1951 Everglades Collins Cocktail - Cocktails After Dark

[@SuperLQQK]

Exactly what is needed this summer. Always can count on Glen.

[@lh824]

Tempting for our 95°F weather but it's only 8:00 AM! Can't wait for 5:00 PM 😊

@@Ea-Nasir_Copper_Co So true, why didn't I thank of that?? LOL!! Now, to get the boss on board... 😇

[@benwhicker7215]

Hi Glenn im an Aussie, would love to see the Errol Flynn cocktail. Love ya stuff cheers

[@JonPRuff]

I actually already make this exact cocktail (but usually shaken with no soda). It's such a simple combination I figured it already existed but I hadn't seen it anywhere before.

[@timothypnolan]

It's a French 75. Normally has a splash of champagne

[@JonPRuff]

@@timothypnolan I'm pretty sure a French 75 isn't equal parts, and has simple syrup instead of a liqueur

[@timothypnolan]

Sour/ fancy sour. Fancy 75/ white sidecar. Whatever... the sour family is full of incest but you get the idea

[@lesliemoiseauthor]

I love the depth of your knowledge.

[@Forevertrue]

Thanks Man great vid. Love these old ones.

[@itatane]

I used to make something similar, never knew it had a name. I always preferred shaved ice, made it like a grown up slushy. By the way, Glen, have you ever been able to get your hands on Kyrö Gin from Finland? Ian McCollum did a spotlight on the distillery a year or two ago. It's barrel aged and might be something interesting for you. Thanks for the episode and cheers!

[@rabidsamfan]

Nice transition.

[@kozhevnikov]

Made it with tonic instead of soda water and it's like a better, more complex version of G&T, absolutely lovely.

[@rewdymeyer]

Almost like a gin-based margarita! Yum yum.

[@rlwalker2]

I'm always a non-gin person BUT if the gin flavor can be downplayed I'd be willing to give it a try. I used to enjoy Collins drinks. A friend of our family made us kids one for some occasion. He included some booze but kept it light so the other adults wouldn't flip. We loved it.

[@marcelthorsen]

Another great video and I’ve gotta add that these videos are about as refreshing as I’m sure those drinks are! I much prefer these cocktail videos to the grating cocktail content I see on the KZbin Stories or on TikTok.

[@smtpgirl]

The drink made with Dillon's gin looks like a Fresca on ice. Not a soda drinker, but Fresca is my favorite soda.

[@LikeOnATree]

So excited to make this this weekend!!

[@honthirty_]

"Let Jules stir!" Join the revolution.

[@ambla23]

Looks both tasty and refreshing!

[@GinJoe17]

Hey Glenn I just did my review of Dillion's gin loved it!! Salude

[@bitslammer]

LOL... "One week later." No worries, you didn't even age a day.

[@applegal3058]

Haha 😄

[@goldenboy5500]

my favorite summertime drink is called a The Scarlett O'Hara Cocktail 2 ounces Southern Comfort 1/2 ounce lime juice 2 to 4 ounces cranberry juice, to taste Lime wedge, for garnish I go with 6 to 8 oz of cranberry juice

[@IsaacIsaacIsaacson]

Errol Flynn is from my town, here in regional Australia. He's not particularly well remembered in his home town 🤣

[@SinaFarhat]

Nice! I looked up the Ted Saucier cocktail manual 'Bottom's Up book and he liked to show the semi naked ladies in various positions! It is done in a more artistic almost cartoony way so you sometimes have to guess if its a lady or a drink glass featuring a lady!

[@speakeasy_hann985]

amazing, i will give a try and using a big chunks of old ice more healthy for elderly lol, is that lemon super juice sir !? 😁

[@beecat4183]

Glen, what in the world is going on in the next recipe up in the book, regarding matchsticks and jumping???

[@heathersellars6531]

I know this without the club soda and it is called the Millinocket Lady. Try it, it's very good.

[@garlicgirl3149]

I guess I was wondering what made the gin different? L:ooks good though and will save for this coming summer.

[@agamemnom]

i wonder if the errol flynn resuscitator is an early version of or just a variation of the bloody mary as i think it was around in the 50's?

[@johanseinen8245]

Hello, greetings from the Netherlands! How does this compare to the blue gin fizz?? (without the egg-white)

[@retrofuturistic8]

I have a (cheap but not too cheap) triple sec left over from my daiquiri phase. I know a triple sec is not quite a curacao, but how do you think the flavor profile would be changed by using triple sec? Less orange-y?

[@JT-py9lv]

I've been on a kick lately. Anise flavored liquors & liqueurs. How do you feel abut them ?

[@jackadams1385]

Isn't cointreau a triple sec and not a curacao? not sure if it makes a difference to the recipe but i thought triple sec tends to be sweeter.

[@GlenAndFriendsCooking]

Cointreau is one of the original curaçao producers - in fact for many years ‘curaçao’ was on their label. At some point they removed it as a marketing move. All of the terms related to this particular group of liqueurs are marketing related and are unregulated - therefore have no real meaning. We did a tasting video of a dozen or so, (plus a lot of background research on the history) and found that todays producers don’t follow any of the original methods… except Cointreau.

[@lynnedriscoll9414]

Interested to know if anyone has tried the gin from Dunrobin- another Canadian gin.

[@jutulporten]

A Claddagh ring!

[@mikeparker3865]

looks more like a patio chugger. Where was this last week when I was cooking in the heat every day? Darn that missing cointreau.

[@stillvisionsmusic]

I picked up the unfiltered Dillon’s gin and it was weirdly unflavored by gin standards. Not to mention totally clear. Maybe an off batch?

[@jozbanjetekil2474]

do the James Bond drink next

[@GlenAndFriendsCooking]

You can’t - some of the ingredients are no longer made.

[@jamesellsworth9673]

My problem: to find good club soda. Yes, I do have an ISI system and cartridges, but good club soda is more than that.

[@ludingtonian584]

You changed two variables at once. There should have been four cocktails. Two with the same Cointreau but different gins, and two with the same gin and different Cointreaux. Still, it looks delicious regardless.

[@lowkey1969]

But then they'd have been drunk at the end, eh?

[@lowkey1969]

...sorry!

[@timothypnolan]

The thinking man's French 75

[@Lessdeth14]

Nope. Felt unbalanced.
