Out of all these I think I'd pick the penicillin. I absolutely love Whisky Sour and this is pretty much my favourite variation. I usually go for 45ml blended scotch and 15ml peated scotch because I love the smokeyness mixed with the spice from the ginger

The Negroni and Penicillin are my most frequently made out of these 15.

That is the perfect Martini for me. Finally someone who recommends lemon over olives and a reasonable but not overpowering amount of vermouth.

Christ the Penicillin takes me back to my bartending days.. Not making it mind, more ordering them after service at some dodgy Manchester dive bars that always ended up with a lock in. All good fun though! Me and the Mrs have nearly made it through your amazing cocktail field guide which has been an absolute game changer in lockdown Keep it up !

I don’t know if you’re gonna do subscriber cocktails again but here’s one of mine that I’m super proud of Corn ‘n Soil 1.5 oz / 50 ml bourbon .75 oz / 25 ml blackstrap rum .75 oz / 25 ml falernum .5 oz / 15 ml lime .25 oz / 7.5 ml simple .25 oz / 7.5 ml fernet branca 4 dashes angostura Shake & serve over crushed ice & garnish with a mint sprig, lime wheel & freshly grated nutmeg

What a great series of videos! I like that you've sorted this by difficulty. Most other instructional videos never say anything on how you can go wrong, and honestly look easy enough on video. I've definitely messed up some drinks in the past! Great that you have tasting notes as well on your sister channel =)

I find it a bit easier to make a combined ginger-honey syrup by grading some ginger into a heat proof container, squeezing in some honey and stirring it with hot water off the kettle until it has the right consistency. Then I let it steep for a bit before I strain out the ginger pulp (making sure to squeeze out as much as I can). It's fairly quick and easy to make and even goes really well with tea

Penicillin is amazing 🥃

I have had the penicillin and the corpse reviver no 2. Loved them both. My favorite is the penicillin.

last shot is me when a customer asks for a gin basil smash after the basil on the rail has run out and i ponder wether i go look in the kitchen for another bush of basil or just tell everyone else we're out of basil for the night and try to make them drink gin and tonic instead. and i will go and look anyway, can't leave em hanging after all. and gin basils are fun to make. they always come in pairs and with entourage though.

Can’t wait for September and October, which to me is Martini Month and Vodka Martini Month, respectively.

I prefer Cocchi Americano in my Corpse Revivers no 2. Slightly more depth to the flavor

Here is a subscriber cocktail: Called the “Exquisite” - 50ml Grey Goose vodka - 20ml Cocci Americano - 10ml Camomile tea syrup - 10ml lemon juice - half a strawberry dropped into the shaker (not muddled) Method: add ice and roll between the shakers for a few times, then double strain into absinthe rinsed cognac glass Garnish with orange twist

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love ya'll!!!

Crysantemum will try

Got to be the Negroni as all time favourite but I'm partial to a daiquiri/Mai tai even in a dry martini (gin if course) Would love to see cocktails based if 1 ingredient or technique (ones are aren't that well known e.g. Dragon fruit/Fat washing)

With the blended scotch in the Penicillin, you reckon a *decent* scotch would be AT LEAST to be used here...I mean, I have some Claymore blended but I am sincerely afraid to use it for I fear that it would ruin the drink. Monkey Shoulder? Or...?

How do people know that Kina Lillet is more like coche americano and not lillet blanc? Seeing how the kina lillet can no longer be purchased. While lillet blanc is made by the same company that made kina lillet and they state its a modern day version of kina lillet. lillet blanc still has quinine in it, just a slightly reduced amount.
