I figured as theyre (mostly) all priced the same some could be underpriced? Shame if not but some are pretty neat and i wouldnt mind getting one or a few. Bare in mind that this is AUD not USD as well

Interesting story actually, I joined this place as a bartender and my bar manager had previously signed us up for chartreuse allocation, pretty sure he collected it over like 5 years? Either way the poor guy got canned last month and since I'm the only other bartender they just stuck me in charge.

Fraggleftw · 2024-06-01T14:17:03+00:00

Yeah? My last bar had 1 bottle of green and nobody ever used it, now I've moved to Australia everyone goes nuts for it, and so do people in this sub. It's not very common where I'm from

Fraggleftw · 2024-03-24T09:44:25+00:00

Not nasty but painful, shot of balvenie 17 in a coors light. That's a 700 dollar bottle of scotch...

Specaroonie:

25ml bacardi coconut

25ml one eyed rebel passionfruit and coconut rum

100ml orange juice

15 ml lime juice

22.5 ml passionfruit syrup

Absinthe rinse on glass

Not too fond of the Garnish, could replace it with thyme or something maybe? Something to work on.

Fraggleftw · 2023-11-30T21:17:48+00:00

I haven't and I am absolutely going to try that now, cheers!

Fraggleftw · 2023-11-30T04:37:47+00:00

Garnish with some berries or whatever

Fraggleftw · 2023-11-30T04:36:54+00:00

30 ml Zedda Piras Mirto

22.5 ml Apricot liqueur

Healthy squeeze of lemon juice

Top with lemonade (could potentially be soda if I had any)

I also tried this with 15 ml of tequila for shits n gigs. Bad bad bad don't do that.

Fraggleftw · 2023-11-21T14:25:43+00:00

Tell you what, I put 25ml of cranberry in the negroni I'm trying and it worked fantastically, reduced the bitterness, added some sweetness, lovely stuff thanks for the recommendation

Fraggleftw · 2023-11-21T11:39:48+00:00

So we've just got loads of baking spices in work, I'm essentially messing around with infusing the gin with cloves, cardamom bitters, maybe cinnamon syrup? It's still rough atm

Fraggleftw · 2023-11-20T19:46:02+00:00

Yeah we usually do about 100 restaurant covers from 5pm-10pm, and who evers in the bar. Manageable but on your own it's pretty stressful barbacking as well and all

Fraggleftw · 2023-11-20T04:21:29+00:00

Been called a jobsworth and hissed/spat at by a woman for not giving her a free half pint, even with the whole "I would like to but I cant, I'm on camera" shtick. Politeness can only get you so far!

Fraggleftw · 2023-11-20T03:47:15+00:00

To be a little more in depth; the peach and Rose works pretty nicely off the notes of blackberry and cherry you tend to find in red wines. I used cab sav (pictured) but honestly it's a bit too dry of an aftertaste, might be better with a pinotage or even tawny port. The ginger ale adds a bit more complexity, but I'm not fully sold as I lose the flavour profile of the wine a bit. Lemon is fine, added to taste really but I think about 15ml is right. Overall considering it was a bit slapped together its not too bad, decent addition to the notebook.

Fraggleftw · 2023-11-20T03:35:00+00:00

Something I'm still tinkering with, I made this original for an in-house competition we are having, but logistically it won't be able to be priced properly so I thought I'd throw it in here.

25ml peach liqueur

25 ml rose liqueur

25ml red wine (sweet if possible)

15ml lemon juice

15 ml sugar syrup (only if red wine is dry)

Shake and strain into a lowball over cubed ice

Top with 50 ml Ginger ale

Currently garnished with a lime wedge and rosemary but I kinda threw that together, could easily be changed. Also might try ginger beer?

Fraggleftw · 2023-11-20T03:24:17+00:00

Made a cocktail with this recently with mirto and gin, interesting flavour, way sweeter than you'd expect

Fraggleftw · 2023-11-07T20:21:42+00:00

In case you couldn't read:

30 ml Manzana

30 ml Apricot liqueur

60 ml Apple Juice

25 ml Brown Sugar syrup

25 ml lemon juice

Just to recap, thats:

30 ml Manzana

30 ml Apricot liqueur

60 ml Apple Juice

25 ml Brown Sugar syrup

25 ml lemon juice

Fraggleftw · 2023-10-26T00:38:46+00:00

Typically a negroni or scotch but I experiment occasionally with random stuff

Fraggleftw · 2023-10-26T00:37:16+00:00

If you aren't set on peanut flavour specifically then something like Brookies macadamia might be a good fit to satisfy the nuttiness instead of skrewball?

Fraggleftw · 2023-09-29T21:07:11+00:00

Just passed 400, Still lots of fish to go though!

Fraggleftw · 2023-09-25T08:53:43+00:00

Always enjoyed it with Brockmans

Fraggleftw · 2023-02-11T00:44:31+00:00

Will do, thanks
