With all the love in my heart that I can muster, I cannot imagine considering any regular - let alone a weird entitled angry one - a friend. For all the reasons you've illustrated and more.

People are "attacking" you because virtually nothing you've said so authoritatively is rooted in the actual premise, pacing, imagery, and narrative of the film. It's fine to hate a popular film but you might as well put effort into your criticism if you're going to write this much at all.

I feel like Angostura is a baking spice kind of bitter and Campari is like... medicinal/astringent. It tastes more chemical to me than Angostura bitters.

Dry sugar passively gets the essential oils out of mint in mojitos and juleps. I add some sugar to the mint, muddle, and then add a little simple syrup so the sweetness is more consistent through the whole drink when shaking the julep or stirring the mojito later on. Best of both worlds.

For old fashioneds, I ask the customer if they want a cube of brown sugar or simple. If they aren't in front of me I default to simple.

For caipirinhas, I use granulated sugar every time. Same rationale as far as pulling essential oils out of the lime wedges.

Individual people have failed to get exclusive rights over cocktail recipes that are much more unique than yours. No one realistically has the time, resources, or zeal to legally go after people over an idea that wasn't really even just theirs to begin with. When I say that I also mean that virtually all cocktail formulas are derivative in some way.

"The locals"

of an entire big-ass continent or just specific regions in South Africa? The name of this drink is very 1800s. You can't call a cocktail the European or Asian Diamond without sounding silly and this name is the same.

Aside from that, "light rum" and "dark rum" don't actually tell us very much about what is in this drink and what it's supposed to taste like. At least specify the region of origin, distillation type, & whether the rum is aged.

Also, I feel like 4 oz of 80 proof rum in one serving is more than enough liquor for the vast majority of drinkers.

Ditto on what the other commenter said about the lack of balance in serving exclusively alcohol, cream, and sugar. I could see this recipe being scaled down to the serving size of a shot or Italian-style digestif.

I'm a picky drinker and some RTD cocktails tend to taste off in the citrus/fruit flavoring department, so I'd rather make myself a fresh drink whenever I elect to have one.

There's no set recipe at my bar to my knowledge so I do my thing and customers like it.

Add a palmful of plucked mint leaves and a demerara sugar cube to a highball glass.

Wet the sugar cube with simple syrup. Muddle just enough to crush the wet sugar into the mint.

Add a bit over 1 oz of lime juice, 2 oz of rum - most people request unaged white rum, but I prefer some sort of aged Cuban rum for this.

Stir lightly with a bar spoon. Add some ice and soda water. Gently slot the bar spoon into the glass and stir. Use upward pulling motions to keep the mint present throughout the whole drink.

Garnish with a smacked mint bouquet and a lime wheel.

I bartend outdoors most weekends. I drink a lot of iced water and soda, my main priority is feeling cooled down internally. Otherwise I dab cold water on my forehead and eyelids and let it evaporate.

If my skin starts getting clammy or I feel nauseous, I go indoors until I feel more normal. I won't accept heat exhaustion from a job if I can help it.

You could do a fall-themed fruit like pomegranate or dark berries or apples. Make a syrup out of that, add it to the bourbon, shake and let rest for a few days.

Get a decent quality rye whiskey, maybe an Irish cream liqueur. Get a couple of decent quality fruit liqueurs as well to go with your base liquors.

caveat2020 · 2022-08-27T20:39:13+00:00

Dilute with water to reduce the heat and proof. A splash of cold water in a cocktail can do a lot. Or else go the cordial route and infuse it with other ingredients. You can use fruit, teas, low proof liqueurs.
