- Did you ever wonder how to clarify lemon juice to make clarified cocktails? I made clarified Penicillin and Aviation cocktails with lemon juice that I clarified with agar (or agar agar). These were made as a pair of cocktails perfect for Valentine's Day, but you can use these recipes any day of the year!
Milk clarification is great, but it will change the texture of the cocktail so give this method a try. Find the recipes below.

Clarified Lemon Juice:
• 300 ml (10 oz) Freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 0,6 g Agar Agar
Add Agar Agar to ¼ of the lemon juice (75 ml or 2,5 oz) in a small saucepan and bring to a slow simmer, whisking constantly. Once the Agar dissolves completely, turn down the heat and slowly whisk in the rest of the lemon juice. Place the saucepan in a freezer or ice bath for 1-2 hours to form a soft gel. Then strain it through a filter and a cheesecloth. Bottle the clarified lemon juice and keep it in the fridge. Use within two days for the best results.
Beetroot paint:
• 100 ml (3.33 oz) Beetroot juice
• 1,8 g pectin
Heat up the beetroot juice until it starts to simmer then pour it into a blender and add pectin. Blend for 30 seconds, strain through a cheesecloth, and place it in the fridge in a small sealed jar for at least 2 hours. Shake up before applying the brush to the inside of the frozen glass.
Ms. :
• 45 ml (1.5 oz) Monkey 47 gin
• 22,5 ml (0.75 oz) Maraschino liqueur
• 22,5 ml (0.75 oz) clarified lemon juice
• 2 barspoons violet liqueur
Throw or stir the cocktail, then serve it in a chilled glass and garnish with a pansy flower.
Mr. :
• 45 ml (1.5 oz) Chivas Extra Regal 13
• 15 ml (0.5 oz) D.O.M. Benedictine
• 15 ml (0.5 oz) clarified lemon juice
• 1 barspoon simple syrup
• 1 barspoon Peated Malt Whisky (float)
Add all ingredients except the peated whiskey and throw or stir the cocktail, then serve it in a chilled rocks glass with beetroot paint inside the glass and a single large ice cube. Float a barspoon of peated malt whisky on top.
Enjoy responsibly!

As you might have seen before the start of the video, we made it to the CZcams Partner Program. This really couldn't have been done without the help of this awesome community. Thank you so much for helping us reach this milestone! We'll continue working hard to deliver the content you've come to expect when you take the time to watch an episode of Cocktail Time.
Congrats!! Onward and upward. Another terrific video.
Thank you!
This is so exciting for you! We’re sorry it took a minute to watch this; life got a bit busy this week but so incredibly happy for you! Kindly, Theresa & Cam
@@FlourEggsYeastbetter late than never 😃 thanks a lot! Cheers Cam and Theresa!
Hey Kevin! What type of cheesecloth are you using for this clarification? I've tried using the cheesecloth my kitchen orders, and it doesn't seem fine enough to filter out all the particulates.
Kevin, thank you for walking through life with me, hand in hand.
1:58 - I'm soooo satisfied with how this shot turned out! So cool to be able to think of stuff like this and be a part of a team that can pull it off way better than I hoped!
It looks great! Great job Robi!
Yea dude honestly it was seemless idk how you did it. Flow was crazy and I was like woah when did he juice all those lemons
Robi, It did turn out great!!
@@boozeontherocks thanks David!
Really cool shot. Sharing with a bunch of my video people buddies to ogle over it too!
I didn't know Kevin and the Phantom Hand Lady were a couple, that's so cool!
Thank you 😉
Each of these videos are a sublime masterpiece, a therapeutic piece of art if you will. The highest perfection of the craft
Thanks for some great cocktails! I love an aviation cocktail, and have been meaning to learn clarifying. Love it!
Glad you enjoyed it and that you found this episode helpful. Thanks!
Thank you so much Kevin for the great content. this was definitely my kind of video. edible paint + clarification with throwing technique. Congrats on reaching the first milestone. I believe the sky is the limit for you and your great team. cheers
It's my pleasure Arian! Love to hear that you like the episode and thank you so much for your nice wishes!
I really like your take on these cocktails. I can't wait to try it this way! Thank you for making the wonderful videos!
I am so glad that you like it! Let me know how it turned out 🥃
Phenomenal. I love these videos. Ive gotten into mixology heavily these past few months. What a blessing that you can get all this free knowledge from the web dude. Kevin kos along with all the home bar youtubers have really taught me alot about this fine art.
So nice to hear that! The cocktail community on CZcams is amazing and we all can learn a lot from it. I am so glad that me and my team are part of it. Cheers
The slow-mo long pours are out of this world. I could watch that all day. You guys!
Haha, you should see how much effort Sašo put in filming this part and in what amount of pressure I was when throwing towards the camera 😂 I l love how this turned out!
Love this concept. Can't wait to try these. Great job team.
Thank you! Let me know how it went.
Artfully done! Really special stuff. Happy I came across this, deserves more views!
Much appreciated! Welcome to the channel!
The cocktails look delicious and the addition is amazing! Keep it going🍸
Thank you! Cheers 🍸
Finally got to see this one. Will have to try the lemon juice. I did the super juices yesterday.
I've been a huge fan of a painted garnish whenever I see them. Glad you included them in some recent videos, I think we'll be seeing it take off even more in the future.
I think the same. It can look interesting and with that, it gives the cocktail another note.
This is really nice, I like how it all came together.
Thank you so much! Cheers David 🥂
this is my 3rd indulgence onto your videos and I'm shocked that you only have 4.8K subs! With videos like these it wont be long before you are in the 100k region I'm sure. Keep up the amazing work :D
Wow, thank you! I am glad that you like them and 🤞 that we will reach 100k someday. Thanks for watching and supporting this channel. Cheers!
I've watched you since the 1st video my man, subscribed only recently (i know, stupid) and love what you do and share with my bar staff here in France!
Merci!
It's never too late Daniel. I am glad that you did and that you are sharing the knowledge with your bar staff. Cheers to all of you!
Wow love the look of the Beet Juice on the Mr. Really fantastic! Great Video!
And it's so easy to make it. Thank you so much!
thank you for wonderful info.
My pleasure!
Such a great tutorial and e plans toon about using agar - and making the beet paint.
Thank you, it makes me really happy to know you've found it useful! Cheers!
Kevin beet juice trick looks cool. I will love to try it!! Thanks
Great! Let me know how it turned out. You are welcome!
A clarified Aviation!?!? What a great idea, and looks fantastic!!
Thanks, Trevor! It's already a fascinating drink, but clarifying it just gives it a little extra magic!
I was pleasantly surprised by the Mr. cocktail.. as a noob in a cocktail world, I was expecting something totally different on the first sip. You rock Kevin!
Thank you, Sašo! You don't know how happy I am when you like my creations 😉 cheers brother 🥃
Beautiful!!
Found the channel yesterday and I am doing the obligatory comment for the CZcams algorithm because more people should be enjoying these videos.
Man this is so informative, the different kinds of clarification, throwing, and even that brush of beetroot paste! Love form Taiwan :)
Thank you! I am glad you like it. Sending you best regards from Slovenia!
The slow-mo on the throwing part... Great shots! Good job, yet again!! Cheers guys!🥃🍸
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you. World Bee Day is slowly coming, so you know what that means right? 😉 Cheers!
@@KevinKos i have an idea💡😉🐝🐝
The bloopers had me dead, your reactions were top tier. I’m crying with laughter hahaha
Awesome cocktails again. Agar agar needs to be purchased
It's so easy to use it! I will show some more clarification techniques shortly 😉 Thanks!
Great cocktail, it looks amazing!
Thank you! Cheers!
Today I decided to watch all your episodes on channel :D One better then other! Really thank you for your content and what you do. Hopefully you will have more views on your videos soon, because they definitively deserve it. Wish you all the best!
Awesome, thank you! Today comes another special treat for all cocktails enthusiasts. I hope that you will like it. Thank you for the support and all great wishes! Cheers!
@@KevinKos awesome will stay tuned!! Thanks once again Kevin! Great job
Found your channel 2 days ago, and I just can't stop watching. The quality is so incredibly high! How do you not have more followers?
Thanks, Oliver! I'm really glad you're enjoying the content. I think somebody said this is "a hidden gem of CZcams", but we'd love for it to be brought to the surface for all to see haha! Thanks for your support!
Love the creativity in all your drinks! You have a great balance of respecting the classics while pushing the boundaries of cocktails.
Glad you like them! You described it lovely! I have big respect for the classics so I always use them as my starting point of creating the signatures.
When I saw you catch that Lemon without looking, i knew there would be great bloopers!
your video quality and techniques are in a league of its own
Thank you so much! I am glad that you see it that way.
So unique! Bravo! 👏🏻
Thanks!
As soon as I saw Chivas regal I instant liked the video. Chivas has been a family staple when drinking whiskey. Always two oz when having "caldo de res" or "gallina". Top of the line.
WoW I am very exited to try this. I think the monkey 47 is by far the best gin i have in my home bar. Also I love the aviation cocktail it is one of my favorite drinks! Cant wait for V-day to make your recipe. And obviously ill be making pénicilline cocktail too.
So glad to hear that! Let me know how you like them and enjoy your Valentine's day! Cheers lovebirds!
Love the theme ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!
Hi Kevin, I’m so glad you guys made it into the partnership program, I have been here since the start and knew great things await this channel.
So congratulations!
On another note, you think you can do a video about clarifying cocktails using agar-agar for large batches?
Classics/interpretation cocktails in large batches - how to clarify, what changes, how to cook the cocktail with agar, how much water dilution in which mixing method, how much time does it last in the fridge, and how it works/how good it is vs milk clarification etc.
Thank you so much for being with us and supporting us from the beginning! This is a great idea Netanel! I will put it in our schedule for sure! Thank you!
Legit laughed out loud with your “mishandling” of the lemons and thanks once again for the inspiration! My bride-to-be is a fan of tequila cocktails specifically a Paloma and I think I’m going to try clarifying grapefruit juice to make a fresh juice variation! Also you make throwing look easy, I’ll have to practice away from carpets with water ;)
Haha, that part was fun to film 😀 I already did that once and it turned out amazing! One of the best Paloma I have ever had, so please try to do it by yourself and let me know how you like it. Practice makes perfect so fill your shakers with water, take out carpets and throw 😉 Thank you!
@@KevinKos Gotta say it worked a treat and fiancé was impressed which was all that mattered 😊 Thanks again for the inspiration!
Great suggestion!!
Congrats on monetization! First thing I noticed as I played this video. Ok, back to watching the whole thing.
Thank you! I hope that you like the episode as well.
I am so much into clarified cocktails! I will steal all of your knowledge sir haha Crazy good video sir 👍👌
It will be stolen with permission 😃 I am more than happy to give you everything I know. I am glad that you like it and let me know how you like the cocktails when you will try them.
Once again, a top-quality episode. Congratulations to you and your team for heating the partner program. I must borrow your team one day when I can afford it 😉
Thank you so much Georgi! Hmm we will see about the last one 😜 Cheers!
@@KevinKos Maybe I'll come and visit one day when we can travel again. I must go back to Bulgaria to see my family so I'll make a little detour 😂
Thanks Kevin & team behind the camera, another great episode! Need to invest in new ingredients and practice my "blending skills" so I don't throw it on the floor...
Don't worry, you will learn it. Thank you so much! We are all glad, that you like the episode.
That smooth cut/transition at 2:22 was something else. Hell, I might even be wrong about the time-stamp with how smooth it was.
I appreciate you've noticed that little detail! I must say that this transitions doesn't work everytime that smoothy, so I am really proud of this one.
@ I watched it another 3-4 times and I'm pretty sure I know how it works now (no actual digital editing), but it definitely threw me for a loop at first. Great job!
We actually filmed how we made it, so we will post it on the community. I am glad, that you noticed it!
oooo, a new technique!
There will be plenty of more 🙂 🥂
Oba koktajla top👌☺. Zelo lepa epizoda, res nekaj posebnega😊
Hvala! Me veseli, da sta ti všeč koktajla in epizoda!
Hi Kevin! Thanks for all your guide and recipe!
A question, can I clarify also the super juice with acids etc, or I need to use pure juice from fruits?
People ask for Penicillin at my bar all the time, but we don’t have honey ginger syrup. I can’t wait to suggest this variation next time! I’ll make sure to credit you :)
Awesome! Thank you!
The video starts and I see a bottle of Monkey 47. I instantly knew this will be another great episode. The beetroot garnish is totally astonishing. I am not sure now if you are more a bartender or a chemist. :@) Cheers Kevin!
Haha, when it comes to cocktails I act like a chemist, but still prefer to be a bartender. Thank you so much! Cheers!
@KevinKos : Great video my friend! Is it possible to clarify super juice with the agar agar ? I see on the video you clarify Fresh squized juice
💯
Great video Kevin, does this work with super juice? Thanks 🙏 keep up the good work 👊🏼
Yes it does!
Hi Kevin, I'm currently stumped. My bar is taking part in a cocktail competition and I wanted to create a tweak on your clarified basil smash cocktail and for the garnish I wanted to create a paint just like the one you made with beetroot but instead a green one, preferrably made with basil
Is it possible to create a green basil-tasting paint that would also stick to the glass and not melt instantly as you pour the cocktail into the glass?
Hope you see this soon as I have to be quite fast with testing different methods, I really hope you can help me with this, your content is super inspiring 🙏🏼
I love this channel. Very innovative, and the quality is top notch. From your appearance to the ambiance everything is pleasing. May I add, your looks remind me of Connor McGregor and I love it 😂
I hear that a lot lately 😂 Looks like I need to use Proper Twelve in one of the episodes to be more authentic 😁 cheers!
@@KevinKos yesss I’d definitely tune in for that one! 😄
Trying to clarify lime and lemon juice today.
Awesome!
hey kevin!
thanks for such a well broken down guide.
quick question: how much of the liquid do you lose through clarifying?
They both look fantastic, and I will have to try them. Though I would be a little disappointed if the MR was called a penicillin as I love teh spicy ginger byte, might try it with ginger liqueur as teh barspoon of sweetener balance to give a hint.
That would be a great addition, but I didn't add it, because it already has a ton of notes and it could cover the subtle earthy taste from the beetroot paint. I just replace the kick from ginger with herbal notes from Benedictine. Maybe I should call it different, maybe more suitable to the current events? 😀 I would be happy to hear your opinion of the cocktail with or without the addition of ginger. Thank you!
Thank you for such beautiful video!!
Instead of Agar can I use Pectin?
Thank you! Pectin wouldn't work the way you want it. So Agar Agar is the way to go.
Lotza science involved there 👁️👄👁️
Real interesting and inventive
Thank you!
hi, I have a question about clarifiying strawberry where u say add 1 part of water to mix with agar, u mean only heat up the agr with water not the juice or u mean to dilute quarter of strawberry juice with extra 1 part of water to mix with agar. Thanks so much.
Thanks for the super interesting video! I'm thinking about clarifying kiwi juice, but since it's thicker than lemon juice, I don't know if it will work. Maybe diluiting it with some water before using agar agar?
that will work. Diluting it a bit and then adding some more acids to bump back the acidity. Thank you!
How would this clarified lemon juice method compare to just making an oleo citrate solution for the same clarified presentation?
What’s your opinion on Supasawa? I’ve made clarified sours with it and it was good. It was missing the distinct characteristics of the citrus fruits but it was quick and easy
I heard and read about it, but I haven't tried it yet.
Hi, I tried to clarify lime juice following your method and both times I could not yield clear clarified juice. I even tried a 3rd time following other method of using 1/4 water instead of lime juice to hydrate the agar like you did and the result is still the same. I let the combined juice and agar set in ice bath and in fridge for 2 hours and filtered through 4 layers of cheesecloth. Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated!
Ok so how would we go about creating our own Supasawa with the 5 acids and water.. it’s not very available in the states and looks like an interesting ingredient.
can I use the agar agar to clarify whole cocktails? in place of a milk clarification?
Clarified punches os lemon juices last long on the fridge? If I make a clarified super juice it will work well too?
Where did you get that jigger and for what amounts is it marked?
Amazing videos i have seen them all !! Does the lemon juice after the clarification process remain more at the fridge? How long approximately?
Thank you so much for watching them all! It remains longer to my taste but still uses it in two days. You can pour the juice into smaller containers and freeze it since it's a long process of making it. Thank you can take it out before you need it. Cheers!
Hi, can i replace de pectin for agar agar to make de edible paint?
Can you make it in watermelon juice form? would be a great
thank you for your video😊. i wonder what type of pectin.
using jelly type or jam type??
I think they are the same. It's the one for making jells and jams.
@@KevinKos thank you , master👍🏻👍🏻
I tried to do the paste the same way you did, but it is more jelly than paste any suggestion?
Fascinating. What I heard is this is done for aesthetic reasons not to change lemon flavor. Use same quantity in a drink just like raw lemon juice? Can this be frozen to keep it longer or how long will it keep unfrozen in a fridge? Would be cool if you could freeze in a cube say 3/4 Oz or 1oz put the cubes in an airtight container and then pull out what you need. Would that be possible? Thanks for your masterful efforts!! Ok. You said it could be frozen. I’m gonna try and find cubes the right size.
The taste is the same as in freshly squeezed lemon juice if you don't use too much agar-agar. Yes, it can be frozen for later use. I like the idea of 3/4 oz cubes 👌
I need to get so agar now I'm excited to learn to clarify a new way. Would the clarified lemon juice make it last longer due to the lack of organic materials left in there?
It's really interesting when you get such a clear juice. It does last longer but not as much as we would like to. For the best results use it in two days but if not, freeze it and use it when you need it.
@@KevinKos freezing? Now thats interesting. Could make for fun uses
How much longer does the clarified lemon juice last relative to regular? I am hoping to pre-batch some drinks with the clarified lemon and need them to last about 3-4 days.
Dave Arnold (author of Liquid Intelligence) says that the clarification doesn't expand the life of the juice, but I just might don't fully agree with this one. To my experience, the clarified lemon juice stays good for up to two days, but if you will prebatch some cocktail it's good for even longer. With adding alcohol and sugar you are ok for 3-4 days. I would love to hear your results. Thank you and cheers!
This is a bit of a shot in the dark - does anyone know the brand name or style of the saucier at 3:23? My mom had one just like that, but it broke. I'm looking to replace it for her!
What's the shelf life for the clarified lemon juice?
Hey Kevin, quick question: does clarifying citrus juice affect its shelf life in any way?
It does. It expands it just slightly. Cheers!
Salud🍻
Na zdravje! 🥂
This looks like a great his an her style cocktail. You can never do too much for your significant other to let them know you care and want to get drunk with them.
Haha true! Thank you 🥂
How much loss can be expected when clarifying citrus juice with agar (agar)? Seems like the cheese cloth has a good bit of gunk left over but then your bottles looks like it has a solid 8-10 oz of liquid in it.
The loss is small. Make sure that the cheesecloth is moistened with water before you will start filtering and the only thing left in the filter will be some citrus pulps. I think that there is around 20-30% loss but I haven't measured before and after clarifying. I will have this in my mind with the next batch of clarified citrus juice. Cheers!
Kevin. I have a home made bom alcoholic gin extract (glicerina based) and its Golden and wonderful. For experimental purposes tho i would like to make It transparent. Do you believe this method would work?
I don't think so this is the right method. Didn't it settle on its own? Try to freeze it and then filter it through a coffee filter. Hard parts will then be easier to filter.
Hi Kevin, quick question, please.
I would like to know if 0.6g of agar should be added to clarify 300ml of "lime" juice? thanks .
yes
Rather than agar agar, could you clarify the lemon juice with milk?
You're a very charismatic guy.
On a separate note, you kind of remind of me of kungen with facial hair lol, I'd be surprised if anyone knew what I was talking about with that though. And I mean it only from a face point of view.
Haha, thanks! I don't know who Kunden is, but I guess that is a good thing if I remind you of him?
@@KevinKos It's a bit nerdy and esoteric but he's a Swedish guy who was the leader of the world's best world of warcraft guild back many years ago.
But that's just a mere curiosity, the main point is you're a well presented and charismatic individual so indeed it is a compliment!
@@od1401 thank you!
Can I substitute beetroot juice to others juices? And could I use the same measure? I try to make a orange paint I just wanna know if I could to use the same measure
You can of course substitute beetroot with other juices, but keep in mind that the juice has to be bright colored and aromatic so there will be enough of both aroma and color with a thin strip on the side of a glass.
Hey, Kevin, could you tell me the brand name of your blender?
It's a some Aldi blender with 900wats of power.
Hii there, quick question, can I substitute de pictine for Agar Agar? If so is the same amount to use? Thx in advance mate
I have never tried to do it with pectin. Pectinex (an enzyme that breaks down pectin) is after used but it's harder to achieve crystal clear product than with agar agar, especially with citrus juice.
Hi levin i want to ask you if i put more agar can i transform the juice into a gel
yes you can. Agar Agar is a gelling agent
Hello, good afternoon, Mr. Kos. How are you? Is it possible to clarify a whole cocktail with Agar-Agar? Cheers 🥂
I would say that it's possible but I haven't tried it yet since it's easier to clarify separate ingredients for the cocktail. Also, you will get a lower amount of that "metal" taste that comes from Agar if you will only clarify ingredients that aren't clear originally. I hope that helps a bit. Cheers!
@@KevinKos Thank you for the answer.
Can you do the same clarifying with Super Juice? Like Super Lime Juice? I want to do a clear Lime juice for a clear margarita!!
You sure can, I mention that in the Grapefruit Super Juice episode. Enjoy making it, it looks awesome!
Can you make an agar clarified super juice?
yes you can. You can use the same procedure as shown here.
Hi Kevin, does this work fine with your super juice too?
Yes it does!
Can you strain it with a coffee filter or does it have to specifically be a cheesecloth?
You can but it will take longer to strain. Cheers!
Hey buddy, quick question,
What's the shelf life of a clarified lemon juice (using agar agar)
Thanks a lot buddy,
Cheers!
Two days. Cheers!
Can you clarify lemon super juice using this method as well?
Yes, absolutely.
