Hi, Steve yet again some great content. Invented this after watching this video. ODIN Juice! Add all ingredients into a Boston shaker. Add plenty of ice and shake vigorously for 20 seconds. Pour directly into a chilled collins glass. 45 ml Makers Mark Bourbon whiskey 10ml Honey Syrup 3:1 5 ml Vanilla Syrup 120 ml Semi-Skimmed milk .
Very glad to see this channel steadily climbs up in production quality in comparison with early videos. And of course, I like that Steve is giving the impression of a honest, calm and humble person. Qualities of a professional.
@@bighands69 yeah but originally it was invented to wake people up after long flights. The original commercial intercontinental flights landed in ireland and the planes had very bad insulation. So everyone was very cold n tired. We didn't drink coffee (tea is traditional) but the American passengers did. So we got coffee in for them and mixed in some whiskey to make them feel like the were in Ireland.
me and my friend tried once a recipe i figured out myself. so we took a big beer glass and we added 22.5 famous grouse and maple syrup and some appel juice and mixed it and after that we added milk and egg white and some cinnamon on top of it. it was one of the best things i ever tested out
Tried the whisky sour. Loved it. Been trying different recipes and this one is best. Some how though when steve makes it it fills the glass but when i do it it only half fills it
One of my fave videos that you’ve done so far! I’m gonna have this video favourited and linked until I remember them all off by heart. I’d love to see you do like a Round the World kinda cocktail series where you pick either a continent or let’s say top 5 British recipe cocktails such as 1. Pimms cup 2. Bramble, 3. Juniper sling 4. Dubonnet 5. White lady. Just for example. Some you have possibly done before though I’m not sure.
I haven’t really had other whisky cocktails... I usually drink my whisky neat however, I just made an old fashioned and loved it. I’m planing on trying all of these in the near future. Thank you for the thorough instructions.
Instead of muddling a sugar cube for my old fashioned, I mix about a tbsp or so of maple syrup with about 10 droplets of bitters (I use a maple cinnamon) in a “double old fashioned glass” and stir. I then fill the cup with ice and pour bulleit rye to my hearts content. Then I add a maranshino cherry (with a little bit of the syrup) and garnish with orange slice (if I have it). Stir it up. Sip. Delicious. I’m by no means a professional but I’ve experimented over the years and this is what I’ve come up with
Now I'm going to argue that your recipe for the Whiskey Sour is actually a Whiskey Fizz, plus I use lime juice instead of lemon juice. I only use lemon juice with Collins style drinks. However though I understand that everyone has different styles and every bar is different, but the fizz and sour are the ones that I feel like people confuse a lot.
Thanks for the video. My favorite is the Whisky Sour and Old Fashioned. Another favorite is a variable of Bee Knees with whisky. The bartender calls American Bee Knees.
I like the whiskey sour most of the time. I usually have 3 or 4 with my movies on the weekends. I do like to switch it up though. Sometimes I will have an old fashioned, or I'll just have it neat. For me, there are whiskeys that I really enjoy having it neat. I've never tried a manhattan before, I'm going to have try that. I switch up my old fashions to the more modern versions, instead of sugar cubes, switch it out for Pecan Wood Smoked Maple Syrup. I didn't think it would be good at the time, but my buddy talked me into it tasting it, so I tried it and I have to say, I really like it. The smoke just adds a bang to the cocktail.
Steve Thanks for putting out all these cocktail videos. but for your whisky sour recipe: 22.5ml simple syrup + 22.5ml lemon juice results in a disaster. that way it becomes a whisky sweet. or are you making your simple syrup with 2:1 (water:sugar)? cheers.
Good day Steve, I'll bet you work for a very high class place. You're presentation is very professional. Your demos present as customer service dialed up to 11.
I know we've talked about the whiskey sour before, but really in most bars the egg white isn't apart of the cocktail anymore unless your down to New Orleans where the fizz and he sour are staples there. BTW tried you shake and I can't pull it off because I don't have the same smile as you! Cheers Brother!
Have you ever tried Athol Brose Steve? My scottish grandfather got me onto it. Its a 700 year old recipe with an interesting history to it. What can I say but -WOW! Absolutely beats the living snot out of Bailey Irish Cream or any other of that style. I use 6 egg whites to make it. There are different variations but the egg whites add a superb creamyness to it. You soak Scotch whiskey in oats. While thats happening beat the egg whites until thick and slowly blend honey into it (I use leatherwood) then blend in cream. Use heavy because it will seperate in a nasty way otherwise). I filter the oats out of the whiskey and slowly blend that into the mix. Pour it all into bottles and because it will seperate give it a shake every time you walk past for 7 days. On the eighth day you will have the most excellent drink. GUARANTEED. Let me know how you get on.
Old fashioned with a sugar cube? yes please! thats my prefered way to do it! i use 3-4 dashes bitter, and a rye burbon. a lemon twist is better for a rye in my opinion. Classic drink, one of the best
The joy of Manhattans is recipe stays the same, but you vary the whiskey. I seek out small batch rye whiskeys and make my Manhattans so always get to try a new "flavor".
I really like this video. very informative and clear with the recipes. Could you please do one video explaining about differences between the varieties of whisky. I went to shop and have no idea which one to get. there are so many types out there. Thanks Steve.
That members mark is pretty tasty, if like it more sweet crown royal or Jack. if like more warm Irish wiskey like Jamieson, Johny Walker. If your not fancy and your going to mix it seagram's 7 is good for that.
I had to wait until the end before I drank them as I needed photos after filming 😆 I did get pretty boozy in my older vids as I’d film 7-8 and drink them as I went!
The whiskey sour (gotta have the egg white) is my absolute favorite cocktail. There’s a distillery where I live called High West and they make a silver whiskey. I’m curious what cocktails you can make with that.
1:36 wow this basically just shows there's no "bad" way of making anything, many recipes call for a perfectly even mix - but if you don't feel like it you can say it's a feature that it's unevenly mixed
I always say the "perfect cocktail" depends 100% on who's drinking it. If you get a feel for your guest's palate, you can adjust ingredients up or down to put a smile on their face. That's the most important thing.
I work in the bar where the Irish coffee was first invented and love to see it making it onto this list. Even if we do use a different whiskey now then the one in the video. :)
@@StevetheBartender_ the original whiskey used was Power's Irish whiskey....and was used to greet transatlantic passengers on the flying boats landing in Foynes County Limerick in the 1940s...i think the bar is now called the Yankee Clipper, it was invented by a chef called Sheridan, can't remember his first name thought
Can someone one help me out. What is the major difference between shaking and stirring the cocktails. Like why did he stir the Manhatten and not shake it
Stirring is inefficient shaking (in regards to chilling and diluting). As a general rule, stir spirit-forward drinks and shake drinks with juices, etc. Here's a good read: www.thespruceeats.com/shaken-or-stirred-760306
Thanks for another great video 🙏. Question: for someone drinking the Irish coffee, is it recommended to stir in the cream before drinking? I’ve never heard of this cocktail before so I am little curious.
