Leandro's little black book of recipes

No credit and a gut feeling makes me think it's AI generated. I wanna throw up.

@@BigFatCock0 it do have that "airless" feature all ai gen songs i've heard have. its like there is no air vibrating a persons vocal cords, it similar to how an organ and a synth sounds

[@AStava]

Thank God someone mentioned this lol

[@stephens2241]

I love the idea of having a little black book. There's a certain theatricality to it. I can imagine regular customers enjoying a little inside joke whenever "the book" comes out.

[@jr2906]

I’m glad I’m not the only one. When I stared making cocktails at home a few years ago I started writing down recipes in a notebook rather than on my phone.

[@tomassanchez376]

1:11 completely agree! Got my own little black book

[@jessicasprague9085]

That song was giving cocktail-making montage. Need to see the blood sweat, tears, and high fives from Marius at the end.

[@ЗьміцерГрамадскі]

The song 😂 and the blurry vision are nice touches. Cheers, guys!

[@polishprince7219]

i'm so glad that you said that about the Benedictine! I always felt that it tasted like a more honey forward, sweeter version of Yellow Chartreuse.

[@christinecamley]

I love the idea of a little black book Leandro! Moleskin rocks! The cell just isn't the same. It's like the newspaper - I sub online to the NY Times but I also buy it daily!! Love that!! Nightcaps sound interesting! I don't have them as alcohol interferes with sleep if I have any too late. For me before 7pm it's often a dram of delicious Islay peated scotch! Cocktails can also be nice! Love these! Thanks so much!! 🙂

[@yyyyyk]

Love this video idea! Well done on the Idea, Marius! And well done on the execution, as always, Leandro! P.S. - I paused the video to read the names of the other cocktails you had in your black book, and then searched and found your videos about each of them on your channel. Your channel is truly a treasure! Thank you!

[@JM-js7nq]

Great episode

[@betht555]

I started a little Black Book and save my favourite cocktails. Its a great idea😊

[@brianherman503]

The song at 2:13 is fantastic!

[@bambam2x905]

I have a book just like this! It was really neat to hear what was in it!

[@Druss47]

Salute LD! I haven't watched a lot of your content recently, but I love this. I use index cards, but this seems more compact, and inconspicuous.

[@johnolmos8670]

I had 4 moleskin books 1. For classic and modern classic cocktails. I also used it for syrups and infusion notes 2. For Tiki cocktails 3. For wine and wine tasting notes 4. For beer and beer tasting notes

[@UnabashedNerd]

Lovin the little black book. We had a similar shot at work of equal parts Cynar and Green Chartreuse. We called it Puppy Chow

[@brennancotter4133]

I was just on your website recently. I really like what you guys have done to it! i like how I can search my cocktail choice by what ingredients I have, that is what I like to use my books for buy you guys did a great job with the site to make it much easier! Way to go!

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

Thanks!

[@DirtyHairy01]

Great recipes thank you!

Can't wait to get those new glasses!

[@aginsfbayarea7350]

Great video and I'll be trying a few of these! Re the Shanghai Gin, I have been enjoying this one for a while and I had heard it was created in 2007/2008 by a bartender named Kent at SF's Slanted Door. Who knows? Makes you wonder about some of these origin stories...

[@margefoyle6796]

This was a ton of fun! Great idea, Marius! Leandro, can you do an explainer of the brandy meanings? Like what is VSOP and all the others? I can probably Google it, but you will make it more interesting!

[@jaspervangheluwe7531]

Great episode again guys! And congrats on your first song 😉

[@stefankirst3234]

No way! I started a little black book when I got into mixology and started following you (and Anders) a couple of years ago :)

[@patriciaaturner289]

7:45 Have you ever tried Izarra? It comes from the Basque regions of Spain and France, and is their Chartreuse equivalent. It comes in both green and yellow, and is interchangeable with Chartreuse. I am unsure if it is readily available in the US. Might be available in Mexico. Google is our friend.

[@joe_hutnak]

Love the music!

[@clayhunter-douglas3817]

Have you tried Brocato chaperal, it’s a green chartreuse substitute that’s amazing

[@trybeforeidie]

Classic Leandro forgetting something! Also digging the cap 🧢

[@chriswba]

I have the exact same but blue, with many of your recipes within...

[@jeffdonegan2062]

I have a notebook and OneNote. I use them both every shift

[@ahistoryofdrunksyt]

my mole books are stuffed to the gills with recipe papers. When your bartended produces one that's falling apart and spilling over you know you're in for a treat.

[@MarkRovelli]

on a tangent - i have the green Faccia Brutto at home (as a green chartreuse replacement) - i find it quite similar to the chartreuse in cocktails, except i add about 1/4 oz simple per cocktail since to me, it's not as sweet as the chartreuse... love the little black book btw!

[@rossselby-salazar6029]

when i saw the shanghai gin recipe, i was surprised!!! i make and love to drink a cocktail called the flying dutchman which is the same thing but it calls for genever instead of gin… it would be cool if you made a video on the history of gin and genever

[@ManInArea]

I knew the Just for Mary would be a banger! Not quite as banging as that song tho!! Thanks as always

[@GrahamBandage]

Absolutely digging the song.

[@aginsfbayarea7350]

Tried Seven Sins, and liked it a lot. Less "thin" and more rich than a Jack Rose. My question is, have you tried it with two dashes of Angostura, which is how I've seen it built elsewhere on the web? I put my dash of cinnamon powder in the shaker for one of the ones I sampled, and felt it was a nice improvement, but next time I am going to try the Angostura instead. Interested in your experience and thoughts. Cheers!

[@jasonbaker1887]

I have several of those exact little black books my oldest is also falling apart and has a piece of black duct tape holding it's spine together.

[@letoatreides5553]

I not only watched the original shanghai gin episode I made and it ended up in my rotation.

[@popvoid]

My downstairs neighbor was a bartender. When he died, his brother-knowing I was a cocktail fan-gave me his index file of drink recipes. He used shorthand on a lot of the recipes (example: "CSG MMC 1/4 FWI"). Some of these are pretty obvious ("FWI" is obviously "fill(ed) with ice"). Some I'm less sure of (I think "CSG" is a type of glass). Others leave me baffled (I have no idea what MMC means). He worked in a gay bar here in San Francisco and he specialized in drinks that taste more like candy than a cocktail, which is not really my jam. It may be impressive to make a cocktail that tastes like a Tootsie Roll ( 1 oz. Kahlua, 1/2 oz. dark rum and add orange juice to ice filled glass, if your curious), but I'd rather drink something that tastes like booze. Still, I'm glad I have it. It's a nice remembrance of the man and a style of cocktail making that was popular a few years ago.

Off topic here… but… Apparently in BC Canada ( Vancouver) Benedictine is not going to be available after stock is gone. My question is- can I sub B&B in a Vieux Carré? I would think so but can’t find any info on what the ratio of cognac to brandy is, in B&B. I would like to make it as close to original.

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

oh really? Do you know why? And this might not help, but Benedictine is sometimes used to sub for chartreuse, but not sure that will help the situation to go the other way

[@lesliebowles3649]

@@TheEducatedBarfly I did manage to find Benedictine after checking many liquor stores. ( should have bought what was left) I have heard that Chartreuse is a sub but not exactly. Oh, the First World problems!
