Tequila Cosmopolitan
Submitted by dschommer on Tue, 03/24/2009 - 16:09
We're going cosmo in this episode, covering the Tequila Cosmopolitan in all its glory. The recipe is very similar to our Perfect Margarita with cranberry juice sans Agave Nectar. We're happy to introduce a few new sponsors to the show, including Averna Amaro and Awesomedrinks.com!
You support us by supporting our sponsors, not to mention they've got awesome products - we wouldn't bring them on board if we didn't believe it for ourselves.

Suggestion
You should stand up while doing your show and have a little taller table. Just seemed awkward a few times like when you had to lean back to shake up the drink and when you couldn't get the leverage to squeeze the lime.
Â
Otherwise cool show.
Nah, it looks much better
Nah, it looks much better than sitting + it's "commong man" coctails
than - when
than - when
Yeah, hopefully a bar table soon
We've been spying a few of those "portable" pre-made bars to use instead of a table with a couple stools. That will solve many of the problems, unfortunately they're not cheap :(
Â
However, I also lean back because the shotgun mic is above the head and shaking the shaker into the mic is quite loud and abnoxious for my camera lady (my wife Jennifer).
Can't she just take off
Can't she just take off headphones when you're few seconds away from shaking?
yeah, she does
She takes them off but it spikes the volume levels as well, so when we go to re-level you can only do "so much" when you have huge spikes in the audio stream.
Yeah Sponsors!
First, I really wanted to say SEE-YEAH-LOW right, I really did. But when it came down to getting the pronounciation right I forgot to contact the Cielo folks to get the pronounciation. I hate when that happens. Stay tuned for the next episode when I have to pronounce Orgeat (I think it's ORG-GAY but I say OR-GATE)
Â
Yes, we've got sponsorship(s). Next week I think you'll see Partida Tequila and a few others. Awesomedrinks.com is with us for a long haul (you'll see them for MANY episodes to come). They've got a great synergy with the show as I, myself, put out the call for help finding collins glasses and a viewer suggested homebarsupplys.com which is now known as awesomedrinks.com.
Â
The show started in October and we're getting a large audience fairly quickly.
Sponsers?
I have only been watching for a short while now, but have you ever had sponsers before? Way to go! I drink Amaro after pasta on Sunday...it makes the tummy go away. BTW - Cielo is pronounced SEE-YEAH-LOW.
Oh yeah, and you get a special mention next episode :)
For suggesting a new dark rum which I picked up, I credited "Richard" with the suggestion :) If you want, I can try to get your twitter address in there if you send it off tonight/early tomorrow. I can also link it up in the episode.
Which Richard?
If you are talking about me it is http://twitter.com/RichardRitter. If you are not talking about me it is still http://twitter.com/RichardRitter.
Keep up the good work, and keep the quality shows coming.
I believe you suggested the dark rum
I'll check, but I think it was you. I don't know any other richards offhand. :)
