One of my favorite cocktails!

The Enzoni was created by Barman Vincenzo Errico while working at the legendary NYC bar Milk & Honey. Errico was an Italian bartender who Sasha Petraske (founder and owner of Milk & Honey) met while he was in England opening the London arm of his bar asked Errico to join him at his flagship bar in New York. Errico had gone to London from Naples in 1999 looking for opportunity and luckily for him fell into a job where he was trained by legendary English barman Dick Bradsell.
Errico created this drink in 2003 and it is a mash up of a Negroni and also a traditional Gin Sour. I wish I could tell you more about it's creation but with modern classics sometimes theres not that much there. What I will tell you though is that it's delicious and perfect for the spring and summer so enjoy it!

Is that a bottle of Four Pillars Navy Strength sitting back there? So cool to see the recognition Australian spirits are getting nowadays! ;)

[@randymcneill4455]

It’s a great drink. Made it for a pool party. And summers in Alabama call for a drink like this.

[@zennekelechien1610]

Holy shit. This cocktail is a gamechanger and an instant classic. This is going straight to the top of my arsenal of crowd pleasers. Can't wait to see friends going slack-jawed and googly-eyed at this taste of perfection. 10/10, five stars, insert your own superlative. Grazie mille, Vicenzo e Leandro!

[@spuppy852]

Looks like a true modern classic. Can't wait to try this, it looks amazing

[@cookingwithvince]

I have to say this is in my 5 favorite coctails....

[@saldb]

The simplicity of this drink makes it contemporary classic

[@ericyardley9348]

Great cocktail. I love love this one!

[@spazchicken1]

Made it with the last ounce of Campari I had . I LOVE the vibrant coral pink/orange color or it. Definitely a great summer drink 🍹. I might try an Aperol version for my fam who are not as keen with bitter flavors .

[@jmrdaddy]

I know this is a year old, but I’ve only recently (since quarantine) gotten into mixing cocktails. I couldn’t get my head around Campari. Way too bitter for me. Bought a bottle to try a Negroni and thought it was disgusting. Thought I’d die with it on the shelf. But this, this I can get into... very well done, thanks.

[@statix6979]

Wow

[@pbr-streetgang]

Thanks for the vid sir.🥃

[@jacquesst-pierre973]

Had another tonight. Just spectacular. Could be one of my top 5 cocktails from now on. Up there with the Manhattan and the Old Fashioned.

[@seandankers2631]

This has become my go to summer drink on the porch. Great drink..

[@Freddie_Dunning-Kruger_Jr.]

It's 50°F in Chicago mid December, and the green grapes are the biggest I've ever seen in my 40+ years at the supermarkets the last few weeks, ain't sure where they are from but gonna wash'em and make this cocktail when I get home. 🍸🍹🥂

[@randyburk874]

You didn't forget anything this time.

[@annajull328]

Randy Burk only the N in garnish at 4:50

[@juliangramajo7010]

i am in love with this drink

[@NastierNate]

I have a friend who works as a bartender at a local cocktail bar that’s been able to open at limited capacity. He asked me for suggestions when they were pitching drinks for their spring menu, and we were able to get the Enzoni onto the menu. Excited that more people will get to try this.

[@dawgyv72]

You have a classic cocktail on your menu???? thats weird lol

[@brayanmorales313]

I love this drink!!!

[@happyscrappy370]

This is the first video I ever saw from you guys and the first cocktail I ever made in my life and the first time I ever made friends because I made it for others. So thanks.

[@glenngallegos]

EEEE! The Enzoni has been on my list of drinks to try.

[@atreyuwings]

Works really well with kiwi or watermelon instead of grapes also

[@kimbergqvist1350]

Can you show how to make "Coral reef"? I think you would like it! It's Gin St-Germain, Aperol and Soda water, would be a nice drink to show the elderflower with !

[@TheMatthewcota]

Fell in love with this cocktail last time you made it. I'm not a huge negroni fan, those grapes and lemon do some magic work.

[@Showmeyourtitties]

This is my new favorite drink. I'm using Hardshore gin, which is lovely. I serve it straight up in a coup with a lemon and orange twist, no garnish. Really elevates the drink imo. Thanks again for another banger.

[@michaelgiovanis2048]

wouldnt the twists be the garnish?

[@Showmeyourtitties]

@@michaelgiovanis2048 I express the peel but toss it. I meant no physical garnish.

[@michaelgiovanis2048]

Well then you expressed a peel and discarded. A twist is something else all together

[@Showmeyourtitties]

@@michaelgiovanis2048 🤡👌

[@IverJ]

Looks awesome. Found my after work cocktail for today. Cheers.

[@GavinSideways]

Such a cool drink

[@getrajesh]

You had posted it on 2nd Aug 2018z. Loved it then and love it now!

[@BullzEyeXL]

That's a great jasmine variation😍😍

[@aurum42]

Small heads-up: 5 to 7 grapes are called for at 1:17, but the specs in the description say 4 to 5.

[@JeffJefferson]

My new favorite Campari drink!!! 🍹

[@peterpeter8325]

Green grapes are small ALWAYS!

[@Aenaos100]

I think you've done an Enzoni before. But nevermind, it's a good revision

[@thief1434]

I usually use aperol instead of campari for cocktails like a negroni because I prefer it a little less bitter, but for something like this I think i'll definitely have to get campari

[@jokur2630]

I used aperol first time I made this and loved it, and I normally prefer Campari. That version was also made using dark purple Sapphire grapes and I used 1/4 oz honey syrup instead of 1/2 oz simple as that’s what I had on hand, amazing and that’s in January!

[@matthewmartinez1085]

Ive been holding off on Campari but this drinks makes me think it's time to pick up a bottle

[@pawelkietlinski4664]

You posted this vid before (only Real EBF fans knows 😎)

[@StevetheBartender_]

I thought so too!

[@ribbitrocks]

looks amazing / will try for sure.... the finger handling of the garnish...uhmmm well less appetizing

[@jigglesby]

This is truly delicious... But you've made it before, no?

[@anegativecoconut4940]

Yep.

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

I’ll be updating some videos...

[@xStarkFM]

I found the .75oz of lemon juice to be too tart. Dropped it to .5oz and it makes a huge difference!

[@caseymakes]

Swapped cherries with the grapes, highly recommended!

[@jmerriman2522]

I just tried muddling a chunk of watermelon as a substitute for the grapes. Also worked fine as a substitute.

[@gorkemmmmmt]

Thank you for this video. in some recipes I see they add half an ounce of Martini. do you think it's better without it?

[@badassblackman]

You're giving me de ja vu. Ever try this with cotton-candy grapes? I bought them by mistake and they made for a surprisingly delicious drink.

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

znot yet but Imma have to try it.

[@badassblackman]

@@TheEducatedBarfly Awesome, they're a bit small so you may have to use more, I liked mixing them 2:1 cotton candy to sour grape, used six grapes usually. Curious what type of potion you conjure up. You tha man, thanks for the reply. OK bye-bye.

[@a.j.d.9004]

How about a series on savory drinks? Not the usual suspects, i.e., bloody mary, but new or forgotten salty drinks?

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

A. J. D. I actually just created one and will probably shoot a video on it soon.

[@a.j.d.9004]

@@TheEducatedBarfly in general I detest sweet drinks. I've had some smoky drinks that truly delicious.

[@HenriFaust]

Do you recommend Beefeater specifically for this cocktail? Will Bombay Sapphire be acceptable for it? I don't know too much about gins.

[@russkaake4703]

I keep Aperol in the bar year round because I love it much more than Campari. Reasonable substitute?

[@DeeExailProductions]

Why do Americans love beefeater so much. All the bartenders I know and myself think it just tastes like petrol

[@Ghorda9]

it's a very typical and cheap london dry.

[@hamanhamful]

Crush it x

[@thelonesoldier4579]

I would wrap the grape in the orange slice as the garnish

[@Xanatos712]

I usually like my Enzonis on a big cube/sphere as well (usually make a double Enzoni because they're so damn drinkable), but last time you did this cocktail it was a crushed ice variant. What was the original M&H presentation? Crushed or cube?

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

Xanatos712 last time I made this drink was on cubed ice, the original was done on a rock. I’m going back through videos and redoing the ones I think could use an update or if I’m not happy with the presentation of the drink etc..

[@Xanatos712]

@@TheEducatedBarfly Well this cocktail definitely needs a revisit. Not that there was anything wrong with the first video, but more people need to be drinking this because god damn if it isn't one of the best!

[@andrewseely4614]

With your lemon juice/lime juice do you buy it somewhere pre squeezed or squeeze several lemons and put it in the fridge?

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

always fresh squeezed juice. I juice the day of before the shoot and since we do several episodes in one session, I juice and bottle.

[@DrivingWithJake]

Not always being a fan of gin would you say most gin cocktails pair well with lime? I've had a few random ones I've made without lime and I didn't like it so much yet gin lime cucumber etc I love.

[@cookingwithvince]

Can you use purple grapes?

[@dennischiapello3879]

I would use anything but a homely green grape for the garnish. I’m not sure any grape would look good sitting on a cocktail. Better to keep it the mystery ingredient.

[@TheBubyChris]

Do you have a grape varietal that you recommend? Different grapes bring different sugar content and I would love to know what you think is best.

[@sunblurr]

IMO the tarter the grapes, the better the result. The grapes impart more sweetness to the drink than you would think.

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

For this drink I used Autumn Royal seedless green grapes

[@inthought4458]

Great cocktail; however, you have made this a while back; however, the last time you used crushed ice instead of a cube...

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

Kapil Khanna not crushed ice, I used cubes last time. Wanted a redo of this video

[@greglogan7706]

Barfly, I have taken to using Luxardo Bitter rather than Compari as it is somewhat less sweet and seems much more pungent in my experience. I know there are other makes of Bitter - I have not found one better than Luxardo - not the Blanco in this case that may have a you somewhere a bit it's the standard red bitter. Also I see no benefit for the simple as the sweetness of the graves and the syrup seem more than adequate.... Depending on the nature of the greats approximately one great per teaspoon of gin Comments?

[@stefer8]

I like it more with 45ml (1 1/2oz) of gin and 10ml (1/3oz) of simple syrup, more bitter, I don't like sweet taste, personal opinion, try it :D

[@andrewcooper7256]

Could you show us a few mocktails, ones with interesting ingredients?

[@sacramento60]

I don't know... that seems like a lot of Campari

[@therocketman321]

Guys the volume is still to low!!!! Please use a mic closer to your face. My phone is turned all the way up and it's still to low.

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

We have tested and retested the sound and its all good on every device we've tried it on...maybe the sound is low on your device? Not sure...

[@tobygreenwood5036]

I think your phone is broken tbh

[@tonysbistro7119]

@@TheEducatedBarfly I find the volume a tad low as well actually. Excited to try this drink tonight!

[@vedved1550]

So many classics... All has been ruined by cruise ships industries, night clubs, mostly how many Americans bartenders who don't even know nothing.. Most of them become bartender overnight... Sugar syrup do everything

[@Irishringo]

Why do you recreate old videos? Is it that you think the quality of those videos aren't as good?

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

Jack007 my style has changed a bit over the time I’ve been doing this and I’ve learned a lot, there are some videos I think could use an update and so I’ll reshoot them.

[@HenriFaust]

If you have something small like grapes, you should grab yourself a ruler and take a picture of the grapes next to it for the purpose of size comparison. That way if a person needs to prepare a large batch or they are really anal they can calculate volumes and all that nonsense.
