How to make Cocktail Syrups: Simple, Ginger, Honey and Raspberry Vol. 1

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

This one has been a long time coming guys and I'm glad I finally got to it. This first volume is all of the basic syrups you'll need to make most of the drinks here on Barfly. Yes there is a second volume coming to cover more basic syrups and from now on I'll be doing some stuff on house made liqueurs as well. Hope you like the episode!
A Note on this episode: A lot of you will notice that I do almost everything in this video by weight, but not the honey syrup and here's why: Honey Syrup only has water added to it to thin it out enough to combine properly so for me, measuring out 3:1 by volume is fine. Many of you are going to not agree and I totally understand. There are many ways to make Honey syrup and I'm sure whatever method you use is awesome too. I have been using this honey syrup method for a decade and it works very well and has never failed me! I implore you to try it before you knock it!

    I like the use of the blender for the ginger syrup. I always grated the ginger and boiled it like a tea, then strained and add sugar. Makes a very “hot” ginger though probably more intense then what cocktail recipes normally call for.

  • @WesAkers
    @WesAkers4 жыл бұрын

    A thing I do to avoid washing a pot is to make the simple syrup directly in a mason jar. I just bring water to a boil in an electric kettle, and pour it and the sugar directly into a mason jar, slap the lid on, and give it a swirl. You can weigh it out on the scale as you pour, or the jar has graduated measurements to do it by volume.

    Great video! I'd love to point out that if you are willing to go a little further the leftover ginger is far from being useless, though it might depend on how much you like ginger. You can keep the pulp, dry it out and use it as a seasoning. For example, I'm a big fan of gin and tonic variations, one of my favorites is cucumber gin tonic with a little grind of pepper as a flavor enhancer, same way as the pepper you can grind a little ginger extract into a more citric gin tonic variation, maybe a margarita or a sour variation with ginger syrup and garnished with it since a lot of the flavor comes with the smell. You can experiment a lot with it, the ginger will re hydrate with the same drink and after all you already have the ginger so don't let it go to waste!

    I think a 1:3 ration for the honey syrup makes sense - I find that some honey doesn't even need water thinning to pour okay. But of course, one should be aware that different ratios are abound and if you use another one than the recipe intended you need to adjust for that so as not to get the right ration.

    I make an orange syrup that I love, it creates an intensely orangey twist on an old fashioned. You start by making orange oleo saccharum. Fully peel two navel oranges and one lemon, and put the peels in a sealable watertight container. I originally used just orange peels, but found that the results weren't as bright as I expected orange peels to be, so the added lemon is key. For each fruit you peeled, you want 2 oz. of granulated sugar, so in this case you want 6 oz., or 3/4 cup. Put the peels and the sugar into the container and shake to evenly distribute. The sugar will draw the oils out of the peels and combine to make oleo saccharum. Let sit for 8-24 hours, shaking and inverting occasionally. I recommend letting it macerate in the fridge, or else wild yeasts could cause it to taste funky, but make sure that it's really airtight, possible even double bagging, or the fridge could desiccate it. After letting it sit in the fridge for enough time, there should be an oily, sugary mixture at the bottom. It's ok if not all of the sugar is dissolved. Dump the whole thing into a saucepan. You should add an equal amount of water as your first batch of sugar, so 6 oz., but you should first pour it into the container where you made the oleo saccharum in order to pick up as much of the sugar and oil for use. Pour the water into the saucepan with the oleo, and add another 6 oz. of sugar, to bring it up to a 2:1 ratio. Heat just enough to dissolve, but don't bring to a boil. Let simmer for 3 minutes to get the most out of your peels. Scoop or strain out the peels; you can optionally dry these to make candied peels. Pour into a sanitized bottle and allow to cool. Keep refrigerated. Use in place of simple syrup in your cocktails of choice, especially an old fashioned with an expressed orange twist.

    Here is a little tip for the ginger syrup. Squeeze it in a seal able container and seal it. But it in the fridge for at least half an hour and then bottle it. You are going to see a sort of sediment at the bottom of you container. Be careful not to pour it in the bottle and rinse out fast because it can harden out. Otherwise it will end in your bottle and will be rather hard to clean out. It does improve the taste too.

    Thks & a simple question; My-wife is a health-nut & love tasty fruity-smoothies but hates anything to do with alcohols. She probably would like healthy cocktails & cocktail syrups too. ??Could you point me to super-healthy cocktails & cocktail syrups how-tos??

    Hey Leandro, do you have caps for your syrup bottles? I was wondering if you noticed any weird oxidation occurring on your syrups if they are left uncovered in the fridge and if that led to off flavors/shorter shelf life. Loved that you highlighted the Morgenthaler method for making ginger syrup! I'm definitely going to have to try that

    No I have caps for them. These are repurposed Fever tree ginger beer caps and I use the caps they come with but they looked better in the thumb without

    I'm very new to cocktails so I have two questions: 1. Why didn't you use vitamix to make all other syrups? For example, for simple syrup, you can put it on a minute or so like you are making soup with vitamix, so the water and sugar dissolves well as it will heat up. 2. Can't you make pretty much syrup out of any fruits by using the same method that you used for raspberry? You can also pretty much mix simple syrup with fruits on Vitamix or any blender and strain it later on?

    Last time I made raspberry syrup 1:1 it didn’t come out as raspberry forward as I would have liked! I put it all over the stove and brought it to a boil. I think I’ll try this one next time!

    So what’s the rapid method recipe for raspberry syrup using the immersion circulator? Can you put it in the description?

    Leandro, I made 2-1 simple a month ago and bottled in a clean bottle and refrigerated it. Is it normal for it to crystallize given the higher sugar content? Is there a way to prevent crystallization if so? Thanks and great video!

    Yes 2:1 will Crystallize, you can just heat it up to get rid of the sugar crystals

    is the shelve(fridge)life of the ginger/raspberry syrup also about 2 weeks like you mentioned in part 2 for the simple syrup?

    For the home bar do you recommend the 1:1 or the 2:1 simple syrup? Off to dig out my nut milk bag out of my standard Navy issue seabag.

    I personally prefer 1:1 simple syrup because it’s much easier to balance drinks with. It’s true that 2:1 will last six months as opposed to 1:1 that’ll last a month buuut simple syrup is super easy to make in any size batch and 2:1 tends to crystallize over time. Also you need to respec every drink when using 2:1 as 1:1 is really the standard
