    Join co-hosts Uncle Brad and Jules as they explore the sophisticated world of gin, from modern craft cocktails to historic London streets. Jules shares the story behind her signature creation, the Meditaranio—a Mediterranean-inspired gin sour featuring fresh basil and silky egg white that she crafted specially for her sister's Sicilian wedding. This elegant twist on the classic sour perfectly captures the herb-scented warmth of the Italian countryside. Uncle Brad then takes listeners on a journey through gin's darker past, diving deep into the notorious Gin Craze of 18th-century England. Discover how this beloved spirit went from being a cheap, destructive vice that nearly brought London to its knees to becoming the refined base for today's craft cocktails. From the squalid gin shops of Hogarth's prints to the botanical complexity of modern distillation, explore how gin transformed from social menace to mixology staple.  Whether you're interested in crafting your own herb-forward cocktails or learning about the fascinating social history behind your favorite spirits, this episode serves up the perfect blend of recipe inspiration and historical intrigue.  Mediterraneo Gin Sour  In your shaker add:  1 Egg white   2.0 oz of your favorite gin  0.75 oz of fresh lemon juice  0.5 oz of simple syrup  2 – 3 basil leaves  Dry Shake for 30 seconds  Add ice  Shake for 20 more seconds  Double strain into chilled coupe glass  Garnish with small basil leaf and/or lemon peel     The Art of Drinking  IG: @theartofdrinkingpodcast   Website: www.theartofdrinkingpodcast.com     Join Jules  IG: @join_jules  TikTok: @join_jules   Website: joinjules.com    Uncle Brad   IG: @favorite_uncle_brad    This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast  IG: @reddrockmusic  www.reddrockmusic.com  Learn more about your ad choices.

    Ep. 112: Cantaritos and Chemistry - When Cocktails Meet Food Science

    Brad and Jules welcome author, podcast host, photographer, and cocktail spherification expert Renya Edmonds to push the boundaries of drinkable science. Think Jello shots are impressive? Renya is about to revolutionize your cocktail game entirely.    In this episode, Brad walks you through the classic Cantarito served in traditional clay mugs, Jules freestyles a completely unmeasured riff straight into a bottle, and Renya guides us through the precise art of molecular mixology to create edible cocktail pods. Yes, cocktails you can bite into.    Cantarito (the drink, not the pod):  First, go order some clay mugs on amazon - look up cantarito mugs, get those  Get your clay mug, chill it, and then rim it with Tajin  In your shaker add:  2.0oz of Reposado Tequila (blanco is fine if you prefer)  0.75oz of Fresh orange Juice  0.75oz of Fresh lime juice  0.5oz of Fresh lime juice  Pinch of salt  Ice  Shake it like you mean it - about 20 secondes  Fill your clay mug halfway with ice  Strain your shaker into the mug  Top off with Squirt  Garnish with a lime wedge    Ready to attempt the pods? You'll need some specialized equipment: a kitchen scale (gram precision), sodium alginate, calcium lactate, an airtight container, and an immersion blender. We know it sounds intimidating, but the payoff is extraordinary. Oh… and get some ice cube trays if you don’t have them. The ones with the silicon bottom work pretty slick.     Sorry, I know this is a lot, but the fun that will follow is worth it    FIRST make your Sodium Alginate bath  5g Sodium Alginate  1 Liter Distilled Water (IT MUST BE DISTILLED)  1/3 cup of sugar  Using an immersion blender, combine sodium alginate, sugar and distilled water in a large airtight bowl  Let sit for 1-24 hours to allow bubbles to dissipate   Next, make your ingredients for your pods (ratio for about 10 pod)  60 grams Reposado Tequial  40 grams Fresh OJ  20 grams Fresh grapefruit Juice  15 grams Fresh lime juice  65g Squirt  Pinch of salt  TOTAL should be 200 grams  (you’ll need 6 grams of Calcium Lactate - hold this off to the side until you’ve read the directions)  Heat 65g of Squirt on the stove top or in a mug in the microwave until boiling  Add in 6g of calcium lactate, stir until dissolved.  Add all ingredients together, measuring each liquid correctly  Pour cocktail into ice molds, freeze for at least 6 hours, the longer the better  Warm the sodium alginate bath to about 120 degrees F and prepare two bowls with cold water   Drop one frozen cocktail pod into the sodium alginate bath and gently stir the water with a spoon (be careful not to touch pod with the spoon until the membrane has formed)  Pick up the pod with a slotted spoon, wipe the bottom of the spoon with a paper towel, and transfer to the first cold water bath  Rinse thoroughly by stirring the water, repeat the process rinsing the pod in a second water bath.  Enjoy!  Reyna Edmonds  Find more ideas @reyna.edmonds  Check our her podcast, Lunatic Soup  Buy her book(!), The Unauthorized Court Of Cocktails: Recipes for your Romantasies    The Art of Drinking  IG: @theartofdrinkingpodcast   Website: www.theartofdrinkingpodcast.com     Join Jules  IG: @join_jules  TikTok: @join_jules   Website: joinjules.com    Uncle Brad   IG: @favorite_uncle_brad    This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast  IG: @reddrockmusic  www.reddrockmusic.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Today we dive into the Hemingway Daiquiri—a drink as bold and uncompromising as the man who inspired it.

    Ep. 108: The Brandy Alexander – Velvet in a Glass

    Uncle Brad and Jules tackle the luxurious Brandy Alexander – a cocktail so smooth, it practically wears velvet pajamas. This creamy classic may have emerged from the shadow of its lesser-known (but equally delicious) parent cocktail, but it's earned its place as a dessert drink worthy of year-round appreciation.  Uncle Brad starts us off with the traditional Brandy Alexander, made the proper way with cream – because while our friends in Wisconsin might insist on ice cream, we're sticking to the original recipe that put this cocktail on the map. Then Jules shakes things up with her signature Root Beer twist, proving that sometimes the best innovations come from thinking outside the liquor cabinet. Uncle Brad digs into the fascinating origins of this sophisticated sipper and reveals the identity of its mysterious parent cocktail.  Whether you're looking to cap off a dinner party or simply want to treat your taste buds to something special, the Brandy Alexander delivers dessert-level indulgence in liquid form. Just remember: this is a nightcap, not a noon-time refresher... actually, don’t let us dictate policy, enjoy it whenever you’d like.  Brandy Alexander  Glass: Coupe  Garnish: Nutmeg  Directions & Ingredients  In shaker glass add:  1.5 oz Cognac / Nice French Brandy  1.0 oz Dark creme de cacao  1.0 oz of Heavy cream  Ice  Shake for 20 seconds or until it’s too cold to hold  Strain into your coupe glass  Garnish with fresh nutmeg     Alexander the Float  Rootbeer Alexander Float  A boozy, creamy, spiced summer dessert cocktail  Glass: Pint Glass  Garnish: Nutmeg or shaved chocolate   Ingredients:  2 oz Cognac  1 oz crème de cacao   1/2 oz heavy cream  2 oz root beer (chilled)  1 scoop vanilla bean ice cream  Freshly grated nutmeg (optional)  Instructions:  Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream to your glass  Shake the brandy, crème de cacao, and cream with ice and strain into glass  Top with root beer—slowly! Let it fizz.  Garnish with a dash of nutmeg or a shaved chocolate float.  TIP: Thoughtful question from @Susu_51295 about the differences between syrup, shrub, and oleo sacrum – essential knowledge for any home bartender looking to elevate their craft.     The Art of Drinking  IG: @theartofdrinkingpodcast   Website: www.theartofdrinkingpodcast.com     Join Jules  IG: @join_jules  TikTok: @join_jules   Website: joinjules.com    Uncle Brad   IG: @favorite_uncle_brad    This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast  IG: @reddrockmusic  www.reddrockmusic.com Learn more about your ad choices.

    Ep. 107: Malort... What The Hell is Going on Here?

    Join Uncle Brad and Jules as they brave the notoriously face-contorting Malort. Listen as these courageous libation explorers transform Chicago's favorite liquid punishment into surprisingly palatable cocktails, including Uncle Brad's recreation of the Swedish Seed that might actually make you want to drink Malort (trust him on this one, it’s like Root Beer for grown-ups).  Discover the twisted history of this infamous spirit, from its Swedish origins to its Chicago cult status, and learn how this beverage—described by critics as tasting like "grapefruit rind steeped in gasoline"—became both a beloved cultural touchstone and the city's favorite practical joke on unsuspecting tourists. We'll track Malort's journey from immigrant staple to near extinction, and its phoenix-like revival in the 2010s that cemented its status as Chicago's most masochistic rite of passage.  Whether you're a Malort veteran with the facial scars to prove it or a curious newcomer wondering "how bad could it really be?" (spoiler: bad), this episode promises equal parts history lesson and liquid courage. Listen in and discover why sometimes, the worst-tasting traditions are the ones we cherish most.  Swedish Seed  Glass: Coupe  Garnish: Orange peel  Directions & Ingredients  In shaker add:  1.0 oz Malort  1.0 oz Root liqueur  1 egg white  0.75 oz fresh lemon juice  1.5 oz brown sugar honey syrup  2 dash angostura   Dry Shake for 30 seconds Add ice and shake for 20 seconds more  Double Strain into coupe  Add orange peel garnish     TIP: Question form Austin Elliot Strickland – Which is better, syrups or liqueurs?    The Art of Drinking  IG: @theartofdrinkingpodcast   Website: www.theartofdrinkingpodcast.com     Join Jules  IG: @join_jules  TikTok: @join_jules   Website: joinjules.com    Uncle Brad   IG: @favorite_uncle_brad    This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast  IG: @reddrockmusic  www.reddrockmusic.com Learn more about your ad choices.
