In a recent collaboration, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@KevinKos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Kevin Kos<\/a><\/strong>, the renowned mixologist and YouTube star, takes us through an episode he had been eager to create for a long time.

Acids can also improve mouthfeel, as Kevin mentions from his insights gained through <em>Liquid Intelligence<\/em> by Dave Arnold.
