What are your thoughts on Champagne being mangled into cocktails? Or does it just give you a headache like me?

Hi Greg. I was wondering if you take requests for video ideas, if not, no harm done. I am asking if you would be able to concote a cocktail of my own creation, called a "Dead Man's Glory" and put it in a video and tell me what you think of it. The recipe is below : 1 oz black absinthe 1 1/2 oz cognac 2 1/2 oz vodka It is all shaken over ice and then served in a short tumbler with the same ice Thank you

@ESCJayne 2 года назад

I can't see the glass jigger on the Gear page, are you able to share where it's from?

@SknowingWolf 2 года назад

With the 1898-ish drink, it made me giggle because it feels like every time Greg makes a drink with a sugar cube in it, it just becomes another exercise in proving that typically a barspoon of simple is a better option lol. There's always "the line" : It's not sweet enough, I don't think the sugar cube is dissolving. Maybe that would actually be a cool idea for an episode, Greg. Look up a variety of drinks that call for sugar cubes and see which ones it actually works in, and which ones are better served with just some simple? I don't know how much there is to go off of there but eh? Could be something.

@smugboi_ 2 года назад

That's an interesting idea I'd like to see

@LanguagesWithAndrew 2 года назад

I've made a ton of Old Fashioned's and have yet to use a sugar cube, always just simple (preferably made with demerara sugar).

@SknowingWolf 2 года назад

@@LanguagesWithAndrew exactly, and that cocktail was my first thought, like I can't personally imagine a scenario where simple syrup wouldn't be the better option in a cold drink. The temperature, and especially if there's ice, is just going to stop the cube from dissolving. It would be interesting to see though if there are some circumstances (aside from the obvious answer of hot drinks) that I haven't considered.

@johnhoang930 2 года назад

I enjoyed that he essentially took it back to the first drink.

@Apocagen 2 года назад

So I think the issue on this one is that he says "We need a dry champagne" and grabs a Brut. Brut has even less sugar than an extra dry champagne. While it seems like he did want something drier than the first recipe I think Greg went way too dry. A Dry or even an Extra Dry champagne would have been a much better choice than a brut.

Just like any other profession you will get more and more experienced but it never hurts to pick up some tips from places like this. A good bartender makes a huge difference to a bar, some places have just a few drinks they always serve while others make custom drinks and experiment and those are always more fun to visit. :) I have notice that things that are fun are way faster to master then boring stuff.

The classic ur-shampeen cocktail is the Kir Royale, which is just sparkling wine and creme de cassis. So ubiquitous in France that a lot of places will include one free with a meal.

@michaelgeary9370 2 года назад

I've been making a champagne cocktail occasionally for a couple years now that'd I highly recommend. 1oz fresh lemon juice 3/4 oz Cointreau 3/4 oz Yellow Chartreuse 2oz Cognac *shaken* *strained* topped with ~4oz champagne, a couple dashes of ango(to taste), and a lemon twist/expression It has the type of dryness that makes you keep drinking, and complexity for miles. Great for NYE!

@p.l.g3190 2 года назад

I tried and enjoyed the 1885-ish champagne cocktail. I wound up making my own variation on it, which is probably not terribly creative, but here it is: I substituted orange Oleo saccharum for the simple syrup and orange bitters for the Angostura. To me, it tasted a lot like what a mimosa wants to be but never can attain.

@dreadgamereviews252 2 года назад

You know, I’m a little surprised you didn’t do a French 75, even if it was super quick footage from an older episode. That’s a super approachable classic that’s always a crowd pleaser. Edit: Ignore me, I just read the pinned comment. I’ll shut up now.

@fabrisseterbrugghe8567 2 года назад

The different fermentation methods mean that Asti doesn't trigger my migraines and true methode champenoise does. I'd have gone with a seche champagne for the first cocktail and a demi-sec for the second. My favorite drink order of all time is from the movie Love Affair: "Two champagne cocktails with pink champagne ... [because] Life should be bubbly, like pink champagne."

@RighteousMane 2 года назад

regarding the prince of Wales cocktail: I think if you're looking to really taste the rye in it, the Old Forester rye wouldn't be my first pick. I love it, but it is a delicate, floral rye that doesn't stand out as well as some of the spicier options. I dunno, it's an intriguing idea though, might be worth experimenting! I might try it with the Ol Fo and some Knob Creek or something and see how they stack up...

@adderous 2 года назад

If you're already experimenting, Rittenhouse bonded might be fun. I don't have high hopes that it'd play nice in a more subtle cocktail, but it might be pretty good and at worst you end up with a weird rye highball.

@axolotllan 2 года назад

Also I love that in the video sectioning it's called prince of whales like it's an ocean prince cocktail.

Ah, how fortunate! I was just wondering about Champagne cocktails, and I’m so glad to see an episode on them! Considering how many there are, though, I would love to see another, perhaps featuring Greg’s take on a Bellini or a French ‘75. :) In any event, wonderful episode! Loved how chill it was. Certainly makes for a nice watch when paired with the old “Sabering Champagne Bottles” vid from a long ways back.

Concerning the '98 Cocktail, it does seem kinda ridiculous to stir just a half ounce of Cognac for one serving, but I can imagine for a party, preparing multiple glasses and sugar cubes for your guests and mixing several servings at once, pouring a serving into every glass down the line and then topping with champagne (or prosecco, if you prefer that like me) down the line while your guests enjoy the show of the bubbles.

It contains dry curacao, Angostura and Peychaud's bitters, and a topping of champagne, but it adds a shot of R.L. Seale Rum. It's my go-to for something dry with a boozy kick yet bitter and spiced with some orange tones.

We had some prosecco that we discovered in the garage that had been in a wine box for about three years. We chilled it last night and, as you would imagine, it was not that good. But I made the first cocktail in this video with the less-than-ideal prosecco, and it was quite good. I would make that drink again anytime they have cheap champaign on sale, which may be right about now, for all the bottles that didn't sell for new years. Thanks, Greg. I've really enjoyed your videos since discovering them a few months ago, and I've learned a lot. They remind me of the old Emeril Legasse cooking shows that taught me so much about cooking. They demystified and simplified cooking so you could feel comfortable learning some basic techniques, and gain the confidence to learn more complex creations and begin creating new ones yourself. "Not rocket science here, we're just cooking."
