HEY FRIENDS! I simply wanted to point out something about the Agave syrup used in this video. In the Tommy's and Classic Margarita recipes , when I use Agave syrup, it's a 2:1 syrup by weight. So 500gr of agave nectar for 250 gr of water. But in the Cordial, it's the pure Agave nectar without dilution. Thanks for watching and have a great day! Cheers! P.S. Sefra was so proud of her move LOL
Just made your Classic Margarita and was blown away. Made a second thinking it may lose that initial uniqueness but nope, still amazing! Love your content!
I can't belive im drinking a good margarita right now! I never liked margaritas but today my mindset was changed! Your version is actually supper delicieus. Thanks for this mindchange.
Thanks so much. Would that be the same for your clarified Negroni with the Empress gin? Hoping to make a few pre batched clarified cocktails for Christmas with the family!
I bought it at Alambika in Montreal. They ship in Canada but if you are outside of Canada, I also linked some in my description. Such as Alambika’s website. Cheers
@Truffles On The Rocks Will the balance be off on your version if using Dry Curaçao? I love your versions of cocktails because they are really perfectly balanced but I fear the Cointreau.
Aaron, I PROMISE you it will be great with Curaçao and I share your opinion about Cointreau; it’s good for this famous pancake recipe (crêpes suzette) where I live, but Curaçao is the stuff I’d use for drinks every time and it’s not even close. Cheers!
Question about the orange saline solution: I weighed 1 gr of sea salt then added 10 gr of orange bitters, but the salt didn't dissolve completely. I ended up having to use about an ounce of bitters. Did I screw it up? Does my scale suck?
why use citric acid/ peels instead of lime juice? when clarifying other cocktails that would normally call for citrus, should i be considering citric acid instead of the juice?
Awesome! A little sad you didn’t say your famous “fine strain into your favourite cocktail coupe” haha Also, are Blanco and reposado pretty interchangeable in a margarita? Would you ever use anejo?
I like a crisp and green Blanco in my classic Margarita. Repo can always be used, the taste will be slightly different but it’ll work. I would use Anejo for a more aromatic Margarita. Maybe a riff on the classic to make it more “wintery” with spices or something
I never understood why SAQ’s selections were so different than the LCBO’s. Yes, they’re two different government entities, but come on, they’re right next door!

The cordial you used for the clear marg looks clearer than the bottle you poured the cordial into. It also zooms in (to where your cordial is out of view) when you go to add the cordial. Is it the same cordial? I want to know before I spend $80 making this

Great episode! I would love to try your clear version 🤩 Cheers!
Tommys Margarita is our FAVORITE!! Love the idea of orange bitter saline.
I love making Margarita! Great video! Thanks for sharing different versions!
Orange bitters saline! What a brilliant take.
Just made your Classic Margarita and was blown away. Made a second thinking it may lose that initial uniqueness but nope, still amazing! Love your content!
Oh wow! Thanks! Means a lot. Cheers 🥂

AWESOME!!! Cheers!
I love margaritas and Tommy's is a great one to build on :)
beautifully shot!!
Your video aesthetic makes my eyes happy
The man's got Food Network level skills. I'm jealous! 😋
Thanks man!
Definitely gonna make that orange lime cordial! Looks like a really good addition for n/a cocktails as well!
Definitely got my attention! Looks like a fun addition
Salted bitters a great idea 👌🏻👌🏻
I can't belive im drinking a good margarita right now! I never liked margaritas but today my mindset was changed! Your version is actually supper delicieus. Thanks for this mindchange.
Thank you so much! Really that’s what I do these vids! 🙏
Tried the classic version today and it was perfect! My new go to!
Thank you 🙏
They all look great 😋
I would love to see you making a clarified penicillin!
One of my favorites drinks! Will definitely try your classic version 🔥
And you're not all black in the video!😳🤣
@@MrJochiMorrison LOL...That was the first thought I had when I started the video
😆 sometimes i have wardrobe issues
You should make some videos on what are your favorite gin, whiskey, tequila to buy and why
Working on it 😜
Could you add the scale that you use for the saline solution to the list of tools ? Please !
I left it back in Canada and I don't remember what brand it was. But I found a new one here in France. Will try to find a link for you. Cheers!
How do you calculate the amount of acid and citrus peel to use for your cordials?
so i guess i am drinking margarita's this weekend
thanks @trufflesontherocks - would the clear version be fridge stable if pre-mixed all together? thanks!
Yes it is. It would even be stable at room temp but I prefer to keep it cole
Thanks so much. Would that be the same for your clarified Negroni with the Empress gin? Hoping to make a few pre batched clarified cocktails for Christmas with the family!
what ice do you use for shaking and stirring? clear ice homemade?
Quite frankly, I use what I have which is most of the time homemade clear ice.
@Truffles On The Rocks If I wanted to batch the clear version what kind of dilution would be best if served with ice cubes?
20%
When you said orange zest, I thought you meant zesting the orange and the lime, but using the peel looks much easier
Hey TOTR…where did you get the glass stopper glass crystal bottle that you have your agave syrup in?
I bought it at Alambika in Montreal. They ship in Canada but if you are outside of Canada, I also linked some in my description. Such as Alambika’s website. Cheers
@Truffles On The Rocks Will the balance be off on your version if using Dry Curaçao? I love your versions of cocktails because they are really perfectly balanced but I fear the Cointreau.
I've used both and although using Curacao won't give you the classic Margarita flavor, its super tasty and makes a damn good drink.
Aaron, I PROMISE you it will be great with Curaçao and I share your opinion about Cointreau; it’s good for this famous pancake recipe (crêpes suzette) where I live, but Curaçao is the stuff I’d use for drinks every time and it’s not even close. Cheers!
@@marvingreen7441 thanks for this reply I will need to batch this up before I go on vacation.
I'm almost disappointed that you didn't call any of them a "lazy" Margarita. 😂 Great video JF!
When are you going to do a Cosmo 3 ways?
I'd love to see his versions of that!
Today
@@TrufflesOnTheRocks I feel so heard. ❤️

Hum that's weird! I think it might be your scale the problem. Just measure 10 ml of bitters for 1 ml of salt then. It will be similar. Cheers!
why use citric acid/ peels instead of lime juice? when clarifying other cocktails that would normally call for citrus, should i be considering citric acid instead of the juice?
Not sure to understand the question: in this case I used citric and peels to mimic fresh lime juice, to have a clear look without clarifying it.
Fresh lime juice has a shelf life of about a day, so this seems like a great way to batch it and have ready in the fridge.
Where can I buy the glass/crystal shaker?
Cocktail Emporium in Toronto
Awesome! A little sad you didn’t say your famous “fine strain into your favourite cocktail coupe” haha
Also, are Blanco and reposado pretty interchangeable in a margarita? Would you ever use anejo?

You go to the said Next door and F the SAQ taxes. Cheers!

I've actually never heard of El jimador? How is it typically served?
Still need a pool??? 😂😂😂

Not sure to see what you mean. But I can assure you it’s the same cordial through the vid.
