Spirit Recipe:
Macerate 2L (0.53 gal) of spirit (aim for 55% abv) with the following botanicals for 3 hours at 55c (131 f):
7g Dried Tarragon
15g Wormwood
10g Fennel
15g Anise
20g uncrushed Juniper
10 crushed juniper
15g Coriander
10g Lemon
1.4g Angelica Root
Proof to 40% then pot distill.
Take a small amount of heads. Around 30ml (1 oz)
Then collect until the botanicals start to lose their flavor or things get a bit weird. Likely around the 55% mark.
Separate half the resulting spirit and heat it back to 50 c (120f) then macerate with the following botanicals for 5-25 min based on flavour:
4g Tarragon
6g Spinach
6g Beans
1.5g hyssup
Sieve the maceration, add it back to the reserved spirit and proof it down to 55% ABV.
Cocktail Recipe:
2 parts Coronation absinthe/gin
1.5 parts Honey syrup
1.5 parts lemon juice
white of one egg
Dry shake
Add ice and shake again. Strain into a glass, top up with soda water and garnish with angostura and a cheese crisp.

I often include affiliate links in my videos and descriptions. This will not change the price for you at all, but the seller will give me a small kickback. Cool eh?
What was Erin's favorite food/snack/candy as a child? You could distill it and see if she can identify it in a blind taste test.
Hah, thats solid
Hello, I'm from a place where the name Moonshine is literally moonshine as brewing and distilling is prohibited over here. So, there are lots and lots of unhealthy illegal product that effects the health of drinkers causing sickness and untimely deaths. Thanks to your channel I've learnt the art of brewing and distilling safely. But still i have to do it in the cover of the night(under the light of the moon😅) as it is illegal. But I'm glad and happy that I can provide some drinkers with a healthy one and all thanks to you and your channel. Wishing you good health and a happy life. Thank you very much.
It smells like chlorophyll, the green pigments in plants that catalyzes photosynthesis. Alcohol is an excellent solvent at extracting organic compounds, like chlorophyll, so your solution is able to become far more deep green (more molecules of chlorophyll) in color than boiling veggies in normal water.
The cocktail is absolutely a King Chuck Sour.
Made garlic wine then took it to garlic spirits 80%brought it back down with apple juice and distilled water to around 40% its like a soft drink on the palette and goes down so easy without a bad head next morning lol I owe it to your channel jessy for making it understandable with all your excellent content I had no idea how it All connected until I stumbled on one of your videos in like 2021 that made it digestible for me since I've made some great shine and it's far easier for a beginner to get results by a subscription to your work. Bless you man 💪😉
As an add a side note for those of us who know then ethanol burners work fantastic too thanks guys 😁
"Being at the mercy of the spirit" - :) yeah mate, been there. haha
"Long Live the Quiche"
It's not England that's getting a new king; it's you! The whole kingdom including New Zealand.
Trying a new recipe is always great of course, no matter the flawed reason...
Lots of love from the uk xxxx
i have dryed broad beans in my house at every time and plant them every year for eating
13:48: nope, definitely not James Hewitt's Coronation *drinks more wine*
Cocktail name suggestion: Long Live the Quiche!
Cheers Jesse love your work, Would have loved to see an actual coronation quiche for the tasting to see how many of the quiche flavour carried through!
Super cool experiment brother love the idea
Call it prince to king 🤴
honestly gin and absynthe with a bit of lemon juice/lemonade and sugar is probably my favourite cocktail so idk the ingredient list just sounds like making a pure version of that cocktail
What an interesting thing! I would have thought the spinach and beans too vegetal/grassy. Going to have to give this a go👍
BTW the coronation was for HRH King Chuckles the Turd! Nice recipe. Cheers!
If you only got a half a video finished and told me you had to parent. Your off the hook sir. Too many deadbet dads. Don’t forget like others. Family first always. 😉
Leave it to the British to make baked eggs as honor to the king LOL😊
I'm down with the "gin-synthe" title for the spirit.
For the cocktail, how about "Quiet desperation?" (ya know... since it's the English way)
Green not Pink. Thought I'd something more to say
For the Spirit how about simply "Corination"
Have you thought of an end banner (bottom screen) throughout the video to appreciate your patrons? Instead of a quick video block near the end.
Then run a giveaway if one was to post a screenshot on social media ‘and share’ their name scroll. Could add a little engagement.
Love the content, the crazy laugh throughout and the addition of your lovely wife. Both of you come across as very relatable persons.
Good luck with your endeavors. Best of the world to you and your family.
That's a pretty green.
It was going great the sun was shining the smell of booze in the air, macerations' n' distillations and then '💣💥' Egg white, you could of knocked me over with a feather lol. Another great video Team 👍💯gold.
Not sure if you’re aware but egg whites are very common in cocktails. It gives a fluffy head and a silky mouthfeel to your drink.
Make a gin or whiskey sour with and without the egg white and you’ll notice the difference.
@@golly181 Thanks for that mate 👍.
So I would call the cocktail the Union Jack. And the spirit the enchantress
I liked your meme spirit series a lot because it was just goofy fun, so I'm doing my absolute best to not judge you for this... thing... and I'm MOSTLY succeeding! :P
Made this mashup 4 years ago, didnt liked it so much, Till i spiced it with pinkpepper
Как жаль, что не знаю английского, а так хочется послушать и записать несколько рецептов. Сам делаю джин перегоняю на вакууме, хорошо получается.
Is Marijuana legal in your country/area? I'd love to see a weed infused alcohol 🍸 lol.
Legal or not it taste nice when done with toffee 🙃😁😂
Shroom
I did an atamoya coffee banana cannabis wine once. Had 1.5 lbs of ganja in it. Had an abv of 18% and it absolutely knock out anyone that drank a pint or more
I will try this in Canada where one is legal and the distillation is not lol. 😅
So glad to see you adding your spectacular wife in your videos.
I would say call the spirit How's the Weather and the cocktail The King's Quiche.
Check your blood pressure man as your face got really red lately, btw. love your channel, I am just starting to use oats in my distilling journey and it gives so much nice flavor to the spirit is unreal, stay safe and keep up good work 😁👍
How much oaks do you use
@@dslewilkinson5815 oat meal for 25l of mash 250-300grams just to get that note in, you can put more or less depends of preference, and if you asking about oak, for fast aging I have got small stainless steel tea baskets and I'm using food smoking chips for it, for a 1 liter of 55-65% booze around half of handful, sometimes I am adding also few cherry chips 1/4 of oak chips in a mix (just remember to toast them first and I am also using gas torch to burn them a little bit before they go for aging)
Did you have your shaker blow up on you with the egg white in there?
I watched an episode where you discussed where you buy those awesome t-shirts but i cant find the video... my brother would love one for his birthday
You could call it 'Not too Bad' based on English understatement :)
I've subbed and been watching a bunch of your vids from the ridicules to perfection experiments and am quite impressed with your knowledge and experiments, I know you do it for the love of the craft but as a Scotsman LOL, is there a good $ savings to make a simple vodka, If there is a good cost saving I think I might start with one of those simple machines and go from there, win win, I get to experiment and save money ! Cheers from Canada. PS, have you ever tried to make a Tequila ?
Love the content can you revisit rum and Dunder again ,
I like the name Ginsinthe
I had an idea last night that I'm thinking could be amazing and have never seen or heard of anyone doing it before.
So, in the last month I've seen 2 or 3 videos about distilleries that make spirit from agave and for special occasions they cook a chicken in the still..........they say it adds some flavor.
What about hanging some bacon in the still? Already has a great smokey flavor.
What u think, Sound like a good experiment?
Or the "cloudy king"
For the absgin bottle : "The Royal Green" ?
An interesting recipe! The colouration part with fresh spinach makes me wonder: does the oxalic (sp?) acid from fresh spinach (i) dissolve into the alcohol (ii) react with the other ingredients (iii) stabilise or unstabilise the colour in the long run? Maybe I'll go foraging some Oxalis acetosella for colouration... Thank you for the video!
Have you ever tested alcohol evaporation times? I guess the variables would be strength of alcohol plus external temperature.
Kings stiffy for the name
I just thought, is it a good idea to toast spices, for example making things with cumin seeds, dried chilies, etc all taste 1,000 times stronger / better than straight from the jar/package. So would it taste better to toast them, then distill?
I just did this experiment this week. I only toasted the coriander seeds as my first experiment. A few days later, all you can taste is toasted coriander. Dominates everything. Hopefully it will calm down in a month and allow the other flavours to appear
Interesting idea for sure. Generally thats spice not herbs. Although there are a lot of oil soluable componants to herbs and spices. So Toasting or frying them can help up the flavour.
But I think it would definitly be interesting to try it for star anise, cinimon etc type botanicals.
Sounds a bit like roasted pumpkin. After being roasted the flavor gets very deep and rich. That to me sounds like a good flavor to add to the still.
16:33 shrubbery! Any other Monty Python fans here?
If you ask us how we are doing, we always reply. Not too bad!
Maybe some variant of that would be a great name.
So when will you make a Surströmming absinth or will ot be a gin
Surely it would be a brannvin or malort.
Random question what high temp amylase do you recommend? The regular amylase is fighting me and winning lol😂
How about Chuckie's Crown.
Where is Alans brandy recipe
Sorry mate I updated the description. I used it in this video: czcams.com/video/-E5dOVMInOA/video.html
King big ears
I really wish I could distill alcohol but my country are proper dickheads about it tbh I'd love to move from the US to New Zealand or else where but yea x.D
Does anyone happen to have a link to the brandy sugar wash at all?
Sorry mate! I updated the description. But I used it in this gin video: czcams.com/video/-E5dOVMInOA/video.html
@@StillIt Really appreciate it, thank you!
Name it "king philip"
Call the cocktail “finally mum” 😅
That looks like a $15 (us) cocktail with the cheese wafer on top.
Great, I comment this and you say it in the video!
The Uncle Charlie
That's sick or is it slick
So what do you get when make a gin, absinthe hybrid inspired by a coronation quiche...? An interesting Quagmire spirit apparently😂😂😂
'Real men don't drink quiche' as a suggestion?
Call it abginthe
It so cute she so Awkward on camera ( from usa an no disrespect or hitti g on you wife)
sheesh so thats how ya spell quiche
What about "the redundant wingnut"..... probably a bit nasty.. "better late than never"?😅
What a waste of public money when we're all in a recession and he should have give up the throne for his son william they don't want a war with anybody
Please don't encourage them
