[Improvised] Azalea

⛳️🏌🏻 It’s time we make the official drink of @themasters… but better…

The original Azalea recipe calls for lemonade but I wanted to reimagine this drink as a true sour and use some higher end ingredients like maple grenadine and a real maraschino cherry. The key here is to add a bit more dilution to the build so make sure to crack the ice to get more length to the drink itself.

Cheers y’all.

Zombie

Hey at least I can admit when I f**k up, right?

In an effort to do a bit more research, I want to share the incredible history behind an iconic tiki cocktail: the zombie. Created by Don the Beachcomber (and NOT Trader Vic — thanks to everyone who pointed that out). This classic tiki cocktail is as full of history as it is rum. I hope y’all found this video as informative as I did.

Now… who wants to know the recipe to Don’s Mix? Should I make a zombie in the next video? Comment below.

Cheers y’all.

Winter Julep

A julep in December? Yes please.

Together with my friends at @vineyardvines, we’re making a drink before we head to a holiday party. Who says a julep is only a spring cocktail, this one combines the traditional with some winter elements to make a fun, refreshing and seasonal variation on a classic.

We’re getting a little dressed up for this one too, so make sure to stay till the end to see how I can transform this casual/cozy combination to something that is a bit more elevated and easy to pull off.

Happy holidays! Cheers y’all.

Shark Attack

It’s my favorite time of the year: #SharkWeek 🦈

Well… between that and @tales - I’m here in New Orleans for the week just a couple blocks away from where the original cocktail originated, The Tropical Isle (@thetropicalisle). After a 2 year hiatus, #TOTC2022 is back in full force! I’m excited to get out there and see my industry peeps and use this time as a way to learn and network. If you’re here in NOLA this week, make sure to hit me up! Hope to run into y’all!

Twelve Mile Limit

So I can’t be the only one that gets lost down the rabbit hole that is @youtube.

My favorite genre of videos are any of those that I can learn from. I recently was looking for some inspiration for a Repeal Day cocktail and stumbled across @how2drink. If you haven’t checked out Greg’s channel, you absolutely should - its educational and super entertaining.
Anyways, I made this pre-Prohibition cocktail based on his recipe and you can bet it won’t be the last one I make from his channel - I’ll post the link in my stories #videographygoals
