The Queen's Park Swizzle is a cocktail that should be MORE famous than it is. It originated at the Queen's Park Hotel in Port of Spain in Trinidad and Tobago and harkens back a type of drink that even pre-dates the cocktail! It's named after a very special tool... AND, I give you my own twist on the cocktail. Let's make the Swizzle famous!

I had my first QPS at Sunken Harbor last month and it blew my mind how something so simple could be so good. I agree, I would take it over a mojito 10 times out of 10!

@DirtyHairy01 8 месяцев назад

You riff is seriously genius! I’ll be making it this weekend! 🥳👍

Leandro, thanks for sharing your QPS spec and more importantly thanks for sharing the riff you have created after much trial and error. We all have our riffs on the classics that are fine tuned to our palates. Great to see the classic spec side-by-side with your riff for a change of pace. The video format is terrific.

Thanks for the video. I love the QPS. I like also the old cuban as an alternative to mojito. Looking forward to try you riff.

Great video. It stands along with other content creators spreading the word about this drink. However, I think all of these recent QPS videos are making a mistake in declaring that this drink is "better" than a Mojito. In my experience, this claim doesn't stand up because the QPS and Mojito are two different drinks that do two different things. And this stems from some misunderstandings about what a Mojito is and is not. Specifically, a Mojito is a Collins. The base spirit is light rum, the citrus is lime, the mint element is added as flavoring, and it is to be served long over cubed or cracked ice with enough room left in the glass to be topped with an amount of soda resulting in some effervescence. A Mojito properly made this way is then to be consumed while still alive and singing, that is, before the soda's effervescence fizzes out, quickly. We can now see the crucial difference: a QPS wants to be consumed slowly, and the crushed ice allows for this, as the drink results in an evolution wherein the dilution from the ice and the slow incorporation of the bitters takes place. There is also no soda water doing any fizzing because a QPS is essentially a play on the classic punch formula, not at all a member of the Collins family. All this considered, I think it's a mistake to pit the Mojito against the QPS and declare one "better" than the other. They are both phenomenal cocktails that do their respective things incredibly well, but different in both terms of execution and consumption. Cheers!

Nice to see you team up with Mr. Fernandez 👏 i really like his Paloma with Aperol in it 👌 ive yet to try these cocktails in your video, so i will have to soon. I made an Enzoni last night for the first time, wow very good drink, credit to Steve the bartender 😁

@ericyardley9348 8 месяцев назад

This is a great drink. Whether it's better then a blackberry mojito or not is a hard call but I do love the QPS!

@matthaught4707 8 месяцев назад

I've been making mojitos with funky Jamaican rum for years, I never thought to add Angustura. I'll have to give that a try.

@bhouser9981 8 месяцев назад

Nice

@dukebuck 8 месяцев назад

Better than a Mojito?!? I'm coming at you... ....to agree with you.

@lewismaclean8849 8 месяцев назад

Both drinks look incredible, definitely going to try and find both kinds of rums and bitters. Keep up the amazing videos. Would also love to see you do a continuation on the zombie cocktail video, (would’ve been awesome on Halloween.) and a video showcasing variations on the Long Island ice tea. Keep up the incredible work Leandro.

@jynxmacnicole4912 8 месяцев назад

Why are people so mad in these comments? If someone like Leandro says its better than a mojito in his opinion, why wouldn't trigger curiosity & interest instead? I wanna try this

@hagun6535 8 месяцев назад

Just picked up some rum from a local distillery, I'll have to try this, but lighter on the simple syrup.

@jayclement17 8 месяцев назад

Delicious! I will have a Queen’s Park again. :-)

@ljtinney 8 месяцев назад

I would agree. Better than a Mojito.

@DatsWhatHeSaid 7 месяцев назад

"You don't want to bruise it, if you bruise the mint you'll let out some vegetable flavors that you don't want in your cocktail" - 4:29 ..proceeds to absolutely obliterate the mint leaves with his swizzle stick 🤣😅

@D0rk4L 8 месяцев назад

What are some potential subs for the Angostura rum in your riff? I can’t find that rum locally. I love the QPS (and totally agree with the QPS > Mojito argument having formerly loved that drink as well) so I want to try the riff. Orange, chocolate and Ango sounds like an amazing flavor combination.

@christians318 8 месяцев назад

I love the Queens Park Swizzle! Thanks for this great riff! I´ll try tonight. What Orange Liqueur have you used? I can`t find this bottle in Germany. Do you think a normal Triple Sec would work?

@daphnisetchloe 8 месяцев назад

ur a genius

@dennman37 8 месяцев назад

Whenever someone is in the mood for a mojito I make them this instead. I see it as an upgraded version of the classic Mojito. Most people agree when they taste it!

@roundup1253 8 месяцев назад

What’s the name of the tin shaker, looks solid and probably nice grip

@hanzosbm1 8 месяцев назад

Is it orange bitters or the aromatic one?

@carlordonez7009 8 месяцев назад

I literally brought my own Lewis bag to my last job several nights so that when people asked for a whim I could just make them queens park swizzles. They were always a hit! Side Question: As an aspiring creator and financially struggling bartender I really hope to get my content as strong as creators like yourself and others that have found a stable modicum of success. My question is: Did you start making content/ bar videos while still bartending? How long was it until you made the full switch? Thanks if you have the time to answer. Love the work and long-form videos.

@carlordonez7009 8 месяцев назад

Also I’m excited to try your riff! It sounds delicious

It is better than a mojito (de gustibus). And, falernum > simple in this drink, IMO.

@pbr-streetgang 8 месяцев назад

Better than a Mojito…i can’t talk to you for a week!

@captainfyeah 8 месяцев назад

the only difference is angostura?

@numanuma20 8 месяцев назад

I though you where supposed to used older aged Demerara rum.

@nathancope8842 8 месяцев назад

You can use any rum you like. If you like the way it taste's you have made it correctly. Personally I make mine with el dorado 12 and it's a 10 out of 10!!

@RayN.RuizRodriguez-wx5ub 5 месяцев назад

Es una copia del mojito....solo cambiaron el ron...porque la receta original del mojito llevaba angostura para equilibrar el dulzor de la azúcar de caña de cuba...yo tengo manuscritos de la época, soy barman profesional en España, soy cubano y amantw del buen beber...ese cóctel se inventó en 1985 en Trinidad y Tobago y ya te digo...se cambió el ron añejo blanco por el de esa isla...lo demás es historia..un saludo bro...

@TheEducatedBarfly 5 месяцев назад

No quiero complicar tu teoría, pero el ron original utilizado fue ron demerara de Guyana, no ron de Trinidad.

@RayN.RuizRodriguez-wx5ub 5 месяцев назад

@@TheEducatedBarfly no puedes aunque quieras bro....da igual el origen del ron mientras no sea el cubano...y no es mi teoría, es historia...yo solo la estudio y conozco....igual coincido en que es un buen cóctel..no pasa nada...saludos

@danielroberts9466 8 месяцев назад

Dude stop finger banging the ice. As a fellow bartender that’s a number one rule. Use a smaller ice scoop or tilt the container on an angle

what's the general opinion about bacardi white rum? Because i think its very overrated, too expensive, flavorless and... just a bad option? Am i alone?

@blakebarrilleaux8073 8 месяцев назад

The QPS is and has always been better than a mojito. And so much prettier.

@user-yq8gb9xo5f 8 месяцев назад

*cough cough* any other content creators *cough cough* yeah, greg from how to drink featured it in a video 3 days ago and said it was better and more complex than the mojito, so maybe you´re the "other content creator" *cough cough* and give greg some credit *cough cough*

@TheEducatedBarfly 8 месяцев назад

nice. We Filmed this video last month so has no idea greg was planning on doing it. But great minds you know...
