  • A little while ago someone posted that they wanted a video on Root cocktails and I thought that was a fantastic idea, so here one is. This video teaches my preferred versions of the six cocktails whose creation inspired the entire universe of cocktails we have today. Every serious bartender who has been studying cocktails for a while are familiar with the idea that there are Root cocktails, or cocktails which are not only a specific drink but gave birth to a category by lending their template to countless other drinks. I will often see someone in the comments saying something like this: "Oh this drinks is just a so and so cocktail with the sugar and spirit changed out." While this statement is totally true, it's also true that every cocktail in existence came out of one of the six in this video. The bartenders behind Death & Co. and Proprietor's LLC have recently Published a book called Cocktail Codex all about Root cocktails and everyone should give it a gander, it is a great book! Here's link:

    Thank you for this video. I am a newb and started my research about a year and a half ago. I fell in love with Charlie Baker, Jerry Thomas, Dale Degroff and Gary Regan and have been reading and practicing everything. I appreciated seeing you make these because, it shores up what I've been learning. You can't go somewhere new if you don't know where you've been. The history is as important to the drink as the flavor in my opinion. Again, thank you for your awesome channel and keep up the great work!!

      That is the amount of vermouth you should expect in a properly made martini. From there, as someone ordering one, you can then request the level of dryness and an experienced bartender will be able to tailor it to your preferences.

    Been drinking Sidecars since I first discovered them in France on a random vacation a decade ago. Through my broken French and his broken English the bartender assured me I’d love it. I did. You are correct that it’s a complicated drink to master. For every 10 of them I order in the states, at least 6 of them are “incorrectly” done. And thank you for including simple syrup - a critical omission by most bartenders that I have to ask be included when ordering. Great choice on the Pierre Ferrand combo as well. Super impressed. Cheers.

    • @charliesanders8719

    Hey Leandro, I love these compilation videos!
    I was wondering: Would you consider doing a video of different drinks that start with the same basic ingredients?
    For example, when I hosted the Super Bowl this year, I made Moscow Mules (for LA) and Cape Codders (for New England). Because they both use vodka and lime juice, I could mix up a batch of those two ingredients in a cobbler shaker, and then all I needed was ginger beer and cranberry juice to make the different drinks.
    Keep up the great work!

    I really enjoyed that video…the specific subtleties of those drinks were very well explained. Such as your comments on the un-dissolved sugar in the Old Fasshioned. Many might say it would be a flaw to have the sugar still in the glass at the end of the drink. Now it’s at least imho a special variation to be enjoyed. Also the emphasis on the coldness of ingredients for the martini and the hi ball are great pointers. I really enjoy your channel and the two way between you and your cameraman !!!

    Only quibble I'd argue is make mention that the sidecar is a daisy (margarita) and, like the daiquiri, is a standby archetype that lets you swap like with like for a lot of fun home experiments! Great callout on the martini's relationship with the Manhattan. Also beautiful old fashioned. I also always do the lemon + orange. had it once and never looked back.

      Waaaaay back when, orange bitters and sweet vermouth(if I recall correctly) were in the original martini recipe. I tried it and didn't care for it. I've basically settled on a few drops of Dolin's into Oxley gin. I like it with lemon instead of olives, and if I'm making them for people, I flame the peels because it looks cool and the smell is nice.

    Just wanted to let you know, I have been experimenting with these. Love the Brandy Flip, would be interesting with a Coffee Liquer. Old fashioned I am struggling with. Not really getting sugar til end will work on. My favorite is from another video, your whiskey sour with egg white. I only make one change. I use freshly squeezed lime juice instead of lemon juice because of personal taste preference. Thanks for the channel.

      For the old fashioned, use two sugar cubes and play around with how much you stir

      Use a syrup (demerara is best) instead of sugar. Once you have the syrup made, it's a lot easier (no muddling required) and dissolves better in the drink.

      @@electrichanoi7244 Interesting. Captain is a range of rums (including a spiced variant) in the UK. The original dark version has been around for decades, with the spiced being a more recent addition to this market (originally sold in the UK under the name "CJ Crocker Original American Spike" in the 90s, marketed as a bourbon-esque liqueur in the vein of Southern Comfort, when rum wasn't fashionable).

      Lots of different styles. I personally find Baccardi to be terrible and Cap. Morgan's only useful mixed with coke. Flor de Caña has been my favorite brand since I discovered it. The 7 year old is a good balance between cost and quality. The 4 year old has a lot sharper alcohol taste/smell.
