Character – The distinctive identity of your drink. Is it tropical, exotic, fruity, frozen, mixed, sweet, sour, spicy, dignified, old class, after dinner, shooter or seasonal? Are you trying to pair it with food or a special theme? There are many different elements your cocktail can take on, so it's important to define it before you begin.

Taste – The culmination of what people see and experience from an aroma. The immediate flavors the tongue collects are; sweet (tip of the tongue), salty and sour (at the sides) panera catering menu and bitter panera catering menu (back of the tongue). The time it takes to stimulate different areas of the tongue vary, with bitter receptors taking the longest.
Texture - The blending of ingredients; they can't be too thick or thin. A consistent, smooth quality cocktail is one that is easily drinkable, not thick like pudding or runny like soup. Cocktails should also be firm and clean, not watered down.
Balance - The elements of a cocktail working together to produce a smooth panera catering menu and balanced drink. The strength of the cocktail shouldn't be overpowering and neither should any of the other ingredients.
