Hi, I am from Mexico and there a difrent way to make a Paloma, 3 oz grapefruit juice (freshly squeeze) 2 oz silver tequila, 1/2 oz lemon and 1/2 agave syrup, shake and serve on ice, and add 1 oz of mineral water, stir and enjoy.
Thankyou from Michigan, this will help get us through winter snow storms and summer camping! The perfect tequila recipe collection. Love the speed and pace of your videos. No BS, just instructions and information. Brilliant. I look forward to visiting after lockdown.

Best cocktail channel on RU-vid... in my opinion at least! Super easy cocktails, nothing too complicated, no booze you couldn't pick up at some store in your vicinity and filmed in a really appealing way! Keep up the good work pls :) I'm pretty sure I'm not alone in saying this really helps some amateur bartenders recreate tasty drinks at home!
They are also made different tequila is boiled with blue agave mescal is the heart of the agave thrown into a fire pit covered with the cut up parts of the plant and smoked
I like the idea of the mezcal old fashioned. I've done my own twist on the old fashioned before by making a Margarita old fashioned (50ml tequila, 5-15ml Cointreau, 2-3 dashed angastora or orange bitters and a lime twist for garnish) you should try it at some point
Thanks for this new video ! I'm waiting for all of your video but particulary for the next one! Finally the whisky Cocktail video ! thanks a lot ! I hope See you in London ! Hugo, France
It is true that tequila its a kind of mezcal since both are made of agave, but tequila is made only of "agave tequilana" also known as "agave azul", instead mezcal is accepted to be made of a larger variety of agave. The regions where tequila is made is smaller than mezcal. This both facts contribute to making mezcal a richer liquor, because its flavor may be very different from place to place, you can have a fresh taste, smoked, a bit sweet, dry o fruity, and usually it brings the plants flavour, also the smell adds another dimension. It is standard for mezcal to have higher alcohol content than tequila. Tequila can be really good by its own, but mezcal goes beyond. (Sorry for the bad english. Nice touch on the "paloma" and thanks for your videos.)
Hi! Great video :). Do you think you could make a video on liqueur-based cocktails? I mean, after dinner cocktails where the most prevalent flavour comes from a liqueur :D. And maybe a video on prohibition era cocktails too! :D. Or another one on most popular British cocktails! It's interesting to see how something that is uncommon in a part of the world can be pretty well-known somewhere else :O
As per usual, a very interesting episode. My previous expeditions into the Tequila world have been less refined so to speak... Now I am ready to have another go. Also, cudos that you keep evolving your videos, both in mood and camera work. I sub to a few drink/cocktail channels but yours is really top notch. Looking forward to the next whiskey episode! Cheers!
I like adding 1 to 2 oz of fresh Ruby Red grapefruit juice and top with grapefruit soda. Use equal amounts of tequila and fresh grapefruit juice. I want to try using grapefruit liqueur in place of fresh grapefruit juice. maybe 1/2 oz?
Great video! I use agave syrup in my old fashioned instead of sugar. Would love to try the mezcal cocktails. I tried a mezcal tonic a little while ago, it was incredible!
Great video! I made the mezcal old fashioned. I really dig the use of the chocolate bitters, but I found the proportions to be far too sweet for my palate. For me, a full 2 oz is the ticket, and maybe I would only do .25 oz of agave. Maybe my agave is sweeter than yours? In any case, thanks for making the video, and keep up the good work!
Mezcal is much more complicated, remember there are different types of agaves with different ages of maturity. And the process to make mezcal is very different from tequila, it is smokier. And the process and culture for the smokiness is awesome.
Hi there! Thanks for making and sharing these. You talk about checking for dilution - when do you notice too much water in the drink - that is how many times have you got to try the drink until you know you have the right dilution? And what to do to correct over dilution? Start another drink?
Love these videos, I get so many great ideas watching them. Wanted to ask though, isn't it proper to put a dash of salt in a paloma? I have seen it done with and without.
+Ken Biggs Thanks for you comment, glad we inspire you! The salt dash is all a matter of taste - all of the cocktails we make have slight variations but the videos show our preferred versions. Thanks for watching Ken!
Why Triple Sec rather than a more sophisticated orange liqueur? Why simple syrup rather than agave? The latter I could pretty well provide a thought - but not so certain re former.
drum loop from Funkadelic album"Funkadelic", just sped up. listen to the snare, but more importantly the snaps... I'm a recovering trainspotter TA Trainspotter Anonymous LOL -DIRTISOUNDS
Guys this is the recipe of the cocktail: 40ml of gin, 30ml of vodka, 15ml of lime juice, 15ml of mandarin juice, 15ml of triple sec, 15ml of simple syrup, 15ml of kiwi syrup, 15ml of peach syrup, 1 slice of ginger, 4 leaf of peppermint or mint, 2 leaf of rosemary. So in a Boston shaker pour the lime and mandarin juice, the simple syrup, kiwi syrup and the peach syrup, the 4 peppermint leaf and the slice of ginger with the middle mix up all the ingredients then pour all the spirits (gin, vodka, triple sec) shake it with ice. In a highball glass put the 2 leaf of rosemary and cover with crushed ice pour the cocktail into the glass using double strainer. Please if you can do it an try it! it will be very important to me, it's a good cocktail and very refreshing with new flavors
