Pandan Gin Sour

~~~~~

Recipe:

1.5 oz Gin

1 oz Blanc Vermouth

1 oz Lime Juice

1 oz Pandan Coconut Orgeat

1 Dash Orange Bitters (Optional)

Combine ingredients into cocktail shaker with two large cubes of ice, one cracked and one whole. Shake for 12 (twelve) to 15 (fifteen) seconds to combine. Double strain into a coupe style glass of your choosing and garnish the rim with a wheel of lime.

Pandan Coconut Orgeat:

2 cups white sugar

1 1/4 cup almond milk (unsweetened and unflavored)

1/3 cup Pandan powder (no sugar added)

1 1/2 tbsp coconut extract

1/2 tbsp almond extract

Combine the ingredients into a medium saucepan and stir together over very low heat. Bring gently up to a simmer and allow the mixture to sit until the sugar is completely dissolved. Do not bring the mixture up to a full boil, as the Pandan powder will cause it to foam up substantially, as can happen with other syrups like honey syrup. Once homogenous, bottle in an air-tight, sterilized bottle and keep in the fridge.

What is Pandan?

Every so often, I come behind my bar to play around with a completely new foreign flavor. In this case, this cocktail is the product of my fascination with Pandan.

Pandan is a tropical grass found throughout Asia, and is commonly used as a mean to flavor local cuisines.

The flavor of Pandan is quite like a combination of vanilla and coconut, contextualized by the grass-like nature of the plant and the resulting flavor that produces.

It’s delightfully light and complex, especially compared to products that attempted to emulate its component flavors like commercial syrups.

I was introduced to Pandan through a local Asian deli called “Cravings Deli” in Portage, MI. Nestled inside the Pacific Rim Asian food market, this little spot serves up delicious food and boba tea, for which one is the flavors is Pandan and black syrup.

I get that exact order every single time, and it is always amazing.

Since being introduced to this flavor, I elected to utilize it in the context of cocktails by making the above mentioned syrup.

~~~~~

The Pandan Sour is very light and citrusy, but doesn’t lack backbone.

The primary sweetener being a modified orgeat gives the drink the necessary “bass notes” that allow the flavor to pop as it rolls across your tongue.

This low, sweet flavor of the Pandan syrup is cut by bright citrus and given evolution by the herbal notes of the blanc vermouth. I used Dolin Blanc while developing this recipe and it worked phenomenally, though a more robust Blanc vermouth might fair better.

The botanicals of the gin give this melange of flavors a common partner off of which to express themselves, and all told the cocktail that results is deeply smile inducing and pleasant.

I think cocktails need to be given more unhinged sounding names.

“According to the recipe book, this one is called The Ruination of Mankind.”

“Yeah this is a gin based cocktail, it’s called Edith Keeler Must Die.”

“I’ve prepared a specialty consisting of triple sec and vermouth. I like to call it The Final Insult.”

And so on.

You get the idea.

Learning bartending is so fun

#for months ive been begging the bartender at my job to teach me how to bartend #because we have a lot of downtime on our shifts together. and i like to learn new shit #and yesterday it was dead af so finslly he said 'do you want to learn to bartend?' #so he filled a bottle with water and for the first hour he just had me pour shots until i was consistently getting the right measurement #then he said 'okay were gonna make some cocktails' #and he would say 'okay a six count of vodka. a three count of triple sec. a three count of lime juice' or whatever #and i would take my little water bottle and pour it into the shaker #and then shake all of my ice water together #and he taught me like. a dry martini has dry vermouth in it. and dry vermouth is clear so it only goes into coear liquors #whereas sweet vermouth isnt coear and goes into not clear liquors. and the dofference between well and top shelf #and serving etiquette. and what a one and one is #one and ones are my fav because theyre easy. its stuff like vodka cranberry. gin and tonic. rum and coke #a shot of liquor and then fill the rest with the other stuff #he told me a bunch of stuff and not all of it stuck but he had fun teaching and i had fun listening

Tomato and tequila go so well together--I know I prefer a Tía Maria over a regular Bloody Mary myself--and I had some leftover juice from a can of tomatoes recently that begged to be made into some sort of cocktail. Instead of going with a Bloody Mary variation, I kept it a little more simple with some tomato juice, pepperoncini brine, dry vermouth, and tequila, and…the result was really good and then made better with a sprinkling of Tajín and some grasshopper salt.

A little unconventional, but still a great way to get a savory cocktail without having to go to too much trouble.
