Gin Sling, Old-School Classic How-To

[LESS INFO] 7 VIEWS | ADDED 23:45:32 01/11/13
The Gin Sling is a reflection of a time when alcohol was much more rough and tumble than it is today. First recorded definition of a Sling was from "History of New Sweden", published in 1759, as translated from Swedish into English: "Long-sup or sling was one half water and one half rum with sugar in it to taste." Today, we re-create the gin sling as it used to be and providing tasting notes on something that you probably would not find non a bar menu today. Recipe: 2 oz. Dry Gin, 1 oz. Water, 1 tsp Sugar.

The Kraken's Blood, a shooter that brings a strong jagermeister flavor. The red bull isn't a serious big deal in the flavor, but the medicinal profile comes on strong as well. This isn't a great "cocktail" as a sipper as it has a bit of a sour red bull citrus flavor when sipped slowly and can come on a bit intense. This is basically a jager and red bull with, maybe, a hint of spiced rum but so little it maybe will not make a difference to a typical consumer. Basically, this is a bunch in the eye sockets in flavor. Recipe: 1/2 oz. Kraken Spiced Rum, 1/2 oz. Jagermeister, 1 oz. Red Bull

The Ramos Gin Fizz, a classic cocktail from the 1888 invented by Henry C. Ramos. You may also refer to it as a New Orleans Fizz if you would like, but at the end of the day this classic breakfast cocktail brings some flavors not usually seen within a cocktail. Tasting notes really come down to the flavor of a citrus heavy yogurt. However, we are not talking about an overly sweet yogurt infused with citrus, but more of a plain white yogurt with striking citrus notes. Alcohol Intensity: 2.0 Recipe: 2 oz. Gin, 1/2 oz. Simple Syrup, 1/2 oz. Lemon Juice, 1/2 oz. Lime Juice, 2 Drops Orange Blossom Water, 2 Drops Vanilla Extract, 2 oz. Heavy Cream, Egg white, topped with club soda.

Rum Runners Winter Cocktail, How-To

[LESS INFO] 11 VIEWS | ADDED 18:08:56 01/03/13
The Rum Runners Winter can be built absolutely wrong, which is how we start the video. When you accidentally pickup the 151 you end up with a ball of fire in your mouth. But, when you build the drink correctly you get proper tasting notes. The tasting notes include a very non-sweet "watery" cocktail without any big body with a bit of vanilla, spicy notes that has an aroma of eggnog. Perhaps a colder version of a hot toddy like drink. Try this drink warm, what do you think? Question of the day, do you like your cocktails warmed, hot or cold? Alcohol Intensity: 6.5 Recipe: 2 oz. Dark Rum, 1 oz. Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice, 1/4 oz. Fresh Lemon Juice, Dash of Vanilla Extract, Pinch of Cinnamon, Pinch of Cloves, Pinch of Cayenne Pepper

Happy New Year, Thanks For The Support

[LESS INFO] 13 VIEWS | ADDED 17:02:52 12/31/12
Thanks for all the support this year, it was a great year. We also wanted to send out a special thanks to Crown Royal and their #PassTheCrown contest which won us and one of our fans a Reed & Barton Tapered Soho Decanter Set, which we have given out to one of our special fans: Bob & Ellie who have supported our show for years and continue to show their great support. Common Man Cocktails has some of the best and brightest fans in the world. Unlike many Internet-based shows which get all assortments of childish and screwball viewers, CMC gets the cream of the crop, the quality viewer whom interacts, socializes and assists us in creating great works of video each and every week. We have the fans that show up for our live streams to chat together and enjoy each others company as a community. To build a community around a small cocktail show is much more than even we could imagine, it is what many producers would call "success." It does not come down to sheer numbers of viewers or subscribers but the quality of the audience you have--there is no value to me having a million subscribers if that brings with it a million douchebags. I would take a small group of top quality viewers over a million drones any day of the week and continue to support that idea given our mature audience of that does nothing but help us grow and succeed. Thanks again for the great year and for the streamy nomination support.

The Nut Kicker Shooter, the shot that will no doubt kick you right in the nut. The tasting notes are quite simple, it's pretty much awful and tastes like something you may have regurgitated at some point in time. Or, perhaps just something you imagine as being fairly awful. Plus, it gave Doug the hiccups. Recipe: 1/2 oz. Jack Daniels, 1/2 oz. Sour Apple Pucker, 1/2 oz. Jagermeister, 1/4 oz. Aquavit
