After lunch, Li Zexuan remembered that Han Yuxi wanted to try the new fruit wine in the morning, but was interrupted by Li Chengqian and Yan Shaoning.

Thinking of this, Li Zexuan went to Mingyuexuan to find Han Yuxi.

"Master, are you here?" Han Yuxi said happily.

"Well, isn't this when I was about to taste the new fruit wine in the morning, was it interrupted? I came here in the afternoon to try it." Li Zexuan nodded.

"Sit here, young master, and Yuxi will pour you a drink."

Li Zexuan nodded with a smile, and Han Yuxi walked into the back room to get wine.

After a while, Han Yuxi was seen holding a wine gourd and came out with a wine glass.

"Master, try it." Han Yuxi poured a glass of wine and handed it over.

Li Zexuan took the wine glass and sniffed it lightly. A mellow wild fruit fragrance penetrated into his nostrils, making him feel as if he was in the fields and mountains. Li Zexuan took a sip. It was sweet and mellow. Although he drank it once at Hanjiazhuang last time, he still felt amazing when he drank it again.

"Yuxi, who did you learn your brewing skills from? I don't think many brewers in the city are as good as you."

Li Zexuan was drinking the fruit wine and couldn't help but ask in doubt.

Hearing Li Zexuan's compliment, Han Yuxi smiled and said, "Young master has won the prize, how can Yuxi's craftsmanship be compared with the wine masters in the city. This winemaking skill was taught to me by my mother. My father has always liked to drink my mother. After my mother passed away, I made wine for my father."

Unexpectedly, Yuxi's mother was also a master winemaker. Li Zexuan continued to ask: "Then Yuxi, besides fruit wine, do you know how to make other wines?"

Han Yuxi nodded and said: "Yes, my mother also taught me white wine and sake, including Yingzhou Fushui, Wucheng Ruoxia, Hezhong Sangluo, Yuanzhou Yichun, Xingyang Tuguchun, Fuping Shijongchun, Jiannan Burning Spring, Hedong Ganhe Grape, Lingnan Yunxi Boluo, Yicheng Jiuwen, Xunyang Water, Qidi Lu Wine, etc."

Han Yuxi snapped her fingers and brought the wines she could brew one by one.

Li Zexuan was stunned when he heard it, is this okay?

"Uh, Yuxi, how can your mother make so many kinds of wine?"

Han Yuxi thought about it and said, "I heard from my mother that my grandfather Du Daoling was the most famous winemaker in the former Sui Dynasty when he was alive. Even Wei Xuancheng and Wei Shangshu of my dynasty praised his old man's winemaking skills. I learned the craft from my grandfather.”

Li Zexuan asked curiously, "Who is Wei Xuancheng? Does he have a lot of research on winemaking?"

Han Yuxi's eyes widened and she couldn't believe it: "Young master, you don't even know the minister, Zuocheng Wei Zheng, do you?"

ah? Wei Xuancheng turned out to be Wei Zheng. Li Zexuan had heard that Wei Zheng was not only a direct minister, but also a master winemaker in his previous life. He never thought that Han Yuxi's grandfather's winemaking skills were even better than Wei Zheng's, which was really surprising.

"Cough, Wei Xuancheng, who does not know Wei Shangshu, I just test you."

Li Zexuan casually said nonsense, regardless of whether Han Yuxi believed it or not, he continued to ask, "Then why didn't you make liquor and sell it before, Yuxi?"

Han Yuxi said sadly: "Hanjiazhuang has not enough grain left over these years, how can there be any surplus grain to make wine?"

Li Zexuan patted his head, so it was.

"Yuxi, do you know why I bought Hanjiazhuang's mountain fruit wine at a high price?"

Han Yuxi said gratefully: "Yuxi knows that the young master is here to help the farmers of our Han family village. Those fruit wines are actually not worth that much money."

Li Zexuan shook his head and said, "Although I want to help Hanjiazhuang, it's not all because of this. When I was in Longhu Mountain, I saw my master often drink a brightly colored wine.

My master said that it was a kind of mixed wine invented by the people at Dashi. After drinking it a few times, my master felt that the taste was very special, so he figured out the recipe and brewed it himself.

There is a very important ingredient in this recipe, which is mountain fruit wine. And the quality of the mountain fruit wine brewed by Yuxiyou can be regarded as the best in fruit wine, and it is the most ideal raw material for this kind of mixed wine.

That's why I bought your mountain fruit wine at a high price, thinking that after the acquisition, I will find a wine master to blend that kind of wine, which will definitely sell well in the future. "

When it comes to what she is best at, Han Yuxi is also very interested and curious: "Master, what is the name of this wine? Is it really that delicious?"

"I heard from my master that this is called a cocktail. As for whether it's good or not, I can't taste wine, and I don't know. But my master has tasted fine wines all over the world, and in the end, he only had a soft spot for this cocktail, and wanted to come to this wine. Shouldn't be bad."

Li Zexuan continued to use Master as a shield.

That's right, what Li Zexuan wants to mix is ​​the cocktail. Li Zexuan and his uncle had seen a movie about a plane crash in a previous life, but I forgot the exact name. A black captain wanted to drink a cocktail on the plane, but he didn't, so he just added wine to the juice as a cocktail and drank it.

One day when his uncle was eating at his house, he suddenly remembered this scene, so he mixed the same amount of Huiyuan 100% orange juice into half a glass of whisky, and it turned out that his uncle enjoyed it very much.

Later, out of curiosity, he also went to the Internet to check the preparation method of cocktails. Cocktails generally use spirits such as rum, tequila, vodka, and whisky as the base wine, and are accompanied by juice, egg white, milk, sugar and other auxiliary materials. , a drink that is stirred or shaken, and can be garnished with lemon slices, fruit or mint leaves at the end.

He can use spirits directly

The existing liquor in the Tang Dynasty was obtained by distillation, and the fruit juice was directly replaced by the fruit wine brewed by Han Yuxi, and the effect should be better. After mixing, add some ice cubes in it. In the hot summer, Li Zexuan believes that no good wine person can resist this temptation.

As for how to get ice cubes, Li Zexuan said that any traveler would know such a simple question. But I have to find a way to get my father to buy a saltpeter mine first, otherwise the price of saltpeter will definitely be expensive when everyone reacts.

When I think about a group of people from the Tang Dynasty, drinking cocktails, this scene is very emotional!

Han Yuxi listened to Li Zexuan's description of the cocktail so well, and couldn't help but be eager to try it: "Then can you let Yuxi try to mix this cocktail?"

Li Zexuan was a little embarrassed. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but he was reluctant. If Han Yuxi was to mix wine, she would definitely try a lot of wine. He was afraid that Han Yuxi would get drunk.

Han Yuxi saw that the young master was embarrassed, thinking that the young master did not want to teach him this formula, and a trace of sadness and sadness flashed in his eyes for a while. He said quickly, "I'm sorry, young master, it was Yuxi who made a rash move."

Seeing her gloomy face, Li Zexuan didn't know that she had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "Yuxi, don't misunderstand, it's not that I don't want you to try it, I'm just worried that when you mix drinks, you will taste too much wine and will drunk."

When Han Yuxi heard this, it turned out that she had misunderstood, her face changed from sadness to joy, and she said embarrassedly: "Young master, you don't need to worry about this matter, Yuxi has a special physique, and no matter how much he drinks since he was a child, he will never get drunk. My father and I will never get drunk. I don't know what happened."

Li Zexuan was shocked and stunned. Is there such a thing? In his previous life, he had also seen on the Internet that there was a kind of person who was born with a thousand cups and not drunk, and was fine with seven or eight catties of liquor. He didn't expect to meet such a strange person in the Tang Dynasty.

"Uh, Yuxi, is what you said true?" Li Zexuan still couldn't believe it.

"Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, you can ask my father."

"Uh uh uh, no, I believe it, I believe it. Then there is no problem. It just so happens that you are also a wine master, Yuxi. I will copy the recipe to you later. As for the ratio of various ingredients, you can try it slowly.

After you go back to Hanjiazhuang this time, tell your father that when I am done with some things in hand, you will come to Chang'an to help me mix drinks. On behalf of my father, I am trying to hire you as the bartender of our Zuixianlou, with a monthly salary of ten how? "

Teaching this formula to Han Yuxi was more reassuring than teaching it to others. Li Zexuan really didn't expect this to go so smoothly.

Han Yuxi was very surprised when she heard this, she didn't expect that she could finally help the young master, and quickly said: "Young master, you have helped us so much in Hanjiazhuang, how can Yuxi ask for wages and help the young master mix drinks, Yuxi is already very happy ."

Li Zexuan insisted: "This monthly salary is what you deserve. You must have it. If you don't want it, I will no longer help Hanjiazhuang in the future."

Han Yuxi could only nod her head in embarrassment.
