  • Do you ever feel like you just need a break from alcohol?
    We all need a break sometimes but that doesn’t mean you have to relegate yourself to the kids table with an uninspiring soft drink - you can still make delicious and interesting non-alcoholic drinks. In this episode I will be using some of the easy peasy homemade ingredients from our episode on syrups and so on which you can find below, and showing you how easy it is to make great drinks for you or anyone else who is staying away from the booze!

    This is great! I love doing amateur bartending when I host small parties at home, however I have a couple friends that do not drink alcohol. So I’m always looking for non-alcoholic cocktail ideas to serve them. Thank you!

    One of my favourite iced teas uses a little orange blossom combined with Earl Grey and sugar syrup. Would definitely recommend that to complement this one.

    My wife is 16 weeks pregnant and is missing her normal Tom Collins. I think that berry syrup might hit the right notes for her since she is such a gin fan.

    In the Netherlands we also do Dry J - with us it's January though, not July. It's also Dry January, the idea being that you quit drinking after the holidays, a time durint which you drank so much.
    Both in winter though, I suppose 😝
    Thanks for some great recipes, even though Dry January is over, I still like a fancy drink without alcohol from time to time 😇

  • @darcyrobinson
    @darcyrobinson Před 2 lety +3

    Unrelated to this video unfortunately, but I couldn’t find anywhere else to write you. Could you do a video about making two cocktails at once, spirit based mixing and shaken cocktails too? Just as simple as doubling the ingredients or is there other considerations. Particular drinks where this is really good for and others where it can’t be done. Everyone makes a drink for themselves and a friend!

    • @BehindtheBar
      @BehindtheBar  Před 2 lety +1

      Funny you should ask for this. In two weeks we have an episode coming out that tackles how to make a round of drinks - not quite what you’ve outlined but hopefully lots of good tips in there that will apply.

    That ice tea drink looks a nice idea - will try and steep some sugar syrup when next I've got a chance. Also pineapple shrub sounds good (although would need to skip grapefruit juice due to meds interactions, alas. Maybe blood orange or lime?)

    • @BehindtheBar
      @BehindtheBar  Před měsícem

      I usually do about 1 tsp of loose tea per 100ml or a couple of teabags 😊. Just taste it as it infuses though until it reaches your desired intensity and you can’t really go wrong! You can always strain out and use fresh tea if it starts to get too bitter.
