Hello all you lovely people, welcome to Drinks Tube we're lucky enough to have the one and
only Simone. We're not worthy dude, we're not worthy. One of the best cocktail men,
in the world! So you're gonna give use a cocktail that's good for these guys at home for summer?
We are making the treacle cocktails. Treacle cocktails? Yes, yes, rum, touch of apple,
that match all the body and the taste of the previous barbecue you've done, you've done
it match, it's sticks fantastically. It's time to work guys. Ok, ok, ok. You have to
do the drinks, so inside of the glass of the shaker, we put 50 ml of rum, this is 25 ml
if you do it home, so twice is the perfect. That's 50 ml right there. Exactly. Cloudy
apple juice. Proper apple juice? Yes! Not the filtered clear... No, no, no forget about
it. So how many, 25? This is perfect. Good job bro. Thanks man. A little sugar syrup,
now we don't have sugar syrup, so the best and easiest way to make it at home is simply
to get a jam jar, put a little bit of sugar and i've got some warm water, just a little
bit. Two parts of sugar and one of water. So it's like thicker... can I shake it? Of
course you can because you are the DJ. Alright here we go. Did you leave it open a little
bit? A little.. Shake it hard mate. Sticky, sticky DJ. Boom, chick a boom, ting, ting.
Ok how is that? And we have a Barbecue DJ instant sugar syrup. How cool is that? That
is brilliant. Now we only need to put a little bit, just Jamie a spoon. A teaspoon. Exactly,
that's it. So do you remember when you open the top of the barbecue the smoke and the
aroma of the ribs? mmm. We replicate the same notes inside of the cocktail with a dash of
aromatic bitters.What the hell is bitters? Why do people go crazy for them? So Aromatic
bitter is the essential of a great cocktail. So why? because it is a concentrate, infusion,
a maceration of specific herbs and spice. Normally our secret recipe. So let's put a
dash, 2 dashes, 3! Because there is 3 of us. The sexy boys, exactly, 3. The drink is ready.
All we need to do is shake it, so lets put some ice in this part of the shaker. How much?
More, more lets be generous, it's a fantastic day, we are under the sun. The suns come out
for you. Exactly. And lets put some here, so we can chill the glass. You're always thinking.
Who's gonna shake it? You're good at shaking it, I've seen you making cocktails. You're
a better tosser than me... ho, ho I forgot you were funny. That's it dude. Exactly, Jamie
style shaking. Chill, Chill... nice. DJ just give a kiss to the shaker. You see, you see.
Smooth dude. Have you been training me well. So this now gets poured and this is the treacle.
Treacle cocktail. Why is it called treacle when there is no treacle in it? If you don't
know what treacle is, treacle is kind of like an old school, sort of refined sugar syrup.
Well think about where the sugar come from, the rum come from all the sugar canes, the
molasses and combine it with the notes, the spice of the bitters you get all these kind
of profile flavours. So what we need to do is, we take an apple, yeah? and we just simply
slice a side. You simply keep cutting like a small badges. You can stick it. Yes you
can. Yes, yes. And what you do is, you simply move it and then you make a nice fan. Wowzers.
See how easy it is to make a beautiful garnish. You know what you do? Before placing it, you
give it a dash of aromatic bitter on the apple, yeah and then when you open it, it will change
kind of the colour, yeah, so when you approach you smell all the spices, the fresh apple,
the vanilla notes of the rum, the apple. I'm ready, where is the barbecue, i'm starving
now, I feel my appetite turned on because of this. I've gotta say, that is beautiful.
