I'm a newbie in that cocktail theme and trying to do my first cocktails. The Clover Club is absolutely brilliant and one of my favorite so far. Thank you for a whole new world.
Gin being my favorite spirit, and my interest in cocktails having spiked higher than covid cases, I was excited to see this video in my feed. I've mostly been sipping Corpse Reviver no. 2's so I was glad to branch out. i tried the Bees Knees first and disaster struck as I spilled my shaker all over the floor. About a shot was spared and it was quite tasty. i just made a Gordon's Breakfast and it was fantastic. I had a little speedbump as my wife had turned all of our cucumbers into quick-pickles but seeing as the drink had significant acidity I decided to forge ahead and they worked perfectly. I used Hendrick's to accentuate the cucumber. The only thing I can complain about is not having enough, should have made a double. Clover Club is next and probably an Old Pepper from the whiskey video.
Steven Johnson I tried it for the first time at Anvil Bar & Refuge and it was an instant favorite! I also like to have it served up with a splash of champagne instead of soda water.
The Gordon's Breakfast is one of my favourite summer cocktails. I usually just opt for lime juice instead of chunks of lime, though, and I kick the worcestershire and hot sauce up a little bit.
I'm with you on gin: also my favorite cocktail spirit. Gimlet is my go-to party cocktail. Just so easy to mix, everyone gets impressed, and it tastes great (especially after one or two too many and people can't tell it's not overly complex). And the French 75 is my go-to celebratory cocktail. Great drink, somewhat underrated these days I find. Never tried the Gordon's Breakfast though. Might have to go get some hot sauce...
Brilliant! Thank you for these straightforward and classic gin cocktails. I have been adding simple cocktails to my at home bar for dinner parties and cocktail parties. These are all wonderful additions. Cheers!
Some interesting cocktails I was unaware of except the gin gimlet is basically my of my go to drinks for when I get home from work in the evenings. However as a beekeeper the Bee's Knee's is definitely going on my list of gin cocktails.
My favorite mod to The Bees Knees is using white rum instead of honey. Or a slightly smoky blended scotch. Lemon and honey syrup is a base for lots of awesome.
Instead of chickpea (garbanzo) brine or egg white, you can also find (or make) something called gomme syrup. It is a simple syrup thickened with gum arabic that can also create a nice foam on top. Like the egg white, it also ads a silky texture to the drink whereas the bean juice only serves to improve the aesthetics.
Gomme syrup makes relatively low amounts of foam vs. egg white though, and unlike egg white and aquafaba it can only be used to substitute for simple syrup and only up to the amount in the original recipe, otherwise you mess up the flavor balance. A potentially better option if you want to avoid egg or aquafaba is a "foamer" like Fee's or "Ms Betters Bitters Miraculous Foamer". But if you do want gomme syrup local company Small Hands Foods makes a good one that is carried at K&L and Total Wine, or Liber & Co at Bitters and Bottles (who deliver).
I’ve been looking at Gin cocktail recipes on TH-cam this week and was surprised you didn’t have a big video. Low and behold you have answered my unasked question. Just in time for my company’s virtual happy hour tonight.
Love the recipes! Just found your channel and i'm loving the dedication to preparing cocktails. My favourite "easy" cocktail for gin is a fruity flavour with about 2/5 of gin 3/5 of mixers. Example of a about 10oz (3dcl) drink: - Aviation Gin - 4 oz (dry gins work best from my experience) - Schweppes BL flavor - 4 oz (any bitter lemon tonic or bubbly drink could work) - Fruc orange & lemon flavour - 2 oz (you can use any soft drink with fruity flavour, experiment your preference!) - Chop up 1-2 fresh ripe peaches into little cubes and add them to the mix - Add ice by preference and gentle stir Note that this does become a very fruity and refreshing drink with hints of gin.
This compilation of easy-to-make gin cocktails is particularly welcome during these COVID-19 quarantine days. Would love to see additional episodes for whiskey and rum.
I had Bees Knees for the first time a couple of days ago in Brighton, MA. It was a random pick and so delicious! The first taste reminded me of my favorite, the Aviation. This Bees Knees was served with a hibiscus flower which I didn't realize was edible. I ordered 2 more Bees Knees and made sure to eat the hibiscus 😋😄
Glad to see someone else who makes a gimlet with fresh lime juice. None of the bartenders books or recipes I see on the internet use fresh lime juice. Try floating a *super thin* slice or two of cucumber on it for garnish.
Please make this a series!! I always want to make the cocktails but I dont even know where to look for essence of lavender butterfly wing bitters and the other crazy stuff they call for
Please do more of these!!! My favorite kind of content, even when all the cocktail channels I follow are doing them. You should also include some drinks to use up that bottle of campari or vermouth you bought for a specific cocktail, and now need to use up before it goes bad. Same for random syrups, or a list of the simplest tiki drinks! I'm a lazy mixologist, okay?
I like how you didn’t just say “add syrup” and actually explained how to make it and how long it lasts. I never knew it was so simple and it’s one of the ingredients that puts me off
Five solid gin sours. Great video. I prefer the French 75 prepared more like a Tom Collins, over cracked ice in a Collins glass rather than in a flute.
I had just poured myself a gimlet before switching on this video. I made a stock sugar syrup from water, granulated sugar and a little acacia honey, to which I added the grated zest and juice of a lime. I brought this to the boil, simmered it for five minutes then strained it into a jug to let it cool. Once it was cool I placed the jug into the freezer for a couple of hours until it turned into an icy slush. I then poured the lime slush into a measure of Tanqueray 43% gin from the bottle I keep in the freezer. It is utterly sumptuous.
On the French 75 (Soixante Quinze) -- The gun had been somewhat derided as being not really powerful and of short range. However, it's breechblock and recoil design and fixed ammo gave it a high rate of fire -- about 15 rounds per minute; also its carriage design made it easy to transport and deploy near the front lines... and it was produced in large numbers. And so the drink.
01:05 The way you walk when you pick up the sauce pan for the simple syrup and walk towards the stove looks like you've given up on life. In a good way. And just for about 30 minutes.
Hey, danke für das tolle Video. Super zu sehen, wie das funktioniert. :) Ich bin auch in die Gin-Welt eingetaucht. Mag den London Dry Gin am aller liebsten. :) Hab mir jetzt auch das "Gin Buch" von Clavin Williams geholt. Da sind super viele Rezepte für Longdrinks und Cocktails mit Gin drin.
I'd love to see a similar video with Whisk(e)y! Maybe even some specific cocktails for the different whiskey styles (sherry-finished, peated, Bourbon, etc.)
Fantastic video. While I do love your really fancy cocktails (made your song of ice and fire a couple times) I find myself making these quite rarely since I need to spend so much on ingredients every time. This is really good for the lockdown period!
..my favourite is pre-prohibition era drink called the Gin Buck which is made with Ransom's Old Tom Gin (which has a a lovely blend of botanicals and has a slight amber colour), Cock & Bull ginger beer made with cane sugar (no "pedestrian" brand ginger ale made with HFCS) and lemon juice served in a Collins glass and garnished with a slice of lemon on the rim. This is the perfect summer quencher.
My favorite is Zeiver gin. The stuff is new and high end, but smooth and full of aroma. It's the only one I know that uses alovera. Honestly I like drinking gin straight, but I'm curious about the clover club; sounds pretty slick.
Yeah, it's pretty new. I think it's only available at theginstall.co.uk I got to sample it and absolutely loved it. Hopefully it will be more widely available soon. It's one to keep an eye out for. Thanks for the good content! I learn a lot.
I just tried making the gin gimlet with some mystery citrus (probably lemon-lime hybrid) from my backyard and some gin from the Original Spirit Co., a local distillery near Melbourne. It was really good. Great recipe.
Here in Russia, we have similar cocktail to French 75 and it's called Northern Lights. It's vodka plus sparkling vine and other ingredients for your taste, it is very popular among students, lol.
I second this. With three bottles of real Cuban Havana Club (3 year, Especial and 7 year) chilling in my liquor cabinet I really want some simple additions to my usual assortmemt of daiquiris, mojitos and Cuba Libres.
I agree with bandholm let's do em all. I m interested to see how you utilize round the house kitchen elements to characterize these other liquors. Thank you sir
New to the channel thanks to this video! Loved the cocktails, I'm already drinking one. Please do Rum, Whiskey and Tequila. Heck maybe even sparkling wine haha
So a tip for extending the life of your Simple Syrup that I learned from the internets is to put a small amount of vodka in it, usually I only do small batches (Maybe a quarter or half a cup at a time) of it so I just do like a quarter teaspoon or twos worth and it extends the life for another month or two. There's not enough vodka to affect the flavor of cocktails in my experience and it keeps you from having to make more.
Bill Markelz it will also last longer if you do 2 parts sugar to 1 part water, and then of course dial back the syrup amounts to compensate for the higher sugar content
when i mixed gordons (bombay in my case) breakfast, i have thoughts like im making some frankenstein monster, and when i tasted it... man, who could've thought of this? really amazing drink
i want to add when making the clover club...if you're not as experienced please pour the egg white in a separate container then add...you dont want to accidently bust yoke in your almost completed cocktail and waste it
I love learning new drinks and the history of alcohol plus you make good videos and you're talented. Thanks to your videos I feel like I get to live out my fantasy as a bartender. Just out of curiosity, have you ever gotten hammered during a making of an episode? Love your work.
It seems I've been mixing up a variation on the gimlet for years, and I didn't even know it. I make my own elderflower cordial and mix it with the juice of a lime and add two shots of plymouth with some crushed ice.
Gordon's Breakfast just changed my life. Great new go-to. Any suggestions for an Earl Grey-Infused Gin? It's a bit bitter and tannic from the tea so I'm having trouble using it successfully. I'll def try a bees knees with it.
I'm in quarantine drinking boilermakers. Simple easy drink but maybe you can do a video pairing different beers with different whiskey? Any pairings you think would be good?

Clapping a basil leaf and tossing it on top of a Bee's Knees is a phenomenal addition.
I always liked adding a dash or two of lavender bitters. Basil sounds great too!
This was the easiest

Yeah, I thought I heard that also! LOL
Perfect!
Loved that line
Gin being my favorite spirit, and my interest in cocktails having spiked higher than covid cases, I was excited to see this video in my feed. I've mostly been sipping Corpse Reviver no. 2's so I was glad to branch out. i tried the Bees Knees first and disaster struck as I spilled my shaker all over the floor. About a shot was spared and it was quite tasty. i just made a Gordon's Breakfast and it was fantastic. I had a little speedbump as my wife had turned all of our cucumbers into quick-pickles but seeing as the drink had significant acidity I decided to forge ahead and they worked perfectly. I used Hendrick's to accentuate the cucumber. The only thing I can complain about is not having enough, should have made a double. Clover Club is next and probably an Old Pepper from the whiskey video.
Love you mentioned the "Southside"...one of my favorite drinks. When at a bar I have to ask for a "Gin Mojito" bc nobody knows Southside lol
Steven Johnson I tried it for the first time at Anvil Bar & Refuge and it was an instant favorite! I also like to have it served up with a splash of champagne instead of soda water.
@@stuNzeeDkcuS YES!!! Anvil is one of the best bars out there!
A video like this for every spirit would be amazing, thanks Nick.
As cool as that would be... it wouldn't matter. You should always pick gin ;)
SGS_Gurk Goat cannot argue 🙂
The Gordon's Breakfast is one of my favourite summer cocktails. I usually just opt for lime juice instead of chunks of lime, though, and I kick the worcestershire and hot sauce up a little bit.
I hope the next one is whiskey I would love to see one this with that spirit

I've used mead to replace the honey in the bee's knees. Works quite well! My favorite is with a homebrewed hibiscus-mead.
Kjell-Anton Skare how much mead?
Oooo I need to find a recipe for home brewed hibiscus mead also now
Brilliant! Thank you for these straightforward and classic gin cocktails. I have been adding simple cocktails to my at home bar for dinner parties and cocktail parties. These are all wonderful additions. Cheers!

What is the difference between a garbanzo and a chickpea? I wouldn't let a garbanzo in my mouth. Ooookay, I'll show myself out. 🚪

Great video! First guy on TH-cam that explains so easily and straight forward how to make syrups. Thanks!
This compilation of easy-to-make gin cocktails is particularly welcome during these COVID-19 quarantine days. Would love to see additional episodes for whiskey and rum.
Glad I followed the links from How To Drink! I appreciate the accessibility of the four regular ice cubes vs large blocks that need cracked or cut.

Thanks for the clover club recipe. Made me one yesterday. Much respect
I’ve always made a bee’s knees with gin, honey, grapefruit juice, and pineapple juice. Worth a try.

Love Gimlets! I use Hendricks and garnish with a slice of cucumber. Very tasty!
Great vid Nick, I'd love to see what you do with brandy. My fave's a French Connection, preferably with an absinthe mist over the top.
All of the above, but especially a rum one. I have a white rum and a nice aged rum that I'd like to put to good use.
Clever use of "Take Five". Respect!
On the French 75 (Soixante Quinze) --
The gun had been somewhat derided as being not really powerful and of short range. However, it's breechblock and recoil design and fixed ammo gave it a high rate of fire -- about 15 rounds per minute; also its carriage design made it easy to transport and deploy near the front lines... and it was produced in large numbers.
And so the drink.
Just muddled some fresh strawberries in the Gimlet, amazing flavor!
Made your Clover Club tonight. Great recipe! Thank you.

A local speakeasy jazz club does a Bees Knees with Pimms and lavender bitters. It's so great we make it at home now that we can't go to the club.
The way you made the Clover Club is rad! Eliminating the hassle of making raspberry syrup.
Fantastic thank you! Five Easiest VODKA Cocktails next please sir! Right.... where’s that Bee’s Knees I just made?
Great video, thank you! What’s the name of the gin you are using in these cocktails?
So a tip for extending the life of your Simple Syrup that I learned from the internets is to put a small amount of vodka in it, usually I only do small batches (Maybe a quarter or half a cup at a time) of it so I just do like a quarter teaspoon or twos worth and it extends the life for another month or two. There's not enough vodka to affect the flavor of cocktails in my experience and it keeps you from having to make more.

Bill Markelz it will also last longer if you do 2 parts sugar to 1 part water, and then of course dial back the syrup amounts to compensate for the higher sugar content

Take Five by the Dave Brubeck Quartet in the intro. Nice!
It seems I've been mixing up a variation on the gimlet for years, and I didn't even know it.
I make my own elderflower cordial and mix it with the juice of a lime and add two shots of plymouth with some crushed ice.
Fantastic medley, yes, definitely more like this.
Mezcal if it’s not too niche! It’s become my new favorite spirit with its smokiness 👌
Gordon's Breakfast just changed my life. Great new go-to.
Any suggestions for an Earl Grey-Infused Gin? It's a bit bitter and tannic from the tea so I'm having trouble using it successfully. I'll def try a bees knees with it.
Would try to make a clarified milk punch
I'm in quarantine drinking boilermakers. Simple easy drink but maybe you can do a video pairing different beers with different whiskey? Any pairings you think would be good?
Something different but I'd like to see what you could do with KOMBUCHA. Either tips for at home making or ways to make mixed drinks with it.
thanks!
You should do 5 Mezcal cocktails! Dire need of this!
i did 5 tequila, can swap that for mezcal!
I would love to see a video like this for the whole whiskey family (Scotch, Bourbon, Rye, etc).
Would be helpful to see a guide about vodka. I have a very large storage of it, but not many ideas how to use it efficiently.
I have a small batch of simple syrup that i made in august or so last year. Still holds up. Used it a couple of days ago. Nothing wrong with it still
