    I used to make something similar, never knew it had a name. I always preferred shaved ice, made it like a grown up slushy.
    By the way, Glen, have you ever been able to get your hands on Kyrö Gin from Finland? Ian McCollum did a spotlight on the distillery a year or two ago. It's barrel aged and might be something interesting for you. Thanks for the episode and cheers!

    I actually already make this exact cocktail (but usually shaken with no soda). It's such a simple combination I figured it already existed but I hadn't seen it anywhere before.

    The drink made with Dillon's gin looks like a Fresca on ice. Not a soda drinker, but Fresca is my favorite soda.

    I'm always a non-gin person BUT if the gin flavor can be downplayed I'd be willing to give it a try. I used to enjoy Collins drinks. A friend of our family made us kids one for some occasion. He included some booze but kept it light so the other adults wouldn't flip. We loved it.

    Another great video and I’ve gotta add that these videos are about as refreshing as I’m sure those drinks are! I much prefer these cocktail videos to the grating cocktail content I see on the UA-cam Stories or on TikTok.

    my favorite summertime drink is called a The Scarlett O'Hara Cocktail
    2 ounces Southern Comfort
    1/2 ounce lime juice
    2 to 4 ounces cranberry juice, to taste
    Lime wedge, for garnish I go with 6 to 8 oz of cranberry juice

    I looked up the Ted Saucier cocktail manual 'Bottom's Up book and he liked to show the semi naked ladies in various positions!
    It is done in a more artistic almost cartoony way so you sometimes have to guess if its a lady or a drink glass featuring a lady!

    I have a (cheap but not too cheap) triple sec left over from my daiquiri phase. I know a triple sec is not quite a curacao, but how do you think the flavor profile would be changed by using triple sec? Less orange-y?

    I picked up the unfiltered Dillon’s gin and it was weirdly unflavored by gin standards. Not to mention totally clear. Maybe an off batch?

  • @ludingtonian584
    @ludingtonian584 2 роки тому +1

    You changed two variables at once. There should have been four cocktails. Two with the same Cointreau but different gins, and two with the same gin and different Cointreaux. Still, it looks delicious regardless.

    Isn't cointreau a triple sec and not a curacao? not sure if it makes a difference to the recipe but i thought triple sec tends to be sweeter.

    • @GlenAndFriendsCooking
      @GlenAndFriendsCooking  2 роки тому +1

      Cointreau is one of the original curaçao producers - in fact for many years ‘curaçao’ was on their label. At some point they removed it as a marketing move.
      All of the terms related to this particular group of liqueurs are marketing related and are unregulated - therefore have no real meaning. We did a tasting video of a dozen or so, (plus a lot of background research on the history) and found that todays producers don’t follow any of the original methods… except Cointreau.
