Last week I Started a new series on Batched cocktails.
To remind you what a batched cocktail is—making them by the pitcher or the bottle—means that when you're hosting, you don't have to also be filling shakers and knocking over the bitters, rattling ice and accidentally squirting yourself in the eye with lemon juice. The drinks are made. Dinner will come later. Just pour and join your guests.
Just like our last series on freezer door cocktails doing batched cocktail takes a little math to make it work. But the process is pretty simple
First off a Gallon is 128 oz. You then need to get the formula for the cocktail. For this cocktail in this series the forumala is
1.5-1-.5
OR simply said is 1.5 oz of citrus vodka, 1 oz Triple Sec or Orange Liqueur .5 oz Fresh lime juice
I introduced the Cosmo to our Podcast listeners on April 7, 2021. If you want to go back and read more about the creation of this cocktail, I would encourage you to go into the Bourbon Gospel archives and look for it.
Don’t worry about taking notes as I am giving out the ingredients and instructions. They are always posted on bourbongospel.com
