In recent years, the art of mixology has rediscovered the appeal of unexpected objects, transforming products traditionally linked to other rituals into protagonists of the bar. This is the case with cups, for tea or herbal teas, and teapots, which in addition to their original use now serve the purpose of elegantly presenting creative drinks, sophisticated cocktails, and shareable punches.
Used more and more often in trendy establishments and cocktail bars with an eclectic style, these containers allow the customer to be surprised with a vintage appeal, a scenic presentation and an alternative - but functional - way of proposing drinks; all in Japanese style, where each element becomes an integral part of the experience, starting with the dry ice, which is used to create smoke with the intention of proposing cold drinks.
RGLife, in today's in-depth review, then guides you in choosing mugs and teapots for mixology, what are the best models on RGmania and in what contexts they best express their personality.
Cups for drinks and cocktails
As for mugs, the one with plate-raised Tea Cup Versailles 100% Chef in porcelain is actually a pair of mugs that cannot be purchased separately, one pink and one light blue, both with a floral decoration and complete with a glass-stemmed riser saucer, which can turn it into an elegant cocktail glass as part of a retro and sophisticated atmosphere.
The Sonia tea cup with plate in white porcelain with butterfly decoration on the other hand, is available on our site in blue, black and pink variants, designed especially for rooms with a shabby chic style.
The Golden Flower teacups, Butterfly Blue e Oriental Flower, all with porcelain filter and lid, being decorated in oriental style, are then perfect for infusions with oriental flavor, but are also ideal for serving cocktails.
Teapots for drinks and cocktails
Chapter teapots: small in shape but large in yield and available in two sizes, 55 cl and 1.2 l, is the Kyoto Japanese induction teapot made of cast iron, a ferritic material that makes it heavier but also more durable; designed in every detail, so as to pamper customers and guests, for serving the boldest drinks inspired by distant cultures.
With a distinctly Japanese style, on the other hand, is the Mikasa Satori porcelain teapot with blue decorations, a model symbolizing energy, happiness and good luck with its square shapes and raised waves, as well as golden edges to add a touch of elegance.
An illustration typical of Far Eastern cultures is also found on the Crane teapot in white porcelain, as the design of the crane in muted colors stands out, gives it an ethnic touch, and thanks to the steel filter allows for effective brewing.
Also in porcelain, but green, is then the Celadon teapot, tall and capacious, with relief decoration typical of Chinese production, in ideograms mainly from the Sung era.
Glass solutions for drinks and cocktails
Finally, two somewhat unusual but remarkable glass solutions: the Aida glass tea glass, for strong flavors, not surprisingly typical of Bedouin cultures, with a strong and recognizable personality thanks to its sinuous lines.
And the Marble cappuccino cup with plate, also in glass? Elegant and romantic, it is ideal for country and shabby chic style rooms.
So stay tuned to RGmania for the latest arrivals, from the world of the bar but not only!
