This video of Bartending Lesson is brought to you by American Bartenders School where in just one or two weeks you could be fully trained and ready to work as a professional bartender.
This drink is called a Salty Dog, great hot weather drink. If you’re out there playing sports on the beach, playing golf, you like a little bit of great fruit juice, you feel a little bit dehydrated, try salty dog.
So you can either use a rock glass or one of these tall glasses. Now what we’re going to do to make it a salty dog is we’re going to salt the rim of the glass. So to do that, we’re just going to take a piece of our lime and we’re going to squeeze a little juice right on the rim, and I’m going to take some salt, which I have right here and just salt the rim of the glass. You can see how that is and you want to use Kosher salt which is the thicker salt or sometimes called sea salt. You don’t want to use regular iodine salt that you have in the salt shaker. It’s too fine and it’s too salty.
We then want to fill up our glass with ice. We’re going to take one ounce of our vodka, there we have it, and then we’re going to fill up the rest of the glass with great fruit juice. Take about half inch off the top. Take one of our long straws and here we have it, a salty dog.
Now if you watched one of the other lessons, this is just like a great hound, except the rim of the glass is salted. Enjoy it.
