what imaginary fantasy land do you live in. you must never do dishes or know any alcoholics because you lost me at you need a this. I have tried this numerous times and it turns into a nightmare. You shouldn't be giving anyone alcohol at your home; it brings out the worse in people. I cannot understand why anyone would peel a fruit or shake a drink. If you want fruit in your drink cut it in quarters. Hell, I don't even put ice cubes in drinks anymore because the ice is always gone and it's just not necessary. This is complete and utter trash of a video.
I personally prefer a martini with gin and sweet vermouth.
uhhh i dont do taxes and i dont know how to make pasta... but i can pour you happiness
I built my bar and stepped up my game over the past year since we couldn't leave the house. Your channel was one of my main sources of info on how to make several types of drinks, and I even ended up creating a drink menu for when guests come over. Thanks for all the great content!
Seconding this. That's what happened to me word for word. Cheers to both of you :D
Co-sign. Got deeply into making and shaking cocktails through Leandro and Greg at How To Drink. A whole new appreciation for the world of cocktails, and it’s been enormously fun and educational.
@@mamikgibar and expensive haha
😉😍
@@Spacecadet0730 You ain't wrong! I just dropped $100 at Fee Brothers Bitters in Rochester, NY.
oh man, i really thought he was gonna say "and this is my masterclass"
Haha...he totally should've! Now that it's out there, maybe he will next time! 😂
The lighting has to be hella dimmed lol
We need to keep helping others learn to make drinks properly and be better hosts. Nothing ruins the vibe of an adult house party quicker than when all they have to serve is vodka sodas in a Solo cup. This Bar Essentials series is a great way to introduce folks to building a proper home bar. More please!
Truer words have never been spoken!
"Nothing ruins the vibe of an adult house party quicker than when all they have to serve is vodka sodas in a Solo cup. " ever wonder why you dont get invited?
@@WoWUndad Right?
Like "I'm here hanging out with all these friends I love and care about, listening to the music we all like, with that movie we all geek out about on the screen in the living room, swapping stories and making plans, but if the drinks aren't professional and served in specific glassware what even is the point?"
Learning how to make these classic drinks is a fun addition that a lot of people enjoy, but if you're invited into someone's home and you show up with a List of Expectations you're guaranteeing yourself a crappy night.
This video is great for those who want to go the extra mile, but damn, dude, your friends shouldn't be expected to Serve you. They're not getting paid. Learn to be grateful for what's being offered.
I know this was a couple years ago, but I hope this isn't truly your mindset. Sure I love a good cocktail but I'm not expecting one at a friend's party, unless maybe that friend is a bartender. I don't care what I'm drinking or whether or not it has alchohol in it, if I'm partying with the right people, that's what makes all the difference. Although I will draw the line at cheap, generic booze. That's just for my health though. 😅 Food & drinks definitely make a party more fun, but not everyone who wants to throw a party also wants to be a bartender. That's not what really makes them a good host. What makes a good host is charisma mostly. Don't be a snob. If you want a craft cocktail, go to a nice bar.
Awesome video!!! As a home bartender/mixologist, I love these type of videos!!! It's like a refresher course to prepare me for a quiz, or a HUGE party!!! THANKS!!!!!
I've loved seeing the evolution of this channel. The constant increase of quality over time has made the overall experience fantastic and it's nice to see the channel continue to grow from what started off as what appeared to be a side personal project into the professional content we see today! Love it! Thanks and keep up the good work!
Thanks for the amazing comment and more amazing support! Means the world to us!
Oh wow. I have a home bar and I didn't know how much I really needed this video
Nicely done!!! I love the change to the mojito simple, but a great way to taste the full strength of the ingredients.
Nice video as usual. It's good you go back to the basics like this occasionally. Sometimes even us home bartenders with experience need some reminding of everything.....
Just want to let you know how much I appreciate your sharing knowledge of home bar. I just received my first Boston shaker recently, it is helpful that you show me the skills how to lock and unlock the shaker in the video.
This is a fantastic introduction to cocktails that I will likely be sharing with friends. Your explanations are sweet, to the point, and infinitely easier than reading through cocktails books (which can be daunting).
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
I recently started to get into the world of drink making. This video was super helpful. Thank you
Thumbs up for Ron del Barrilito hanging out in the background, AND for using Topo Chico for the Paloma.
Made Palomas yesterday. Had I saw this redux version of your recipe, I wouldn't went for that instead of the grapefruit soda. You've really upped the presentation & simplicity from your older recipe. Cheers!
You are an amazing teacher! I thoroughly enjoyed this video and appreciated the extra info on your barware essentials. Subscribing for sure! We entertain a lot, and our friends always compliment me on my cocktails -- you've just given me some more skills and I look forward to watching more content from you!
Thank you so much for the simplicity of how to make these drinks. I will try to make all of them and enjoy them 😘
I'm so glad moscow mule is the first one! It's literally my favorite drink and I make it all the time. Love mine pretty lime and mint forward
Not that I've seen a load of cocktail videos, but the appeal, the specificity, the aesthetics and clarity of this one is just brilliant! Thanks, man!
Thank you! That’s a great compliment!
Definitely one of your best shows! Thanks for the awesome content.
And that was my mixology 101 class 😝💃😍. Loved how to make martinis ❤. Thank you!
The way I’ve seen a traditional Mojito made, is they add a ton of mint to a ton of sugar, then they stir them with a spoon gently for a while without muddling, and the sugar will start to extract the moisture from the mint leaves. You get this thick grainy mint flavored sugar syrup.
Great video (as always). I learned to love the campary aswell but I got to the realisation, that it's not the best cocktail for partys if the people are not on this level yet aswell.
For me what always worked best where classic sours like a daquiri or whiskey sour.
I was looking for a beginners guide to the equipment and you gave it to me without even mentioning it in the title! Great!!
The montage was awesome! You guys are always fun and informative!
Fantastic video and always good to revisit the classics!
Great video all favorites 👏🏽 Perfect playlist of cocktails 🍸🍹.
I did a Cocktail week now where i tried most of these Cocktails + 2 Jägermeister ones from your Jägermeister Cocktail Video and i have to say that they all were amazing so far. Thank you so much for showing your technique and going into detail.
Thank you for clearly showing bottle labels and saying the names with good diction. I didn't struggle to find a single drink.
Thesis statement is on point, along with the concice explanations. Thanks for this
Going to have to try that mojito now. I always used soda water and found mine to be a little underwhelming. This looks like a great idea. Also great video and a nice primer for those who are starting a home bar.
Hi
Saw you used Fever Tree Ginger Beer for the Mule, Fever Tree also makes a high quality Grapefruit that I use for Palomas in a pinch! Both are available usually at Costco!
I've tried this Mojito and it was the best one i've ever tasted. Thank you!
Great video. I never seen the orange used for the martini before. I’m definitely going to try it.
I always keep up with ur videos. Im from Perú and I just got into the amazing world of bartending, mixed with my culture and national products. Almost all my basics and the information/history of cocktails and spirits i got it from u. U are a big inspiration because of the fascination and love u show for what u do. Much love from Perú and keep the amazing work!!! pd: loved the Pisco Punch video.
This is an absolute perfect video. Thank you!!
I have learned so much from this video, definitely going to be following your content as I aspire to be a bartender!
I just made your mojito for the first time (rather than a more normal version) and WOW, that's AMAZING ! I think this is my new way to make it
This was one of the first cocktail video i saw with a Negroni on it. I had my first one a couple weeks ago from a speakeasy in Knoxville Tennessee and i have to say it was delicious!
Nice job Leandro, one of my favorite videos of yours yet.
Nice video Leandro ! Your show is really pleasant to see because it continues to evolve and you evolve too with it !The new "jingle presentation" is perfect, and the little changes tends to be a professional video. Keep going like that, it's always good to see you take some pleasure with your (and our) passion!
Thank you!
I love your videos. I just subscribed. Just a quick note. I’ve noticed that for Paloma’s. Instead of using club/carbonated water. Use Fresca/Squirt it gives it a sweeter flavor. And is not as harsh. That’s the way that I’ve served/drank it in multiple bars in Mexico and has always been a favorite. Great job either way. Your recipes are good for amateur to professional and aspiring bartenders. Bravo Zulu for you.
This channel has elevated to a new level of clean, fun & informative. I’ve seen you do most of these but I loved seeing it again in such a concise sexy way. Fuck yeah.
Hope some big blog shares this video. Probably the cleanest and most comprehensive intro to cocktails I've seen. Well done!
Don Q and Plantation both make nice Mojitos.
One can substitute rye whiskey for gin in a Negroni and the drink you get is the Boulevardier. Definitely can recommend.
whoah thanks for these suggest, been trying new things too like the alcohol mist cocktail😍
I can only hope my relationship with the Negroni improves to that second stage...my bottle of campari has remained unused since I made my first one 😄 The Graham Stephen shoutout is a nice touch too 👌
Campari is tough. When I first started bartending I hated the stuff, but wanted to like it. 4 years on I now enjoy it but I’ve found only in drinks that are less heavy on the Campari. Try a jungle bird, that was my first introduction. A drink I made myself featuring Campari that is also light but you can definitely taste it is essentially 4 parts Tequila (preferably reposado) 2 parts fresh lime, 2 parts Campari, a BSP of agave syrup and topped with around 100ML indian tonic water in a highball over ice.
Great vid👍🏼. Loving the set!
I have been eying that citrus press! I need an upgrade.
All in all this is a great starting point for the home bartender - though I try to reuse old bottles and jars for less waste
Love the new intro and great presentation as per usual, although I did find the lack of at least one forgotten item disturbing. 😂
Really enjoy your videos! Would like to see you do a video on your favorite drink orders when out at a restaurant (not a bar) that doesn’t necessarily specialize in cocktails.
Oh that’s a great idea!
Just came across this video and it definitely made me a better adult at parties! Also loving the Nick Miller vibes of the Bartender!
Haha I’m glad someone else saw the Nick Miller here
You really helped me jump right into bartending from serving! Thank you for your videos!!
Thanks!!!!! 🙌🏼
Very profy presentation ! this is amazing! thank you.
Thanks for educating me!
I’m 22 and just started working at a bar, I have no idea what I’m doing. Your videos are so well edited and educational. thank you very much.
Thanks!
I'm 33 and just started bar training at my job. These videos have definitely been helping me understand "why?" for the ingredients and garnishes. Though his recipes are different from how my job does them, it's still good similar ideas.
Wow. That was a fantastic bartending 101, Prof. DeMonriva. Need this series to continue long.
However, also hope to see our scruffy, jolly friend Leandro soon.
😂
I had to acquire the taste for Campari. It was gradual. I started with drinking Aperol spritzs, then moved on to Campari and now I love Negronis and I have all the types of Amaros.
Thanks for the detailed explanation.
I don't know what to say! So many emotions! I have been here since day 2 or 3. I have seen you evolve. I am not sure if I miss the banter and "like friends chatting" or the new evolution and show like appearance?! I just know I am proud of you and the crew and how you are a really good teacher. I learned so much today and from the beginning to now. My home bar has evolved and I approach bartending at home like I do my home cooking! Tasty goodness.
Thank you! You’ve been such a big support from the very beginning!
Just made a purchase of those Crew Bottles, thanks for the recommendation.
loved the explanation and the drinks!
I feel like when I build an old fashioned with a sugar cube, I am making it with extra love. Those less fortunate get simple syrup. The mojito recipe is one of the best around.
Also, this is an uncluttered Old Fashioned as he didn't add the Orange slice +/ cherry and mush them into a pulp.
I don't know why so many people don't like the sugar cube; I think it gives the drink character!
Great video, Leandro! I'm going to ask for some of those bottles for my birthday!
I got a job in a bar and it’s closed due to the area it’s in so it opens 2 to 3 nites per week with live music . This is what Im going to present to my boss with other ideas before the gig starts and they have eaten at the restaurant. So I am collecting the empty bottles of alc I need and fill them with water and buy my mixers and learn these ones first. I want to get promoted and make life easier for my manager and better for me.
Thank you.
man I'm glad I found this channel. thanks guys!!
Great looking drinks. Although I’ve never heard anyone say they enjoy their old fashioned grainy with un dissolved sugar. Sometimes I like to replace the sugar with a really quality maple syrup. Not quite as classy but delicious!
I ordered some crew bottles, now just have to figure out what to do with them. Thanks for the (paid) recommendation!
Great recipe to make at home! Chopin is a good quality vodka from Poland.
Just bought a set on saturday and tried your recipe for mojitos.
I've been thinking about buying those bottles for a long time now and this video finally pushed me over th edge
they're great. Use the link if you can :)
The best teacher for bartender
Excellent as always
Just finished a bartenders course and I have an interview today so I’m studying before I go in just in case ❤
yay first time seeing chopin on the show!! their potato vodka is my favorite vodka ive ever tried, i think thats the rye one though but their other stuff is supposed to be good too
Love ur channel, learn so much from u.
That mojito looks fabulous
Your story of the Negroni is very relatable. I now order it when I’m at business dinners because I have to drink it slowly - great way to keep your wits while the other person gets lit. Closed a lot of deals that way.
That’s the old fashioned for me. Sure you can throw it back but that slow sip is key for important meetings
This is the definitive video I send people that are getting into cocktails and ask me where to start. This is perfect.
Thanks!
Also, thanks for the intermediate recipe cards.
Very nice. Solid basics is never bad.....Ever.
I see that Barrilito 3 estrellas back there. Yesir! Cheers from 🇵🇷
thank you so much
The Negroni is one of my all time favorite cocktails. Second only to a Manhattan.
I use the jar of a coffee plunger as a mixing glass, and modified the plunger to be a pseudo julep strainer. Works great.
Like a french press?
This great. Really well presented.
Yep, I've just subscribed. Clear & succinct, I like it!
Damn, what a chill dude! thanks a lot for this great educational video! Really gotta try that Mojito without soda water.
This guy deserves a MASTERCLASS~
New look Leandro? You are killing it with that style 🥃
Those bottles look really handy! Very smart idea
They're great!
Lovely all drinks are fantastic
That was great!
I'm glad to say that I've not only made all these, but also made variations on most of them. For the Mojito I like using New Groove Plantation (not to be confused with Plantion brand rums). It also should in theory be closer to the "El Draque" I think that's what the predecessor for the Mojito was called. I think that used Aguardiente instead of rum and I think new groove has some extra common ingredients with Aguardiente. IDK I'm kinda going off the top of my head so I'm not 100% on the link. I have a garden so making one with various types of mint straight from the garden, just gives it such depth!
Back when the mojito was created, aguardiente was used instead of rum. However, aguardiente is basically rum prior to being distilled. It was a hard liquor. The "aguardiente" that you see now a days, is a completely different spirit and has nothing to do with this
The first time I ever had a Negroni I loved it. It is definitely my favorite drink. I would have the stuff to make it now if I had the money.
I know unless you make a cut off somewhere, but I really think the daiquiri is a must. I myself like drinking straight barrel strength spirits. But I can’t deny Leandro’s definitive daiquiri video wasn’t a turning point in my life. A perfect cocktail
Agreed
Got to love the classics that's why they survive the test of time. Palomas are so good
I did not realize how good until I made one at home....(gasp!).
Thanks for sharing your video take care 😇
Thanks!
What Ice Maker do you have in the back? NEED. Love the channel; thanks for all the content
Great, great video guys! Having followed this channel for a while now I can confirm these are now all "go to" drinks for me, although for some reason the Paloma passed me by. I'll be rectifying this error at the weekend 😉
One thing. If you don´t like the campari in the negroni you can substitute it with aperol wich is less harsh/bitter. they´re both orange based so the overall taste won´t change that much.
