Damn, this is what cooking is all about. Getting together with new minds to learn more techniques and come up with new ideas. Looking forward to trying this margarita out! Stellar facking content!
jackieL1228 search cocktail kingdom on amazon! All their supplies have become industry standard - and their website has some pretty prize pieces ;)
Jacob Perez sharing pro tips is what it’s all about!! 🤘⚡️ thanks for having me guys!
The Dork Web thanks for the reply I will definitely look into them.
As a bartender myself, I love that she didn’t salt the entire rim. I do that all the time and customers appreciate it!
She changed my margarita life
Wooo Sister of the bar!! skills pay bills amiright?? I appreciate this - props always have that little extra when they come from someone who knows the game ;) Cheers!
The Dork Web oh hey! Yes it definitely pays the bills! And I do it part time, I earn great money in my full time job but personally love being a bartender and being able to give the customer a great drink and experience all
While collecting those tips!
Daniela Rodriguez ha you speak sooo truuue 🙌🙌🙌 a lot of bartenders focus almost tooo much on the drinks and forget about the people ;) We’re performers and psychologists and makers 🤘⚡️👽
Haha I didn’t know that was a thing, when she salted just a bit I thought “why not salt the whole thing!!” I always make sure the salt is enough for every sip when I order a margarita
I have to admit, when I saw the time of the video, I thought, "How do you get 18 minutes on making a margarita?"" Never been so happy to be wrong! Learned a lot about technique, felt like I was behind the bar the first day learning the real work. Thanks to you and Jen for the great piece!
I’m loving this chemistry. Have her around more!
DGODOOM cheers! Can’t wait for more! 🙏🤘
She's cool AF, do more episodes with her. Super interesting
This was a nice tutorial. I learned so much even as a newbie who has already watched dozens of other videos. Really appreciating the small details from the ice explanation, the half rimming and not allowing salt to fall in when pouring, when she mentioned filling the jigger all the way to the top, even explaining the way the hawthorn strainer can act as a gate. These tiny details helped me to improve my margarita. Love her personality as well. This was great!
So enjoyed your bartender friend. Very cool and easy to follow along. Thanks for the tips! I like that the rim had areas salted and not. Looking forward to the mojitos! I have a bunch of mint in my garden!
Winnie Dolderer fresh mint🍃😍 your mojitos will be the best! Thank you! I’m enjoying meeting everyone here 😁😋 cheers!
A few small additions:
For rimming the glass, use maldon salt, tastes a whole lot better, flakes are nicer and are less strong then normal salt. For rimming, make a small cut to lime wedge and place the corner of the glass in the cut, you can make a easy and even round around the glass then.
For adding sugar, i prefer agave syrup
Replace cointreau with grand marnier which is a orange flavored cognac, the taste will change drastically, might not be everybodys ball game
I prefer reposado tequila over bianco, 1800 is my favorite but it doesnt matter too much after the second glass :)
I agree with the agave syrup and salt flakes! I find that with a nice aged tequila I often don’t use salt at all.
Do you use the same proportion for the Agave ? Thanks !
I just made the Margarita as per Jen’s recipe. It is amazing! Best Margarita ever, hands down!
I'm glad this will be a series. I really want to learn how to make more cocktails!
I just official anointed her the shows "Cocktail Consultant"
I like the idea of doing drink recipes. You should bring Jen back and maybe to drink pairings with your great food recipes.
I love the chemistry, in the glass and outside! 😉
Nice one. I love a good Margarita. I use agave syrup instead of simple syrup. Sometimes I add Mezcal too.
Chef May I yess!! I do love agave and honey play for the the sweetening agent🙌 sometimes I do half honey half simple ;) cheers!
Do you use the same ratio for Agave ? Thanks!
Really great information in this one! I had no idea about the “gate” and how to use one until I watched this video. Great interaction between you two! I loved how she walked you through making your own drink from start to finish. Since I grow fresh jalapeños, I will definitely be trying the jalapeño infused margarita.
Hey man, something different. I like it! Can't wait for the mohitos!
"mojito"
Come ooooon, mojito is so over-used. There are plenty of good and simple drinks. Fuck mojito
Excellent information as always!! Thumbnail smashed expectations as usual, Jen you rock, and you both have cool hair!!
Cooking with Sonny ha thank you!🙏💁🏻♀️ the better to shake with! 🤘😁 Cheers!
"whatru doin' tonight?" Is the new "how YOU doin?" 🤣
That was a fun one! I think Jen should come teach you how to make drinks as a regular thing for your show! 😏
Intro's are BACK! Thanks, bro!!
so cute love the line cravings in the limes! super creative great idea we love that look! plan to try it soon thank you for posting helpful content for bartenders
Well done Jen love seeing you on the show - another great cocktail thank you
this was soooo nice, you made me smile! Thank you for all the cool videos! Good luck!
The more margaritas you drink, the more you like Tequila
Wayne Ogle facts
I go away for a few months and come back and you turn into a superstar. All that hard work is paying off but also remember to enjoy the ride. Also great video. Should do one on vodka martinis.
Haha what is up bud! Hope you’re well. Very grateful for the blessing by youtube
Love it, man! Awesome to see your guests - Jen rocked it!
Brian Sellers cheers man!! I always hope to reach high levels of rockin🙏🔥Thank you!🤘⚡️ ha will “amp” up my energy next time 😅
The Dork Web Ha, as I said - rockin’ was being done. Or achieved. Or plugged in. Whatever happened, the margarita game was cranked up to 11 for sure!
Steve is one of my favorite creators, even though he and I have totally different channels. He tries to inspire and help people through his love of food; I try to do it through a love of helping people challenge themselves and choose happy in life... Guess we’re actually not that different after all!
Anyway, great stuff, and we’ll try your recipe next time we have a summer bash! Thanks again!
Really enjoyed this episode. You guys work well together
Love this!! Can’t wait to try and make one.
Making a Mexican Dinner for tonight's New Years Eve with another couple. I will definitely this recipe and tips from you both to accompany the food. Would be awesome to enjoy a Marg with you and chat about food and cooking it. Thank you for all your amazing well produced videos and kitchen knowledge. I have been on my cooking journey for over 5 yrs now. I've migrated thru quite a few of the usual suspect Chef's all who have helped to get me started. But this past year I have discovered Chef Jeanne Pierre and now you! My two personal favorite "Kitchen now it all's" for learning and recipe instruction. You both take your time to explain in great detail the what, how and why for food prep and cooking of a recipe. Keep up the good tasty work! CHEERS 8-)
My favorite summer cocktail.
Well, I just had one of those ; ) Purchased all the same ingredients and yum, it's a good Margarita! Feel like I took a valium lol ; ) Nice!!!! Thanks for sharing. I was in New Orleans last Summer and had a delicious pineapple Margarita, would like to see if I can recreate that cocktail. Yes, have a segment on Mojitos! I like those. Thanks Jen ; )
Been a cocktail bartender for over 10 years in London but also love cooking. Always feel like cooking channels on YT miss the mark when they try and make drinks "I've paired my artisanal pasta with incredible seasonal ingredients with this disgusting syrupy sweet and sour mess."
This is the first time I feel a "cooking show" has NAILED a cocktail (although I'm personally not a fan of casamigos or 'lime tattooing'). I hope Jen goes on to show some cocktails of her own creation.
It's amazing to me that chefs who put a huge focus on fresh, seasonal ingredients, always overlook the same principles when making drinks.
blksky 😂😂😂🎯🎯🎯 “-with this disgusting syrupy sweet and sour mess.” EXACTLY! The mind shift is happening...! Chef Achatz and my old Aviary crew brought my mind into a whole WORLD of possibilities and new considerations for mixed drinks - with and without alcohol🙏🔥⚡️
I also LOVE cooking and pastries - that only makes us better bartenders! Future-forward. Finding balance.💪 Fresh ingredients. Yes. Same principles-New techniques. YES. Creating new things. HELLS YES🤘⚡️🙌
Thank you for watching! LOVE comments from my brothers and sisters of the bar 👊 [any chance you know The Parlour, folks?] Cheers!
Nice vid 👍. Been leaning towards Mezcal in my margaritas. Love the pleasant smokiness.
I haven't seen lime art before like that. Super cool! I'm stealing this!
this is awesome, love a simple recipe
Love Jen's style
Now that is a margarita. Making these this weekend. Great video.
we need more of these episodes every so often
The first 8 minutes and 40 seconds are satisfying my ocd. I like to have all of the ingredients ready to dump in as i need them
The show and this drink was legit!! I want to see another tutorial with Jen on making her version of mojoito cocktails 😎👍
Why is this one of my favorite episodes? ❤️
Mise en place for cocktails. This woman rocks!
I see you👀 flirtin😂😂😂
All jokes aside its wonderful that you showcased something new😊. Its really nice seeing you learning as you go. Its phenomenal
I use same recipe but I use agave syrup instead of simple syrup. It adds to the flavor profile. I'm surprised she doesn't use it.
How to make a perfect margarita. Looks amazing well done
love her databank casio! im wearing mine rn!
Great vid, loving your editing style.
Oh WoW, I’m not a fan of cocktails but this recipe I want to try! Here we go!
Made me tingle ❤ beautiful art. In drink form
Classy, need I say more. Been following you for some time, enjoy all your dishes, you make pasta easy.
Dude great job on this video. I learned some really good tips, I love the tattooing of the limes, and the pics you set up of the finished cocktail were dope. I love tequila, but it’s definitely not all the same. I’ve made many margarita’s with that same standard recipe, used both blanco and repisoda tequilas. I’ve enjoyed blanco that’s only $20 a liter like El Jimador and really didn’t like $30 blanco like Espolon. But with reposada it seems like you’re getting what you paid for that’s for sure. Casamingos is quality, George Clooney did it right when he made that line of tequila. I also love Codigo which is around the same price point, easier to find for me up here in Maine. And anything that Hornitos does in my opinion is quality, especially their Crystalino, damn that shits good lol. Again great job to the both of you, killer video loved the tips and tricks
I’ve made the spicy version too and let the jalapeño infuse the tequila for a couple hours. It was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I was watching your channel not paying attention to the amount of views you get, and went to see how many you get and expected at least a million! You are so underrated
Learned a lot, good tips 👍🏽
16:59 that's one hell of an outro~ XD good job my man! i don't really drink alcohol but this one makes me want to taste it.
Bryan Umarjaya oh no I opened a curiosity door! I also did consulting for NYC’s first 0% alcohol bar so perhaps a mocktail episode in the future! They stand alone as tasty mixed drinks 🍹🙏🤘😋
I enjoyed my man Rocky Balboa trying to get a close up of the lime tattooing @7:13
lmao
Great video need more of these 👍
Im not a bar tender and never have been, but I like to make cocktails at home. I like to use a good Reposado and Grand Marnier as the two spirits. Instead of simple syrup, I prefer agave syrup.
This was cool to watch. I used to work in a Mexican restaurant and I make my margarita’s with the same ingredients (Cointreau really is the best)
Definitely need to get my hands on a jigger and shaker, I usually just eye ball lol.
Another great video!!!
love the aesthetic
Great episode!! I love margaritas and this was a great representation of a proper margarita. A couple of things that I would like to point out.
Always use a tequila that's made from 100% agave. This means that it's nothing but tequila. This will always be prominently displayed on the label. If it's not 100% agave, other sugars, are used to lower the cost of making the tequila, but your flavor is inevitably also diminished.
In the video, you used a blanco or silver tequila. That's a great choice. These tequilas will be aged for no more than three months in stainless steel containers. It's my opinion that these tequilas will give you the stronger taste that you need in order to better balance with the other ingredients. If you use a Reposado, it'll be the most aged tequila. Fantastic to taste, but gets lost in the lime juice, Cuantro and sweetness of the syrup. Happy tasting!!
This was great
I love this show. She is amazing.....so are you.
gcbwoods cheers! Thank you!!
@@TheDorkWebyou are very welcomed
What a hoot! Great video. I am a tequila lover and love margaritas. Great lesson for me.
im a bartender, and i like this way of garnishing etc .... will use that technique of only salt a side of tumbler instead of making a rim on a martini-glass ... yaaas dude
You're about to make me the drunkest cook my boyfriend and roommates ever met. Haha. Nice video!
The more Margarita you drink, the more fun you have!
My dude, where did you get that heavy duty lime juicer. I really need to get me one of those, my current one is bent as hell
I TOTALLY want her shirt!
another great vid Brother
thanks Gen you are a Gem...
Wow she's adorable and super, super talented!
Idk if you'll ever see this comment, but you've inspired me to try and open my own food cart, would love any advice you have to offer. Love your personality and your recipes. Keep up the AMAZING work!!!!
2 oz tequilla
3/4 oz lime
1/2 oz cointraeu
< 1/4 of simple syrump
Half rim of salt, always.
I have found that yours and my recipes are very similar. In Canada, by law, we can only do 2oz of liquor in a drink, so mine is 1oz tequila (I like Casamigos as well), and .5oz Cointreau, and 1oz lime. I use a touch of OJ (.25oz-.4oz) in mine, and half an ounce of Agave syrup rather than simple syrup. The OJ gives a bit of colour, and the agave just gives a little more flavour.
7:02 It looks like Sylvester Stallone is really enthralled by this!
I know it’s a sin but I like to add a pinch of salt to the drink rather then salting the rim to tame the saltiness but still bring out the lime. Tajin is also really good on the rim :)
Mage mango margaritas this season with Tajin on the rim. Also added jalapeño juice to a few to change it up. It was awesome.
J-Mac.. "pinch of salt... Not a sin, contrarily it shows class and respect.
Cool video man. I Need to start making mine own. When's the next video coming. Can't wait.
Cool watch, I bought it when it first came out in the 80's! Hahaha
SuperOCHomes 😍😍😍🤘 observant!! Great minds buy watches alike lol - fun fact/nerd fact: I needed one for work and REALLY wanted a replica of Marty McFly’s from the first Back to the Future.. 🤓😂 Cheers!
make a mojito video next! you are a great duo! keep up the good work!
Can't wait to be the most popular guy at parties now. Great video!
Mark Claudio hahaha I am now picturin you walkin around with a trench coat with a bar inside 😂🤘🙌 the MOST popular!
@@TheDorkWeb I'll have shakers up my arm sleeves lol.
Great video. Stay on her good side she can teach us all a lot. Hope you have her back.
Man, love your show! and now with drinks and Jen. Someday go for "Pisco Sour" or "Chilcano" Greetings from Perú!
Mariano Canales wow! Perú! I LOVE a good Pisco drink! My sister just brought me back beautiful llama crafts from her trip! Love llamas haha, llamas and pisco ;) Cheers!!
The Dork Web Jen! Send you the mistic "llama power" and shot of pisco. Salud!
Mariano Canales 😍🙏🙌🦙✨!! I feel soo alive!⚡️💗 Cheers from Brooklyn!
That's a... lovely date lol
Wow! I learnt something new! I did not know Cointreau was Triple Sec... I always thought they were two different things
Vicram Purshotam Cheers! Love to learn something new every day 💪🤘🤓 So many fun facts to share - stoked to find what more everyone wants to know! 🙏😝
Omg 🍻 cheers
Very nice video!!!
Amazing. One of the cleanest margarita's to date. What was your camera setting ? Shutter Speed, Iso & Aperture ?
I need the mojito episode!!!!
Nice, regards from Chile
Noice 😀😀😀😋I make my Margarita tonight and was Awesome Also thanks for your advice very helpful Imma try to make jalapeño margarita let see how it goes thanks🙏🙏🫶love the tutorial and the girl very Caring 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I don’t even drink alcohol but I still watched because I enjoy your channel
Cheers guys - You two have a good rapport and I learned a lot! Now to take back everything I said about not drinking for a while and buy some "kwaantrooo" ;)
Very nice. I just use the recipe on the Cointreau bottle. 2 blanco, 1 Lime, 1 Cointreau. There’s no need to add simple syrup. Of course, adjust to your personal taste.
This is my favorite margarita and I've been making it now for years. I do add alittle more agave for my husband because he likes it sweet lol. The problem is that I make it a glass at a time when my friends come over. They all want seconds and thirds : ). My question is how can I make this recipe for a small group of 4 or 5? Can I make this ahead and just use my math skills lol? Does it store ok the night before so I'm not making it all the next day. Thanks in advance.
We need more cocktail videos pls :)
I don't smoke or drink..yet I'm watching how to make Margaritas...😂🤣
Nice Rocky Shirt bro!
Well done
I won't lie about my circumstances out here in CA. This type of access requires a trip into San Franciso. Otherwise, it is a bunch of cow towns up North. New York seems to provide a homogeneity unachieved throughout Cali. Yes, the further South you go in CA the less the "Leave it to Beaver, Mayberry" you get--you just trade it in for anonymity with the despair of endless sprawl. It's the classic "grass is greener" scenario. In less flowery terms I'm saying a cool bartender like this isn't just going to drop out of the sky and hit you on your head in the spaces I seem to occupy.
