Keep up the amazing work 😊😊😊❤❤❤
@@ComputerGameAmbiencereminds me of an alcohol (can't remember where from or what it's called) made from chewed dough, the enzymes in spit help break it down and release sugars
Please make a video of the drinks you thought would be horrible and came out great. Maybe even make them better.
When I'm feeling feisty, I'll drink what I call a "Neon Regenerator" Its Sake with an energy drink. Mt Dew used to make a purple energy drink that went surprisingly well with it. Its not good, but its better than it should be.
The Malibu & Milk & Pineapple Rum with Mint shoulda been a "Mali-Moo"! X3
Greg I’m begging you-please do an episode where you look at the tasting notes from a previous episode, and then try to reverse engineer the drink from the notes alone
This sounds like an amazing idea!
Whoa…
yesss! that’s be so fun to watch!
That's an amazing idea, the tasting notes are one of the best parts and make almost no sense out of context.
I see this going one of two ways, either Greg knows himself too well and he’ll remember what it was, or he’s going to create some horrifying creations. Either way I’m into it
Not calling it the Mali-Moo is a huge missed opportunity 😂 🐄
My fiancé was screaming this at the TV.
Moo-libu?
Maliboob
I've absolutely heard it called malimoo before
And likewise for the bourbon half-and-half with Campari? Moo-levardier.
For the balieys and soda, stick to the engineers code " Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away."
I feel like the term he was looking for there was not "perfection" but rather "local maximum"
Who puts baileys and fizzies together?
My prediction for the Baroni was, "this is going to taste like The Worst cough medicine."
Greg: this tastes like purple but it's actually cherry
Cough medicine confirmed.
Alcoholic Pepto Bismol.
Im old school with my drinks and the number of younger bartenders who cant make a whiskey sour blows my mind. Im not old but have old fashioned whiskey tastes. Also has to be made with sour mash whiskey.
"Barkeep, make me a virgin purple drank!"
Taste like purple..
You mean Dimetapp haha
As a young man from southwest Ohio, I can assure you that inventing horrible cocktails is one of our 4 available passtimes. Right behind fighting, screwing, and sleeping.
You forgot finding new ways to make fun of Cleveland
How could you forget yelling at the weather? It's my favorite. Sometimes we get all four seasons in a single day!
Northern Kentucky here - can confirm. Also driving aimlessly with the music too loud until we a) hit something b) get pulled over c) fall asleep d) all of the above.
Hey now, we also have the beautiful hobby of believing in sports teams that always find ways of disappointing us!
@@sammilbauer9252 that’s the whole state, with the exception of the Monsters.
The M&M&P is what I imagine someone who knows that a Piña colada is creamy and tastes like coconut, pineapple, and rum, but has no idea how to actually make one, would do when they spot Malibu, Milk, and Pineapple Rum standing around in someone's kitchen.
I once waited on a guy who ordered something called a Colorado Bulldog, and looked at me crazy when I said I didn’t know what that was. The bartender googled it and found out it’s a White Russian topped with coke.
This man drank six and then ate an entire steak.
thats fucked up
@@daveprice5911some people are animals
He's god
Was the steak well-done? The guy sounds like a cartoon villain
@@4345ghee the sheer *presence.*
I enjoy how unnecessarily classy and dignified Miller's bottles are. Bud would serve beer in garbage bags if they could
I don't know a single person who still drinks bud light. Everyone switched to Miller after that fiasco.
@@whysix3417”that fiasco”
Yeah their sales numbers are doing just fine buddy.
@@whysix3417Listen, it’s all terrible. American lagers, broadly, are truly awful beers. That said, I would happily order a bud light with the knowledge that the mere act might make a certain kind of person frothing mad. I find the idea of that kind of power delicious.
Edited for punctuation.
@@crow-jane why would someone get mad for you drinking bud light? Here in America, we believe in freedom. You have the right to drink whatever you want.
@crowjane2168 same. I don't drink the big American lagers, but would totally do this.
There are milk flavoured soft drinks like Calpico/Calpis where you do mix a milky sirup with seltzer or water, so that Bailey's creation isn't unprecidented.
Melon milkis is so delicious
@@FredrickFreaker I tried calpis in Japan. It's not bad!
Soju + Lemon/Lime Soda + Yakult
There's also the Caribbean (and maybe other places in latin america?) tradition of combining a malt soda with milk.
I've you've ever drank cream soda, it's milk flavoured, that's why it's called "cream". Just after years of cheap flavorings, it's hard to recognize.
This series needs a modified title card with “How (NOT) to Drink”
But it's sometimes not, he sometimes gets a drinkable mixture and then workshops it
I love it when Greg does these "bad drinks" videos and accidentally discovers something he likes.
I’m pretty sure the “improved Bailey’s and soda” curdled was cause of the Mr. Black.
If Mr. Black is made with actual coffee, coffee is slightly acidic. So it might have had just enough acid to curdle the Baileys
This happened to a lot of my attempts to Irish up Sunday coffees. Unfortunately, when you try it with higher-end ground coffees, a lot of them want the acidity present. Which, made those coffee drinks not a treat.
I've tried to use milk that's just started to go off but was still drinkable in my coffee a couple of times.
I discovered that this is a big mistake, because the acidity of the coffee pushes it just over the edge and turns the whole thing into coffee-flavoured curds and whey.
@@nathangamble125 Yeah once it's started down that long dark death spiral, the only thing for it is baking. Sour milk works the same as buttermilk
@@cam4636that or farmers cheese. If you intentionally curdled it with lemon juice or vinegar, you can separate out the whey and you have a perfectly serviceable cottage cheese.
try adding liquor 43 and creamer in your coffee instead @@imightbebiased9311
I REALLY wish Meredith had been there for this episode. Her extra commentary on these drinks is the perfect extra touch
Malibu milk is a pretty common drink on the menu of the area I worked in (bar row near yokota air base). It's usually shaken to foam up a bit here, and is always a pain to make cuz you have to wash the shaker thoroughly afterwards to avoid stank
I drank malibu and milk about 15 -20 years ago.
It's not unheard of around me in Ireland, I've one friend who swears by it
Creams and liquors definitely arent an unusual thing. Bourbon and cream is a good combo too, if you're into those sorts of cocktails.
I think the m&m&p could be done with coconut milk or coconut water to prevent curdling and push more tiki. Maybe reduce the malibu a half ounce and bring the pineapple up to 2 ounces
Always fun to watch Greg go full mad scientist mode, taking throwaways and making something new and improved.
Dr. Frankenstein would be proud.
I think cream cocktails are really popular on tiktok right now so could be why more people are orderig them.
I think this is my favorite series on How to Drink. Part of me wants to believe these are all someone's favorite drinks that they make for themself at home and have never thought these were weird until trying to order them. Since the drinks are made by eye they couldn't convey what they wanted properly ergo they ended up here.
bar drinks I've gotten were never as good as homemade. I just resort to a white russian as a safe choice.
@@canikostar99I mean, you can always specify exactly how it should be made. That's what bartenders are for.
@@johnr797 True. I just struggle with explaining an idea
@@canikostar99 that's fair enough. May sound cheesy but maybe next time if you want to try something different just practice saying it before going? Just a thought
"Champagne cocktails but with Miller Lite" is actually really funny and I would watch a bunch of those. I probably wouldn't drink them, gonna be honest here, but I do find it funny.
The Malibu and milk is not dissimilar to a Caribbean drink that is ice, coconut milk, nutmeg, evaporated milk and blended, is the virgin version, the adult version has a lot of rum. It’s served long as a sort of slushy. I also saw a variation that had single cream in it. The base was called coconut crush.
Every time someone subs out vermouth in a Negroni, it has always ended disastrously.
Negroni sub vermouth for water and just cry.
Amaro Montenegro begs to differ
Gonna sub port ;)
I dunno why Greg was expecting the base M&M to be terrible, coconut and dairy is a fine combo, no?
I was literally thinking of coconut milk…
He hates Malibu (as I gather, from all previous recorded encounters).
Generally throwing alcohol into milk leads to curdle town
It'd work if the Malibu was real coconut, but it's artificially flavored sweetened awfulness. You steep some shredded coconut in vodka, now...
I don't know, he often improvises something great in a few minutes given a prompt but for some reasons he can't get around "coconut milk" concept (see also pina colada from the previous customer is always wrong). I was like "yeah, makes sense. Malibu isn't the best choice but it's likely the only available/known one. Lightly boozy coconut milk"
I *Love* when these episodes result in like genuine 10/10 drinks, it's such a "diamond in the rough" feeling
It’s refreshing to see you creatively improving on these curveball drinks instead of the usual 30 minutes of watching Greg being tortured by drinks no human should have dared to create.
The Malibu rum and milk could have been turned into a dessert ice. Start with 2 oz of your Malibu rum in a blender, add 2 oz of your favorite almond liqueur and 2 oz of your favorite chocolate liqueur. Fill with milk and blend with ice. Swirl the inside of a tall glass with a chocolate swirl and pour in almond joy cocktail 🍹
He should retry the pineapple rum old fashioned with Plantation pineapple rum. It's a two barrel aged rum that is then mixed with good pineapples and strained. Very good sweeter rum.
I still want to see him make it with the pineapple Malibu it called for. I'm curious if it's better or worse.
@@nickmessner700 I've actually tried both! The actual malibu isn't really eldritch in the same way, it just kinda isn't good. Kinda just tastes like old, slightly off pineapple, whereas the parrot bay does genuinely turn into a horrible rotting hay taste. Also smells like diapers, genuinely, like baby-changin station chemical smell. I see why he found it so horrid.
I feel like with a lot of the flavors you ended up with you could do a whole episode of making candy bar cocktails. End up with all the candy from Halloween, what do you do? Make a cocktail for or that tastes like the candy!
I've had Malibu and milk before (though waaay more milk to Malibu ratio) and it was a delicious Summer drink, basically an alcoholic milkshake. Could maybe be improved by going fully into the milkshake vibe and adding a scoop of ice cream before blending but only if you're feeling fancy.
I love when they turn out to be good enough for Greg to experiment with, you just see a passion and curiosity appear that seems very genuine
I've had a beer by "Creature Comforts" in Georgia that is a wheat beer with lactobacillus in it, giving it a yogurt-like tartness. And just like they said, it legitimately tastes like champagne! Not in a million years would I guess wheat beer + yogurt cultures = champagne, but it does!
Greg, I just wanted to say I missed you.
I sort of fell out of the habit of watching youtube videos last year because my mental health wasn't where I needed it to be. Things in my life just kind of compounded to where I needed a break from pretty much everything that wasn't vital to survival. I didnt have the capacity to really focus and be present.
I've been feeling better and wanting to get back into my old life, and missing your videos especially. This one really just felt like coming home. It's hard to describe, I guess. But thank you.
That Malibu and milk made me think of going full almond joy and making a Grasshopper with creme de cocoa and malibu
That sounds pretty gpod actually
Malibu and milk was a thing in the 80s. Never tried it, but have definitely noticed the hint of suncream aroma as someone else has walked past with one.
I have never, in my life Had such an Instinctual Fight or flight response when i heard BAILEY'S AND SODA.
At least it's not bailey's and tonic...
I think the M&M&P should be called a 'Malibu Parabola'. Possibly just because I like the mathematics reference for a booze-y drink, but also because it totally has that Cocktail name feel, where you say those words and someone immediately is intrigued, and knows it must be some sort of strange mixed drink.
Also hard to say when drunk, which is helpful.
I don't think he should try to improve every one of these but it's great when he finds one that is kind of ok and tries to actually make something with it
For most of my younger life I thought Malibu was white (creamy) because my mother always had it with milk (and the bottle is white).
So, yeah, when that Malibu one was read out I was thrown that it wasn't a known combination. (also, Coconut and Milk/Cream is a common combo)
This is my favorite episode type, bringing something decent out of chaotic nonsense.
The Bailey's + club soda drink didn't sound awful to me when you first mentioned it. Made me think of a French soda (club soda + flavor syrup + half-and-half)
The best part of this channel is always when Greg starts freestyling new drink creations. It's impressive every single time
Always loved seeing the spray from squeezing the lemon
Bailey's website and some flavored bottles tell you to drink it with half soda water. It's too sweet to sip otherwise
im not really a big drinker but i LOVE your artistic, creative soul that gets inspired by these "starting points" and then iterating upon them. watching the ideas flow out of you is a joy to watch. i can also appreciate your dedication to the craft and making the drinks look beautiful
12:12 - Absolutely loved your little ditty, "Malibu & Milk". A timeless classic for the ages, just like the drink!
I absolutely adore this series. Love your stuff, but these are my favorites.
Bailey's and soda is my grandma's favorite sipper! :) Her other favorite is Scrumpy and black currant though so I think she might just be mad...
This a damn entertaining format, and I gotta say I’m happy to see how well it’s doing.
My first thought for the malibu and milk was that it would taste how tropical sunscreens smell, so when Greg described his redone drink version like tanning butter I was laughing so hard
So at a bar I used to work at, the management decided we'd do a summer special on pina coladas.
The spec they gave us was 50ml malibu, 50ml semi-skimmed milk and 50ml pineapple juice, shaken and strained over ice.
Greg, you really got me thinking about what I could do with cocktails here! Love these crazy episodes, cause I'm laughing my ass off at your reaction to the bad drinks, but this is the first one where the possibilities got me excited! Please do more of these!!
Love your content, brother!
I mixed irish cream and coke once. It curdled but it was tasty
The Skull of Suffering is always fun, and not just because it's fun to see Greg's reactions to terrible drinks. It's interesting to see which drinks end up not being terrible, and which drinks that sound like they should be ok end up being especially awful.
I love the joy you have when you expect meh or bad and suddently have a nugget of a good drink
The Bailey’s and soda reminded me of something that Greg got close to with his attempt to “make it better”. The bartender who created it called it “Swamp Water”. It’s 50/50 Bailey’s and Kahlua finished with a splash of Diet Coke. It was sweet and curdled the fizz like a root beer float.
My first thought on the Malibu & Milk was "a riff on a White Russian." On the last drink, I would have cut back on the Campari, skip the Amaro and use Allspice Dram instead.
The peanut flavor made me think of adding Chambord and hopefully getting a peanut butter and jelly flavor.
I refuse to believe that the wonky AI abominations that we occasionally run across are any worse than what humans will come up with themselves, and this series is my exhibit A
That may very well be because, at least with this stage of AI, it's based off of what humans have come up with. The AI we currently have can only extrapolate upon the creations of people.
as soon as you said peanuts and bitter i was like 'oh that needs creme de cacao' and then i started thinking of ways to improve it from there and settled on 'something fruity', and you basically made the drinkable cadbury's milk chocolate fruit & nut bar that i was imagining. kick ass.
There’s a bar in Alexandria, VA Old Hat that has a High Life cocktail called Spaghett (Tim and Eric reference). It’s a High Life with 1.5 oz removed with an added oz of Aperol and .5 oz lime juice. It’s fantastic!
I had the Campari tasting like peanuts thing having an Old Pal with Dickel rye and Dolin vermouth. It was surreal but worked.
I can tell by your reaction to the Bailey’s and Seltzer that you never had an Egg Scream at Pete’s Candy Store. The basic recipe is that of an Egg Cream with Kahlua subbed for the Fox’s U-Bet.
I would love to see a compilation of the best of these original evolutions. The M&M&P sounds like something I'll absolutely need to try making one day
Had fun watching you edit this on twitch and now watching the finished product
I’d love to see an episode based on the completion of the sentence “I knew a guy in college who used to drink ________.” For me, I knew a guy who liked rum and cream soda, which is absurdly sweet.
ALRIGHT lets see what fresh hell you put us through now then!
Edit: WELL it probably wasn't as painfull for me as it was for you but it was still pretty painful to watch! keep up the good work you glorious bastard, treading paths most men fear to tread.
He's putting himself through this, you are just here to observe
Waiting for the edited comment with a WTF reaction
I just watched the latest episode 4 hours ago what a treat! Stay strong Greg!
Love this series!
0:11 : Greg has the same approach to unpleasant things like I do: Just get on with it, don't drag it out, just rip it off like a band-aid. Hence he couldn't even wait for the intro music to finish playing first ;D ;D. I can respect that!
Somehow I knew the Malibu and milk was gonna be 1/2 decent before you even made it.
Coconut, sweet and dairy are friendly to each other
Greg is so fun to watch bc he's like a mad scientist with booze! Somehow he always knows just what to throw in to make it work
I quit drinking a while back but I love this channel and watch every video specifically for Greg's personality. Dude is hilarious and surprisingly erudite. Also I like that Meredith is becoming more of a character
Your Baileys Negroni reaction led right into the Applebee's dollarita commercial with the Crazy Train "ALL ABOARD HA HA HA!!!" ... it fit perfectly
you should make a drink book based on all the found drink you make.
Love those videos and the ideas you get from the weird orders but I cannot not think of these as like:
"hm this person ordered "butter on white bread" oh wow they're onto something what if we add a slice of ham, a slice of cheese and a dash of hot sauce DAMN this is a great sandwich"
Nice episode, well balanced.
In my opinion you can add milk or cream to any alcohol that is mostly bitter herbs, adjust the sweetness and end up with a fine drink.
Greg, these new outros are so sweet. I love you too, kind sir.
Interesting way to open.
And Beroni was deported to Finland.
“Claims He’s Not From There”
I am waiting for you to make an episode called the best of the worst. Make the drinks you thought would be horrible that are great and maybe make them better.
some of my favorite parts of this show is just grey trying out new things and being creative it's experimental and fun discovery and design
Thank you for the Johnny Dangerously reference. Always helps.
Drink's that are; The Creation of there, and (now) Greg's demise.
At least, there's no "Mass Sprite Addition's" this time 👍 :D .
I wish I drank so I could actually go to bars and order this stuff. I mean, I would sound like a crazy person trying to say "no, no it's heavy cream angastora and KAMPARI. No, see--"
The Tempus Fugit Creme de Cacao has a very strong "cherry cordial" candy vibe to me. It has a noticeable cherry note, with some vanilla, it's so good.
Probably my fave part of your channel is watching you workshop drinks. Wizardry!
I hope you didn't suffer quite as much as the last video. That being said, these are always wild.
Greg is a master mixologist - the way he workshopped new drinks from weird suggestions was very watchable
I love the egg creams from Perlys in Richmond. Great Jewish deli with a line out the door from when they open until when they close. The everything chips are worth the trip alone.
Never did Bailey's soda, but Bailey's is a favorite addition for my warming drinks that would have milk anyway. Coffee or a spiced tea, usually. I understand the desire to expand what you can do with the bottle of Bailey's in the cabinet.
Just watched that live segment you did for the FFVII stream with Alanah and you did a fantastic job man.
Yes! I live for this series!
I love the episodes where you workshop a new drink based off a random idea. Thanks!
I have the same viski coup at home, it's also my favorite pair. I didn't notice the brand when I bought them, I just liked them.
Malibu and milk was ordered quite often in a bar I used to work in in Ireland. So when Greg was talking about it I just got work flash backs haha
A French 75 with high life is wild. There was an old dive spot in Portland that served "beer-mosas" with brunch. Which was either high life or miller lite with OJ. That sounds intriguing, kind of
the first two drinks had me a little worried that we won't get to see greg suffer this episode; so nice of count baroni to disabuse me of that notion.
Especially if you can get candy canes without the mint flavour, I'll bet they'd look great as a garnish for the campari cordial, make the milky white colour of it look intentional. Perfect for a December get together.
JOHNNY DANGEROUSLY!!!! I knew I liked your channel for more than just excellent mixology and schandenfreude episodes like this!
The title and thumbnail made it look like you were going to try weird gimmick drinks, not a 'customer is wrong' episode (which I love)
About that Campari/half and half drink, in Tuscany during the winter, we have a variation of the American punch called Ponce Mandarino, and it's a 40% alcohol, bright orange/red liquor that we heat with the espresso machine's steam wand with some hot water.
However, a few people also like to drink it with milk instead. They heat up the Ponce and add steamed milk to it. So I knew that was gonna work-ish lol.
As much as I love watching bad drinks get ripped to shreds, I love it even more when you find something workable and manage to improve it. Or even if you can't improve it, like the Bailey's and soda, just to know someone was on to something is great.
