  • The Cosmo is much maligned but made well it is zingy and fresh, and you can drink far too many of them. Plus, who doesn't love a pink drink and a flamed orange zest?!
    45ml (1 1/2 oz) vodka
    20ml (2/3 oz) orange liqueur
    20ml (2/3oz) fresh lime juice
    10 - 15ml (1/3 - 1/2 oz) cranberry juice
    1 dash orange bitters (optional)
    If you like it a little sweeter, add 5 - 10ml (1/6 to 1/3 oz) sugar syrup

    When I was in bartending school (20 years ago,) THIS was the most important drink to learn. The most popular drink in the U.S. at the time, and we learned the worse version.
    C.C.C.S. Citron, Cointreau, cranberry, and sour mix.

    • @BehindtheBar
      @BehindtheBar  Před 2 měsíci +2

      There was a time and a place! Tbf Cointreau makes a great version though so I’m sure your specs aren’t too far off if you just ditch the sour mix 😊

    Honestly, I think it’s as you said, a stigma thing surrounding a show and a color and cheap ingredients that turns most people and bartenders away from this drink. And as is usually the case with stigmas, unadulterated ignorance is not far behind! Because I have had Cosmopolitans made exactly like yours (albeit with a touch more cranberry and no orange bitters) with fresh, high quality ingredients that were delicious and, in my view, right on the pedestal with any other finely made cocktail one could think of. I think of this from a food perspective as I consider myself to be a bit of an amateur chef at home (I try my best😂) and a food critic as well. It all comes down to ingredients and then, provided your recipe is not completely foolish, it’s guaranteed to be great if the ingredients are great.

    Aaah, the good ol' days. Thanks for this walk down memory lane-- but way to fit it into today's flavor sensibilities!
    Request: as Chartreuse is getting harder and harder to find, could you show us some variations on typically chartreuse-centered cocktails?

  • @ItsMe-fs4df

    Love seeing old school drinks that "serious bartenders" turn their nose up at, get adapted instead of ignored 😁
    Feel you on that fake citrus note too, so easy to focus in on it, like coriander 😅

    • @BehindtheBar
      @BehindtheBar  Před 2 měsíci +2

      That’s totally how I feel about it, I blame judging the limoncello category at the Australian distilled spirits awards haha, I could always taste it but now I can’t stand it!
