The Tropical Island Drink Made On An Island That Isn't Tropical
When you think of sipping tropical cocktails, you often connect it with island life. But what if your island isn't in the tropics?
This is the situation that guests who visit Kiki's Lounge on the Isle Of Man find themselves in, and they love it!
Today, we join Drew Flemming in a not so tropical location for a tropical cocktail called Ernest & Rita.
As the name suggests, the Ernest & Rita is a drink that sits between a Daiquiri and a Margarita, with Tequila, a touch of Mezcal, Elderflower Liqueur, Campari, Pink Grapefruit 'superjuice' and Simple Syrup.
And it really shows that you don't need hot temperatures to either make and appreciate this tropical island concoction.
For more information on Kiki Lounge, go to www.kikis.im

Cocktail tools for this drink:
Jigger - amzn.to/3WQ08E8
Glass - amzn.to/4cMDjbG
Drinkmate OmniFizz Sparkling Water and Soda Maker - amzn.to/3xY5F3L

This sounds good, but it is a really distant relative of the original. I’ll give it a try though, because I live in the Negroni universe.

Do you have any recommendations for soju cocktails? Specifically something stiff?
Got to admit, we haven't done a lot with Soju and most of the cocktails using the spirit that I've seen have been light, summer drinks with strawberry, mango, pineapple etc and fairly low proof - one that was made for me years ago (but I don't remember the name) used an ounce of Soju, an ounce of pear Vodka, half an ounce of lime and top soda water ..., that could be stiffer than most you see ... otherwise have a look at the full Grabriel Lowe video (ua-cam.com/video/aKM21cqH16I/v-deo.htmlsi=CR6nHMcQH1y1XF-T) and some of the work done at Singapore's Cat Bite Club - hope this helps ...
The riff on a spritz sounds delicious and refreshing! Terrific bartender! Lovely video!
Interesting riffs on simple cocktails is very much the watchword(s) of the summer
@@CocktailsDistilled Yes!! Absolutely!! Cheers!
Sounds spectacular!
Fabulous!! What great people working here! Love this drink!
Love these guys … super fun cocktail
Looks like tons of fun!! Fabulous!!
Wow this is a gorgeous drink!! I'd love to try this! Cognac, Jasmin and the addition of Sauvignon Blanc sound fabulous!! 🙂
We often don’t think of dark spirits for Spring but this shows how adaptable they can be
I agree!! ☝️
Sounds fabulous!! 🙂Awesome bartender! I love the idea of coriander in a Margarita!!
Yes, the flavour combination sounds great .. I think it would be a really fun bar to visit in person
Me too!!
Love this man, his stories, his philosophy, I would be friends with Jackie Summers given the chance. Enjoy!
Yes, he is a remarkable man - what he has been through and then what he has created are amazing
Yana is amazing!! Superb bartender and a lovely person! Fabulous fun personality!! I love visiting this spectacular bar when travelling!! Delicious cocktail - one of my faves!! I love how the gin stands out in this spectacular cocktail! Yana is a pro! She makes the best Martinis! Bombay is a perfect London Dry Gin to use and yes always keep the Gin chilled!! Cheers! :-)
Yes, she’s great - and that’s kind of the point - to highlight wonderful drinks but also the amazing talents (from around the world) that create them
@@CocktailsDistilled Exactly!! 🙂
Wow! Talk about a delicious riff! 🙂
I love the addition of Montenegro to an Old Fashioned … really interesting choice
Yes!! 👍 Delicious choice!!
@@CocktailsDistilled I agree! Delicious addition!! Cheers! 🙂
Sounds yummy!! Cheers!

Can that magnesium powder cause laxative effects in some people who are sensitive to it? Is it magnesium citrate, or a different form like magnesium bysglicinate?
Hey - I'm afraid you'll have to contact Derek Brown or Calm, the company that makes the magnesium supplement, to answer that question. We have no medical knowledge, so it would be irresponsible for us to attempt to answer it.
@@CocktailsDistilled I just want to know if it's magnesium citrate or something else. It should say that on the label. As long as it's not the citrate type, it should be fine.
Super cool! I am from Seattle, so it's cool to know a little more about the drink! Thanks for making the video and podcast!
Glad you enjoyed it - it really is a great no-alc alternative
Awesome!!
It certainly is a very cool drink, from a very cool bar
Looks like a great place for a funky time!
Without a doubt!
Love this idea for a pisco sour!
It's very cool, isn't it? Mike Ryan really is a wonder with a Pisco Sour
I shared a page from ur book to a FourSeasons mate. Can u guess which one? 😘🤎 nice to meet you through you book.
Lauren has written an amazing book. And all the pages are pretty share-able - thanks
Very good video but please get a mic
Will do
Man is quick and efficient! Experience is speaking here
best cocktail ever
I am out for a wasabi flavoured cocktail. Now I don't know how this one tastes. But the attitude and skills of this fella are sooooo good. 👌
I love it! Whats binifits to my body pls.explain!
Yes, We just came in Peru and had a lot of Pisco Sours. So good. Thanks
It's interesting to see what spirits are on the rise these days.
I do hope Soju gets more accepted; it actually makes amazing cocktails.
This Soju cocktail sounds fabulous and so delicious!! 🙂
Yes, as Gabriel mentions in the video, it's a really approachable way to get into Soju if you've never explored the spirit before. Do you use Soju much in your cocktails?
@@CocktailsDistilled I have had Soju in a couple of cocktails and they have been amazing! I'd love to explore it more!!
@@christinecamley Yes, a lot of the rice spirits are incredibly underutilized in most bars but hopefully that is slowly changing
@@CocktailsDistilled I think many of us are so curious about spirits and innovative cocktails! Bigtime! Soju will become much more commonly utilized in delicious cocktails as more people learn about it and more bars feature terrific drinks using Soju!! It's all positive!! Great video to help in learning more about this lovely spirit!! This is exciting!! Thanks for the awesome reply!! Cheers!! 🙂
good
Yes, he does a nice throw
That's a really interesting combo of ingredients
Yes, it's very cool, isn't it? It makes you want to explore the cocktail bars of Copenhagen to see what other concoctions they have created
This beautiful Negroni riff looks so delicious! I love the Gin infusion and the Lacto-Ferment Strawberry! What an amazing combination of flavours! Exciting! Terrific bartender! Thanks for an awesome video! Cheers! 🙂
Hey Christine - yes, Panji is a great bartender and so knowledgeable - there are details as to the infusion and the ferment on our website, if you want to give it a go - I just thought the colour was amazing and very vibrant - it would be the perfect drink to have on holidays in Bali!
@@CocktailsDistilled Yes the colour is so amazing and vibrant! It would be the perfect cocktail to sip on a lovely trip to Bali!! 🙂
Really interesting sounding drink
Yes, these guys are great. Will be interested to see where they come in the Asia's 50 Best Bar list, which will be released soon
This infusion with gin sounds absolutely spectacular and so delicious! What an amazing cocktail! Fabulous video and such an amazing bartender/owner! SUPERBUENO is a bar I have to visit! 🙂
Yes, it does sound fabulous. Nacho is one of the bar's co-owners - he has over 20 years of experience in the industry. Before COVID, I went to his last bar, Ghost Donkey, which was amazing, so I can only imagine that SUPERBRUNO is equally or more spectacular. Hopefully, I will get to NY again soon, and if you are planning a trip, I would say definitely go and have a look!
@@CocktailsDistilled Terrific reply! Thank you! I will definitely check out SUPERBUENO on my next trip to Manhattan which will be soon!! 🙂
@@christinecamley You'll have to let me know when you do - I'd love to hear what you think
Un saluto dall'Italia
Salute!
Brilliant
Izzy is amazing, isn't she? And such a nice use of coffee liqueur ...
Terrific ambassador/bartender!! 🙂 This is a really beautiful cocktail and it looks so refreshing. What a fabulous choice for brunch with a low ABV or when someone wants a lighter cocktail! Delicious ingredients! I also date my Vermouth! I adore the Martini that has been prepared and it is a huge personal favourite!! I love my Martini super chilled and dry!! I really enjoy the Extra Dry Noilly Prat! It goes so well in a Martini! Amazing pairing of fantastic flavours!! Cheers!! :-)
I love that you date your Vermouth! People often don't realise that it degrades over time, so doing that (and storing Vermouth in the fridge) makes all the difference to the quality of your Martini.
@@CocktailsDistilled Exactly!! t's all about taking time to make a quality cocktail and knowing when Vermouth gets opened is one of the keys to that! A high quality Martini is worth the effort!! Cheers!! 🙂
Izzy is amazing and she is going to make the new Milady's a huge hit!! Fabulous bartender!! What huge skill and a fabulous personality! The presentation of this spectacular Old Fashioned variation is outstanding and oh does it look delicious! This is the cocktail I want when I visit Milady's! Julie Reiner has such terrific establishments!! Fabulous video!! Cheers!! :-)
Yes, Izzy is amazing! And what they are doing with Milady is fabulous! So glad you liked the video
@@CocktailsDistilled Thanks so much!! 🙂
