New Orleans' best cocktails: The Pimm's Cup

[worthmoremusic]

stunning bar...but then again it IS the Ritz Carlton...

[nunubeest]

now that is skill he rolled the drink and it still came out as art

[jotazores]

My God where did you learn to do this? the biggest nonsense I've ever seen ... already noticed the filth you doing?

...

you do not have any hygiene ...

who is the barman who is a drink from one cup to another?

[auaaron11]

@jotazores unless he took a sip before passing the drink from one cup to another where is the hygiene problem?

[ManosRK]

That's the AWESOMEST drink i've ever seen beeing made!!!!

[pauljoemoe]

Very nice in taste. If you want to make it the easy way just use Pimm's and Ginger Ale. I was even able to mix that after i had a few :-) btw. very posh bartender i must say

[33fgfhjjggy6y]

im british and i dont get what vegetable he was on about

[etagloh]

@33fgfhjjggy6y Borage. Which, as Brits know, rhymes with porridge. But he's in Nawlins, so I'll let him go with boraaajzhe. Though not the blueberries. And he deals with the sad lemonade situation in the US pretty well.

"uh" yeah "uh " pimms "uh" nice "uh"

I got a bottle of this stuff and I don't get it. Tastes like a watered down gin with some vermouth in it.

OMG! This guy was not prepared for the shoot. Rummaging around for the tools under the bar, forgetting the right way for the mandoline, using his hands to fill ice in a glass and slapping mint in your hand before sticking it in the drink and then fingering the mint in the glass. LOL! Where's the health dept? What's with the empty mixing glass on the mat? Never uses it but does get another to "BOX" the drink! I don't think berries are traditional PIMM's Cup but WTVR!

@bah10da89148 Slapping (or "spanking," as the trade term goes) the mint is a standard bartender technique. What, do you think people who prepare your food and drinks never touch anything? Sheesh.

[Rachiejane1]

@bah10da89148 Fingering the mint in the glass ... yes, I know I'm being childish but this made me laugh!

[jazzmunky]

he threw a perfectly good half lemon away!

But he is a total legend of a bartender dude!

WTF if i want a fruit salad I would order a pina colada!

Pimms are really good!

[bcoverss]

@erick5150tube Hey it's better than a V8. Veggies and all.

[Norberto12Verde]

Uh yeah

[cartyGBR]

As an avid Pimm's-ologist I have the following problems:

1) YOU CAN'T PUT A BLUBERRY IN PIMM's!!! It's just not on.

2) Apples go in PIMM's No.3

3) Regards the "lemonade" issue; just use Sprite then!

Otherwise it was a good effort. The slapping of the mint made me very proud.

TALLY HO DEAR BOY!

Down the hatch!

(Im British by the way, this is completely normal behaviour for me)

[squeeks1234]

@cartyGBR No need to be an elitist. Welcome to the world of bar tending where making proprietary drinks and modification of existing drinks is rampant.

[austinrfnd]

@cartyGBR You can't give Chris shit for putting a fucking blueberry in the drink and then substitute a main ingredient, the lemonade, for Sprite and justify it.  You're an idiot.

Chris is back. Sazerac posted above.
