Various special terms are used in bartending terminology. In bartending, the term "straight up" (or "up") refers to an alcoholic drink that is shaken or stirred with ice and then strained and served without ice in a stemmed glass.〔 ASIN: B000F1U6HG.〕 This is contrasted with a drink served "neat" – a single, unmixed liquor served without being chilled and without any water, ice, or other mixer.〔〔"(Up, Neat, Straight Up, or On the Rocks )", Jeffrey Morgenthaler, Friday, May 9, 2008〕 Neat drinks are typically served in a rocks glass, shot glass, snifter, Glencairn glass or copita. "On the rocks" refers to liquor poured over ice cubes, and a "rocks drink" is a drink served on the rocks. Rocks drinks are typically served in a rocks glass, highball glass, or Collins glass. The term "up" is less ambiguous than "straight up", because sometimes the term "straight up" is used to mean "neat".〔 The term "straight" is also sometimes ambiguous, as it can be used to mean either "up" or "neat".〔 Drinks establishments will often have a lower-priced category of drinks, known as "well drinks" or "rail drinks", and a higher-priced category known as "top-shelf" or "call" drinks, and will use upselling by offering the higher-priced category when taking orders. Terminology for the drink size can be found at shot glass. ==Definitions and usage== There is substantial confusion in the usage of "neat", "straight up", "straight", and "up".〔 In the context of describing ways of serving a drink, all of these mean "served without ice", but some bar patrons and bartenders use them inconsistently. "Neat" and "up" are relatively unambiguous; the term "neat" means "a single, unmixed liquor at room temperature", and "up" means "chilled and served without ice in a cocktail glass".〔 "Straight" is often used interchangeably with "neat" (in the United Kingdom, Canada, and the United States). However, "straight" is also often used to refer to a spirit that is in an unmixed state in general, in addition to being used to describe a way of serving it. For example, many Bourbons are identified as "Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey" on their bottling labels, and U.S. Federal law contains a legal definition of the term "straight whiskey". So sometimes "straight" may be used to mean ''either'' "straight up" (as defined above) or "neat", and clarification may be needed to determine the exact manner for serving it. "With a twist" signals the bartender to add a "twist" of lemon or lime (bar choice, if unspecified) to the cocktail. Often, the bartender will hang the rind of the citrus on the glass as a garnish (see martini photo above). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「bartending terminology」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
