Do you think I should do a bar-flair video? 🤔 Edit: Just to be clear - I can’t do flair.

Personally, I think flair is...not my thing. It feels like a lot of extra energy to make a poorly constructed cocktail. I much prefer the practiced fluidity and efficiency of, say, a Jean-Félix of Truffles on the Rocks or the sort of graceful rituality of some Japanese bartenders. (Sorry, Vlad.)

My mother (who lived most of her life in SC) was a HUGE Blenheim ginger ale fan. (She pronounced it “blen-um” - no idea if that’s right or not.) She brought the spicy stuff to our first family get together post-Covid (most of us couldn’t handle it 😂). She passed in February and your video got me in the feels a little bit, wasn’t expecting that. Thanks for a good memory. ❤️

Isn't that how they pronounce the name of the town, too? We drive through there going to the beach and have stopped in a couple of little shops. Thought Blen-um was the correct one, for the area.
FWIW Blenheim Palace in the UK is also Blen-um or more Blen-im

Awesome drink with the lime shell. What I did with mine was punch a hole in the lime shell slightly smaller than the straw and push the straw through. Then I placed the lime shell with straw in the glass and filled with cassis. When serving, I tell my guests to try the drink first and then pull the straw out, releasing the cassis.

Dude! That was a fun one to watch. Drinks from this category are so much fun to make...and, of course, to drink as well! A while back I stumbled on a variation of the El Diablo called a Red Bomber that used Cherry Heering instead of the crème de cassis. It's definitely worth trying. And if you're a nerd like me, and you need something to help pass the evening at a diplomatic dinner with the Klingons, then swap out the tequila for a white rum, use blue curacao instead of the cassis, and you've got yourself some Romulan Ale. Cheers!
