Well damned. I clicked on the video because I have a bottle of gin I need to finish, but I stayed for the great video editing, the amazing narrating (that voice btw) and the nice music.
Absolutely fantastic. I add a splash of Grand Mariner to mine and garnish with a lemon twist. It gives it that depth without the having to peel another fruit.
+Whisky Daddy For sure. It's the way everyone else makes it. I just happen to like the 12BB method the best (even though it's not how it's traditionally made). Hope you dig it. Let me know what you think after you try it. Cheers!
Hey there mate, came back from disneyland Paris, yesterday and we had a nice twist on this one in our Hotel, it is calld "to bee or not to bee" made from Mezcal, honey syrup, pear juice and a sekwer of pear slice for garnish, tasted suprisingly good (suprisingly because of the lots of sweet from honey and juice a supposed but turned out really great)
Haha. Better than me. I know "oui" and that's about it. Lime would probably pair better. But I probably would've said that about the Bee's Knees too if I'd never tried it because gin and lime go so well together.
+Aaron Brennan There are links to them at the bottom of the description. I usually snag those on Amazon. Here are the links if you don't want to go hunting for them: Swing Bottle, 8.5 oz amzn.to/1Uw7n0y BlenderBottle, 28 oz amzn.to/1UvgKNy
Stumbled across this video while looking something else. I made a couple for my wife and myself. DAMN! They're delicious. Simple to make (especially as I already had a bottle of homemade honey syrup from my Tike explorations), but tastes sophisticated and downright delicious.
Perhaps, but there are too many good gins that are readily available out there to do all that. Besides, the nasty spirits that were being distilled by amateurs would not be as good or refined as any vodka you could find.
For 99% of people making drinks at home, doesn't it make more sense to chill glasses in the freezer than with a soon to be discarded glass of ice and water?
The music made watching this video even more enjoyable.
Good. Glad you liked it. You're right, the song in this one was particularly good. Cheers!
@@DistinguishedSpirits Is it possible to add the songs played in the comments section?
your camera work and shots are amazing
Awesome! Thanks for the love.
Listening to your narrarion makes me feel drunk already. Bottoms up! 🍸🍹🍷 cheers!
Haha. Thanks?
Best cocktail videos on UA-cam, love the history and backstory of each of these, do you own a bar? I’d travel to go there if you did!
Negative. Just a home bar. Glad to hear you dig the videos. Cheers!
Well damned. I clicked on the video because I have a bottle of gin I need to finish, but I stayed for the great video editing, the amazing narrating (that voice btw) and the nice music.
Cheers! Glad to hear it!
I finished that bottle btw
This is simple and best gin cocktail. honey and lemon combination is always right.
So good! Cheers!
I will try it, cause I love Gin... And I like how you presented it... With that lovely music.
Excellent! Let me know how it turns out!
Absolutely fantastic. I add a splash of Grand Mariner to mine and garnish with a lemon twist. It gives it that depth without the having to peel another fruit.
+smashedsaturn Oooh. That's getting into White Lady territory. The Bee's Lady, maybe? I'll have to give it a whirl. Cheers!
Finally had the chance to make this. Waited until I was able to find the same navy strength gin you used. It was fucking amazing. Goes very easy
Oh great! Glad you liked it as much as I did. Cheers!
Just made this on the first hot spring day and it goes perfectly with weather!
+5016187s Oh great! Good timing. Enjoy!
Great as always, never stop making these!
+Thomas Jorna Cheers! Thanks for the love.
Just discovered your channel, I really dig your style, and that voice. Smooth as a single-malt scotch.
+Creepo Awesome. Thank you! Welcome to the channel. Glad you dig it.
Just discovered your channel and already love it :D and your voice.. damn!!
Haha. Cheers! Welcome to the channel.
can't wait to make this one at the home bar! probably have to stick with the lemon peel in mine.
+Whisky Daddy For sure. It's the way everyone else makes it. I just happen to like the 12BB method the best (even though it's not how it's traditionally made). Hope you dig it. Let me know what you think after you try it. Cheers!
this video is class.
Haha. Cheers!

Oooh. Sounds good. Lemon juice?
I Am honest , I think it was lime but the ingredients where quoted in French in the menue and my French is lacking at its best
Haha. Better than me. I know "oui" and that's about it.
Lime would probably pair better. But I probably would've said that about the Bee's Knees too if I'd never tried it because gin and lime go so well together.
How many takes do you make until you get the bottles slide just right in to the frames?
+chazz30000 Haha. A magician never reveals his secrets.
I think I'm gonna go make one right now with the orange twist, to see if I taste a difference.
Promise you will. Haha.
just tried it. delicious!
You can say that again. Cheers!
Where did you get the bottles that you use for your pre-bottled juices/syrups?
+Aaron Brennan There are links to them at the bottom of the description. I usually snag those on Amazon. Here are the links if you don't want to go hunting for them:
Swing Bottle, 8.5 oz

have a 2:1 honey syrup and the bar hill gin (honey flavoured) and do:
2oz gin 3/4 lemon juice 1/4 honey syrup.
Interesting. I'll have to give it a try. I've never tried Bar Hill. Sounds like I'll have to change that. Cheers!
do you work as a bartender? or is this just a hobby that you've practiced on your own?
Just a hobby
...hobby/borderline obsession. Haha.
Definitly I'll try it this very evening, it seem marvelous! What's the soundtrack on the background?
Great! Let me know what you think of it. I added the music credit to the Description, but the song was Blue Orleans by MusicBox.
Distinguished Spirits it was awesome!! I love your videos, keep'em coming!!!
any chance you'd do the tea's knees from the 12 bottle bar?
I haven't tried it, but it sounds amazing. That ginger...drool...

Awesome! Glad you liked it so well. That orange twist makes for a wonderful and surprising introduction when you bring the drink to your lips.
How about a homemade gin made by steeping juniper an spices in vodka. This would be more like the bathtub gins of the era.
Perhaps, but there are too many good gins that are readily available out there to do all that. Besides, the nasty spirits that were being distilled by amateurs would not be as good or refined as any vodka you could find.
For 99% of people making drinks at home, doesn't it make more sense to chill glasses in the freezer than with a soon to be discarded glass of ice and water?
Sure. That'll work too.
i always have some glasses in the freezer, never know... jajajajjaja
does it have to be 20 mins
+MeowmelKitty What do you mean?
Drunk
It's about time.
