I Made A Ginger-less Penicillin (And It’s Amazing!)
Is it possible to make a ginger-less Penicillin? Inspired by a bottle of Chivas Mizunara, today I’ll be making a version of this classic by Sam Ross, using 3 different bee products, no ginger, and a float of Smokey Chartreuse. This is not the first Japan themed cocktail on the channel - with the first one being a Martini to commemorate Spring and Hanami - but today we’ll also celebrate the crucial role that bees play in our environment, starting with a Beeswax-washed Whisky. We’ll then use honey & pollen for a delicious Ginger-esque Cordial to get that kick, without any of the ginger! If you are a fan of food pairing and experiments, this episode is for you. So pull up a chair and get comfortable - it’s Cocktail Time!

One of my regular bars in London used to serve a Rye Hot Chilli Pepper, which was essentially a variation on a Penicillin using a chilli-infused rye whiskey as the base. One of the better drinks I've ever had.

Awesome Kevin! Hard to not love a penicillin I had a question for you about the cordial, have you tried soaking the peels in the citric acid before making the cordial, similar to how you do for super juice? Just curious if you think that would be worth it Thanks!

Would you recommend an alternative to a sou vide when infusing?
@KevinKos

You can heat the wax and infuse it into the liquid. You might get a bit less of taste as if you would use sous vide, but it's still an option.
something with cynar + grapefruit?

Can the sous vide method used for the wax wash be used for a standard fat wash as well? The last wash I did on some rum I did based on HTD's method and I think it didn't do right as the rum soured some months later.
@KevinKos
Жыл бұрын
I don't know how HTD di it, but it could also be done in a standard method. A bit harder in the case of beeswax because it becomes solid quickly, but still doable.

@@KevinKos Allow me to rephrase that then. HTD did a brown butter that he poured straight to the rum. Not necessarily a better or worse method, I might state, but one I found difficult to do right. My curiosity was, can the sous vide method be used with other fats, such as butter or other oils?

@@SwampViking122 Oh, I see. Thank you! Yes, sous vide can be used with other fats too.
Funny enough I made a honey 🍯 forward cocktail to pair with a Elder Scrolls: Skyrim meal I made from the official cookbook. I call it the Horn of Talos 4 Oz Nord or Honningbrew mead (these are the quick meads from the cookbook. A good commercial alternative is Dansk Mjord Ginger and Honey mead or standard mead, or Viking Alchemist standard) 2 Oz Honey Vodka 1 Oz Honey and Quince syrup 1 1/2 Oz Hibiscus tea Shake over ice and serve, preferably in a Drinking Horn.

This looks absolutely fantastic. I’m a huge fan of scotch in general, and have been thinking about dabbling with some scotch-inspired cocktails! I’m really intrigued by fat-washing, and would like to try it out. I’m guessing it’s more for mouth-feel, than taste? Anyhow, keep up with your work Mr. Kos. Love your content!🥃
