I love bringing prebatched cocktails to a park when hanging around with friends, it feels so much more delicate than drinking the casual beers... Always with a cooler bag and a big chunk of ice as portable fridge ;). Would love to get to know more prebatched cocktails!! :)

I did a batched Negroni to take to family Christmas last year. Pack that, a tray of the best ice cubes you can make and an orange or two and your are set to sit back and watch family drama unfold around you !

I want to have a 15 liter jug of gin for my little private bar!!!

Nicely done! In our home Negronis, I now split the Campari 50-50 with Aperol. As you said, it becomes a wee bit more approachable and our friends seem to enjoy it very much! Slainte!

I do this too sometimes. The 50-50 split of Campari and Aperol can be so lovely in a Negroni!! 🙂

"Gateway Negroni." Love it! This must be how cocktails get their names. 🥃❤

Absolutely fab!

Thank you more videos like this please big batch cocktails!❤❤❤❤

Love a batch or party bunch to make all guests happy 🤪 Thanks for sharing!

Now I know! Thank you!

perfect idea

At first I read that as "Beach Negroni". Now I'm starting to wonder a beach themed Negroni would be. Might just be a Jungle Bird.

Exactly! Or there are some fun fruity gins nowadays, in Australia there’s a Poor Toms Pina Colada Gin or 78 Degrees have a Sunshine State one 😋

Nice top you look so pretty

Like the ape, from Greg the Bunny(IFC) said" that's what i call a Party Favor" 😮

Nice. More like this or recipes.... Thanks

Great video!! So I guess you can do this with any drink (mostly boozy drinks), but just pre-mixing the booze, add any citrus or ice later? 🤔 Have to try.

Exactly, I hatch a lot of drinks like that - everything except the citrus, then all you have to do is add the juice and shake 😊

Try hanging a bent paperclip between the bottle and the funnel to break the seal.

Good trick. But I always though that funnels should have a kink all the way down, so that wouldn't be needed!

LMAO the jug says "Manly spirits"?? (But also, great video! Love the channel!)

Ah - I spot the Nordes Gin in the background - what do you make of it? It's REALLY heavy on the botanicals, so having to pick-and-choose which ones to use it in. Shines in a Negroni where a gin can sometimes get lost, but way too much for a Martini or even G&T to my tastes...

It was everywhere when I was just in Europe! I like it but you’re right, it definitely doesn’t fit into everything. I find it quite fruity with the Albariño base, and very herbal. At Bomba we serve it with elderflower tonic and sage which works well - would definitely work in a Tom Collins too!

What's the life on this if it's kept in the fridge?

It’s never lasted long enough for me to test this haha… but jokes aside it’s very stable, but does has the vermouth component so I would say any longer than a month you’d just want to check on it. In the fridge I think at least a couple of months though!

I get your point, we go through it quickly enough at the bar that I think it would be minimal but probably not practical storage for a home bar where it would sit in there for longer!

Love batching drinks but almost wish I could unsee that plastic thing, ugh. Thank you for the eye-opener; now I know 🤢

Hmm, sorry, but I would feel cheated being served a batch version. It's not about the drink, but the experience. I love negronis, but I can make them too. It's the prep and presentation that adds the magic!

I get your point but I think it does depend on the venue - smaller venues where the focus on the bar making to order makes sense, whereas in the restaurant it’s essentially a dispense bar so consistency and speed are paramount.

You can batch any cocktail that is all booze - I keep bottles of pre-mixed Cajun Martinis (in the freezer), Black Manhattans and Irish Old Fashioneds on hand. You can do any cocktail really, if you want to pre-mix the alcohol and add the rest when you make the individual drink. On the other hand, I have never "enjoyed" a Negroni. IMO, Campari ruins just about anything it touches in any meaningful quantity. Any more than 1/2 oz in a cocktail is to me borderline undrinkable.
