      As every university student: credits, lots of credits, without having to do exams :')
      (also, since it won't be possible for me to drink for a while, some alcohol free recipes ;) ;) )

    The idea of an hour consultancy with you is so geeky cool I can't stand it! But I'd be too intimidated. I don't have a strong enough cocktail game to spend an hour asking you questions. I'd be saying stuff like 'rum is really good, right?' 🤣🤣

    The positivity coming out of this and every video you post is incredible. As a bartender, you inspire me and I just found out one of my co-workers loves your content too! We were talking about eggnog and he said he was making a tropical version this year and I said, are you going to bring it to the grinch and he immediately understood and smiled.
    Thanks for everything you do as a creator and for the cocktail community around the world!

    I've got a quick question: I assume you're based in Slovenia, right? If I am correct, how do you got access to Liber and Co. products? I am Italy based and never find them, neither online nor in physical shops. Any suggestions? Thanks and cheers from Italy!

    • @KevinKos
      @KevinKos  Před rokem +1

      I bought one in a store nearby. Mine is a bit different because it runs on a power made by a dynamo, but any other works as great too.

  • @mattia_carciola
    @mattia_carciola Před rokem

    One day I think I'll make that cola. Not soon, but I'm curious. What do you think is the shelf life of the syrup and already bottled?

    • @KevinKos
      @KevinKos  Před rokem +1

      If the syrup is stored correctly, it should be good for a month at least. This is because it has acids in it. Already bottled should be ok for two weeks at least, although it has to be good for even longer.

      @@KevinKos Thanks! Not an avid soda drinker, I'll have to engineer some way to get it stable enough to be worth making (some ingredients would be hardly used for something else).

    How long would the bitters take if you were to do it the old fashioned way?

    • @KevinKos
      @KevinKos  Před rokem +2

      So the traditional way takes about 2 weeks, you can see how I made orange bitters here: czcams.com/video/RtFBIwUTYEY/video.html
      There's also the middle ground, making them in a sous vide, which I did for the allspice bitters: czcams.com/video/vO06u6hvlHs/video.html
