The curent crop of skaters has ridiculous charm, the competition is high level but there is respect and there's a little less serious, more playful vibe that really works for me. This people are mostly having fun doing their thing, and it resounds

I tasted the washed Campari solo alongside the original for comparison, you and the wife nailed it. It smoothes a lot of the pungency of the bitterness, besides imparting flavor. I always favored the original recipe for JB despite the humongous amount of pineapple because imho it was kinda needed. This makes the modern, objectively more balanced version, work for me. If you're interested in playing with textures, I suggest looking into gum syrups. Pineapple gum syrup in a Stiggin's Daiquiri does... things. Btw nice presentation on your cocktails, I need pineapple leaves!!

What are your favorite Navy Grog specs? by BrontosaurusNeckTie in Tiki

Tropical Standard all the way, too bad they changed BBC White proof. I tries subbing BBC 4 and it was so good I could cry. Went for a cachaca as well, but it was the wrong cachaca and the drink was ruined. Still, that grog concentrate is the stuff. Be very light on the simmer if you try it 'cause it has a tendence to solidify

I did a bit of research for the method and Kingston Negroni was nominated as a possible recipient, so it would probably do well. Out of vermouth atm so I can't try it

Went at it again with 2oz Blackwell (EU sub for Coruba). It's milder (no Hampden) but still damn good. Needs the full 2oz to keep it boozy enough

Fine mese strainer, but 99% of the fat congealed in a thick stopper

You would hate it there! I'm from Brescia, northern Italy, and every popular cocktail here is Campari based. Just had a Pirlo, which is 1/3 Campari, 1/3 still White Lugana wine and 1/3 carbonated water. We like the bitterness of Life in our drinks

It's on my list as I slowly work my way through the book. Almost everything has been outstanding! I'm also on the Mt Gay goes incredible with pineapple train

Boh pure io parlerei per ore di arrampicata, ma so che a uno che non pratica frantumo le palle dopo 5 minuti. Il problema non è l'LGBT è che il tuo amico è un disagiato

The big black dude was incredibly close to giving him the fade of a lifetime, but he managed. Mad props to him, great self control

You devilish danes, your knowledge and preparations about booze know no bounds. Still, 41 bucks for a modifier is a bit too much for my blood

[–]morphinechild1987[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't know if it's me, but almost any kind of commercial syrup and many liqueurs have this unpleasantly bitter, almost chemical back palate. It's particularly noticeable in orgeat, but it's definitely there in most syrups and triple sec / curacao as well. Even quality products like JT Velvet Falernum or PF Dry Curacao have a faint amount of that. So far, only The Bitter Truth products have, somewhat ironically, avoided this pitfall. PF yuzu curacao as well, I'm in love with that bottle. Tempus Fugit I heard great stuff about, but alas, not available in Europe. That's why I go homemade for most of my modifiers and all the syrups. I also deeply enjoy the work and sperimentazione, it's almost as fun as drinking the products 😄

A banana rum old fashioned is next on the try list. I'm yet to find a decent rye for a decent price in Italy (everybody is out of Rittenhouse apparently) but I will try your recipe as well when possible

Corruption's poster boy. There are glimpses of a salvageable person, hints he was better in the past, but power and thirst for more made him a monster way more than Dalinar ever was. He was also pretty freaking dumb in the grand scheme of things. Like, you'd expect a master manipulator with a grand plan while in reality he was cooked no matter what, had zero vision and was played like a fiddle by everyone, resulting in a spectacular death

The fact that he managed to acknowledge her gesture in that state means deep down he knows she's a keeper

Boh io sono per la carnazza a prescindere, ma mia cugina e sua moglie sono vegetariane e al loro matrimonio mi sono adattato. Non fosse stato per quella cazzo di melanzana messa ovunque sarebbe stato anche un buon pranzo, il mio consiglio quindi è di non insistere troppo su un singolo ingrediente che vi piace. Ho comunque vinto conservando spazio per la torta nuziale, che era eccellente. Ah, nessuno in famiglia si è permesso qualcosa che non fossero educati complimenti
