The ending I finally shot the other day. The idea here was that it's 2020, the roaring 20's, prohibition, bath tub gin, get it But now, 2020 isn't about the roaring 20's at all, it's about something else. So, who knows if this is still relevant Idunno. Long story short, I kinda made my own gin. Yes, it's brown/yellow and ugly, yes I had to cancel half the plan of this episode, but it's gin dang it, and I made it, so it's mine. Basically, gin is infused neutral grain spirits, I know it's a bit more complicated than that if you want to get technical, but really that's what the stuff is. So I did a little research and stood on the shoulders of giants (Namely, Jeffrey Morgenthaler) and did three infusions and blended them to make my own "Gin". Batch A (Morgenthaler) 750 ml. Everclear 20 g. Dried Juniper Berries 8 g. Coriander, Crushed 2 g. Dry orange peel 2 g. Dry lemon peel 3 g. cinnamon stick 1 cardamom pod, crushed Batch B 750 ml. Everclear 40 g. Dried Juniper 6 g. Coriander 15 g. Bitter orange peel 2 g. Winter Green 9 g. dired lime Batch C 750 ml. Everclear 35 g. Dried Juniper 1 cinnamon stick 50 g. Fresh orange peel 20 g. fresh lemon peel 20 g. fresh lime peel My Ideal blend worked out to be 3 parts batch A, 2 Parts batch B, and 1 Part Batch C.
