The taste of a cocktail is most important, but so is its appearance. To enhance your cocktail experience, add flavors like spices, herbs, fruits and even vegetables to the water. Simply boil a cup of water and sugar separately, then pour into a clean bottle or jar and refrigerate until needed. Instead, bartenders use a liquid sweetener called simple syrup. The sweetener of choice is not sugar, because even the best sugar dissolves slowly in a cocktail shaker. Jams, jellies and preserves bring sweetness, flavor and color to cocktail creations. Half the lyrics don't make any sense but the rhythms and melodies are so beautiful, who even cares?īalanced cocktails have enough sweetness to balance the sour and astringent ingredients, and that sweetness doesn't have to come from juice or simple syrups. I mean, Ed Sheeran wrote is so how could it not be a poetic masterpiece? Not to mention Louis' solo made me weak in the knees the first time I heard it.īest line: "let's split the night wide open and we'll see everything we can, living life in slow motion".Īnother piece written by Ed Sheeran, Over Again is personally my favorite One Direction song of all time.

Laced with poetic lyrics and a soft but climatic beat, 18 is truly a work of art. Again, Louis and Liam wrote it so how could you expect anything less?īest line: "the sky fell down but you've got stars in your yes".ġ8 is arguably the best song one their fourth album, Four. The entire production of this song is literally art and the lyrics are top notch.

It's definitely one of the most out-there songs the boys have ever done and it feels like you've just stepped into an 80's night club when you hear the first chords.
