I love a good bar hack that saves my fruit (and money). Not only is cordial easy to make and a great way to upcycle old fruit, it’s also so delicious and a great alternative to simple syrup in lots of cocktail recipes. I hope you give this method of cordial making a try and let me know what you think. Cheers!
Great video. This looks fantastic. Usually I don't have issues with the juice, since I like to drink it or add the lemon or lime one to water for some extra taste. However I definetly am trying lately to use more of the citrus peel as well, including drying it, for infusions or other cocktail projects in the future. Can you show us how you make shrubs as well? Cheers!
What’s the difference between between a Oleo, Cordial and Simple Syrup? Would you use the three interchangeably? Is there more flavor in one than the other? Anyone know?
Hi! Oleo = syrup made from only sugar and oil of the fruit peel (no acid. Simple syrup = sugar and water Cordial: syrup made with sugar, fruit juice and oleo Cordial will have the most flavor
Sure! I used it in this non alcoholic cocktail ua-cam.com/video/G82jjakCPbg/v-deo.html Stand by for an alcoholic cocktail using the grapefruit cordial. It’s great in a Paloma 😊
Better way it's to put juice and sugar cooked in sous vide, you loose less flavors and aromas 😉 doesnt change a lot but you keep consistency on point every time you do it, heating can end up with some evaporation.
You have a good way to explain the procedure and a nice voice that can help you to be a good video producer. However, there is no need to add refined sugar to a grapefruit that already contains enough sugar, Refined sugar can produce diabetes and cancer.. A grapefruit can easily be fresh in the refrigerator for a month. And the best way to cut in wedges and eat it.with the white skin. .After that, rinse the mouth to protect teeth from acid, and use some olive oil to clean skin around the mouth to avoid “melancolia”.Another thing to avoid is to boil acid in stainless steel that is not quirurgical. It may be better to cook acidic things in glass pots. Not everything is wrong, it can end up being a delicious cordial which in a food scarcity may save lives. Also, the grapefruit and orange pills can be eaten once in a while where cold makes it right to eat such a candy.

A great hack. You’re right, there’s definitely a lot of citrus waste when making cocktails! 🤦♂️🥃
Thanks! I think it adds a little something extra when swapped out for simple
Thank you for shearing its an honest pleasure seeing someone doing bar work so perfectly and with such spirit 💪🧠
Thank you so much! And thank you for watching 😊
Citrus waste is pretty inevitable in the cocktail biz but it's nice to see ways of preserving some of it. This looks great! 🥃
Thank you! Throwing away food is my number 1 pet peeve!
Beautiful video and great advice!
I love all your recipes..
Thanks Luis! I really appreciate it 😊
Somehow I just thought of a mezcal with grapefruit cordial 😋
Yum! That sounds fantastic!
Have you thought about using glass jars to help make your oleo? I feel like it would help you on your waste!
Love the style of your videos! So aesthetic. 🙌🏻
Thank you 😊 my husband is the mastermind behind the edits. He’ll be so happy to hear this!

Cordial: syrup made with sugar, fruit juice and oleo
Cordial will have the most flavor
Stirred into yoghurt or drizzled over oats! 😋 I'm going to make some right now!
So tasty!
@@TheWeePearl I made the cordial yesterday and have the oleo whatsit doing it's thing in the bag, will bottle this afternoon 👍
@@rho1360 awesome! I hope you love it
Great channel
Thank you so much! 😊
Hey when would you add spices like cardamome or pepper during the process ? Looks nice i'll try tomorrow with tangerine !
When you are making the syrup on the stove! Enjoy!
Great tip!!! Didn´t you use any citric or malic acid? Isn´t necessary to make a cordial? All the best
Hello! You can certainly add those, but it’s more common in super juice
Can you show us a drink with this in it. Maybe a cocktail and a none alcoholic drink?
Sure! I used it in this non alcoholic cocktail ua-cam.com/video/G82jjakCPbg/v-deo.html
Stand by for an alcoholic cocktail using the grapefruit cordial. It’s great in a Paloma 😊
Hi what’s the ratio of oleo sacchrum to juice ? I am a little confused
What a great bartending hack. Will for sure give this a try.
Thanks. Let me know how it worked out!

Great tip! I will try that next time. Cheers!
@@TheWeePearl thank you for sharing your knowledge in your channel🙏
