• How to Make White Russ...
On this episode of Vladflix I made 3 different Gin Tonic cocktails. Home Version, Pro Bartender with large ice, premium gin and third version is "rainbow Gin Tonic" that you can possibly find in proper mixology cocktail bars.
I used Ingredients
Bluecoat gin
Angelica Gin (from Iceland)
Hendricks Gin ( my favorite)
and I highly recommend to use Q Mixers for your tonic choice

[@lorenzogiovannibotti]

Do an ice making tutorial on different cubes and stuff and getting clear ice etc

[@VladSlickBartender]

Will do! Love working with clear ice

Vlad SlickBartender Absolutely a legend mate appreciate it so so much

[@clutchy2269]

i would also love to see how do you make these kinds of clear ice :)

[@jacobverner321]

CluTchNass i bet you just use distilled water

[@krioulai]

Jacob Verner no, theres a little more to it

[@brainrottedindividual]

love that layering technique with the citrus slices and icecubes. for hendricks gin and tonic cucumber is a good garnish. if you are a completionist you can add rose leaves, but those might be overpowering. personally i hate preparing cucumber for garnish, but it always looks really nice. at our bar we do lemon slices for tanqueray, cucumber for hendricks and grapefruit zest or wedge for monkey 47 gin & tonics. cheers from hamburg

[@BPFACTS88]

that's the wrong way to do it :( I like Hendricks gin tonic without tonic and any garnish

[@albertsign1166]

@@BPFACTS88 so just Hendricks with ice?

[@yearginclarke]

@@albertsign1166 Drink it straight from the bottle, preferably in a paper bag, "bum style". No glassware needed.

[@leanu6531]

For Tanqueray in my place we use lime slices, for Bombay we use lemon, for Hendricks is cucumber, pink gin is grapefruit and portobello same,

[@yearginclarke]

@@leanu6531 Lime pairs nicely with Tanqueray.

[@ravvyj]

I love the 3rd Gin & Tonic you made! Great idea, and the presentation is flawless!! I will try this one soon!

[@eduardofabian8577]

In Brazil we usually use the lemon juice and put some spices in the gin tonic, like star anise and hibisco, this kind of spice gives a unique taste

[@KJfreshh69]

Dude you gotta be a millionaire bartender. You make things no one else I’ve ever seen! You got some hella artistic skills man. No bars or restaurants here in Tennessee does drinks like this. No clear ice, no presentation. Just cloudy ice in a plastic cup thrown together is all we get

[@VladSlickBartender]

Thanks 😊

Not yelling for the metal straw but surely yelling for the lime on Hendricks gin ! Cucumber my dear child !!

[@thekickingwolf5115]

I dont drink cocktails, but I cant stop watching! Might have to start mixing and drinking

[@Thomas-dp8eb]

Last one is a really cool idea, I even prepared a couple of glases before hand and but them in the freezer with ice and fruit, and just took them out and poored in the drink when I wanted to serve it

[@paragjawale9689]

good idea

[@leonardodruscovich2131]

"Pro Gin Tonic" *proceeds to throw in an iceberg, lime and smashes the bubbles out of the tonic water*

[@mpbiggame1010]

I seriously got triggered when I saw the amount of ice our friend here uses in so many of his cocktails. What's the point? I think I'd feel scammed if I got served something like that at a bar :D

[@slydesigns9691]

That's why you can always ask for less ice or no ice to swap out for a chilled glass.

[@94djcab]

@@mpbiggame1010 There's actually few reasons for using ice. First, indeed, fill the space. the ratio alcohol/soft drink is already good, if I were to fill your glass completely by respecting the ratio, you would be drunk after the second one. If I add too much soft drink, you will basically drink juice with a spin of alcohol. Glass is important also to simply dilute a bit your drink, depending on which one, and of course, leaving it chill. Ice also serves as a decoration. In the pro version it feels like there is a lot of ice, but if it was smaller cubes or shredded, it would take way less space and you would probably feel less triggered. Of course there are also drinks without ice, but usually the soft drink amount is more important or the ratio is respected but you get ~3oz drink. Theres's also of course stronger cocktails without ice (Espresso Martini, which is 1oz of Vodka, 1oz coffee liquor and 1oz espresso) but you won't get 5 of them. Besides, yes, you can also not enjoy that much ice and ask for less, but usually, unless the guy making you the cocktail is an amateur/incapable, you will get a decent and equilibrated drink

[@siegbert_schnoesel]

@@mpbiggame1010 using less ice will water down the drink. more ice melts slower

[@mpbiggame1010]

@@94djcab fair points, thanks for taking your time and replying! An interesting insight... though ultimately it seems like a purely preferential element Guess next time im at a bar ill ask for LESS ice 😂

Oh layering frozen fruit is so cool! That's something I might mess around with when I make my next G&T, I made some clear ice I've sealed away a little while ago and I might as well put it to good use

[@VladSlickBartender]

That Generic Canadian Really hope you will enjoy it! Thanks 😊

[@Vanq22114]

I have absolutely no interest in drinking or making cocktails, but this is still fascinating, partially due to Vlad's incredible presentation skills.

[@SkyBlueKangaroo]

These drinks look fabulous, lots of work goes into the presentation. But there’s no point using a super premium gin, which you describe as ‘super tasty’ if you’re going to dilute it 2:1 with tonic, and flavoured tonic at that. Good gin is fine. Save the premium gin for a bone dry martini.

[@thewingsfactory626]

the second one is just extra work for no reason, but the third one is damn cool. And easier as well. and simple yet sophisticated. Love it

Wow, this looks delicious! I would make the Hendrick's version with cucumber though. It really brings the drink alive and makes it feel like you're drinking fresh, tasty air. You should also try the award winning Napue G&T with Napue gin, some nice tonic water, a twig of rosemary and frozen cranberries. Yummy! :)

You are a cocktails wizard Vlad !

[@hrens123]

I'm pretty sure you know your thing way better than i do but honestly i cannot imagine a gin tonic without cucumbers. couple days ago i made some gin tonics for my friends from a recipee i completely invented: took some basil and mint. into the shaker, smash 'em. put some lime cubes on top. smash 'em! cover with ice, pour in the gin. shake! glasses filled with ice, each glass has 3 slices of cucumber. pour the gin, top with tonic. it was so good people were drooling.

[@Utilisateurpasvalide]

I love my GinTos ! Sometimes I use cucumber slices or little cubes of peaches! It’s delicious!.. Will try the 3rd one for sure!

[@mmweh1321]

ahh was a bit hard to see my beloved Hendricks mixed with lime, but good and simple ideas to garnish

[@xSTTS]

the whole thing with the ice reminded me of that episode of unbreakable kimmy schmidt in which she dates a rich guy and for her birthday party he shows up with "artisanal frozen water" , loved the video vlad😌👍🏽

[@VladSlickBartender]

THANKSSSS!!! Now I really need to watch that episode 😂

[@user-zy2jp7cc3n]

Best video on this topic and almost important details thank you so much for this video 🤗

[@1andonlyMiro]

Whenever I make gin tonics at home, I use a more expensive gin. I mean, I only have some citrus fruit for it (I'm not a fan of cranberries or rosemary), the gin and the tonic so it's one of the very few areas where I can make it taste the best within my abilities. Hendricks or Napue (Kyrö gin) is usually my gin of choice but since there are great Gin distilleries in Finland I switch it up every now and then.

[@vonbieberstein01]

FeverTree tonic is outstanding as well

what I love about the gin and tonic, martini and negroni, is that you can pretty much invest in better ingredients without having to change the 'recipe' (ratios/mixology territory) for the perfect drink. if you like gin lol

[@lucamilone7631]

Instead of cutting the ice with a simple knife you can use a special knife made of a super heat conductor material. It cuts the ice very very quickly.

As a Gin connoisseur, if you sent me the third monstrosity I’d send it back! The garnish is supposed to enhance the flavours of the gin, not overwhelm them….

If you cut the orange a bit to the end side and not in the middle, you don't need to use the cookie cutter to get the right size. And you even keep the orange peel intact.
