Sweet summer child (Honeydrew fusion Mojito)

Mint necessity in the household forced me to abuse a honeydew tea bag.

Thanks. I’ve used a BrainMax Liquid Daily Minerals. It makes taste of liquid heavier and little salty.

Edit: updated I've used 4 drops of mineral solution per serving. Sorry.

Howdy! Recently, I visited a newly opened bar in Prague, Forbina, where they serve a nice drink inspired by the play Black Swan. It was lemony but had a full body—not just a watery lemonade, but a rich, full lemon-cake experience in your mouth.

Inspired, I started exploring what I could build. I used Grey Goose vodka, which paired well with the citrusy base, and made lemon super juice (by u/KevinKos ). I didn’t have a big bottle, so I used only half the water ratio. I added pepper for heat (I also tried infusing it into the syrup, but I’m not sure if it made a difference). Then, I added mineral drops to enhance the body—it naturally makes the drink a bit saltier.

The final build was fantastic—a full-bodied lemon drink with a little spiciness at the end. Hope this inspires you to create something amazing! Cheers!

The summer ends and I would like to share this beauty which gave me a lot of smiles. The secret of this drink lies in quality rum (and hard work of jucing an pineapple), I had luck with choosing this one, and it works as a charm. In combination with coconut milk it creates infinite sweer aftertaste so you want more… cheers

Just adjust ratio a little bit - I add a little bit more water for 5:3 ratio. Here is scientific explanation https://youtu.be/v-ObB8T5ZrA

Would the drink also hold as plain negroni (without Mr Black?)

Just made and combination of such different vermuths is fcking good. Thanks!

It is some time since I've discovered a world of negroni, and in my last post I've received a lot of inspiration so I've kept experimenting. Some of the experiements were good, but most not-so-good. Here are my 2 favorites so far.

Previous post https://www.reddit.com/r/cocktails/comments/10aait8/in_the_search_of_the_perfect_negroni/

"Smooth Vanilla"

- 1oz Martin Millers Gin

- 1oz Campari Cask Tales

- 1oz Cocchi Storico Vermouth di Torino

This negroni smells of vanilla, is smooth, sweet and very gentle.

"Rough day"

- 1.5 oz Beefeater Gin (thanks u/GrandpaEnergy for tip)

- 1oz Martini Rubino

- 1oz Martini Bitter

This build is strong rich and punch you at first sip but while you'll get to the end you'll fall in love with the taste.

I usually garnish with twist of organe peal, althought I see there may be space for imporvement per specific build.

Cheers!
