    I really want to thank you guys; about 18 months ago, during quarantine, I started making cocktails at home following first H2D and then your videos, and I've really learned so much from you guys. I just got hired for my first job as a bartender at a luxury hotel bar in my city, and even though it's a really steep learning curve for someone with no bar experience, I can tell how much knowlegde of cocktail theory, history and technique I've picked up from watching this channel. So thank you so much! It literally changed my life.

    OMG OMG OMG!!! I was given a subscription to Shaker & Spoon in January 2018. I started watching your channel intermittently after that to learn more because I started getting into my own thing. I became a regular on your channel on.... Well, you would know better than me, but I want to say early 2019?? That spring I was talking with one of the partners that started S&S (the guy that taught me to like Campari by making my Negronis 2:1:1 and adjusting over time) and I mentioned you to him. He said he'd check you out because he was always looking for new bartenders tho collaborate with I've been sad that there has not been a collab, but figured there was a reason.
    Point is - I'm glad the two biggest reasons I have a decent bar (140+ bottles) and love to try new cocktails are finally getting together. I just hope you make a drink for them someday. Because I am a long time subscriber of theirs and have kept it up. Excellent cocktails, and a bonus is there are chats with the likes of Sother Teague!

  • @Dsorg28
    @Dsorg28 Před 2 měsíci

    Whiskey sours are always garnished with an orange and a cherry i feel, so i had the idea of adding orange juice and a tinny bit of maraschino cheery juice, really gives it a nice change to the original whiskey sour

    Fresh orange juice is worth trying in every sour cocktail IMO. My favorite is with a reposado margarita. No need for triple sec. it comes out so much fresher and more lively. Extra juice in the mix boosts the gravity and mouthfeel too.

  • @timseguine2

  • @franzfanz

    My personal spec involves misting the top of the cocktail with orange bitters. Orange just goes together so well with whiskey that incorporating a little into every cocktail (however you do it) elevates it so much.

  • @jonlau7937

    excited to try this one! oddly enough amonsgt all the sours, the whiskey ones are my least favorite. I suppose cause i prefer it more spirit forward and i find the sour sorta just muzzles that whiskey flavour. Although your video on Morgenthalers Bourbon renewal is excellent, because i feel like it showcases that creme de cassis! Anyways, this recipe looks great cause it adds a little something and doesnt require a huge prep :) to the bar!! (well not now, its 10:00 am for me haha)

    Whiskey Sour is one of my favorites at the home bar, simple ingredients and easy to make. I'm curious how this orange version would play with a hint of smoke, maybe half islay, half bourbon. Only one way to find out!

    I can confirm rich simple syrup does not last forever. I moved, and found an old batch that was crammed in the back of my bar fridge and entirely forgotten about. It had formed crystalline structures all up and down the sides of the bottle. With that said i tried a teaspoon of it just to see what it would taste like (probably not safe) but the part that had not crystallized tasted totally fine!

    • @TheEducatedBarfly
      @TheEducatedBarfly  Před 2 lety +1

      If your sugar syrup crystalizes all you have to do is lightly heat it and it’ll be just fine to consume. It won’t last FOREVER but should be good for about 6 months

    Adding a touch of orange juice might be a Los Angeles thing. I came across a recipe for something called a Grand Manhattan, which is a Manhattan with orange liqueur and a touch of orange juice. (It's pretty good) The article said it originated at the Biltmore Hotel, but it's not something on their Internet-published cocktail menu. It has the feel of.something from the golden age of Hollywood cocktails, but I couldn't find out anything about it. (I even emailed the Biltmore, but they didn't respond. It was sometime in 2020, so they might not have had anyone around to reply to random emails)

My own personal favorite is Woodford Reserve chocolate bitters. When you make a gin martini, all I can taste is the gin (which I don't care for), and it's a good way to show off different gins.

    LOL who made up that thing about why bartenders use a paring knife ? that's funny because a kitchen is often more tight with more people than most bars. bartenders use a paring knife because it's the proper knife to use for fruits and vegetables. that's what it was created for.
