Advanced Techniques - How To Make The "Fog Burner"
🕑 Added 2017-03-02 15:26:07 +0000 UTC Patrons! Here's a sneak peek at my next video.I created the "Fog Burner" cocktail as an homage to San Francisco, where on most days the morning fog is burned away by the afternoon sun. A mezcal negroni is served inside a hollow ice ball and presented under a smoke-filled glass.

Hi Ricardo! Yes, Campari is a bit of a polarizing flavor, most people don't enjoy their first negroni in my experience. I'd suggest trying to swap the Campari for Aperol which is a bit less bitter and more sweet. Carpano Antica is more robust of a vermouth and a bit sweeter which I find holds up better against the mezcal or bourbon variants. Finally, you can try adding a pinch of salt to try and further bring out the sweetness and temper the bitter flavors. Check out my video on salt to learn more about that
Hi Nick. I have a quick question. I've been experimenting a lot with the Campari/Sweet Vermouth cockatils and I've found that some of my guests feel the Campari is too overpowering. I really enjoy difference between the Boulevardier and the Negroni. I'm looking forward to trying it with Mezcal. I'm using Martini & Rossi Rosso Vermouth. Will using Carpano Antica Formula vermouth make a big difference? Should I try less Campari?
