Making the King of Tiki Drinks: The Mai Tai 

I think modern rogue is actually better than scam school now.

Jason, if you haven't been, make sure to hit up "Smuggler's Cove" in San Francisco. AWESOME tiki bar with awesome drinks.

There are no cocktail channels that make tutorials so smooth and entertaining to watch as you guys. Thank you. And please make more and more often

I'm only 16, and I don't drink, but for some reason I find every one of your videos interesting. I guess it's just how you present everything and how everyone acts. Keep doing what you're doing Brian, I've been watching for YEARS. :D

Don't stop making drinks with Trever please Brian, and also Jason of course.

Loving this! You guys are really what made me realize RU-vid is the new household platform for enjoying serialized shows.

I think Brian should negotiate the entry code out of Trevor and then use it as a double puzzle answer on a remix video. One week only to maintain the exclusivity.

I love these drink recipe episodes. By the time I turn 21, I'll have an encyclopedia of epic drinks. And they will be done right thanks to you guys. Absolutely brilliant.

i love the feel of modern rogue. It has a sophisticated secret society vibe about it which makes me love watching. My first and favorite was the homemade gas masks. keep up the great work

This is honestly my favorite RU-vid channel ever!!!!

I love how right at the beginning Brian and Jason have a mini conversation about the drink, with Trevor, the bar tender, who probably knows much more about it than they do, just standing there quietly.

the joke at the end killed me

I always love how much these guys have on modern rogue. It just feels welcoming and nice. Never stop being yourselves guys cause your awesome.

This drink looks delicious, Brain! It looks like it really refreshes the brain!

It was today on this video that I figured out that Brian was the same spiky haired Brian that taught me how to throw cards and rip off people at bars and I’ve been a fan of modern rouge for a long ass time now

Tipsy Bartender eat your heart out! Awesome break down on rum dudes

have you ever done a video on how to setup a proper home bar? Cincinnati has several great ybars you can go and drink, but sometimes you just want to have fun at home. I love a tropical drink but it is hard to find a place that will put the time in to make it right. Thanks for showing us how to do it right.

Am going to have to favorite all these drink videos and master this craft.

I am truly excited about this channel and I shall only do one meaning full comment because that's what makes meaning full I have watched since the begging and will contuing to watch to the whole scam school team thank you for the amazing videos you have been releasing keep up the great work

This guy makes amazing drinks. You need to help him to start a RU-vid channel.

Man that looks good. You guys get to try some of the most perfect drinks.

He knows his stuff!

I love these drink videos

So guys, what is the code to get into the bar? You do this every Friday round here

As a rum lover, 3 rums in 1 drink is now my standar.

Bwhahaha 5:20 Darren Kitchen eat your heart out! Brilliant!

A Proper Long Island Iced Tea vid would be great because I've had so many bad ones and would rather make my own

A slightly weird mai tai recipe, not as good as mine of course, but still looks good. I really hope that this is the start of an entire series on bar/cocktail drinks on Modern Rogue, because they are amazing! I hope you took that straw poll to heart and breakoff Modern Rogue into a new channel. Love the content even better than Scam School (Yes, I said it!).

We need a tiny Brian cup! Make that an item on scamstuff.com

Dude I need to know where that bar is, sounds amazing there

Love the Daren Kitchen reference...

Mai Tai (1944), Victor "Trader Vic" Bergeron - 3/4 to 1 oz lime juice - 1/4 oz orgeat - 1/4 oz simple syrup (rich or demerara works nicely; or just 1/2 oz orgeat if you really love the stuff) - 1/2 oz curacao - 2 oz aged Jamaican rum (alternate recipe: 1 oz aged Jamaican, 1 oz aged agricole; also, Denizen 8 is an exceptional rum that was crafted specially for this recipe) Combine in shaker with plenty of crushed ice. Shake and pour into double old-fashioned glass. Garnish with a spent lime shell and a mint sprig. Further reading: "You Deserve a Mai Tai - A Real One, That Is" www.eater.com/drinks/2016/11/10/13544698/mai-tai-recipe-history Cheers!

what a coincidence that cup having your old hair style

good to see Gosling's Black Seal Rum on the bar there, go Bermuda! Brian try the Dark -n- Stormy made with Gosling's rum

That last step in the description is key

You get hats off for using crushed ice. A big hats off. You get a thumb down for not using Jamaican rum, which is fermented differently, and a staple for Mai Tai. You also get a thumb down for the floater, there is no floater in the REAL Mai Tai. Overall, yours is still way much more closer to the original as many of the fake Mai Tai videos on RU-vid. (I hope you are making your own Orgeat instead of using the corn syrup based artificially flavored ones you find in most bars.)

Brian, you should ask Trevor if he's ever met someone ballsy enough to ask him to serve in a Sounten bar scam from the Name of the Wind. ;)

Awesome video, I like these a lot.:D Also, horror themed? Dang it, I wish I lived in the US and had the code because horror is the best genre EVER.:D

Hey, Scam School (and viewers)! My name is Ryan Little. I made the Summertime Boom Bap beat that you hear in this video. I'm super honored that it was used. Be sure to subscribe to my music channel here on RU-vid for more music and new releases!

I subbed to the channel and I love scamschool and been thinking about buying some stuff from your site Keep it up

You should try a little guava juice and pineapple mixed with the line and sugar mix

i love these keep up the great work

you should sell those Brushwood cups, it looks cool, I'd buy it.

I'm visiting austin for ACL and want to find this damn bar. People have told me the drinks in austin are better than the bay area and I won't believe it until I taste it myself. How does one start the process of figuring out where this is and how to get in?

Darren kitchen? as in the hak5 dude? will you guys be discussing the wifi pineapple in future episodes?

Not all of us are compilers. Natural language is our preferred means of communication, albeit less precise and more ambiguous than formal languages like programming languages. Comments provide meta information about the program, reasons for choosing this implementation, known issues, hints for future readers (including yourself). Commenting interfaces is an especially good thing to do. Implementations don't need to be commented heavily if their interfaces are sufficiently documented. That is, a well-written implementation for a given method is rarely more than 20 language statements (typically around 5 to 10). Thus, if you know what the method is supposed to it, it should be straightforward to understand the mechanics of it. Meaningful in this context has two parts: First: the comment can be understood by the people who read it. Two: the comment says something that is likely to be not understood by the same readers unless it was present. So: who are your readers?

gues what 3 exsacly years ago i saw scam scool for the first time ..3 years leter i'm still watching it 🙂

1:06 magnetic letters: "am I sayin meow we support butt stuff"

"'Am I Sayin Meow We Support Butt Stuff"" Lol wtf the letters on the fridge XD

YES I finally got the whole sentence on the wall it's: Am I say in meow we support butt stuff. I wonder who is in charge of those letters.

You 3 are special

Nice video.. all in one

When will Spiky Brushwood come back?

When you buy things from scam stuff how long is the shipping to the UK?

The legend say's that when you're early Brian will insult you

So is the mini-brushwood going to be available on Scamstuff.com?

love these drink making vids

It looks like him so it must be his!

Is the code to the bar "There is no code" or "You'll never guess the code"? I feel at this point that it is.

5:10 Who drinks from a pineapple under the sea? Ja-son-Mur-phy!!

That guy is amezing!

this is mai taip of drink

why do i watch these im 13 and will never rember these thing for 8 years lol i dont understand myself

When are we going to get Hacking the System season 2........

The haircut XD XD

last time I was this early I shit myself

Considering it's a Mai Tai, this was a lot more true to history than I expected, but the traditional tiki recipes are complex and carefully engineered so I have to play the tiki stickler here. Please shake with crushed ice and do not strain. Please don't use a float. Please include a spent lime shell. The original rum was a J. Wray & Nephew rum, so please use at least one Jamaican rum (Myers does not count because there shouldn't be a float)! And points for mentioning Lemon Hart 151 (which is basically unobtainable) but please don't mention Bacardi 151 as an acceptable overproof rum! I wouldn't have made a big deal if Victor Bergeron hadn't been invoked. If we want to talk about accurate history of this illustrious drink it's good to try to approach the inimitable original 1944 recipe.

Murphy says; nothing exotic about orgeat, it's on all the shelves. Probably in most civilized places, and even in a lot of boomtowns, but out here on what remains of the frontier you'd most likely either need to make your own or drive a couple hundred miles to buy it.

holy crap that bartender is hot

would cointreau also work in lieu of the triple sec?

What's the code to get in?

The beeeeaardd!

nice vid

I like apples!

that crack on the hair tho

why do so many people want to be insulted by the almighty Brian? 😂

Lol spanked mint

I was all adult like until the spanked mint.... hehehe

look at the fridge XD

Oh mighty scam school gods, I call upon thee to insult me

This is exactly the kind of "chick drink" I was talking about. Thanks guys!

since your not using your old spiky hairstyle, you don't mind if I take it do you?

Read the letters on the wall ;)

I miss brian's spikes

is jason a legit genius or just researches before you shoot hahaha

Brian plz call me a jackass

ha! wifi pineapple shoutout

Dark rum float? Controversial for a mai tai... The original recipe used just one type of rum (17 year aged Wray & Nephew), lime, orgeat, curacao and rock candy syrup (what these guys would call 'heavy' syrup). Sadly 17 year old W&N is not around anymore but any good aged rum will work.

lol lime juice is not zest. which means that it doesnt make a drink zesty.

Lol in the first 500

The fridge magnets confuse me

so..... thats an illegal bar? or what?

CURACAO AINT MADE FROM ORANGES! Its made from Laraha in the Curacao island!

brian please insult me.

Don't let someone that does so little for you control so much of you

Where to begin. If you were obsessed with tiki, you wouldn't mock the Trader part of Trader Vic. He earned that name fair and square, by trading for decor, for drinks, for work, et cetera. Secondly, never drink a mai tai from a straw. Drinking things from a straw completely changes the flavor. People don't realize that in general. Your acids probably became a little more prominent when you did that, which is a good thing because......too much orgeat, and too much curacao. This drink was probably VERY sweet. Or, at least, it would have been, if the bartender didn't ruin it by pouring Myers "rum" on top, which, is a hallmark of a Hawaiian Mai Tai (Also created by Trader Vic), not a proper mai tai. And Myers is hardly a rum. It contains both vermouth, and a quinine. It's heavy doctored and tastes like the bottom of a tire after it has sat parked for a day on hot blacktop. Oh, and the mint is a VERY important part of a mai tai. let's ignore the shitty wine glass for a second, and that it was poured into the pineapple. (The pineapple, however, is awesome for drinking poolside when they don't allow glass.) A mai tai should be served with an upside down lime shell, and a LARGE sprig of mint, no stem. Here's why: a lot of taste comes from smell. Smell can completely change the flavor of something. Google that shit. In this case, you should be getting a nose full of mint every time you take a sip. When you sip on a perfectly balanced mai tai, and get a nose full of mint, then, and only then, will you understand what a beautiful drink it is.

Anyone else feel like Brian has "sold-out" because he's so popular? No? Just me? Oky... #RIPOldScamSchool

dead wood (ไม้ตาย)

Tiki drinks with alcohol is not a logical choice for freshen..

Again, too much coffee guys!
