Bottled Sodas (per bottle)

Method

Bottled Sodas (per bottle)

  1. 1

    Chill bottles

    Refrigerate Boylan's bottled sodas for at least 2–4 hours before service, or store at 36–40°F (2–4°C). For faster chilling, place bottles in ice water for 20–30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Inspect bottle

    Check the bottle cap and label for damage. Ensure the bottle is unopened and the liquid is clear (or as expected for the flavor).

  3. 3

    Serve bottled

    Present the bottled soda directly to the guest chilled. Optionally, place the bottle on a napkin or coaster with a paper straw alongside. If requested, open the bottle at the table and pour into a prepared glass.

Service Garnish & Glass Service

  1. 4

    Prepare glass

    If serving in a glass, fill a 12 oz highball with 1 cup of fresh ice. Use clean ice and avoid overfilling—leave about 1 inch from the rim for pouring.

  2. 5

    Optional garnish

    For ginger ale or Boylan's Orange, offer a fresh lemon wedge. If the guest accepts, squeeze the lemon wedge lightly over the glass and drop it in.

  3. 6

    Pour soda

    Open the bottle carefully to avoid foaming. Tilt the glass at a 45° angle and pour the soda slowly down the side to preserve carbonation. Stop pouring when the liquid reaches about 1/2 inch from the rim to avoid overflow.

  4. 7

    Present to guest

    Place the bottle (if not poured) or the filled glass on a coaster. Add a paper straw or stirring spoon and a napkin. Mention the flavor plainly (for example, 'Boylan's Cane Cola') and ask if they'd like ice or a lemon wedge.
