    Jul 24 2024
    The Jungle Bird is a cocktail you need to be familiar with, especially if you struggle with that bottle of Campari that’s staring at you from your bar cart. This tiki drink makes excellent use of our bitter friend in a way that will please even the most hateful of Campari haters – and we feel bad for the haters (please don’t hate). Uncle Brad goes into the surprising origins of the Jungle Bird and, of course, gives us the real deal recipe while Jules hits us with a Kentucky twist. Stick around for the excellent tip inspired by @aberryx TIP: What are some rimmers and garnishes you can make on your own?

    Who doesn’t love ice cream and booze mixed together? I’ll tell ya who, Jules but that’s ok, she has a great recipe that doesn’t use dairy. In this episode we cover the classic Pink Squirrel and Jules’ dairy-free Squirrely Girl. They are nutty and delicious. Uncle Brad gives us the scoop on the history behind the drink and together we tackle Mary Kate Schuster’s question, “What are your favorite drinks/recs for new home cocktail makers to try as they get into cocktails?” Pink Squirrel – the real way We use vanilla ice cream here, not heavy cream. When it comes to ice cream, don’t use the yellow stuff, it messes up the color. Use white.

    Don’t sleep on the Brooklyn cocktail! This riff on a Manhattan is a classic that deserves some attention. However, there is a small problem to overcome.

    Ep. 74: Spilling the tea – Long Island Iced Tea
    Jun 5 2024
    If there was ever a drink with a reputation, this is definitely it. Uncle Brad and Jules get into making a proper Long Island and Jules puts a twist on it with Jamacian Rum, Mint, and Bourbon... I mean, why not? Uncle B gives us the history behind the drink, and there’s a little drama to share. Then Brad takes on a great question from Nathan Batley (all the way from Winchester, UK). He’s been reading up on the old cocktail books like The Savoy Cocktail Book and Cafe Royal Cocktail book and asks, “could you outline the different measurements used like glass, wine glass, liqueur glass, etc (also talk about the ratios and what that means)?” We got you covered Nathan... mostly. Long Island Ice Tea Recipie (that actually tastes good) Chill your Collins glass In your shaker add: ½ oz Vodka ½ oz London dry gin ½ oz Tequila blanco ½ oz White Rum ½ oz Cointreau ½ oz Simple syrup ¾ oz Lemon juice (fresh squeeze) 3 – 4 dash Angostura bitters Shake for 15 – 20 seconds Double strain, over ice, into your Collins glass Add Coca Cola to top it off Give it a stir with your bar spoon Garnish with lemon wheel (on the rim or slide down the inside of your glass) Long Islands baby brother, Boozy Palmer In your shaker add: 3/4 oz Lemon Juice 3/4 oz Mint Syrup ¾ oz Jamaican rum 1 oz Bourbon ½ oz orange curacao shake Top with 2-3 oz chilled black tea & 2 oz cola Strain into collins glass Garnish with lemon slice TIP: How to interpret measurements in old cocktail books The Art of Drinking IG: @theartofdrinkingpodcast Jules IG: @join_jules TikTok: @join_jules Website: joinjules.com Brad IG: @favorite_uncle_brad This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast IG: @reddrockmusic www.reddrockmusic.com Learn more about your ad choices.
