Hello, friends. We are starting a new series exploring Instagram's most liked and shared cocktails. We will share what we think is worth bringing from the screen to your glass. Welcome to the Instagram Cocktails Decoded. Don't forget to like, share, and comment, and if you find a cocktail on Instagram you want us to make on the channel, well, give us a heads up.

This looks tasty

[@JSOS]

Smashing little cocktail. We love it 👍🏼

[@stephane.foisy.186]

Looks awesome must try. So now the fun of English biweekly either means two times a week or ever two weeks. 😜

[@JSOS]

re it will be every two weeks. I am so confused with this biweekly game haha 😅

[@astersmith2398]

Biweekly means every two weeks. Semiweekly is twice every week.

[@stephane.foisy.186]

@@astersmith2398 a recent change but most dictionaries still provide both definitions. Ahh the english language :D

[@JSOS]

@@astersmith2398 aha, this makes more sense. I am useless 🙈

[@TheWhiskeyNerd]

Sounds lovely. As you said you need to try from the cranberry juice and not the top, I think I'll make one of these with 35ml Cranberry juice shaken in it, strained over ice in a Collins glass. I love a Tom Collins and a Gin sour and the idea of it being fruity just sounds a perfect mix.
I often have trouble getting a "float" such as the red wine on a New York Sour. If using 45ml spirit I split it 30ml and mix 15ml of it in with the wine/float to ensure it is lighter so floats easy. Thanks guys, great video again

[@JSOS]

For sure, it has to do with the juice. Bottled juice is not as light as fresh squeezed juice. Anyway, it turned out very nicely, and we loved the cocktail. One little trick to float is adding a splash of soda water. The carbonation keeps it up but is not fizzy.

[@bigzosso]

I'll give the soda a go. Is a teaspoon enough in a 20ml-ish float of say, wine or cranberry?@@JSOS

[@JSOS]

@@bigzosso Maybe 10ml. Give it a try. Also, ensure the wine is not sweet because it will be heavy. The secret is to don't have sugar. Cranberry should be OK if it doesn't have added sugar.
