Lillet Blanc! I make Lillet Blanc (or Rose) shards on a baking sheet and use them to garnish some of my cocktails! Fun to snack on :)

[@TheBestcommentor]

@@nel9429 that sounds so good!

[@seansampson7886]

Have you had Pixy Sticks before? Could be fun to see some dehydrated flavor combinations in that spirit. Blend with your magic combination of acids, and it could make for a great garnish.

I could imagine amaretto dust would do great sprinkled over an espresso martini or Dominicana

Still the most underrated cocktail channel on KZbin. I was baffled when I saw that the subscriber count was under 100k and even then I feel 500k wouldn’t even be surprising due to how much effort is put into everything. Can’t wait to see this channel grow! Happy birthday

"Hello, Friends of Cocktails..." my day gets just a little bit brighter. Keep up the amazing work. We LOVE what you're doing!

Not sure if it's intentional, but I love the small details like how Kevin's glass is exactly in the middle of his tie and the screen. If perfection is lots of little things done well, I guess Cocktail Time comes close. I appreciate the love and effort you all put into this channel, it shows. And despite knowing I'll never attempting these creative and brilliant creations, I can't help but watch them through. Thank you, and happy 2 years!

My favorite moment with Cocktail time wasn't in a video. I was traveling through Slovenia and I reached out in hopes to meet Kevin. He actually responded! Unfortunately I wasn't able to make it to his city, but he made a great recommendation for nice place to get a drink in Ljubljana. Thank you for taking a personal interest in your viewers and for taking the time to respond. It's obvious that you genuinely care about your craft and your fans. This is why I share your channel as often as I meet people who love cocktails...which is often. Here's to many more videos, views, likes, and subscriptions. God bless you all. 🙏

[@KevinKos]

With pleasure, Ernest! So happy that I helped a bit. Next time we see each other in Maribor 😉

[@beebobox]

For me, it was the 3rd time i watched the video about superjuices, and it inspired me to make a go at it, ordered the citrus and malic acid, bought a smaller blender. Tried making it and it worked wonderfully, will be using this from now on. To save on money and be nice to the environment by making better use out of each fruit and thus needing less of it imported to my island nation of iceland. p.s. happy birthday Sašo

Your version definitely caught my attention and I will definitely give it a try.

New subscriber! Made this tonight. Very tasty!! Ended up adding 1/4 oz Campari to the mix. The original was too sweet for my tastes. Might try without the honey next time. The Campari dust was totally worth making too! Made mine in the air fryer, took about 2.5 hrs on 180f. Love the smoke too. Adds a great complexity to the whole thing. Thanks for sharing this!!

I've made this for family and friends and they all rave about it. I tell them that Cocktail Time is the place to go. If you're ever in the U.S., and looking for a home bar to make some new cocktails at, please let me know.

Hello, I'm just curious on what ratio you use for your saline solution? And do you just boil water with salt to make it? Thank you.

[@patximartel]

While it's true that saline solution enhances sweet, sour and umami flavors, it actually nullifies bitter flavors. That's why some people add salt to their coffee.

[@liamford680]

Could you do the same thing you did with the campari to say, Amaretto?

Hi there Could I put Campari to dehydrator and not to the oven? Cheers!

[@KevinKos]

Yes

[@blakeandtim937]

I literally just bought a bottle of Campari to test this out with. It is worth noting that alcohol breaks down at 172 degrees Fahrenheit and even that doesn't "burn" it all off. It isn't strictly NA but is used in such small amounts that it's probably like having a glass of orange juice or something.

Awesome! Thank you for the information!
