Okay! Full disclosure - I am obsessed, in a good way about Super Juice! I have used your Calculators to make all types! My first time on our show - I made a 5 citrus Super Juice with Lemon, Lime, Orange, Blood Orange and Grapefruit. We made a Daiquiri to test out the Super Juice head to head with the exact 5 citrus blend freshly squeezed. We were blown away and the Super Juice became a part of our show! Cheers and thank you for doing the Calculators on your website! Big fans!
You are not gonna read this but, as a bartender myself, your videos are like a fresh breeze of knowledge that will enhance my patrons experience behind my bar. Thank you so much for that!
Made my first daiquiri last night. Same spec as the modern but with fresh lime juice in lieu of super juice. Have you tried shaking the cocktail with the spent lime half? I started doing this with fresh lime gimlets and am rather pleased with the flavor enhancement.
Great video as always. I went to Cuba in early 2019, it was such a good experience and my like from cocktails came from there. My personal favorite is the floridita daiquiri, I've tried to replicate it and the way it resembles it the most is to make a regular frozen daiquiri but with some triple sec and sugar instead of syrup.
To me 2022 was always the best because thats the only one that I've tried. But that changed with the 1937 version!! I can say that it's almost as equal good! The texture is soooo nice!
I made almost the exact same daiquiri as the last one the other night, it's so simple but so fantastic. Almost time to make another batch of lime and lemon super juices!
In the Floridita version, to prevent the snow ice from separating from the liquid in your glass, you must put a little sugar on top of the ice before mixing it in the blender.
My Dad and his Cuban friend were born around the turn of the 20th century. When they got together in the winter in Canada, they couldn't get limes, so they used lemons. They crushed the ice by putting it in a tea towel and hammering away. They put the sugar, rum, juice, and ice into a jar, shook them like crazy, and poured them through a strainer. Nectar for the gods.
hey Kevin! I have a question about superjuice. My lemon superjuice always works out well, but i find my lime superjuice is always not sour enough. Im using your ratios, but is there maybe something im missing? thanks!
The Daiquiri is probably my favorite 3-ingredients cocktail. Simple, fast and never fails. Great video guys! I hope you can make a video of your own version of one of my favorite classic cocktails, Bloody Mary.
Thank you, Marco, glad you enjoyed the episode! You should try the Daiquiri (or more of them, actually) at El Floridita! As for the Bloody Mary, check out the Halloween episode with the cocktail I named Mary's Blood 🧛♂️😄
I've recently started using Diplimatico for my daiquiris and I'm certainly not disappointed. It's a great Rum option for it in a daiquiri and a mojito. Hell, I even have an original Drink Recipe that's based on a favorite video game of mine using it. The game is called Maneater and this is the Recipe: Maneater's Vengeance 1 Oz lime juice 1/2 Oz Dark Cherry Rubarb syrup 1 Oz Diplimatico Aged Light Rum 1 Oz Pillar's Light Rum 1/2 Oz Plantation 3 Star Shake over a whole and cracked cube of ice for 20-30 seconds or until the cracked ice has dissolved. Then serve over crushed ice with an optional float of Plantation OFTD or Pillar's Dark Rum or Pillar's Limited Edition Sherry Caske finish Rum. And garnish will a lime peel twist.
First video to see and comment on, but tell me you're sponsored by diplomatico. There is no way a genuine rhum lover would choose this VENEZUELAN molasses glycerin infused concoction. At leat be honest and say it was a payout. Many pros would agree that a dryer, purely rectified "out of the still" rhum would be more coherent. Great work on historical events though. Very cleverly put together and the editing is luscious. Thank you. An absolute treat to the eyes
Kevin - how do you keep your copper bar ware smudge less and clean? My shaker turns black upon washing and I have to use baking soda to clean it. Suggestions?
I love the modern daiquiri specs, but my favorite might actually be a variation I found through Esquire called the Harpo's Special. Both because the Marx brothers have a special place in my heart and because it's a legitimately great drink.
Good view of the daiquiri. Might I suggest not banging on your tins, that is not the proper way to seal a Boston Shaker. Instead, just place the tins together and start with a few slow gentle shakes, this causes the air in the tins to chill and contract making the inside of the tin have a lower pressure than the atmosphere and pushing the tins together. The slowly speed up and become more vigorous with your shaking. after 10 to 20 shakes you're going at vigorous full speed and the shaker is sealed, no banging necessary. This can be even more important when you are using a glass as half of the shaker, while breakage is exceedingly rare, it can happen.
Alas, what Bacardi bottles, today, is a mere shadow-if even that-of the rum that made Cuban rum and the Daiquiri famous. Without vintage spirits, it’s basically impossible to revisit the taste of a pre-1960 Daiquiri, let alone a pre-1930 one. Nobody (including Havana Club) makes rum that way, today, and it’s a big bummer. Luckily, you can make tasty daiquiris (little D) with almost any good rum.
Great video! The modern daiquiri with superjuce is my favorite ever since your superjuice video. I build mine in a graduated cylinder with a mix of white and gold rums the way Ed Hamilton did on his first episode of Spike's Breezeway Cocktail hour ua-cam.com/video/3ljC673n3Wo/v-deo.html. Cheers!
I've noticed some bartenders on UA-cam do this, why do you start with the spirit first and not with the cheapest ingredients i e. juices and syrups. I'm sure that at your bar you build it opposite and was curious.

Been subbed for a long time - love your work - could you do a recipe for a Spanish drink tinto verano con lemon but clarified ?
Just here to help the performance!
Thanks Kevin and team!
Love the different daiquiris here. The blended version (when made well) is so underrated, as it's such a refreshing summer sipper!
They certainly know what they're doing at El Floridita, I can tell you that! 🤩 Cheers!

The Hemingway Daiquiri with super lime juice is out of this world!!!
love a daiquiri with a demerara rum and demerara sugar, adds a lot of flavor while still being the same classic ingredients
So many great ways to make this delicious classic!
You are not gonna read this but, as a bartender myself, your videos are like a fresh breeze of knowledge that will enhance my patrons experience behind my bar. Thank you so much for that!
I am reading this 😉 Thank you for leaving me this nice comment. I am glad you spread the knowledge and experience to your bar patrons. Cheers!

I’ve been watching you for a while now and have to say that I couldn’t think of any way to make better cocktail videos than you do! Great channel
just made my first lime superjuice inspired by your video as well as the daiquiri from it. It is so great. Thanks for educating us Kevin!
Always perfect amount of information entertainment and educational. Great videos and drinks. Thanks and cheers
Thank you so much, glad you enjoy a bit of history of these classics!
The history of cocktail is interesting. Love the series.
Glad you like it. The history of cocktails is super interesting so it's nice to dig into it. Cheers!

I couldn't find a better video about Daiquiris. Very informative and professional. It explains what a daiquiri is plus detailed history !
Thank you!
To me 2022 was always the best because thats the only one that I've tried. But that changed with the 1937 version!! I can say that it's almost as equal good! The texture is soooo nice!
Is that why the label on the bottle winks at us during the episode?!?!? 🤣
@@mcdermittd maybe. 😄 you have some eagle eyes!
I knew you would like that one best! Cheers!
Love the in depth of history!
And you liked the second Daiquiri the most, right? Cheers!
Been to that bar in Cuba and I love it
Excellent work as always Kevin!
Fantastic episode!
7:18 thought i was seeing things for a second there
Haha love it! That tells me you are focused when watching! 😜
Now this is exactly what im here for. Awesome video, kevin and team
I made almost the exact same daiquiri as the last one the other night, it's so simple but so fantastic. Almost time to make another batch of lime and lemon super juices!
It takes it another level! Cheers!
1937 or 2022, any day of the summer! 🤩
2 great ways to enjoy this refreshing classic! 🤩
Well done Kevin you present your channel very well with style and grace - Baie goed!
In the Floridita version, to prevent the snow ice from separating from the liquid in your glass, you must put a little sugar on top of the ice before mixing it in the blender.
I love a daiquiri, especially with super juice. Great video!
What a great episode Cocktail Time team!
Thanks, Fido! Cheers!

One of my favorite in great variations 🍸
Great cocktail with an interesting history!
Hi Cocktail Time with Kevin Kos, I really like this recipe. I am making it!
I LOVE RUM!
Love the song ! Buenavista? Congrats for the video sir!
Classic spec, but try shaking it with a grapefruit peel in the tin. Mind-blowing, you'll never look back.
A grapefruit regal shake, brilliant! 🤩
Took me a second to realize why the Vacation Kevin picture was throwing me off, but it's the moustache.
Kevin - how do you keep your copper bar ware smudge less and clean? My shaker turns black upon washing and I have to use baking soda to clean it.
Suggestions?
Great episode. You have discovered a magical cocktail of entertaining videos!!
Ha, nicely worded, thank you! I hope you like your spot on the Cocktail Time Wall of Fame!
Love the spot. Glad to support you and your team!
Pretty much how I like my Daiquiri - 6:2:1 60ml Rum (Havana Club) 20ml lime superjuice (your recipe of course) and 10 ml cane sugar syrup (2:1).
You should probably have used the bacardi heritage rum for the original daiquiri
Amazing ! But if have a question
Where is the fantom hand 😂
Did that bottle just wink at me or am I just hungover
You are correct! Thanks for pointing that out. So good news is you are not hungover.
you could make a video reinventing the Shirley Temple or another mocktail?
This is one of those cocktails you'll make without knowing what it is, by just using whatever you have laying around
How can i make the saline solution?
Dissolve 20g of salt in 80g of water. Simple, right? Enjoy your Daiquiris, cheers!
I really like the 2022 one I’ll have one please
My favorite too 😁
Kevin, more historical stories. Пожалуйста.
I love the modern daiquiri specs, but my favorite might actually be a variation I found through Esquire called the Harpo's Special. Both because the Marx brothers have a special place in my heart and because it's a legitimately great drink.
I would really like some merch it would be awesome
You can check our merch here: my-store-11171765.creator-spring.com So thankful you would like to support our work! Cheers!
I really like the Never old fashion enough hoodie what a man you are

I love daiquiri but canchanchara is even better
Also truffles on the rock just made a video about daiquiri
Interesting! I have to check it out 😁
@@KevinKos you should
engagement!
🤗🤗👌

Brazilians swapped Bacardi for a drink called "pinga" or "cachaça" and named it "caipirinha"
I've noticed some bartenders on UA-cam do this, why do you start with the spirit first and not with the cheapest ingredients i e. juices and syrups. I'm sure that at your bar you build it opposite and was curious.
Ernest Hemingway was about the coolest MF ever.
Second
Especially on the hot days right? Cheers!
Not a fan of Steve I see 😆
7 days between videos is far too long! I find myself refreshing hoping new content is out 😂
Haha sorry. At the time we only manage to make one episode per week. The whole Cocktail Time team still has regular jobs. Thank you for the support!
Daiquiries are great, rum is great, Bacardi is nasty though.
The one we had at El Floridita is still my favorite 😍 Sorry honey!
Wow.
