Alberta,
How I really dislike to leave negative feedback because I really really like you and wish you all the best, but so much of your info is incorrect. I could go through all of your vids but this one is the only one I feel like commenting on at this moment in time. Bascically, you cannot label it a "White Russian". In this episode you have to call it a Vanilla White Russian or a White Russian in the Skyy, etc. Please respect the classic/standard cocktails. When you change an ingredient or the name of a cocktail please consider yourself as one of the serious bartenders/mixologists/whatever out here. The masses do not need to be further confused. We are on the same team.
Only the best,
Cheryl Charming
Hey Alberta, just wanted to say you've inspired me. I actually asked for a boston shaker for Christmas this year. I'm really hoping I get one so I can host a party and make the cocktails you've taught me all about! Can't wait to see more episodes!
