As a German, I'll never stop being amused how clever marketing turned Jägermeister into a party drink for college jocks in the US when it originally was something your grandma would drink as digestive after Sunday dinner here.
I'll admit I didn't pick it up from marketing, I like the kinda liquorice flavor, and a shot of it works better than cough syrup at night. I do find it funny that it's more a grandma drink, though I guess I can see that too 😅
We don't really have a culture of using digestifs in the US and you'd be looked at like you were a drunk if you said you did use alcohol to help digest food. So, they had to find something to do to get sales in America.
I FEEL INTENSELY VALIDATED. A fireball sour is something that I've been convinced of for years. I've had a lot of people look at me like I'm crazy, but everyone I've convinced to try it has found it surprisingly good. (I might have to try it with the Jager now, though.)
The Old Car is my recommendation. You get to ruin two drinks in one; An old fashioned and a side car. I'd say just make both drinks and shake them together in an old soup can.
heres a dark idea for one of these, i am gonna call it a Chernobyl Vice. a miami vice that uses parrot bay pineapple rum, and replacing all fruit juices with fruit flavored vodkas. so a strawberry vodka and a pineapple vodka. a cocktail so strong, so pungent, its like stepping into the red zone.
Just casually dropping the Phlegethon reference 😂. I remember being flabbergasted when Greg mentioned Dadaism for the fireball Bloody Mary, but now this?! Greg is a well read man!
Same, I was literally thinking, "Oh, he's gonna mention the Styx even when Phlegethon is the river of fire." But then he just goes out there and says it.
He did an entire episode on drinks based on the videogame Hades which takes place in all three parts of the realm, including the Phlegethon, so I'm not surprised
Watching tipsy Greg is always fun.watching hammered Greg making impromptu cocktails is like watching an abstract expressionist painter painting with his gut
oh of course you use Black Button's Bourbon Cream AFTER they let me go. I worked there, loved it, restructuring in the company, all that jazz, but yeah. that bourbon cream does NOT like to be added to much, it'll just keep curdling. we used to make a fireside cocoa with it (1.5 oz bourbon cream + 1/2 oz peppermint syrup + hot chocolate + you can make a whipped cream with the bourbon cream that we put on top). they make a good product.
@@terminus2010 Harlem is Gin, Maraschino and Pineapple Juice. Brooklyn is Rye, Sweet Vermouth, Amer and Maraschino. Bronx is Gin, Sweet Vermouth, Dry Vermouth and Orange Juice. What we need is a Staten Island.
I think the improved midori cocktail was close to genius- I propose lengthening with a white rum, tiki bitters, and a lime twist. But it may lack in bass. I think midori’s problem is how much treble there is means that when it features in a cocktail as the main spirit, you have to find every bass note you can to counter it.
Which is why my first instinct regarding the midori was to reduce the amount put into it in the first place. 1 ounce should do wonders, though the white rum would also work well.
I want to see someone make a drinkable version of this, because I need a good taunt drink to order people when I offer to buy a round and they tell me to just get 'em whatever. "I got you a Mom Collins!" "A what?!"
Man Greg, that Improved Midori reminds me of the drink i workshopped at home. 1.5 oz Midori, 1.5 oz Triple sec, .5 oz lemon juice, .5 oz Spirytus (polish alcohol 96%abv). Shake over ice. Hard pour, and lengthen with 7-up. It comes out neon green and is not half bad. We nicknamed it the Midori Meltdown
"It tastes the way male cat piss smells." Jiminy Crickets! You have a way with words!! That's some eye watering genius right there! I'll be darned if I didn't enjoy this episode greatly!! This was a great one!! I love and prefer the instructionals and the histories and the themed drinks and the fun/new ideas and the educationals/explorations, but these are really fun when they pop up every once in a while!
Don't have the stuff on hand to try it, but I feel like making that with a normal whisky would make basically a better(?) Fireball old fashioned, which just might work
You have inspired me to try a lot of new things in my home bar, some have failed horribly, but some have been awesome! Thank you for the great content, even if you have to suffer it sometimes.
Well, for drinks that one might associate with moms, I can't give inspiration by giving my mom's favorite drink, as she doesn't drink, but my wife is a mom, and I can tell you her favorite drink: Jameson, neat.
I love how you have such refined intuition, as a mixologist, that you seem to instinctively make drinks good even if they have absolutely no right to be.
Your risky sour should've replaced the sugar with a mountain dew syrup reduction. As a side note, i wonder how much corn starch would be needed to stop the lemon from curdling the creme liquor. I know its used in cooking with wine in creme sauces to stop it from curdling.
I’m not done watching the video so idk if Greg revisits it but 8:08 “Mai Thai” I’m actually obsessed now with the idea of a Mai Thai, like maybe replacing the pineapple juice or the orange juice in a Mai Tai with Thai Iced Tea, idk it may be awful or it may be amazing lmao (I’m assuming it would have the sweetened condensed milk in it already but would probably be better without)
I think my favorite part of these kind of videos is when the drink that, for reasons I as a 'barely drinker' don't aftually understand, should by all rights be abominable turns out splendid.
I have notes on the “improved” midori cocktail, as someone who know a LITERALLY NOTHING about mixology or even alcohol a ton and doesn’t drink but is facilitated by breaking down elements of flavors to see what’s in it. What if you did citrus bitters instead of chocolate and maybe club soda and maybe something with a more peanutty flavor profile to help proof it up and some salt… (that’s if you wanna actually maybe make it good) I’m curious if the edits make it good
Mom Collins (after adding the Bourbon Creme) looks more like a "Pit Toilet" if you've ever had the privilege of looking into one early in the morning. Plop-Plop!
This is a really fun idea, I hope to see more cool riffs on this interactive idea. A real fun interactive energy that I haven't seen in another channel
I feel like this one was a lot tamer, but it was still fun. I look forward to more daring bad ideas coming onto the show in a future episode. I'm curious about the Pain Maker, and I still think the Pesto Sour is god tier. Also, how about we ruin an Irish Car Bomb and make it an Irish Car Party? If you're from the isles you know what this means.
editor gone wild here! Love these wack sound and vfx. Totally fits the ocassion. And lets agree that the magical booze box is a thing now. Gregg going off camera and grabbing stuff is just great.
I'm sorry you keep making these terrible cocktail videos, but they are incredibly entertaining. We've got passionfruit syrup on order to try a ding-a-ling :) Also, if there is a Total Wine near you, you should try their Pergote Amaro, which I think is their house brand. It's interesting.
@@howtodrink Sorry, I wasn't clear. Your cocktail videos are awesome. Your (terrible cocktail) videos are fantastic. I'm sorry in that it looks excruciating. People like watching others discomfort, though. I'm not counting myself out of that lot.
I actually had "Risky Sour" when I went to a bar and asked the bartender for a cocktail on Fireball, he suggested a Whiskey Sour and after thinking for a second I decided "Fuck it we ball", he made it without Jager but damn it was good, from that point on it's my favorite "surprise cocktail" I make for people, they usually love it too
I asked for “the most vile thing you can imagine” at a bar. I ended up with: Aperol, Frangelico, and Absolut raspberry, and something else. It tasted like a chocolate orange and I loved it
I kinda wanna see you make good cocktails with "bad" ingredients. Like a cocktail that has malort in it but isn't bad. Or things that have ruined drinks on your channel but balanced properly
Greg, a question on substitutions. I'm supposed to avoid pineapple, but love tropical drinks. What's the best substitute? Orange? Tangerine? Something else? Specifically looking at the parasol daiquiri and Singapore sling.
Jägermeister has wormwood, which is the major ingredient in vermouth and absinthe that gives them their most distinct flavour; its flavour is akin to that of anise, but it's really a different plant altogether. (It also has gentian, and those two contribute heavily to its bitterness; gentian is notably a major ingredient in a tonne of bitters.)
A couple months back a guest of mine ordered a hot and dirty martini - with Jim Beam. I had to confirm they didn’t meant gin, and the bartender made me ask a second time. 😂
"bold fashioned" is the name of a canned cocktail made by Bold Rock (better known for their cider) and available here in Virginia. Trying to turn a short drink into a 12-oz can without saying "serves 3" or something was always going to be a mistake, but they do it as well as one could reasonably expect.
Have you considered doing an episode on how to develop your pallet? You could breakdown the science and art of it, talk about how you developed yours and the culture surrounding spirit tasting. Fun times for all!
I commented on this last ruin a drink video, but I still wanna see a Gin and Phonics. A gin based Bloody Mary with alphabet soup instead of tomato juice. lol I would imagine the combination of gin flavors on top of the mouth feel of having to chew it would be an abomination. lol
For the first two… Egg whites? A risky sour without risking raw egg is a missed opportunity, and in the second having an emulsifier might let you shake the whole thing without curdling?

Hey Greg, A black tai (Mai Tai)
Please do! I keep missing the streams, but this seems fun as hell! It's a cocktail improv show+
The Mom Collins works because any mom worth the title has _undoubtedly_ witnessed far grosser things in her life.
Serving the Risky Sour in anything but a red solo cup feels like the wrong container.
Man has a point.
There’s something very comedic about watching Greg picking alcohols off-camera. It’s like he opens some kind of magical box.
Was worried that was gonna flop
@@howtodrink It's a great sight gag. Probably easy to overdo, but great in these funnier episodes.

That is flippin' hilarious! If only them frat boys knew...
Funny to think about a grandma drinking Jäegermeister lol.
I FEEL INTENSELY VALIDATED.
A fireball sour is something that I've been convinced of for years. I've had a lot of people look at me like I'm crazy, but everyone I've convinced to try it has found it surprisingly good.
(I might have to try it with the Jager now, though.)
I was watching the video and had to get going making one before watching more. Damn it tastes good
Honestly I hate whiskey sours and I hate fireball, but to imagine the two together actually sounds decent.
The Old Car is my recommendation.
You get to ruin two drinks in one; An old fashioned and a side car.

I think the zany episodes should be performed by Gerg, of the rival store Gerg's Groggs.
The Improved Midori Cocktail is the color of a 1970s glass ashtray kept on the table of a Wisconsin supper club.
It’s no surprise it isn’t any good.
When he dropped the shaker, I was sure the drink was floored. It really illustrates the amount of suction that's created as the drink is cooled.
I feel like a "Risky sour" is made with tequila, as most of the times I've seen parties go south tequila is the pivot point for the chaos.
Thread necromancy, Before he went to Jaeger I went "Max Frat" and said... Needs Everclear.

14:51, that gold fashioned turned him into a werewolf for a second, i swear!
Mom collins could also have cream soda instead of the bourbon cream + seltzer to still keep the peaches/cream theme.
