It has a cult following in my area(Sacramento, Ca) due to the Shady Lady here in town coming up with a drink called the “White Linen.” It’s a great cocktail that I think you and the viewers would enjoy. 1 1/2 oz of London dry gin- pretty sure the Shady lady uses Hendricks 1/2 oz of st germain 1 oz lemon juice 1/2 of of simple syrup Shake with 3/4 thin cucumber slices Strain into a Collins glass and top with Soda water. Gets garnished with a lemon wedge or some fancy cucumber number. Beats the heat up here in Sac, bet it’ll do the same for you in LA. Cheers!

One thing that I will note is that St. Germain ages. The flavor changes as it gets older. It starts brassy and bright but as it gets older, it deepens to a sweeter, more acid forward flavor. I have noticed this after about 1 year on the shelf. The color of the bottle you were using looks to be more on the aged side. For me, this means using fresh for more floral/citrus drinks (Grapefruit/Lemon/Gin) and older for more robust or sweeter drinks (Peach/Pear/Mezcal/Bourbon). Something to think about if you are making a recipe and it comes out "off".

Great topic this one !! Elderflower translation in french is "Sureau" where Sur- means Bitter or Sour. When you taste the berries you can really have this mouth watering feeling. So for the tasting part this is obvious for a french native speaker. And I have already made my homemade Sureau liqueur adding about 100gr of washed flower without the green stems into 1l of white alcohol 40% (Rhum or vodka) add the peel of one citrus and 1 vanilla bean (it is really pairing well). Let it sits for about 1 week and then double or triple filter it. In a final touch lower the alcohol content by adding water or fresh elderflower sirup. Ok it did turns out sharing my recipe instead of just thanking you for the content ahah.

Just saying, "sur(e)" means "sour" or "tart" but not bitter, I just wanted to correct this information sorry (Désolé ! xD Je continue en anglais) I've made a liqueur from elderBERRIES (recipe from my Grandma), I juice the berries, and add the juice in a pan. You add the same amount of "candi" sugar by weight and you cook this for about 20 minutes on medium heat. Then add the same volume (= to the juice) of Rum (or Vodka) and cook a couple minute on high heat while continuously stirring. And then let it gets to room temperature. (To make it even more syrupy, sometimes I add a stick of black licorice and melt it in the liquid while cooking !) It's so different from the flower taste, but it's also really nice and super interesting ! (Also gave my recipe, but I feel like this fruit is underrated !)

The Soul Clench is one of those drinks that I immediately knew I would love based on the ingredients, and I went ahead and made it within minutes of watching this video. It's an extremely boozy drink, with two ounces of liquor and two more ounces of liqueur and vermouth, so I had the thought halfway through drinking it to lengthen it with some soda water. This also helped balance out a bit of the sweetness and made for a very refreshing drink which I hope to remember when Summer rolls around.

One thing I noticed about St. Germain is that it does age over time and it goes darker and more bitter - and not in a good way - likely oxidization. I bought 2 bottles when they were on sale and during a renovation they sat in a box for over a year, maybe even 18 months. By the time I opened it I noticed it tasted a bit off. As I drank the bottle it got even more dark, bitter and not as delicate flavoured. So don’t let it sit in your bar cart for a long time… maybe one year max unopened, and maybe 6mos once opened. Not sure if refrigerating helps (since it is grape based) but it might.

In my experience, very cold or “dry” ice is best for stirred drinks as it’s a gentle preparation method. Using that same ice in a shaker however often results in slushy ice since it usually fractures and becomes brittle once in contact with anything warmer than itself (not great for aerating/controlling dilution). Same concept for serving over a block of clear ice - I typically like to let it sit out and temper for a while so it maintains that crystal clear structure in the glass

Interesting timing. I'm down to my last couple of ounces of Ketchup from the bottle I bought when it was all the rage over a decade ago. (It's a little extra syrupy now, sort of like that bottle of Kahlua you found under your wine-drinking parents' sink when you were 16.) Much of what has disappeared from the bottle in recent years has gone into Paris is Burning cocktails, although I recently did a round of improved martinis that look much like that Means of Preservation less the celery bitters. (That's definitely next on the list.) That smoky sweet mix of mezcal and pineapple is one of my favorites. I am particularly fond of Melissa Yard's mezcal pineapple sour, which is well beyond the tropical-adjacent space occupied by Paris is Burning.
