  • Liquid Intelligence by Dave Arnold is one of the best books I ever read, so I had to make a twist on one of Dave’s cocktails. I generally love a Highball and it’s the go-to cocktail for me back at my home, but this Clarified apple juice and Aberlour 12 Highball was something else. With Jean-Felix from ‪@TrufflesOnTheRocks‬ creating an awesome clarified apple juice cocktail as part of our Cocktail Challenge Time I thought this was the perfect idea for you to make if you decide to try clarifying apple juice. Find the recipes (for the classic and Apple Highballs) and the link to JF’s episode below. Cheers!

    Scotch & Apple Highball
    Into a chilled soda siphon add (you can double the measurements to make 2 cocktails with 1 CO2 cartridge):
    · 52,5 ml (1.75 oz) Aberlour 12
    · 75 ml (2.5 oz) clarified apple juice*
    · 30 ml (1 oz) cold water
    · 2 dashes cherry bitters
    · 2 drops of saline solution
    Charge the soda siphon with a CO2 cartridge, shake well and carefully release the gas. Once the siphon is degassed, open it and pour the cocktail into a chilled highball glass filled with ice. Garnish with a thin slice of apple.
    *Juice enough apples to get 300 ml of apple juice. Mix in 0.75 of ascorbic acid or Vitamin C into the first 30 ml, to prevent browning (if you don’t have Vitamin C you can add 50 ml of lemon juice, but it will add flavor as well). To 300 ml of juice add 0.6 g of pectinex, stir well and place in the fridge in a sealed jar. After 12 hours (or when you see a clear separation in the jar) filter the apple juice through a coffee filter and bottle.
    Highball Cocktail
    · 45 ml (1.5 oz) Scotch whiskey
    · top-up soda water
    Pour the ingredients over ice in a highball glass. Turn the cocktail with a barspoon to incorporate and garnish with a lemon peel.

    What’s your stance on a Scotch Highball? Classy & elegant or too plain & simple?

    •  2 роки тому

      I love the fact that it is simple, easy to make and elegant on top.

    • @motttheben
      @motttheben 2 роки тому +1

      Is a neat scotch too plain & simple? I think not! Lengthening it and adding texture via carbonation only highlights the complexity and improves it imo.

    • @robifiser
      @robifiser 2 роки тому

      I have to admit that my first thoughts on the cocktail, after only seeing the recipe, was something along the lines of "why would you add sparkling water to Scotch, that would ruin it", but I stand corrected. It's a delicious sipper, so refreshing and easy to drink but still full of nuanced flavors.

    As always elevating some of the simplest things to perfection! Whiskey & soda is a classic for me too during summertime, if I have my choice of whiskey my favourite is the Glasgow Blend from Compass Box for this or a Cardhu 12 if I’m sharing with dad since it’s one of his favourites. Robi did OK in my opinion, he’s no replacement though 😉

    @GogiRegion 5 місяців тому +1

    Just as a warning, pectinase produces methanol as a byproduct of its clearing properties. Nowhere near enough that you should be worried about methanol toxicity (especially when ethanol treats methanol poisoning), but it may be enough that if you drink a lot of these highballs, it may make your hangover worse.

    Hello If I'm going to pre-batch several cocktails with soda siphon and I'm going to drink only a part of it today and the rest later, is it okay to put it in the refrigerator with the gas charged? And do I need to recharge the gas again when I reuse it the next day?

      Store it under pressure or in a smaller bottle so you won't lose much Co2. This way, it should be good the day after.
