  • Thanks to a viewer suggestion I made one of the best syrups I've ever tasted! (thanks @nathangrover1655 ) It is a syrup made with Apple Cider, sugar and spices and it is absolutely delicious! Go ahead and watch the video to learn how.
    I made an old fashioned he also suggested:
    1.5 oz Cognac
    .5 oz Aged Blended Rum
    .25 Apple Cider Syrup
    1 dash Walnut Bitters
    Also Check out ‪@AngryCocktails‬ Andrew's Apple Syrup: • Thanksgiving Cocktail ...
    I also made Apple Shrub, which Ive made may times ( • How To Make Any Shrub! ) But this time with a twist! Thanks to misunderstanding ‪@none_remaining‬

    Thanks for the shoutout Uncle Pete! I also found an apple juice reduction to be more like a sour mix than a sweet syrup. Today I'm reducing sparkling alcoholic cider to see what that's like.

      Sounds great! I look forward to hearing about it!

    My Apple old fashioned is:
    2 oz Apple Cider
    1 oz Rittenhouse Rye
    1 oz Laird’s Applejack
    .5 oz Giffard Vanilla de Madagascar
    2 dashes toasted almond bitters (Fee Bros)
    Fresh grated cinnamon

    Hell yeah that can’t be bad!
    My lackluster “instructions” would be at fault before any “misunderstandings” should laid at your feet! Glad you did this, though, because it sounds so flexible for much less work than my silly process of reducing 16oz down to 2 or whatever it takes to thoroughly thicken and sweeten.
    Winter highballs sound as rewarding as that Colonial AF OF. Butternut shrub here I come!

      Ha! Thanks for understanding!
      Never attempted butternut shrub, let me know how it goes!

    You made my drink!
    Yes, you ended up with the same cognac/rum ratio I did. And doing it up as a highball with the shrub-genius.
    Thanks, Uncle Pete. You really made my day!

      @@UnclePete Excellent. Taking a cue from you, I threw my first cocktail party a couple weeks ago and put this one on the menu, billed as "Old Fashioned, Hung with Care"-though, you're right, it was actually a fall drink.
      The menu had 5 holiday-ish themed cocktails, including El Presidente, which was a real stretch: "Tonight you will be junta'ed by three ghosts."
      Weirdly I think folk's favorite was my "Reindeer Flip." I'd planned it as a kind of ugly Christmas sweater cocktail that would use up the sweet stuff at the back of the liquor cabinet. A whole egg and some grated spice can cover a multitude of sins, I guess!
      I look forward to more Pete-inspired cocktail adventures and concocting in 2024!

      @UnclePete  Před 5 měsíci +2

      I love that you came up with holiday themed names! That is awesome! And yes, a flip pretty much always works!
      Thanks so much for watching!

    Tried a version of the highball in this one, with a commercial apple shrub I happened to have around... Wow, great stuff! Curious now to try the old fashioned, and the highball just might enter regular rotation. I'll be sure to give credit if I put it on my menu. 😁
