A 6-row table: Template · Ratio · Example. Parts by volume.

Who is the Cocktail Ratios poster for?

Cocktail Ratios belongs to the Kitchen section rather than to a school year, because food is not something one grade owns. Anyone learning ratios can pin it up — a beginner, a student mid-course, or someone revising years later.

When should you use the Cocktail Ratios poster?

Strong, sweet, sour. Almost every classic cocktail is a version of that triangle. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Cocktail Ratios belongs on the wall where that food work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.

What other posters go with Cocktail Ratios?

What size does the Cocktail Ratios poster print at?

Cocktail Ratios is a vector PDF laid out for US Letter, and prints on A4 with Fit to page — the same file, no separate download. Because every mark on it is drawn rather than photographed, it stays sharp enlarged to A3, A2 or A1 at a copy shop. Colour carries emphasis only, so a greyscale print of Cocktail Ratios loses nothing.Printing guide
