Episodes
  • Ep. 133 Sugar, Bitters, and a Sequel: The Champagne Cocktail
    Feb 18 2026
    In part one of a two-part history series, Uncle Brad traces the origins of one of the oldest cocktails on record, connecting its lineage directly to the Old Fashioned, explaining why 19th century Americans were drinking cocktails with their eggs and toast, and uncovering a surprising twist: the way we make this drink today is essentially the inverse of how it was originally prepared. The history of champagne itself is a story big enough to deserve its own episode - we'll get into that next week. Chill your coupe, make sure your champagne is cold, and stay tuned - this is only the beginning. Champagne Cocktail Take 1 sugar and place it on your barspoon Add 2 – 3 dashes of Angostura bitters to the cube Fill a chilled champagne flute or coupe glass ½ way with Brut champagne Drop it the sugar cube into your glass and top off with more champagne No garnish needed The Art of Drinking IG: @theartofdrinkingpodcast Website: www.theartofdrinkingpodcast.com Join Jules IG: @join_jules TikTok: @join_jules Website: joinjules.com Uncle Brad IG: @favorite_uncle_brad This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast IG: @reddrockmusic www.reddrockmusic.com Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Ep. 131 Between the Sheets: A Cocktail Worth the Scandal
    Feb 4 2026
    Uncle Brad and Jules explore the sophisticated and slightly scandalous Between the Sheets cocktail in this episode of The Art of Drinking. Uncle Brad walks through a few potential origin stories for this Prohibition-era classic - a variation on the Sidecar that balances cognac, rum, triple sec, and lemon juice into a drink worthy of its suggestive name. Meanwhile, Jules transforms the 1930s original with her signature tropical twist, bringing sun-soaked flavors to the elegant base. Whether you prefer your Between the Sheets straight from the Jazz Age or with a vacation vibe, this episode delivers both history and innovation in equal measure. Between The Sheets Glass: Chilled coupe glass Garnish: Lemon peel Directions & Ingredients In shaker add ¾ oz Cognac ¾ oz Plantation 3 star rum A scant ounce of Cointreau 2 tsp of fresh lemon juice (also known as 1/3 oz) Pinch of sea salt or 2 drops of saline solution (20g salt to 80g water) ¼ oz simple syrup (optional) Shake 20 seconds Double Strain into chilled coupe glass Add lemon peel garnish Tropical Sheets In shaker add 3/4 ounce cognac 1 ounce Coconut Fat Washed Rum 3/4 ounce Orange Curacao 1/2 ounce Mexican Lime juice ¼ ounce orgeat syrup Double Strain into chilled coupe glass The Art of Drinking IG: @theartofdrinkingpodcast Website: www.theartofdrinkingpodcast.com Join Jules IG: @join_jules TikTok: @join_jules Website: joinjules.com Uncle Brad IG: @favorite_uncle_brad This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast IG: @reddrockmusic www.reddrockmusic.com Learn more about your ad choices.
