You hear a lot of toffery about how different glasses affect your drinking experience to the point where it's criminal if you use the wrong glass for the wrong drink. Maybe that can be an episode, given it's literally to do with "how to drink". Exploring glasses and whether or not it really does affect the drinking experience _that_ much. Could even wring out two episodes from it, given wine is pretty much a world unto itself, and then spirits and cocktails have their own thing going on.

@Walrus907 Жыл бұрын
"The Drink v2" in my opinion should have been made in a stand alone glass up until you want to shake it, then prepare your chilled shaker, pour in 1/4oz of absinthe, shake just the absinthe, and then poor it out leaving only what clings to the ice and shaker itself. Then introduce the rest and shake again. I would also forgo the lime boat personally and just float a spoon or two of the OFTD over the snow and garnish with 2 soaked cherries in the same rum. As far as the pineapple juice goes, I can see how the sweetness might throw off the balance (its a cloying sweetness thay doesn't have much secondary character) and might replace it with like a blood orange juice instead? Might have to bring in a background sweetener at that point though. I know my opinion wasnt really asked for, but I figure as another person who likes to build cocktails you may find another perspective interesting.
@rolux4853 Жыл бұрын
@@Walrus907interesting idea! Thank you your unwanted input, I love hearing about peoples drink ideas who have some knowledge about cocktails. I just have a few questions: Do you really think your way of using the absinthe gives a drink any difference in taste, then just adding a little bit? I really dislike the idea of discarding a perfectly good spirit, just to have a more fancy looking presentation. It made Sazeracs really dislikable for me, even if I’m a total high quality old fashioned guy amd like the taste of Sazerac a lot on occasion. It’s especially good on hot humid nights and even better when there’s a bit of voodoo in the air ;) Then I just added dashes of absinthe and it tasted completely the same but I didn’t felt guilty afterward so I use this for every cocktail these days where it says „coat the glass“ or something similar. To me good fresh pineapple juice has an amazing flavor profile that definitely has complexity and really is more tart as sweet if it’s completely natural. When the pineapple is exactly right and not to ripe it is amazing and definitely not to sweet. If you take regular store bought stuff your absolutely right however!

I think peak HTD is experimenter flavor-pioneer Greg. An episode or series where you just take a series of slightly off the cuff ingredients or liquers (Domaine Canton’s Ginger Liquer comes to mind) and try to find interesting ways to showcase/use them sounds super entertaining. Not just Pirates Bay Sun Tan Lotion and other nightmares, but using just some slightly odd ingredients and playing with them to see what they can do.

Something I designed largely out of spite was something called the Evil Wizard. Originally it used Fireball - because you gotta have a fireball if you're an evil wizard, right? - but Fireball tastes like it should be part of some kind of industrial ore-refining process so I'm using a different kind of whiskey that someone might actually want to drink. It is intended as a very spirit-forward "blow your face off" cocktail, because I send it to friends I don't like much. Here's the recipe!:- --- *EVIL WIZARD* 2oz Black Bottle blended whisky (you want a sweet but smoky whisky that would work with cinnamon, and also if you use a single malt in a cocktail I will shoot you) 2oz Mr. Black coffee liqueur (combination of colour and combination with the cinnamon flavours) 1oz Lambs navy rum (any very, very dark overproof rum will work, but I like navy rum because I hate myself) 1-2 dash Ango (is it even a cocktail without a dash of ango?) Cinnamon sticks in a cocktail smoker TO MAKE: Build in the shaker and shake with your usual method, one big cube and one crushed cube. Shake until combined, then pour into a mixing glass. Infuse with cinnamon smoke. Then gated pour into an Old Fashioned glass over a large ice cube. Add smoke for decoration. Serve to someone you don't like. =]

I'm upset with myself I missed the chance to send something in; I'll have to check out more of your social media for next time. That being said! With the end of Winter creeping up, The Melty Snowman is the strangest-best concoction I ever stumbled across. 2 parts Irish Creme (Baileys or other) 3 Parts Dr. Pepper, and 3-5 Parts Milk. Dry shake to froth with the carbonation from the Dr Pepper. Tastes like a Whopper Malt Ball candy, drinks like a Milkshake

Could only imagine how many people post drink concoctions ideas on your KZfaq channel comments and DM to your Instagram page. If this episode has enough traction to do more episodes creating drink idea from submissions to your various social media platforms. I have posted a couple ideas that could be good or perhaps really bad idea like the Deadite idea I had which is basically a coffee version of a Corpse Reviver.

Had Woodford Reserve & Pineapple Juice, definitely suggest that as a switchout for the Wild Turkey, although you might want something stronger to combat the other ingredients

This drink is quickly rising on my favorite drink menu, been having a hard time finding the name of the drink in my black book so I will post it here to see if anyone recognizes it. Recipe goes as followed: 1. Add ice to a glass (you can shake but I prefer to stir this drink, less dishes), can be served hot as well just remove the ice for the hot version 2. Add 2 oz. of Kalua or Coffee Liqueur whichever is available 3. Add 2 oz. Crème de Cacao or Godiva white/dark or Chocolate liqueur, use which you prefer I typically use Godiva 4. Add .5 oz. Crème de Menthe or 1 sprig of Mint Muddled or Peppermint Schnapps, use which you prefer I typically use Crème de Menthe 5. Fill remainder of glass with one of the following: Half and Half, Almond Milk (If lactose intolerant), Hot chocolate (If you want the hot version) 6. Stir or Shake 7. Garnish how you like, I don't garnish unless I am making this for company 8. Enjoy Quick Warning: This drink will sneak up on you real quick, so please don't drink and drive. Great drink if you want to unwind/need a nap. Thanks in advance to anyone that recognizes this drink. :)

My favourite pre drinks cocktail I make by the litre. 75ml citrus juice of your taste (I go for 2 parts lime to 1 lemon) 50ml limoncello, 50ml Cointreau, 150ml of dark navy rum or gin depending on your mood (it really changes the drink which base you use) top up with tonic, add sugar/simple to taste

I love your content already, but I think this kind of video is something special, I love seeing not just what the community comes up with for mixes, but what you do to adapt it to your liking. I would love to see more of this. Make it maybe like a weekly thing apart from your regular content. Who knows, might be incentive for people to join your patreon so they can submit their recipes in the discord for a chance to see you make it on screen. Sounds like a banger to me! Whatever you do, keep being you, you're awesome.

this format reminds me of those old recipe booklets put together by a community somewhere with a bunch of recipes people just kinda made up or have in their family, my grandma had a bunch stuffed in her bookcase. i enjoyed this more than i expected tbh for something where i dont really have an expected theme to the episode or drinks coming into it, maybe there could be, like it could be by type of drink (sours, tiki, martini, a certain type of spirit, idk) or location (i wonder what drinks there are that are more common in other places), i think of a lot of the videos Beryl Shereshewsky does where people send in like what they have for breakfast where theyre from or what they put on toast or rice or how they prepare eggs and so on a and she makes and tries it. its neat cause it feels like theres community participation, it feels more social and thats fun.

Here's a recipe I came up with for sipping outside on summer evenings: 1.5oz Amaro CioCiaro 1oz Disaronno 0.25oz Lemon Juice Stir and serve on ice I've never garnished, but I'm sure a lemon twist/wheel would work nicely Best of luck at the idea factory!
