I don’t mean something like “pour” or “mix” in the English language. The word should capture the idea of pouring from one vessel into another with the goal of going from a semi-heterogenous solution to a mostly-homogeneous solution.

I commonly do this to mix my cocktails. I’m not sure why, but it just seems quicker/easier than either shaking or stirring.

Thanks in advance! Just trying to figure out if it already exists before looking into making up a word for it!

    Norwegian, kind of: to “spe inn” specifically refers to pouring something (usually slowly) from one container, to some other container that already holds something. It’s usually used in the context of cooking.

      Interesting! Would this be similar to how you might temper a raw egg mixture into a warm soup or somesuch?
