Nice crossover, another one of my fav cocktail channels

Thank you so much for the HUGE shout out! It is such an honor to be featured on your channel! I'm always impressed when I realize how much the bartenders' community is like a brotherhood no matter where or who we are. That said, great video! I feel bad to see all the comments about you not smiling during the shake though LOL Also, I never thought of the reverse dry shake that way BTW and it makes sense. But if I may develop here, when you strain the cocktail after the "wet" shake, chards of ice will go through so when you dry shake after, you still add some cold in there. So now the question is, will you start to reverse dry shake or not? 😉

Love your videos Steve. I fancy myself a novice closet bartender, ur videos have helped me big time. I subscribe to a rule of thumb that applies to most cocktails, including most of the ones you demo....2 parts main booze to One part liquor or secondary booze as well as most mixers. Sours are always about 1 to 1 simple syrup to lemon or lime... those simple rules can help the novice figure out how to make almost any cocktail they see on a menu that lists the ingredients but not quantities. Keep up the great videos and the smile while shaking ( clearly your signature)!

Again, this looks amazing!

Scofflaw.... THE underrated cocktail with grenadine, too!!!

Gotta love quick, good, and easy! Cheers mate!

I actually mixed the recipe from Bruce and this one a while back and I works beautifully the hibiscus doesn’t really do much other than intensefy the color and I had some vodka and a tiny bit of citric acid for conservation thanks Steve!

@@StevetheBartender_ How about Cointreau as substitute for orange blossom water, also instead of vodka for longer shelf life?

Extracting pomegranate juice by hand is so labor intensive. I just get POM from Costco. I can get hibiscus juice from the Mexican grocery. I think they call it Jamaica (ha-mai-ka)

Do you feel the orange blossom changes the flavor drastically? I've never made Grenedine but I would like it to be similar to Luxardos 😁

I can’t wait for 300k subs so we get shooters vol. 3!!!!

how long will this be good for once made and stored in the fridge? I'm interested in doing so, but only make grenadine based drinks every so often.

Thinking about making this. Would Cointreau be in any way a good substitute for the orange blossom water?

@@stephane.foisy.186 yeah I allways add boiling water to my bottles, before I fill them. The vodka also helps, but I was assuming the week for a normal fruity syrup, which is possibly not completely correct, cause you add fruits in there to infuse and double strain them out, which leaves particles of them in there, which make it last way shorter.

I wonder if this would work with monk fruit sweetner instead of sugar? I was looking for this to put on my yoghurt rather than as a mixer.

I LOVE pomegranates, they're expensive here as well, won't be in season until our fall so another 6 months at least. I knew grenadine was made out of Poms, mist people don't know and most grenadine you buy in the stores are just red colored sugar water, it's terrible. My question, what's Pom syrup, I have a general idea but I've never heard of it. Where do you buy it or can you just make it?

@stephane.foisy.186

4 жыл бұрын

The molasses (syrup) used is a highly reduced pomegranate juice. If making it most recipes start with 4 cup juice and slowly simmer (not boil) until you get 1 cup of liquid left. Super concentrated flavour (less water). that is why this recipe is quicker where as, as Steve mentioned, the other recipe he saw requires more time to simmer down.

How about removing the seeds by hand? It’s somewhat tedious, but I don’t mind. I then put the seeds on a food processor as it juices the seeds without breaking them, which makes for easier straining and a clear result. Everything else I do is like in this recipe.
