top
of the shaker or
mixing glass to
stop ice and fruit
pieces from slip-
ping into the glass.
If this is not avail-
able use a new tea
strainer.
Mixing Glass: For
all those drinks
which need to be
stirred not shaken.
Capacity - 1 quart
(enough for 3 to 4
drinks). An alter-
native - use the
inner container of
the Boston Shaker
as a mixing glass.
Bar Spoon:
Stainless steel, this
comes with a 10
inch long handle.
One end has a disc
called a muddler
used to ‘muddle’
or crush pieces of
ingredients. The
other end holds
1/6 ounce of liquid
(equivalent to a
standard kitchen
teaspoon). The
rounded back of
the spoon is also
useful for slowly
pouring layers of
liqueurs into a
glass when you
don’t want the
layers to mix.
Bar Tongs: Good
for loosening tight
corks in sparkling
wine bottles.
Electric Blender:
This is useful for
drinks like frozen
daiquiris (cocktails
usually made of
rum, lime juice
and syrup) and for
ingredients that
don’t mix easily.
A Bitter or Dash
bottle: This glass
bottle has a steel
doser cap and is
good for adding
dashes of ingre-
dients needed in
small measures.
Ice Bucket: For ice
use an ice tongs
or an ice shovel
to scope from the
bucket.
Bar Measure: A
double ended stain-
less steel cup meas-
ure, also called a
Pony-Jigger. Pony
is the 1-ounce cup
at one end and
Jigger is the 1 ½ to
2- ounce measure
at the other end. If
not available, can
use a standard set
of kitchen meas-
uring spoons - 3
teaspoons equal
to ½ ounce, and 4
teaspoons equal to
¾ ounce.
Other pieces of
equipment: A Lem-
on squeezer, a nut
grater, a chopping
board, a finely
serrated knife. A
Citrus zester also
called a Cannelle
knife for extract-
ing fine strips of
citrus peel for
garnishing. Cork-
with-pourer which
can be inserted
into any bottle to
make pouring out
measures easier.
Besides this, a can
opener, a bot-
tle opener and a
corkscrew. Finally
a bottle cooler is a
must. Toothpicks
are an absolute for
spearing olives,
cherries, pearl
onions and other
such ingredients.
Keep a pile of
bright colored
drinking straws if
you plan on serv-
ing the more exot-
ic cocktails. Avoid
using thin straws
as fruit pieces or
ice chips can block
them.
grains only. Vodkas are also available in flavors,
the widely known ones being lemon, lime, and
pepper. Although cocktails like Bloody Marys and
Screwdrivers use it as the main ingredient, Vodka is
drunk by many as a straight neat shot. When served
neat it is best when ice cold.
From Plants & Roots
Rum: A common raw material for all types of rums
is the viscous molasses, a by product of sugarcane
refining. Light rums are clear in color while the
mature ones are dark, matured for five to seven
years. Some brands add Caramel to intensify
the color rums. Light rums blend very well with
other ingredients such as fruit juices, liqueurs and
lemonades in cocktails.
Tequila: This is the most famous drink of Mexico,
distilled from blue agave cactus. Clear white tequila
is called silver tequila and is bottled immediately
after distillation. While gold tequila gets its color
from several years of storage in white wooden barrels
From Fruits
Eau-de-vie: The name in French means
“water of life”, and includes a range of
colorless fruit brandies. The commonly
used fruits for drink are cherries, plums,
apricots, and peaches.
The Bitters: Produced from root
extracts and spices, Bitters are usually
dark in color and are appetite promoters.
AngosturaBitters:Thisisthebestknown
bitter in the world and every bar needs it. It
is more often known as the essential ingredient in
Bourbon cocktails and is also responsible for the pale
pink color to a bubbling Champagne cocktail.
Aperol: An Italian bitter.
Boonekamp: An aromatic bitter with many exotic
ingredients.
Campari: An Italian bitter, and a very popular
aperitif mixer for cocktails.
Orange bitters: This is a combination of extracts of
Seville orange peel and gin.
Whiskey
Whiskey might be known
worldwide yet it has much variety,
determined by where it is pro-
duced. Scottish whiskey or scotch
is produced from malted barley or
mixture of grains and is aged for at
least three years in oak casks.
Whiskey labels that say single malt
are produced from only malted
barley. While blended whiskey
means, it contains scotch from
several distilleries. Bourbon is a
corn based American
whiskey.

delicate. Reminds of citrus and green apples. Blanc de
Noirs and Rosé Champagnes tend to be softer, richer,
and creamier. Reminds of peaches and strawberries.
Syrups & Cordials
These are the ‘sweetness’ and ‘extra something’ to
the drinks. Needed only in measures of few drops.
Cream of Coconut: Perfect to give a tropical taste
to the drink. Cream of coconut is not actually syrup
but is used as one for cocktails. It comes as a thick
liquid or a firm cream.
Grenadine: This red fruit syrup is made from
pomegranates. It gives the drink a color ranging
frombluish pink to deep red. Except for a fewbrands,
Grenadine is usually non-alcoholic.
Cordials: These are fruit juices sweetened with
syrup, with a variety of flavors. A popular cordial -
Rose’s Lime Juice is used as a replacement of lemon
juice and sugar.
Sugar syrup: Also called stock syrup and easy to
make yourself. There are over thirty different types
of syrups mostly fruit flavored.
Carbonated Beverages &
Mineral water
Used for diluting and topping and give the festive fizz
& foam.
Ginger Ale: It adds effervescence with a hint of
ginger flavor.
Cola drinks: Besides flavor they add a little bit of
caffeine.
Mineral water: Ranges from sparkling to still to
bitter and salty. A matter of taste.
Tonic water: It gives a tangy fresh flavor with a trace
of quinine.
Soda water: With a high content
of sodium carbonate it contains
natural or artificially injected
carbonic acid.
Egg, Milk and Cream
These are needed for eggnogs and shakes, flips
and creamy cocktails, and also for topping up and
garnishing. Cream, buttermilk and plain yogurt are
also very suitable for mixing.
Glassware
Presentation is a seduction of the senses, and
needs an artist’s touch. As important as the drink,
this demands a colorful imagination. Generally a
collection of six to eight variations of glassware are
enough for a standard bar. The right glasses not only
make the appearance of your drink pleasant but
enhance smell and taste.
Same as steel ware, glassware needs absolute sparkle
to look attractive and inviting. Take care to wash
glasses immediately after use, especially if you have
used cream, milk or eggs in the drinks. Wash the
glasses separate from rest of the utensils in warm
soapy water. And later rinse them in clean, hot
running water to remove all traces of grease. Gently
dry the glasses with a clean linen dishtowel.
Shapes
Althoughglassmakershavetakentheartofglassware
to a designer’s precision by working out the specific
aromatic and flavor components for each type of
wine and liqueur, there are some broad guidelines
that can serve the purpose of serving.
Plain glass brings out the best color and looks of the
wine. Colored glasses can distort the appearance,
particularly of the white wines. And for that matter
even cut crystal doesn’t appear right.
Traditionallyredwineisservedinbiggerglassesthan
white. Sparkling wines are best served in flute glasses,
tall and thin with straight sides so that the mousse or
fizz gets preserved. The old fashioned saucer shaped
champagne glasses - made popular by the age of
black & white movies - might look good but are not
the best for the sparkling wines.
Fortified wines need to be served in narrower glasses
due to their higher alcoholic strength.
Standard Cocktail Glasses: The large cocktail
glasses’ capacity ranges from 3 to 6 ounces. These
are used to make drinks that include cream or fruit
juice. Smaller ones are best for dry aperitifs
or appetizers and very alcoholic drinks.
Rock Glasses: These are short with
thick bottoms and are used for serving
measures of straight liqueurs, “on
the rock.” These glasses also come in
another style, with a bump rising up
from the base of the glass. The capacity
stands anywhere from 4 to 10 ounces.
High Ball Glasses: These are tall and

Bars can’t do without fruit juices. They are a must for color and flavors. The classic juices still are
lemon and orange, best if freshly squeezed. Options are - Natural fruit juices, pure juice, but made
from juice concentrate or Fruit nectar, which is a mix of fruit juice, or fruit essence and water.

dry and prevents the off-flavor. An easy way of
storage is to place them on a ‘wine rack’.
Conventionally speaking white wine should be
served chilled and red wine at room temperature.
But this general principle needs more precision.
White wines should not be over chilled or they can
loose flavor. Sparkling wines and sweet wines are
best served at 10 degree Celsius.

the ambient room temperature. The lighter and
fruiter red wines can be chilled in the refrigerator
about an hour before serving.
Red wines, particularly the young ones with tannin
or immature hard acidity, taste best when in contact
with air for a while. Therefore at least twenty minutes
before serving pour the wine into a decanter or a jug. Just
drawing out the cork from the bottle will not add much as
it is only the head part of the bottle that is getting the air.
Airing is also the reason why red wines are served in wider
glasses.
The spectacular fizz!
The glamorous moment of uncorking a sparkling wine
bottle is a sight - the ultimate catharsis of celebration.
But many people prefer to pass-on the honors, fearing
an embarrassing outburst of uncontrollable fizz or a
whimpery of fizzle. To keep your bottle less lively it should
have been resting a while. The more it is shaken before
opening the bigger the pop and fizz.
And don’t pour into a tilted glass. That is for lager..

The general trend - Red wines
with red meats and cheese, white
with fish and poultry, Sherry to start
and Port to finish.
Aperitifs are appetite whetters, and
the best options are sparkling wine
and dry sherry.
Desserts with egg and cream
such as baked custards and mousses
go well with wine. Fruit tarts are best
suited to dessert wines as well.
