How to Make a Lemon Drop 

That’s great! I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it, and no problem! Thank YOU for watching and utilizing my video! 🙏🏾

Thank you so much! Yes, I very much so try to keep it as simple and organic as possible, so I thoroughly appreciate your observation and compliment! And peeling can be dangerous business at times 😂 Your comment means a lot to me, so thank you again, and cheers from Columbus, OH! 🥂🙏🏾

@@homecraftcocktails I agree. When people are trying too hard to be loaded with “personality” I find myself gritting my teeth and move on. Nice presentation.

@@lindaartz3297 trying too hard is definitely cringeworthy; I try to be myself at all times. Thank you for the kind words! 🙏🏾🍸

Yes, I try to give each and every cocktail’s backstory prior to showing how to make it! Thank you for subbing and watching the video! 🙏🏾🍸

Thank you! Circumference definitely didn’t seem wrong, but perimeter was the initial word I was trying to go for 😅 And yes, the drink itself is balanced when done correctly! But you do have your dive bars (and the like) that will over-sweeten it; same with daiquiris, margs, cosmos, etc.

@@homecraftcocktails yeah they probably use sour mix which is basically candy

@@steverocksyo exactly! And not the “true” properly-made sour mix, but the artificially-made, overly sweet stuff 🤢

Lol. This recipe is sweet.

Understand the struggle; dive bars will over-sweeten almost any cocktail, and it makes no sense! That’s why I don’t recommend ppl trying cocktails for the first time at dive bars, because it will give the wrong impression of how the drink is SUPPOSED to taste

I'm glad you enjoyed it -- thanks so much for watching!

Thanks so much! 🙏🏾 you don’t know how much that means to me!

Yes, I try to be informational with my videos to provide a bit of background on where the drink came from and why it came to be. I'm glad you enjoyed it, thanks so much for watching!

Thank you! Definitely was second guessing myself in the moment lol

Interesting thought, I wouldn't be opposed to trying that out at all!

No problem! Glad you liked it! Thank you for watching!

That they do!

Thank you! Cheers! 🍸

The already-minimal taste difference in the various brands of vodka is further dissipated when incorporating other ingredients. Outside of the cheapest of the cheapest Vodkas (I’m talking $5 cheap) which have a harsh ethanol burn, you will be very hard pressed to taste the difference in a cocktail whether using a $10 brand of Vodka or a $30 one. But to each his own! Regardless, thanks for the comment! 🙏🏾🍸

Don't use it.

@@sb5064 Brilliant response. Take you long to figure it out? Is that not obvious?

First off: great question! Triple Sec and Cointreau are both Orange Liqueurs. All Orange Liqueurs are, for the most part, entirely interchangeable! So if a recipe calls for Triple Sec, you can most definitely use Cointreau (or vice versa)! Same applies for Pierre Ferrand Dry Curaçao and Grand Marnier, which are also other popular orange liqueurs. Each liqueur will provide subtly different tasting notes; experiment with different ones to try and find one(s) that you like best (AND that fits within your budget, since it’s a very common ingredient and you’ll need to re-up once it runs out).
