Advanced Techniques - Cocktail Pods (Reverse Spherification)
🕑 Added 2019-10-16 05:34:26 +0000 UTCThe internet has a strange fascination with consuming things in pod form, fortunately the tide has turned from laundry detergent to cocktails. Here I discuss the science behind "reverse spherification", the technique used to create these fun cocktail pods that everyone is talking about.

we can make a liquer like this for a garnish cocktail? and we have to put in the fridge to save it??
Hmm, how cold is your freezer and what is the cocktail spec you're using? I put a shot glass of vodka in my freezer and measure the temp the next day using a kitchen thermometer. My freezer is -6 degrees F which will freeze any cocktails under 30% abv (which is almost all cocktails after being diluted through shaking/stirring)

I tried making the cocktails, but they are not freezing properly. They are still liquid. Does that mean I didn't measure enough Calcium Lactate Gluconate?
Good question! Calcium Lactate has about 2x the calcium salt content as Calcium Lactate Gluconate, so you only use half as much, in this case 1% of the cocktail by weight (instead of 2% for CLG)

In the Aviary cocktails, you used Calcium Lactate, but in this one you used Calcium Lactate Glucontate. Could I use either one, or is the specific type important?
