  • Have you heard about the Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey recall? It came out this week that Fireball has been pulled from shelves for supposedly having an antifreeze ingredient that was a cause for concern among regulators. So what did we do to cope? We made our own! Check out Brandi's recipe for a cinnamon-flavored whiskey-based liquor and let us know what you think.

    Chem major here (chem peeps represent). Please stop spreading the notion that chemicals in general are harmful. Yes, there are a handful of chemicals that if you ingest/touch you will be hurt, injured, or even die. But i quote from my professor, "the poison is in the dosage."
    I might offend some people about this statement (i mean no harm; peace yo), but one way to look at everything around us is by its chemical composition. The human body as you know it is just a set of chemical reactions that stop when we die. (Or we die when it stops? anyway) Everything is chemicals. If i told you that a mango has over 20 different toxins, I bet you will still eat one. Because - say it with me - the poison is in the dosage.
    It is the fear of "chemicals" that drives the irrationality of some decisions. What people need is attentiveness and critical thinking over the chemicals around them, not a blind fear and aversion to anything "chemical."
    ...But i will still try the recipe because it sounds really delicious and cheaper. LOL

      Exactly correct. You are a rare breed... An intelligent commentator. And to throw in a quote from a song I wrote a long time ago..."Everything's a poison, Everything's a cure. It's all in the dose you take and if the stuff is pure."

      Propylene glycol is actually in vape oil (electronic cigarettes, vaporizer, whatever you want to call it). And from what I've heard, that's "food grade". Ethylene glycol is what's really harmful.

    well, considering the fact that propylene glycol isn't harmful to humans, I would still drink it. It is a multi-tasker, and people just get scared when they hear chemical names.
    It is mainly just used as an anti-freeze due to the fact that it has such a low freezing point, due to the fact that is is an alcohol.

    • @UltimateAmethyst
      @UltimateAmethyst 9 років тому +2

      Yeah, it's only an additive in antifreeze.

    • @joshuathomsen
      @joshuathomsen 8 років тому +5

      So was alcohol at one point. Guess what, water was as well. *gasp* water must be bad because it was used as an additive/solvent in things that could harm us!
      And that is why such a line of thinking is not accurate.

Day 2 taste test got it already spicy and sweet. The aroma had completely changed and it was pretty much identical to the original. Now I only need to make moar

  • @Drew_Hurst
    @Drew_Hurst 6 років тому

    PG dehydrates you, increases effects of hangover, is synthetic, not needed in Fireball other than to make a drink that is a fake liquer more thick, oily and sweet, like a natural liquer.
    If you don't care about being overcharged for watered down whiskey and artificial flavours and oily fillers then drink up.
    Don't forget to eat lots of the other foods PG is in too because, well because it makes cheap, bland, artificial products taste more like real food.
    I like the sound of this infusion in the video, would omit the peppers though,
    THANKS :)

  • @Ryhla

    Some countries require labels have to include every chemical used in production of food items. Propylene Glycol is part of the coolant in refrigeration and not in the whiskey itself. So Fireball is completely safe to drink.

    Tried and doesn't taste like fireball at all. It's good, you can definitely taste natural cinnamon, but doesn't taste like fireball. Maybe cause fireball might be artificially flavored, and therefore tastes like candy. I'd say if you want it to taste really like fireball, infuse the whisky with cinnamon candy instead.

    • @450rhino1
      @450rhino1 2 роки тому +1

      I agree 100%. Bought a bottle of whiskey,$26.00 canadian, added simple sugar, cinomon sticks and red chili peppers. Set and shook for five days. It had a cinomon taste but a terrible whickey aftertaste. Added cinomon hearts, ground up. Better. Added one pint of FIREBALL. Better. Trying to save this mess. Find another receoi folks. Don't waste good whiskey by using this one.:(

      Wrong on both accounts. Brown sugar is not raw sugar. Commercial brown sugar is made by adding molasses to white sugar. Second of all, there are no chemicals involved in the process to make white sugar, it's a 100% natural process. You can buy organic white sugar.
