[…] on parlera donc de mixologie moléculaire. […] L'objectif est d'aller toujours plus loin dans la recherche de nouvelles sensations en modifiant la texture, la forme et le goût des produits initialement utilisés pour l'élaboration du cocktail. On pourra utiliser dans ce cas des procédés faisant appel à des substances telles que l'azote liquide, le dioxyde de carbone, des enzymes ou bien même des hydrocolloïdes.
