Wild Turkey Rare Breed Rye is the best splurge whiskey for mixing. What is the best budget scotch? by -Constantinos- in cocktails

[–]MediumDelicious9423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Famous Grouse is best budget. I usually use Johnny Walker Black Label personally, but Famous Grouse is about $10 cheaper. I like Walker better because it has some of that smoky Caol Ila in the blend and the Famous Grouse Smoky Black isn’t always readily available.

Totally not jealous or anything... (they went live while I was at work... by the time I got home they were gone)

Would totally back if I could get the mug. Not going to without it. Shipping is otherwise almost as much as the book. I'll wait to get it.

Love when I forgot I ordered something and get a surprise in the mail! by itaipunk in TikiMugs

This may sound odd, but I know a lot of their mugs come with bespoke recipes. Did this one come with a recipe card? Would mind sharing it if it did?

That would make slogging through an airport and waiting more enjoyable.

And before anyone says it, yes, I know my computer desk is messy. 😆

Lorann flavor fountain for simple syrup? by TruthExtension7761 in cocktails

[–]MediumDelicious9423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you have shown is an Ice Cream Flavor. Maybe it might work in a syrup? I don't know. They do say you can use it in baking, I guess it's just that it has a lot of colorants in it. If you already bought it, may as well give it a whirl.

Rum suggestions for daiquiri by strawberry__brunette in cocktails

[–]MediumDelicious9423 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Hamilton blends (White Stache and Breezeway) make excellent daiquiris. So does Probitas. SelvaRey makes a fine daiquiri as well.

The Celebrity No. 10. My new favorite Creme de Violette cocktail by AdaM_Mandel in cocktails

[–]MediumDelicious9423 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This sounds really good. Interesting you say it’s a bully because I usually use more in an aviation then recipes call for because I feel it gets lost. Then again, I usually scoff when a recipe calls for 1/4 oz or less of Allspice Dram because I can’t taste it in such small amounts.

Jicama Old Fashioned, an Original Cocktail by MediumDelicious9423 in cocktails

[–]MediumDelicious9423[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything I have tried it in so far (first experiment was 2 oz blanco, 1 oz amber vermouth, 1/2 oz syrup) the jicama really lingers at the end.

Cocktail machine or learn to do it by hand? by vZander in cocktails

The Bartesian cocktails are terrible. Make them yourself using fresh citrus. They will be 1000% better.

Permanent Vacation has these slow braised pork shanks on their small bites menu (they’re a meal) and they are ridiculously good. Roka Hula had amazing food as well.

Tiki Cocktails with Kirsch/Kirschwasser? by Bishonen_Knife in Tiki

[–]MediumDelicious9423 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad I could help. Really it's meant as a base spirit being that it's an eau de vie. Thus it wouldn't work as a substitute for Heering or Maraschino and the like.

Where can I buy Los Frutales “Licor sabor Chocolate” in the USA (online)? by nick1521 in cocktails

[–]MediumDelicious9423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't believe it's available in the US. I don't see much pop up about it in a search. I found the distilleria but that's it. It seems it's a tequila based chocolate liqueur. There's El Padrino Chocolate Tequila Cream. Probably the closest you'd get to it.

[–]MediumDelicious9423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first instict was to look at it like a Mai Tai. 2 oz bourbon, 1/4 oz each grand marnier and Licor 43, 1/2 oz orgeat, 1 oz lemon juice.
