The Ace Cocktail

Ace

ACE
.75 oz. gin (Plymouth)
.25 oz. grenadine (Jack Rudy)
2 tsp. cream
.5 egg white

Shake with ice, pour, sprinkle nutmeg, and serve.

Hands down this is not a good cocktail. Eric picks up on this right away. I, however, don’t really taste the drink and just slug back a mouthful. My second sip is much different because I swish it in my mouth to really taste it. The grenadine is a weird finish to a gin and cream cocktail. Both Eric and I agree that this is another loser.

Eric: “This is just foamy gin.”
Brian: “It’s not bad if you drink it without tasting it. But once you swirl it around in your mouth, it’s terrible.”

SCORES: Brian gives it a mediocre 2. Eric, a strong 1.



Brian Christie envisions a future where all cocktails are made with natural ingredients and love, where hangovers don’t exist, and where everyone wants to experiment, explore, and enjoy life. As a grip/dolly grip, he’s worked on such shows as The O.C., Heroes, Iron Man 2, Gangster Squad, Horrible Bosses 2, Agents of Shield, and most recently Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. When not on set, he can be found traveling the world in search of new experiences and cocktails. His exploits include drinks in Los Angeles, Tokyo, Chicago, Rio de Janeiro, Muskegon, Munich, Boise, Prague, Phoenix, Dublin, San Francisco, Amsterdam, Sydney, and most recently Edinburgh.
