Seasonal Cocktail Possibilites

Hubble is more focussed on beer and for this has focussed and also doesn't offer a lot of different cocktails & mocktails if you compare it with Meteor. Cocktails are often more expensive then Meteor and the cocktails need to be made by hand. 

We normally don't shake our cocktails in Hubble. We normally go for an recipe that is easy to understand for bartenders that have only bartended twice in their life. They should be able to understand how to make it.

Cocktail calculation:

The cocktail in Hubble is calculated to contain:

2 shots + bottle of soda

For Hubble, we typically think of cocktails recipes using 2 shots and 1 bottle of soda (200 ml).

Mocktail calculation:

The mocktail in Hubble is calculated to contain:

2 bottles of soda

Use of ingredients:

Liqour
For cocktails, we use 2 shots of liquor. This could be 2 shots of the same liquor (for example: 2 shots of wiskey), or 2 shots of 2 different liquors (for example: 1 shot liqor 43 and 1 shot triple sec).

Soda
Because we use bottles of 200ml, we avoid recipes that require only part of a soda bottle, as the remaining content would go to waste.

Juices, however, are supplied from larger packs, which makes them more flexible to work with. For example, a cocktail can include 150 ml of orange juice and 50 ml of cranberry juice without any issue.

This flexibility does not apply to soda. A recipe using 100 ml sparkling water and 100 ml cassis would likely result in leftover soda that cannot be reused. We also avoid using larger bottles, such as 1.5 L, because once opened, the soda quickly loses its carbonation and quality.

Syrups:

Syrups are mostly used for mocktails when thrying to recreate the taste of the cocktail or sometimes just to give the cocktail a little bit more flair. Sometimes, we use it in cocktails when we feel it adds to the drink, but most of the time, we try to avoid it.

Garnish:
Garnish is a non-liquid addition to the cocktail/mocktail. Sometimes it adds to the taste to add a slice of lemon or some mint into the drink. We do not use garnish for every drink. Only when it is needed.

Seasonal ingredient:

It is possible to request an additional ingredient that Hubble does not normally have in stock but that you would like to use in a cocktail/Mocktail. Please note that this is not always guaranteed, as the ingredient must be available through our supplier. However, our supplier offers a wide range of options.

Liquor
You may use a different type of liquor, as long as it is not too expensive. In addition to being used in the seasonal cocktail, this liquor will also be offered as a seasonal shot for guests to purchase separately.
Examples of suitable seasonal liquors include limoncello, jenever, Malibu, brandy, strawberry liqueur, lychee liqueur, etc.

Seasonal soda or juice
This can be either a soda or a juice. Keep in mind that carbonated drinks must always be served in 200 ml bottles. This is because carbonation is lost quickly when larger bottles are opened. Juices, on the other hand, can be supplied from 1-liter packages and are therefore more flexible to use.
Examples of seasonal sodas: ginger beer, Fanta Lemon, iced tea peach
Examples of juices: peach juice, pear juice, mango juice

Seasonal syrup
In some cases, we may add a syrup if it significantly enhances the drink. This is most commonly used in mocktails to replicate the flavor of the cocktail. Hubble typically uses Monin syrups, which are also commonly used in specialty coffee drinks such as flavored lattes.
