Shout out for having real captions on your videos. My girlfriend is hard of hearing and we have to put up with auto-generated BS way too often. You're the man Shaq!
I was about to comment about the captions too. I basically learnt English with captioned shows and movies. I now understand English quite well but always appreciate captions
I've been a bartender for 12 years, and I think the most important thing you said in the whole video was about gatekeeping. These recipes look awesome, and accessible. You probably know this, but if you want more extraction on the ginger for the syrup you can dice it. You can also juice the ginger by blending and running through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth and then whisk that into the honey syrup. Thanks for making cocktails a bit more accessible.
My preferred method to add ginger to a cocktail is just to grate a little in the shaker. It uses way less ginger and gets a much sharper flavor then the stuff that’s boiled. However, it only works with strained cocktails since you would gets chunks of ginger otherwise.
@@kevinmiller1356 that’s brilliant! I rarely make drinks at home, so working at that fine of a scale is sort of outside my wheelhouse. I’m gonna try this.
+1 to the suggestion about blending the ginger. I've tried the infusion method like what's in this video and it didn't yield nearly as much ginger punch as I would have liked.
@@guysevedz3581 lol wtf. I hope not. He’s said before that his channel is just a hobby and he has a proper Full-Time job he enjoys. He said that like a year ago, so I could be wrong.
My buddy had a house warming party and we're both homebrewers who made a few batches for the occasion. Invited people who tend to enjoy their craft beer, cocktails (we have all the stops) and fine wines. However, the punch bowl we made was cleaned out before anything else. I too think punch is highly underrated.
Me and my friends spent a whole night making some of your cocktails and they were Something Else. The depth of flavor in the Mr. Bali Hai, the incredible transformation of the curdled milk punch, and the simplicity of the Purple Rain lemonade! Really enjoyed these and would love to see more of your cocktail recipes if you have them
One time I left a comment saying I want to make videos like your style of educational food content and you replied so encouragingly almost telling me to just copy you and I respect you so much and you entirely have taken your career to where I want to go. I just got my first big job so I can save up and get the right equipment in due time. I literally never comment, you just make excellent content
The Mr Bali Hai is one of my favorite tiki drinks and the penicillin is probably my single favorite drink period. Shaq demonstrating patrician taste as always.
A local coffee shop I like makes a spritzy americano with espresso, tonic water, OJ, pineapple, and coconut syrup (plus a roasted pineapple bit on top... delicious). Coffee and pineapple together takes a second to accept but I ended up buying them all summer. Will definitely try out Mr Bali Hai when I get the chance.
I would amend what he said and say that every person should know a cocktail RATIO, rather than a specific cocktail. Example 2oz strong, 3/4 sweet, 3/4 sour, plus one egg white, will get you a generic sour. Stuff like this will make you more versatile and less afraid of a cocktail. Also it's important to know about how oxidation and acid has an affect on cocktails and why they start to degrade in flavor over time. This is a reason why punches are not super popular for cocktail enthusiasts... unless we're talking milk punch.
A bar I used to work at had its own version of the butterfly tea drink, however, we used pineapple juice and lemonade for the base and topped with Empress Gin (blue coloured Gin made with the same flower) we called it the “Empress Purple Reign”. Loved your version as well :)
You're one of the few food/beverage youtubers who's videos genuinely get better and better every single upload. Your progress and growth as both a creator and chef (fight me haters) is inspiring. Tell Babish you're coming for him.
LOVE these! i don’t drink but i love to cook and would love to pair some fun cocktails when i do for people who do drink, these look fun enough that i would actually want to make them
The coffee and pineapple reminded me of when a local coffee shop started doing iced coffee lemonades, I was sceptical but it ended up being my go-to hot day order every day since
This is a quintessential Internet Shaq video: cuts straight to the chase, has a variety of new and fun things to try (I'm kinda jaded about life rn so I appreciate it), whets your curiosity about different non-food things (eg hyperpop), etc...
The easiest cocktail I make that really impressed people is a margarita. I just use tequila and sweet and sour made from fresh limes and about 1/4 fresh OJ. If I have it on hand I'll use orange liqueur, but the juice mix does most of the heavy lifting. You can swap the orange with grapefruit, tangerine, or other fresh juice or blended fresh pineapple, melon berries or other fruit for something more seasonal. If I'm not too busy I might also crank out some caipirinhas (I just use rum) or mojitos. They take time, but they don't require many fancy ingredients. If you don't want to keep a ton of obscure liquor on hand, a little fresh fruit can make for amazing cocktails. It doesn't even have to take any extra shopping, just visit the produce aisle when your shopping for party snacks.
Everyone out here giving tips… so here’s mine: feel free to grate ginger into the shaker to get a stronger ginge kick than infusing it into sugar or honey syrup. Can save you from the trouble of making too many extra ingredients your not going to use too often while still making a great tasting cocktail.
Hell yeah. I've been watching a lot of how to drink too, some of my favorites which are pretty approachable in flavor are the Pearl Diver and Paper Plane
On the subject of "authenticity" and "tradition" in cocktails, from a professional cocktail bartender: Aside from the historical influence on recipes, there are lots of methods that arose in the original way a cocktail was made that contribute in unexpected ways that you may not realise until you change them. Sometimes, those traditional methods are bad though. Traditions are rules, and rules are made to be broken. Fuck around and find out, you never know what interesting things you'll discover.
you really missed an opportunity to mention the butterfly peas botanical name: Clitoria ternatea and yes it is named like that because the flower resembles a vulva
Empress gin has butterfly pea tea in it that makes a beautiful blue color that turns purple when citrus is added to the drink. Love a tom Collins with empress gin and it looks beautiful!
Thank you for stating that it's all about understanding an items role in a recipe over being married to one ingredient. That's like the best advice for staying loose in the kitchen and letting creativity or in some cases necessity take you places you didn't think you could go.
A note about ice: most of it's chilling power comes from melting, and the melt-water mixing with the drink. If you can, chill all of the ingredients of that punch before serving. The giant chunk of ice will melt slower, but that also means it cools it down slower.
"Penicillin is an all time favorite of mine for its lifesaving properties but I would strongly recommend not trying to make it without access to a laboratory and specific knowledge." is where I thought this was going
Personally my favourite cocktail is an El Presidente: 3 parts Vermouth Blanc, 3 parts Rum (I use Rhum Agricole), a splash of grenadine and 1 part orange Curacao
Gotta say, my go-to cocktails these days are the New York sour and the beton. The sweetness of the bourbon, combined with the sourness of the lemon juice and the dry red wine is exquisite. The beton is just a two ounce pour of Becherovka and tonic, garnished with lemon wheels. It's extremely pleasant and super simple.
For the syrup, since it's already a high effort cocktail, I recommend sous vide infusion. Water, honey, ginger at 140 for an hour. It let's some honey flavor still come through despite the other strong flavors in the drink.
If syrup is "high effort" for anyone...(I would argue that making a cup of tea is more involved). As I would agree to the circulator, I would also move to a 2:1 simple, and adding a bit of vodka to it to make it (more) shelf stable. This way you can have your "high effort" simple syrup last you months.
@@ColAlbSmi After blending the water and honey, you would transfer the ginger and slurry to a bag... don't stick your circulator in the liquid... or... if you do, send me a vide of you doing it ;)
@@omgitsjulian I didn't mean the syrup specifically, more in that it's a nice cocktail with ingredients that are difficult to source for some, so you might as well spend a bit more effort (really barely more) for the syrup. Also, you'd have to add a good amount of vodka to make it shelf stable. I'd skip that and do, probably close to a 3:1 syrup so that it's shelf stable on its own from sugar content. That's a wild guess for the sugar content, though.
You should call “Unnamed Purple Lemonade” a “Thai Garden” because it’s very similar to a drink called nam dok anchan which is pretty much the same as the unnamed purple lemonade but without the addition of gin.
Was blown away by the pineapple coffee combo when a hotel served a hot spiced coffee like it in Mexico. No idea what its called but now I want to try the cocktail.
After working a 12 hr night shift, we go out for breakfast and my specialty, Mexican coffee. Cup of coffee, your way, with a shot of Beam and a shot of Kahlua. Got the recipe from Ma Crosby in Acuna, Mexico. Living in the Midwest and no one drinks coffee like that.
I think that amaro vid was pretty influential in getting me into mixing up drinks. Though I've never actually had any amaro, it's not sold around here.
I like the 4-3-2-1 for punch. 4 parts water / ice, 3 parts rum / liquor, 2 parts sweet / simple syrup, 1 part citrus / lime juice. You can pretty much do ANY 4-3-2-1 and make a great easy-to-drink beverage!
i think you could make a great punch based on Dior's Granville perfume - the combination between rosemary & thyme, pine needles and *big lemon* always made me wanna drink it
Hey Shaq I was wondering if you can make this same video but for Mocktails since I can't drink alcohol cause of my religion but have always been interested in making drinks like this
We used to make punch at every party because it was always cheap, fast, delicious, and got better over time as the fruits infuse. 10/10 advice, make punch.
My favorite simple cocktail is just a Paloma It's like a Rum and Coke but with Tequila and Grapefruit soda (I prefer Mexican Fresca, but if you can't find it, Squirt is fine). If you don't mind spending a little more, I think it tastes best with a good Resposado as the kinda smokey caramel flavors from that mix in so well. You can pretty it up with some lime juice, salting the rim, garnishing with a slice of Grapefruit, if you so want. Ultimately, so long as the two base things are there, it's always a good drink.
I'm a basic beeatch when it comes to liquor drinks when it comes to at home libations. The most exotic I get is buying whipped cream flavored vodka for a screw driver that tastes just like a dreamcicle (we ironically call it the powerdrill because it's a pretty girly drink). Imma have to give at least a couple of these a whirl, thanks Shaq!
My favorite mixed drink recipe for when I need to entertain guests: 1: get your favorite hard liquor 2: remember you don't have any friends 3: cry into glass 4: drink cheap flavored vodka mixed with your tears for a salty cocktail you won't ever forget no matter how long you're in therapy
For the punch, plan ahead and made a large ice cube out of the same juices in the recipe. As it melts it will still dilute the alcohol but it won't taste watery. Then you can just top off the alcohol.
We used to make this mix of Vodka, apple juice, and Coke for our noon to midnight drinking sessions in college. We called it Breakup Season and it was invented purely on accident - but it was an accident good enough for us to drink it over and over again.
I think i know what Shaq's video reminds me of, Infomercial! When i was a kid i really love to watch them not so more now since most of the product are BS, but Shaq's delivery really made me feels home

It's nice to stick to tradition and be authentic, but imo just do whatever makes it taste good.
