B*llsh*tting Deluxe: The Bum Chuck Chuck Cocktail

Folks - I have to show you this video of the Small Screen Network . This is how I feel very often, when "celebrity bartenders" are explaining what they are doing [but they mean it seriously]. Enjoy: My favorite part is the potato sugar: stir it every 12 minutes for several days… rofl.

How not to make a strawberry daiquiri!

I had once the apocryphal pleasure to get to know Kathy Casey. It was a Hoteliers Middle East round table and I was quite soon annoyed, due to the pink_cloud _world of Kathy and her partly bizarre understanding of mixology. You have to understand, that she is a professional chef [however if I see her knife skills I am not so sure about that] - turned bartender. Sometimes its difficult to be me - and I have occasional problems to stay diplomatic, if the topics become too peculiar. However I guess, that not exactly everybody hated me after this event… A couple of weeks ago I was surprised to see Kathy on the small screen network. Truth has to be told - this online network signed on really great guys - Robert Hess, was the first one - but also Jamie Boudreau has his show and Jeffrey Morgenthaler did also several videos there. Other than these 3 guys, I don't really vouch for the expertise for Ms. Casey. Please don't hate me - but lets just check out this video - featuring ...

The Daiquiri by Jeffrey Morgenthaler

Jeffrey's page , is one of the blogs, which are worth to drop in from time to time. He got a bit lazy these days with blogging [yeah the rage is all about cheap ass twittering]. However, that what he posts is great and usually creates quite a stir in the cocktail world. Last master piece is a video about making a Daiquiri. The video is hosted by the Small Screen Network [ Robert Hess has a show there as well as Jamie Boudreau ]. Now his introduction on his blog is totally understated and humble [I hate him for this]. If you check out then the video - it is just amazing. One of the best made footages about drinks, I have seen for a long time. Yeah - there is some envy in my undertone... Anyway - you have to check this out - as well as his blog! Only objection is, that a classic daiquiri is made with light rum - but I can forgive Jeffrey for this - aged rum taste much better in this cocktail.
