I've been getting into cocktails a little more, picked up Modern Classic Cocktails from Death & Co. So far I've just started with the Oaxaca Old-Fashioned and loved it -- anyone familiar with the book or bar have any recommended favourites?
Some of my favourites are: John/Tom Collins, Gin Fizz, Americano, Long Island iced tea even if finding a place that makes it right it's hard and Moscow Mule.
Then there are the "party cocktails" so badly and cheaply made like Mojito and Gin Tonic, had way too many of those that I can't even see them anymore.
I used to enjoy Pisco Sour as well but I no longer drink that because of the egg white.
Is there a cocktail called the Americano? I'm most familiar with that term from the coffee world, curious what it's used for on the cocktail front.
I've been a cooking a lot for more with Chicken fond these days. Reduces the number of pans I use for cooking, and cooking veggies in the same pan collects a ton of the left-over flavours.
Will highly recommend trying it out.
