Saw this video randomly pop up in my RU-vid feed. Excellent video with an enjoyable tale regarding Ra's al Ghul, my second favorite villain from the Bat-verse (Deathstroke is my favorite). Went to Amazon and immediately purchased the book, and I am now subscribed to your channel. Thanks!
Hi, Dave! First off, I want to say that I follow your channel for some time now and I'm a huge fan! I do cocktails for fun, at home. So, I did make this one with vodka and butterfly pea extract for cocktails (because this is all we have here in Southeast Europe, Empress Gin is not available around here). It turned out quite well. I was thinking to top it with Sprite but I didn't. The color was amazing once you poure the lime juice+Cointreau over the already blueish vodka. Thank you for the recipe!
I made it w Empress gin and it was delicious! As you said, very gin forward but the Cointreau and lime add a lovely citrus tang without being too tart!
You summarised that story so dang well.. wow. Would have loved if you acted out Liam Neeson's part too.. those "particular set of skills" 😂 Delicious looking drink.. like a stunning gin margarita. P.S. - shake-smile cam getting better and better!
Been watching your videos for a good few weeks now new to cocktail making oh your drinks look so delicious & pretty 😍 I think I may end up developing an alcohol addicted if I don’t stop watching your videos 😂 just kidding, there amazing & you talk us through them so we’ll looking forward to lots more delicious videos 🤍🤍
The purple comes from the the gin which contains Butterfly Pea Flower Tea. This ingredient is the dark purple that changes color when citrus juice (lemon or lime) is added. You can use these flowers to infuse gin, vodka, or rum. Or you could make tea with it.
Nicholas, The original recipe would have been much lighter in colour, however you are correct. It would be to get the gradient and keep the original spirit strong. But you could shake all the ingredients together to make it easier.
That would depend on where you live and what is available. There is also H2 Craft Metamorphosis Indigo Gin. However if you cannot get that you can order some Butterfly pea flower tea and use it to infuse some of your favorite gin. That will give you the same effect.
