  • This week I thought I would show you something a little different. Bar Talk and Cocktails is on Patreon. And on Patreon I do a video series called Crafting Cocktails with Bruce. Basically it’s me making up a cocktail on the spot based on suggestions from either my Producers Viv and Aaron or one of my Patrons. A while ago one of my Patrons Henry asked if I could make a Melon Syrup. I’ve never actually made a Melon Syrup so it sounded like fun. It was a pretty simple syrup to make so I thought to myself “Why not take it a step further and make Henry an original drink with said syrup?” (I kind of got a little carried away with the whole melon thing) So we re-edited this Patron only Crafting Cocktails episode to give you a sneak peek of some of what goes on on Patreon. So If you would like to see the full extended version of this episode on Crafting Cocktails and many more extra cocktail videos, give Patreon a look.
    To our new viewers and the ones that have been watching for years now, thanks for tuning in!
    Cheers!

    Really enjoyed seeing you figure out the drink as you went!
    Did you have to cut a flat section off the bottom of the cantaloupe to get it to sit on the table without rolling around?

    • @BarTalkCocktails
      @BarTalkCocktails  3 роки тому +3

      I didn’t need to cut off the bottom. It sat pretty flat on its own.

    Have never seen a cocktail made with cantaloupe before. I tried some straight cantaloupe juice and mixed it with some Kraken rum. It wasn’t terrible but I’m not good at figuring out mixtures and ratios like a professional such as yourself Bruce! Thanks for sharing your expertise! Always look forward to your videos! And you come up with the coolest names for your drinks! Melon Kalikimaka to you and yours also!

      I figure some nice “funky” rum would work best with cantaloupe, rather than a spiced rum.
