caipirinha: cachaça, sugar, and lime. Cachaça is a Brazilian "Proto" Rum. It is a great flavor that is unique and very similar to the Daqueri. It is just great and is always a nice start to an evening by the pool. 2 oz cachaça, 1 oz simple syrup (demarara), 2 oz lime juice. Put the lime cut into wedges into the glass with crushed ice and shake. MMMMMM MMMMMM!! Enjoy.

Corn and Oil. I remember the first time I made myself one. I'd made a batch of Falernum for other tiki drinks, and looked around for what else I could use it for and found the Corn n Oil recipe. I took my first sip and thought "good grief, that's the worst drink I've every had!" In fact, it was so bad, I had to take another sip just to be sure. The second sip was pretty bad, but maybe not as bad as I'd originally thought. The third sip, I thought, "well, it's not good, but it's really not that bad..." By the time I finished the whole thing, it was my new favorite drink.

Pretty good coverage of the three cocktails. Those were all good Daiquiri rums (Denizen 3 is another good option). But Probitas (“Pro-Be-Taaaas”, rhymes with Veritas - the name of this rum outside the USA) is the best. There’s a ton of added sugar in the Plantation 20th Anniversary rum, so isn’t a great representative of typical Barbados rums that don’t have added sugar. But it certainly has its fans.

"a ton" = 24g/L, so 16,8 g in a bottle of 700ml. An adult should not ingest more than 24 to 36 g of sugar per day, so unless you plan to drink the whole bottle in one day, I think sugar is not the bigger concern here. Also, there is 14 g of sugar in 1 oz of simple and there's 1,44g of sugar in 2 oz of this rum. So I don't think it make a huge difference, just depends on the palate of the drinker. If you want to be accurate, Daiquiri should be made with Cuban rum and not Barbadian anyway, so I would suggest "just drink whatever you prefer to".

One might be fine, even. I note too that the recipe on the back of the Velvet Falernum bottle doesn't include bitters. I think the bitters really add, personally.

This is the beauty of Tropical/Caribbean/Island cocktails. Some self-serious nerds even call them "Tiki-adjacent" 🙄 although most pre-date Tiki. The old Caribbean (Jamaica and Barbados and others argue over the originator) saying of "One of sour, two of sweet, 3 of strong, 4 of weak" where the weak of ice replaces water has lead to some uncomplicated but excellent cocktails. Personally, I'd keep the sugar syrups for Tiki cocktails and Ti' Punch and would use super-fine granular in the daiquiri. There is something with the cloudy drink and the soft grit of sugar that makes the original, or at least El Floridta's daiquiri special. Heck you can even get down to 2 ingredients with a Mauby Fizz and Rum or Wray & Ting which taste a lot more "complex" than a simple rum & coke LOL

Wow! What an episode once again, thank you Spike! The drinks here are simple but the whole video made me want to comment so many things that I had a hard time watching it to the end (twice) before writing my comments 🙂 1) I hate Goslings for their patent thing and taking legal action because of "wrong rum" used in the Dark n' Stormy. I will never buy any Goslings product. 2) I was first introduced to the Daiquiri just two months ago. Since then I have made quite a few of them, I really like them. I recently even did a test with all the light rums I have (using same ratios as you): Plantation 3 Star, Flor de Caña 4 and Wray & Nephew overproof. The Plantation was by far the best one. It was perfect, 10/10. Flor de Caña was the second best, but not very good. I'd give it a 7,5/10. Wray & Nephew... well... just say no. Skip this one. 3/10 at the most. Two other rums I did the Daiquiri with: Plantation Pineapple (9,5/10) and Plantation Isle of Fiji (9/10). Both very nice! I used demerara syrup in these last two. 3) I heard good things about the Probitas from other KZitemrs as well. Hoping I will get access to it at some point over here. Of course also looking forward to the Hamilton range at some point, but we can only dream of those over here in Europe... not to mention Finland in particular. 4) Too many slow motions in one video is not good. You were almost too close to the limit in this one, sorry. Last but NOT LEAST: You dated Sugarpepper Jones with the SuperSexy voice?! Dude! Not that there's anything wrong with Murder Queen either.

I like how you stress the accuracy and copyright associated with Gosling's Dark & Stormy and how it isn't a true Dark & Stormy without adhering strictly to that formula , then you turn around and add the caveat that some people like to add a 3rd ingredient which you'll be showcasing in the video. I mean, you might as well just buy Gosling's official Dark & Stormy in a can (they come in packs of 4 and taste great) if you want the copyrighted original cocktail - that way, no need to measure out ingredients and it comes just the way Gosling's intended it. But add lime juice to that and gasp! Better pray you don't end up in court. Personally, I like to make my own variations on the cocktail using whatever black rum and ginger beer I have at my disposal and since I make them for myself at home and don't call it a Dark & Stormy there's never any need to worry about getting sued. Anyways, thanks for this video, I love simple but delicious cocktails! 👍

Not to get pedantic, but a “true” daiquiri should be made with granular sugar and not a simple syrup. Caster sugar (a popular Latin confectionery sugar used in merengues) works excellently as it is finer than granular sugar but does not totally dissolve like a powdered sugar, or leave large granules like standard sugar. Of course you would need a Cuban rum, but White Stache, Hamilton Puesto, and Probitas are excellent rums… but it just has to be granular sugar to be an authentic daiquiri

Mon! LOL - Barbidians??? Wha Manner Of Nonsense Is Dis Mon? Excuse me, but FYI - the people of Barbados will always be known as "BAJANS'...(Bay-Jens). And in the 13+ years I lived there (1970 to 1983) , co-owned (the most famous club in the history of the island/West Indies) Alexandra's, and was close with every major bar & restaurant owner on the island, as well as the Prime Minster, and the Ward family (Founders of the world's first proper Caribbean rum distillery - Mount Gay - in 1703), I don't recall ever hearing of a (local Bajan) drink called Corn & Oil. It was never mentioned or asked for in any bar on the island in my time. (Sounds more like a ting from Trinidad!) What most everyone concerned with proper daily cocktails really drank across the British West Indies was a 'Lime Squash' - which is essentially a colonial British Daiquiri. And BTW - the one you made here was properly done. In the common lingo of Barbados, and because of this common popular drink, the primary local term for relaxing or having a good time is referred to as "Lime'n Out" (Limeing Out). DM me if you want to learn more of cultural foundations in that part of the world, where authentic rum was basically invented. And I love enjoying Alexandre Gabriel's fine Plantation 20th Anniversary Rum (Primo Cork!) as much as any true pirate, - but the most down home representative/ambassador of classic Barbados rum distilling traditions is probably Richard Seale at Foursquare.
