    This is one of your best recent videos, Leandro. I have been a sub for close to 5 years and I love it when you show us your expertise, as you have the knowledge and experience to back your experiments and ideas up. The graphic of the saline solution was also great, there was no time wasted explaining to those who know and I think those who are new (and didn’t) got it right away. I hope you stay this course, because this video I think was appealing and actually valuable to really new and more settled-in home bartenders as well as new professionals!

    Great format for this video, more like this would be great. But I do think that the gin version isn't very adventurous. Give me one with a high proof rye, or a brandy, or an aged mezcal, or something similarly interesting that pushes the boundaries of the template. Gin is botanical, sure, but at the end of the day it's just another neutral white spirit that doesn't introduce too much to the template. But, love the concept. I think doing similar things for other classic drinks would be a great idea.

Got a bottle of Trois Rivières, Cuvée de l'océan, from Martinique. And have been re-watching all your rum videos. Do you know anything about this particular one?

    Your explanation of the role soda supposedly plays in a mojito seems to be missing the point. In practice, the only logical reason for adding soda water to a drink is to add effervescence. If it was simply a question of lengthening or diluting the drink, then regular water or ice would suffice. People can disagree whether a mojito should or shouldn't have soda water, but it's not debatable that the carbonation of soda is going to give a very different experience than melted ice.
