I’m waiting for your bar book to come out. This is the most insightful personal bar class I have found. You are what makes youTube great!!

[@BehindtheBar]

This is so lovely to hear, thank you!

[@jennyj8575]

Behind the Bar is it serious? You have a bartending book coming out? I need that 😍

[@mattmclellan123]

Could not agree more. Just brilliantly explained

[@52bison09]

You can add me to the waiting for your book list.

[@cassidysettles7222]

When is this book coming out??

[@rokkimaize7333]

"It's not just them being wankers for once." 😂😂😂 She got jokes!

[@BehindtheBar]

😇

[@jeemoon1626]

She is not wrong lol

[@simonfairall5122]

Don’t think she was joking 🙃

[@sirclarkmarz]

Bravo, captivated all the way through couldn't turn away !

[@ronwilhite3687]

Thanks for all the valuable information! I love learning new things! This mixology stuff is so much fun!

[@theodorecongdon9861]

Love your simple and elegant description of the Negroni, undeniably one of the greats.

[@tanialuciahiggs3695]

Amazing! Thank you for a beautiful detailed class!

[@ohheyyola5416]

Best cocktail content on KZbin. Going through every episode is a good way to spend a Sunday with a mai tai

[@fobigdrums]

I’m in the US and I was drinking a highball when I started this video. I feel simultaneously stereotyped and validated.

[@BehindtheBar]

Hahaha excellent.

[@hangar21us]

I really love your channel ! Thanks for the recipes !, you are amazing Cara!

[@BehindtheBar]

So glad you’re enjoying pal 😊

[@allyhewitt1300]

Great vid as always. I am a chef, and I can confirm that all my guys love this after a service. Love from Ayrshire!

[@eduardmorales4895]

I loved the way you explained every element that goes into this drink!! You make me a believer. Thank You 😉🥃

[@NikiaLemaire]

Yes, please show us more cool variations! You’re a great tour guide through the world of classics - thank you!

[@michaelmoore2591]

I have just found this channel what a great channel this is! Informative fun couldn’t ask for anything more. Your Accent is an added bonus

[@BehindtheBar]

Haha thank you! You should check out the subtitles video if you haven’t already, KZbin isn’t too sure about my accent...!

[@youssefal-saleem9556]

How amazing your channel, can't describe how much i enjoy it. Your videos so helpful that's what i'm really looking for, wish to learn every thing and do it myself.. love you so much 💙

[@BehindtheBar]

So glad you’re enjoying them Youssef!

[@simonezanacchizani1999]

Nice...nice! Congratulations by an italian colleague...finally someone who's respecting the drinking culture without being fake and pretentious.

[@BehindtheBar]

That’s so lovely to hear, I’m glad you liked it 😊 🇮🇹

[@davidbundesen5867]

Thanks for teaching me how to do the orange twist. I literally didn’t know. And I love seeing those oils come out of the orange peel. I love this drink

[@BehindtheBar]

🍊 💦 haha!

[@DrinkInDigital]

Incredibly clear and well explained! An example to all of us cocktail channels!

[@BehindtheBar]

Aw thanks pal!

[@TheJamk75]

What a great channel I’ve been making cocktails during the lockdown but I find this channel one one the best !! Great work !

[@BehindtheBar]

Thanks pal, so glad it’s been useful for you!

[@jn712]

Great tutorial, can't wait to try it out. Thanks

[@nicee_guys]

I love there narrative, the voiceover as well as the pauses between starting new threads! That is a good vlog !

[@BehindtheBar]

Thank you!

[@wolfgangkeim6892]

Excellent cocktail, by far my favorite!

[@sharonensor7471]

Excellent vid. I've always wanted to taste a Negroni and this tutorial has really impressed me. Thank you.

[@justinssleeyt]

Love these videos. Keep them coming!

[@BehindtheBar]

Thanks Justin!

[@sameerb]

Thank you! Lovely video. Did NOT know about mixing the ice, rather than the drink. Will look forward to my next Negroni!

[@RebeccaJensenRunBosco]

I like that you’ve added twists to the end of this one!

[@BehindtheBar]

I always like to give some variations because one cocktail is hardly ever enough...haha

[@sergiogonzalez-yf1fg]

Hi! Great video!!! Love that you added the history of the drink! Keep up the Great work!!! Cheers 🥃

[@BehindtheBar]

Thank you! I love getting in to the story telling side of things 😊

[@meowmix119]

My favorite cocktail! Looking forward to trying the Lillet Blanc variant.

[@MrVampireBill]

Can’t get enough of these videos.

[@Barprints]

Love her explanations...and her accent!

[@michaels6307]

Really enjoyed this, like a personalised cocktail class! Will be trying my own negroni for sure

[@BehindtheBar]

Thanks Michael, I've been wondering how I should title all these episodes and you've just given me the best idea. The Negroni Masterclass !! Thanks for the inspiration.

[@moovieman693]

Ahhh, the triangle. Thanks for the lesson. Will remember that going forward. Now I see why particular ingredients were added to the drinks I made.

[@BehindtheBar]

All about the triangle! Haha

[@modularcuriosity]

Campari is such a challenging flavor for many people. But wow, it's really grown on me, especially on a hot summer day.

[@BehindtheBar]

Definitely, it gets a bit addictive once you’re in to it haha

[@johnnyxmusic]

A Campari and soda is quite refreshing and goes down easily.

[@nickynicknico]

Fantastic! Thanks for the video!

[@user-wu5sz4qd6f]

First time watching. Great and easy instructions. The short historical context is perfect.

[@BehindtheBar]

Thanks pal!

[@bobshepler]

I agree with the equal portions. I use Carpano Antica Formula and I add a few dashes of cocoa bitters for a little something extra. Delicious!

[@jimjohnson1285]

I can't wait to try and make this I'm definitely getting the vermouth

[@johng6950]

I love that you add that the best ratio of ingredients is that which you prefer the most....takes some of the pressure off for those starting from scratch. Everything's presented so clearly with zero pretension. Small detail but I like that you didn't edit around the part where it wasn't just right on the first try and you had to adjust; it shows that it's an iterative process and not an exact science. :) These are so interesting to watch even though I rarely drink myself lol

[@BehindtheBar]

So glad you’re enjoying it pal, that’s exactly what we like to do- make it approachable and fun. It’s funny when people are like ‘do you ever not like the cocktail when you taste it’ and I’m like...I have definitely forgotten the lemon juice or whatever in the middle of a busy service, it happens to everyone!

[@kirker23]

Well Slap My Wrist and Call Me Debra....Now I know. Love the history of the drinks! Looks very tasty. I am trying this one. Thank you Sweets!

[@johnhenrybussey]

Loved this video. A great explanation!

[@BehindtheBar]

Thanks pal!

[@PappyfromtheKeys]

It is great to learn the history of our favorite libations as well as how to make them.....properly! Thank you!!

[@TheArmourersBench]

Loving these videos, fast becoming one of my favourite cocktail channels

[@BehindtheBar]

Thanks pal, that means a lot 🙏

[@DaveCalx]

Agree. The BM and Negroni are amazing, and +1 for sneaking a "wankers" in.

[@ktallen3064]

Thanks for posting these drink mixs

[@BehindtheBar]

No problem pal, thanks for watching!

[@geophatinus2980]

Just tried one of these the other night for the first time. It is my new favorite!

Yay! It’s a slippery slope…haha kzbin.info/www/bejne/omPcgJiaqL1mmpY

[@ppp0911]

Love and subscribed to your videos as they have some history lesson.🎉🎉🎉

[@dann5396]

Realized after starting the video that I had run out of gin. Pivoted with the Boulevardier, and it's f'n delicious. Thanks for the quick variations at the end!!

[@BehindtheBar]

Strong pivot!

[@chrisriehl1696]

I made this after i saw your vid. Such a good drink.👍🏼👍🏼

[@turbozayas]

You’re awesome Cara!

[@cynthiaclark5965]

This is an excellent channel and I'm learning lots. I had a challenge finding high quality vermouth and bought Cinzano. Making a cocktail in the evening is really creating a treat in this time of social distancing. You and your guests are wonderful.

[@BehindtheBar]

I’m so glad to hear that Cynthia! It’s definitely important to treat yourself with small luxuries at the moment 😊. Cinzano is great, really versatile!

[@cckmanofsteel2393]

are you still alive? how many boosters have you had?

[@joseraul65]

Love the history, editing, and the recipe

[@BehindtheBar]

Thank you!

[@AugustoVPhotography]

I just discovered this channel via this fantastic video recommendation. I know a lot about the Negroni and it's history and twists since this is one of my favourite drinks to have. And still this video was so interesting and pleasurable to watch! Compact, informative and smooth presentation. Thumbs-up and +1 subscription!!

[@BehindtheBar]

Thanks so much pal, glad you enjoyed!

[@jacksotiriou]

excellent episode Cara!

[@BehindtheBar]

Thanks Jack! Hope you and the family are well 😊

[@mkh8076]

yum, my favorite. Cheers!

[@stephenkapuscinski5637]

One drink I can't wait to try and I love the ice ball👍👍

[@DaveIngelson]

Just discovered your channel. Love it. Keep up the great work! Mixing myself a delicious Negroni with Spanish Vermuth (Yzaguirre Reserva) , Campari, and Beefeater now.

[@BehindtheBar]

That sounds delicious! Big fan of lighter, more savoury Spanish vermouth in Negroni although I haven’t tried that one in particular. So glad you’re enjoying the channel 😊

[@maximusdecimus4017]

Best ever bartender - competent, brilliant tutorials, love hearing the history of the drink and about the spirit brands. Last but not least - I love your Scottish accent 😃

[@BehindtheBar]

Thanks Maximus!

[@praveengogia555]

Awesome channel. Super content and very pleasant to watch n learn. Wonder how I missed it thus far. Great work. Keep going ... Cheers!

[@BehindtheBar]

Thanks so much Praveen, glad you’ve found us now!

[@Bladesmobile]

Been watching Steve the bartender or the educated barfly for a while now But I think I’ve found my one stop channel for all things cocktail. So informative and detailed but without sounding wanky

[@BehindtheBar]

Thanks so much pal, exactly what we’re aiming for!

[@notbornagainbornright1935]

Amazing!!! Very helpful!!

[@acendagrowth]

Hey there Bar Angel ... thanks for the intro to the Boulevardier ... where have you been all my life and why have I never heard of this drink? Negroni is always a go to drink + massive fan of Bourbon and Rye whiskey's ... so thanks

[@CameronPriceJ]

This was awesome! I am in the industry, mainly the wine side but I know spirits basics and this was enlightning! I am garbage with cocktails but the Negroni is my absolute fave for it's simplicity and bitterness. I just wanted to say that your drink building was excellent and the variations that turn into completely different cocktails was an absolute "a-ha" moment lol Thanks for the cool videos :)

[@randomboar2025]

I was impressed by your professional filming and lighting, and of course, amazing and compact content. Such an underrated channel! Keep working!

[@BehindtheBar]

Thanks pal, that all means a lot!

[@shannonharris7532]

Great video; very informative Negronis are simple and delicious.

[@wertherland]

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Loved it! that is my favorite cocktail.

[@BehindtheBar]

You have excellent taste! Haha

[@wertherland]

@@BehindtheBar I was able to purchase a special edition Campari , Cask Tales... it is a very beautiful bottle and label... the flavor is a bit more bodied... full... I actually do not mix it, straight with ice and orange garnish... have you tried it? what do you think?

[@kevinmckay2361]

So much love

[@Flodhesten]

Really good step by step guide

[@bryano2130]

I cannot emphasize enough how important product knowledge is, and my bartenders don't seem to care. I'm sending them this video. Thank you, you've definitely earned a new subscriber.

[@dougkurtz3140]

Thank You for lending your vast expertise to the You Tube crowd. l have learned a lot from you already.

[@dwilsonwsp]

As always very educational. I have one little variation...I add a couple of drops of orange bitters.

[@Tennisisreallyfun]

And then, of course, we have the Negroni Sbagliato as yet another variation where the gin is substituted for a top off of Prosecco. But obviously you know this as you’re so talented, I really love your videos and the breakdowns you give of these classic cocktails you give! I’m Italian and was mostly raised around wine which means I have a deep knowledge of wines from all around the globe really, but cocktails were never my thing until a year or two ago when I had this wonderful G&T at a restaurant that was livened up with some elderflower simple syrup that I thought was just the most wonderfully fresh thing to start off a dinner with as opposed to, say, a glass of champagne. So videos like these give me not just some more knowledge to go off of when ordering cocktails at a bar or restaurant, but also a way to apply that knowledge and decide which drinks might be more to my taste before I order them. Thanks😊

[@BehindtheBar]

What a lovely comment, thank you!

[@218422100]

Make'n me thirsty!!! I luv this drink 😎💯

[@joegonzalez7518]

Is that a native Glaswegian accent I hear? Your channel is sublime. The way you present the cocktail history, you're a natural. I see good things in your future. Best, Joe (New Yorker living in Queensland).

[@nigeldeforrest-pearce8084]

Marvelous!!!

[@DanDaCosta]

Watched a couple of your videos now and you've a new subscriber! Tried the Boulevardier in Prague's Hemmingway Bar and instantly fell in love with it, reigniting my interest in making drinks too. They swapped the bourbon for a Laphroaig 10 to give it a smokier feel.

[@BehindtheBar]

Delicious! Thanks for the support 😊 we cover the boulevardier in our American whiskey video here if you’re interested: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3iXpYpjr895ebc

[@joeboyd4726]

I use equal parts gin and vermouth and 3/4 part Campari. For me Campari is too bitter. Great drink. Love your videos.

[@SarawakPollster]

you may try replace the negroni component with the milder flavoured aperol and that will give you a more orange theme throughout

[@exodohd5]

And then I'm subscribe ahaha. I love the Negroni and it's the recipe that allow me to enjoy the coctels content and start to make coctels by my own. I use london dry gin, vermu rosso (I prefer Cinzano), and for the bitter I like campari, but sometimes I use a spritz bitter plus a shot of amargo de angostura or a similar herbs bitter. Love the botanicals, so much flavor in this coctel. Gracias por tu video, especilamente la parte del story moment. Saludos de Chile!.
