    On a side note: That is ABSOLUTELY THE (ONLY) CORRECT way to make a Mojito. Muddling the mint with cane sugar really gets that fresh mint flavor out of it.
    While we're on the topic of rum, I don't recall you ever covering the "pain killer" cocktail. Another great usage of that cream of coconut.

    • @fashnek
      @fashnek Před 4 lety

      Anyway, the IBA and plenty of cocktail experts don’t agree with this technique. For one, the rum typically goes in after ice, and limes are often juiced, not muddled, to avoid pith. Save the muddler for your caipirinhas, where leaves aren’t already making a mess.

      No proud person is going to help make trash, the truth is that there are no difficult vodka cocktails except those that would be better with a different liquor in the first place, so just go wild and mix drinks you like with vodka. It’s going to taste bad but that’s your market.

    My takes on these drinks just for fun:
    Daiquiri (same recipe but use simple syrup that is a 2-1 sugar to water ratio. Even 3-1 if you want lots of sweet. it also does not have to be refrigerated at 2-1 or greater.)
    Old Fashioned (Rum is the same but then muddle a slice of orange under the ice, add .25oz demerara simple at a 2-1 ratio, and add 2 dashes of orange bitters and stir. no lime)
    Cuba Libre (My favorite drink. Rum and lime keep the same but add in 2oz cola syrup after that, stir, and then top off with seltzer. No off the shelf coke. but its still amazing)
    Mojito (i used to make it just like this until i saw your 3 methods video and now the 2nd method [that does not use nitrogen] is my go too. Go watch that video, its so good and still very easy)
    Cold Brew and Cream ( ya. that looks amazing and im going to make that very soon. That sounds about perfect)
    (May I also recommend the Painkiller recipe by How To Drink, its not as easy being 5 ingredients but good god is it amazing)

    • @Quintinohthree
      @Quintinohthree Před 3 lety

      The only ingredients not included in the video that go in a painkiller are pineapple and orange juice. That seems well within what is reasonable. Of course, you'd want to use something approaching British Navy rum, not necessarily Pusser's but something medium bodied with some good oak on it in any case.

    I'd have to argue the opening points about Rum. Having been a 'rum lover' for around 50-years, I have found when setting up my own bars, the first rum spirits I prefer are simply 1. Light Rum (white rum), 2. Bacardi Gold Rum, 3. Bacardi Spiced Rum...and if I want variety from these, possibly a good 'Dark Rum'...(I don't count Pussers in 'Dark' Rums, as it is truly a 'Spiced Rum').
    That said...if you are on a budget, or have 'tight room to set up a personal bar', White, Gold and Spiced will cover almost every drink you can imagine...sometimes with better flavor than the original recipe envisioned....my 'beer-equivalent' mixed drink, personally, is Grog...and while Pussers (a 'spiced Rum') was the British Navy Defacto rum for Grog, I find that the flavor is FAR MORE BALANCED by replacing it with Bacardi Gold Rum. Try that, and see if you don't agree...

      I'd venture that anyone with the vaguest ideas about rum would disagree.
      First of all, Bacardi make some of the least rum-like rum in the world, it's basically vodka with a hint of flavouring and colouring added.
      Secondly, spiced rum is not rum. Hence the different name.
      Third, Pussers is not a spiced rum, with the exception of Pussers Spiced, all their flagship offerings are simply a navy rum following a similar recipe to the rum made for the Royal Navy. If you really want to try something authentic to that, look for some 'Black Tot Last Consignment' which is as close as you can get.
      Fourth, if you're going to put more than 1 rum on your bar, try some variety! Get rums from different regions with different distillation methods, ingredients, or ageing methods. A Jamaican rum is a totally different drink to a Barbados rum, just like a molasses rum is different to a cane juice agricole, and an oak aged is different to an unaged.
      Lastly, you wouldn't categorise any other spirit based on colour, so why do so with rum? It has minimal bearing on flavour. Look up the Gargano Rum Classification method, it makes so much more sense and allows a much more logical approach to understanding what you're drinking.
      While I don't rate Plantation due to their dosing & ageing methods (let's not get started on their attacks on GIs in the Caribbean), the selection shown is a good start at demonstrating the variety rum offers.

      @@SImonSmiles84 An addendum, while the Gargano classification is worthwhile in the way it emulates the Scotch-Irish classification of whisk(e)y, something a little more expansive is necessary to decide on a minimal set to stock your bar with. Martin Cate's classification presented in Smuggler's Cove (SC) into a good two dozen categories of which 8 are numbered and recommended as most essential or Matt Pietrek's "six essential tiki rum categories" presented here cocktailwonk.com/2019/10/six-essential-tiki-rum-categories.html and more extensively in Minimalist Tiki (MT) are perhaps better guides on what to get for maximum variety.
      As for the quality of Bacardi rums; while none of the colour coded offerings warrant a recommendation, and spiced and flavoured rums are actively recommended against, MT does include Bacardi Quatro (4) in category 3, and SC includes Bacardi Ocho (8) and Diez (10) in recommended category 4. There is plenty carrying the Bacardi name you should probably avoid categorically if you want a quality cocktail, but that leaves a good selection to keep on consideration nonetheless.
      Finally, while Plantation 3 Star, Original Dark and OFTD are perhaps the best set of just 3 rums from a single brand you could stock your bar with, it's worth getting bottles from several brands, and to explore alternatives regularly anyway. Between the two of us I think we've provided some good resources.
      Edit: I think I misinterpreted your final paragraph. I wholeheartedly agree Nick shows a great sampling of what rum has to offer on the video.

    I’ve been making Cold Brew and made the Cold Brew and Cream quite a few times the last months. I called it “Coffee Cove”, a name I’ll happily lend if you’d like! It’s great!

      Instead, drink Licor 43 over rocks. It’ll beat a cocktail that integrates vanilla.
