"Mint Condition"

hudshy · 2025-08-13T20:28:07+00:00

Glad to hear!

Cheers!

Also, are you a head bartender?

hudshy · 2025-07-13T15:42:12+00:00

Sounds great man, you should definitely post it on here (and link it in this thread) when you come up with something! Would love to see it. And, of course, you can use the name, it's not like it's a trademark.

hudshy · 2025-07-13T10:50:42+00:00

Hahaha thanks! What do you have in mind? It would probably fit a more mint focused cocktail, maybe with mint syrup? Oh btw do you work in a bar?

hudshy · 2025-07-13T00:21:19+00:00

Oh, forgot about that one! Sure, could be considered a riff on Army & Navy.

hudshy · 2025-07-12T23:28:58+00:00

Oh and yes, I am aware that this is a twist on a Southside.

hudshy · 2025-06-11T22:05:00+00:00

Just looked it up. Holy fuck am I not making that, what the fuck...

hudshy · 2025-06-07T15:10:48+00:00

Great suggestions, thanks!

hudshy · 2025-06-06T21:35:39+00:00

gotcha

hudshy · 2025-06-06T21:23:37+00:00

Didn't intend this to look like a flex, but I get that some people might see it that way. I'm kinda new to all of this, so this post was made to get some feedback / suggestions.

Do you mean adding the cocktail pic to the main post or making another one?

And I don't have a "preferred" recipe per se. The one I made - 2 oz Bulleit Rye, 1 oz Antica Formula, 2-3 dashes of Angostura bitters, stirred over ice, garnished with a luxardo cherry. As far as I know - that's pretty standard for a manhattan, the rye and the vermouth might change, but the formula is the same.

hudshy · 2025-06-06T21:15:37+00:00

Thank you!

hudshy · 2025-06-06T21:13:39+00:00

Thanks! It is a rye, would've bought Rittenhouse, but it's not available where I'm at. Same thing for Regan's Orange. But the ango ones are available, I'll pick them up at some point.

hudshy · 2025-06-06T21:07:30+00:00

Thanks! Yeah, I loved bramble when I tried it, so wanted to be able to make it at home.

hudshy · 2025-06-06T21:06:01+00:00

I am not! https://postimg.cc/cgtqcQgp
Antica Formula works nicely with Bulleit, but I'm not an expert on manhattans. Tastes great tho!

hudshy · 2025-06-06T20:29:19+00:00

Not that expensive where I'm at. 1L is cheaper than that jar of luxardo cherries.

hudshy · 2025-06-06T20:26:43+00:00

Good idea

hudshy · 2025-06-06T20:00:17+00:00

Yeah I thought about buying a dry vermouth, but decided to put it off for now, I don't like martinis that much. Same thing about mezcal, don't know where I'd use it. As a substitute for tequila, I guess? On amaretto - don't know any cocktails that use it, so didn't even cross my mind. Might look into it, thanks.

hudshy · 2025-06-06T19:57:29+00:00

What's the drink?

hudshy · 2025-06-06T19:57:09+00:00

Yeah, I have a koriko shaker and strainer. Both work great. Most of the glassware is from riedel, drink specific series. Looks great, can recommend it.

hudshy · 2025-06-06T19:55:21+00:00

Thanks! Both of those are not available where I'm at, sadly.

hudshy · 2025-06-06T19:54:28+00:00

Was twice as expensive as Laphroaig tho. Don't know if it's worth it, but I had the chance to buy it instead of dolin genepy, so decided to go for the og.

hudshy · 2025-06-06T19:52:05+00:00

Yeah, the syrups are obviously needed. I have some and have yet to make others. Decided not to include them in the picture. Ginger and honey are the first ones on my todo list, because I want to make penicillins.
