OK I'm confused--turn the subtitles on and this video becomes hilarious.

@mercurygirl17 5 лет назад

Thanks for the tip. I got a good and much-needed laugh out of it!

@kentwestmoreland419 4 года назад

thanks, that was funny

@SmallScreenNetwork 12 лет назад

Thanks! We think so too! One of the best!

@phatflaco 11 лет назад

I love this drink... it's a warming drink during our meal, and helps with digestion while enjoying a good meal with friends... thank you

DavePolo1, The measuring cup Robert is using is the OXO Mini Angled Measuring Cup. They also have them in stainless steel. Just search for it and you should be able to grab it on their site or from other retailers. Thanks for watching! Small Screen

This is my favorite video for Whisky Sour. Been making mine exactly like that since I watched this video years ago. Never took time to say thanks.

@SmallScreenNetwork 2 года назад

Glad you like it!

@p1zuzu 9 лет назад

Hess is a legend

Buddy - you have classsssss.

@Daowong 10 лет назад

Great ! You make a smooth flavorous drink. Nice and tasteful !!!

@joxnjoxn399 10 лет назад

I made a whiskey sour just in this fashion last night, while a fellow bartender watched. Then, after pouring the drink into the glass, I tasted it and approved, then I gave it to the other bartender to try. He said, "Not bad, but this drink has way more potential, especially the foam." He said that using the spring and dry shaking the egg white was a neat idea, although once you introduce ice next, then strain it at the end you end up breaking up the nice fluffy bubbles. I would recommend his method: in which you shake all the ingredients together right away with ice, then strain away the ice, shake the ingredients again in a clean tin, and then witness the uber frothiness than ensues. The drink will take about 2 minutes to completely settle, but it is completely drinkable right away. The texture is so smooth and the taste is so well-rounded. I believe you should consider this, Mr. Hess. But, your way is not bad in my view, it's an awesome way to keep the drink spirit forward. Cheers.

@joxnjoxn399 9 лет назад

That's what I mean by double strain, using the hawthorn and tea strainer

@terriehahn2694 5 лет назад

Could you tell me where to get a lemon squeezer like the one you have in this video. I can't find a manual squeezer that sits on the counter like this. Thank you.

@S1GM41992 9 лет назад

Where did you get that cool looking juicer?

@SmallScreenNetwork 11 лет назад

Fatt Hands, The drink will still foam somewhat but definitely not as much. The egg white also adds a smooth texture to the drink. The flavor should not be diminished that much. Think of it in the same way as a margarita would be. You are making a sour style cocktail which consists of spirit, simple syrup and citrus juice. Another drink in this category is the daiquiri. Thanks for watching! Small Screen

@SmallScreenNetwork 11 лет назад

behemoth6079, We believe what Robert is saying here is that using egg white and dry shaking are unique to cocktails like the whiskey sour and that not many cocktails use egg white or require a dry shake. For many people out there, especially those who are not bartenders, hearing that some cocktails contain egg white is a pretty unique and new concept. Those same people have certainly never heard of dry shaking. Robert is just trying to educate them. Thank you for watching! Small Screen

@kevin1873 2 года назад

With the proper sugar cube and muddling method, you should have no problem dissolving that sugar cube to where no grain or grit is left behind so do not be afraid to use sugar cubes in your drinks.

@SmallScreenNetwork 2 года назад

👍🏼

@tamarasteinman1646 7 лет назад

I want to find a citrus press like his, anyone know where to get it?

@SmallScreenNetwork 7 лет назад

The juicer Robert is using is an antique called Ebaloy. You can occasionally find them on Ebay.

@andrewkharel5280 8 лет назад

wish I could find a video Hearn cocktail pls.... hope dear Robert will does help soon.

@206downtown 2 года назад

Great cocktail and wonderful presentation. Only one question: Does anyone proofread/edit the closed caption? For those people reading and not listening, this must be very confusing.

@youscuzzyasses 11 лет назад

Well I did re-ask the question, but then I made the drink anyway. I used to drink straight whiskey, but holy cow this sour mix is great. I don't know what to do now!

@jenspoder8322 10 лет назад

That's a beautiful whisky sour. Great recipe. Will try it out soon.

@SmallScreenNetwork 10 лет назад

Hope you like it, Jens. Let us know your thoughts. Thank you for watching!

@jenspoder8322 10 лет назад

Small Screen Cocktails It's now my favorite drink :) This and a Gin sour with lime.

@donlove3741 3 года назад

No Sword with orange and cherries? Looks tasty , make mine with bushmills or JW red as well. 100 proof old G Dad or Fitzgerald.

@victorhernandez790 7 лет назад

wow this guy is amazing. not only I learn how to make cocktails but I get history lessons and learn other things... I can't stop watching his videos even though I'm not even trying to make the drink yet lol

@JonasClark 10 лет назад

It is, yes. But most bartenders today don't know that. And while bitters are, indeed, an important part of a cocktail - in fact, they're what made a drink fit into the "cocktail" category in the far past - some mixes are interesting when tried without them. Experimentation is what moves us forward; taking classic recipes and modifying them can be fun and enlightening.

@DavePolo1 11 лет назад

Where can one get the measuring instrument you use?

@TheUFOeffect2 10 лет назад

Makers Mark, great choice

@bobmackenzie5690 3 года назад

What is the sugar/water ratio in the simple syrup you use?

@PaulOC247 9 лет назад

I like how the juice you used catches the juice. Where did you find it?

@nellz72 7 лет назад

Check Ebay as it is an antique. It is called an Ebaloy.

@SmallScreenNetwork 11 лет назад

CafDean, The answer is yes and no. Egg whites do not have much flavor on their own. That being said, they do alter the texture and spread the flavors of the other ingredients around in a different way. Mostly, egg whites or things like cream tend to create a creamy or "full" texture and mouth fell. Kind of like the difference between drinking a cup of coffee black and a cup of coffee with cream. Hope that helps. Thank you for watching! Small Screen

@kentbayona9720 8 лет назад

Im glad u know about pisco sour, typical peruvian cocktail

@ericbeardo 8 лет назад

+jersey boy One of my favorite drinks! I keep pisco on hand just for these.

@SmallScreenNetwork 11 лет назад

You could leave the foam out but you would have to make the drink without egg white. Just shake with ice and serve! Thanks for watching! Small Screen

@CookinesiTube 8 лет назад

What is simple sirup? I use maple sirup - sooo good!

@MrBandholm 8 лет назад

+Cookinesi sugar and water in a ratio of either 1-1, 2-1 or 3-1... Usual it is 2-1 and for the most parts the recipi will tell what ratio it is

@hageman96 7 лет назад

hahahahaha omg.... gotta love the subtitle on this clip.

@CafDean 11 лет назад

Do egg whites alter the flavor at all?

@MrTurtletraxx 10 лет назад

Where can I find that particular juicer?

@SmallScreenNetwork 10 лет назад

Stefan, The juicer Robert is using is an antique Ebaloy juicer. You can look on Ebay. You might get lucky! Thank you for watching!

@SmallScreenNetwork 11 лет назад

Fatt Hands, Not sure exactly what you are asking. Can you rephrase the question? Thanks for watching! Small Screen

@smurphdog898 10 лет назад

What a Badass! Great video!

@SmallScreenNetwork 10 лет назад

Glad you liked it, CaptainLoveMacine! Thank you for watching!

@rssiya2601 7 лет назад

Everyone worried about egg whites don't ... tiramisu has raw egg whites as the filler and I never new for the longest time, and its one of my favorite desserts =) Buy those cage free brown eggs if your that worried, there better for you health wise anyways.

@pss5425 8 лет назад

where can i find your 2 piece shaker?

@RobbieMitchel 8 лет назад

It's called a Parisian Shaker. All ingredients should be added to the opposite half to which is used in this video though.

@lordbrunskog 5 лет назад

Isnt the measures a bit off? Shouldnt it be 1 Oz of lemon juice and a smaller amount on the simple syrup? Thats how I do it and isnt that more sour like?

@SmallScreenNetwork 11 лет назад

You could use either ratio depending on your tastes. Thanks for watching! Small Screen

@Cypeq 9 лет назад

Well surprise surprise there are more and less sour lemons how do you work with that when you must mesure so precisely ;-)

@mrnobody6354 11 лет назад

the addition of egg white is probably the best thing that happened to the sours.

@AdamIsTheBarcode 11 лет назад

No garnish?

@f00dify 8 лет назад

Have you guys ever considered rolling your citrous fruits before extracting the juice from them? You get more juice from them when you do that.

@facundocorradini 8 лет назад

+f00dify that would also get all the citrous oils on your hands instead of into the drink

@f00dify 8 лет назад

Facundo Corradini I'm not saying to do that with all the citrous just the one's your juicing.

@facundocorradini 8 лет назад

I do understand that, but when you juice any citrous with any bar juicer, you are pressing on the skin and therefore adding some oils to the juice. Rolling the fruit before will take them out before it gets in the juicer

@Z0DIACV2 8 лет назад

+f00dify Actually that doesn't make a difference. Jeffery Morgenthaler has an interesting section in his book on citrus juicing (pg 25) and actually found that rolling doesn't really affect the final volume positively and may in fact affect it negatively albeit very little.

@patrickmallon1466 9 лет назад

not even a quick glance at 1:30 lololol

@sammalone7352 5 лет назад

No maraschino cherry garnish?

@jeremiahwisdom9503 5 лет назад

The rich maraschino juice that accompanies the cherries would detract from the profile of the cocktail. Its best form to use an aromatic bitter for the classic whiskey sour.

@behemoth6079 11 лет назад

I like how he is calling the egg white and the dry shake "unique" and whatnot, when it's the PROPER way to make the sour. Hell, it's still missing bitters (Angostura, please).

@youscuzzyasses 11 лет назад

Will it ruin the drink without anything to add the foam shit?

@pesto12601 11 лет назад

I think he is asking if you can leave out the egg white foam... I know I do..

@h1n1worm 6 лет назад

looks like this one is very first for this guy. noooooooooby)

@douglaspierce8480 Год назад

I keep saying, stay away from using egg whites. My father said that in his day, the '30's to '60's he saw too many people sickened by egg whites. In my years as a barman, I never used egg white in a sour not only because of the illness potential but it was too much of pain in the ass to use in a busy bar. it's not about salmonella, it about allergy, I had a friend that couldn't even crack an egg because if the egg touched his skin, he would go into liver threating shock. If you're in the bar business, the risk of even one customer becoming ill or dying is just too big to consider for the sake of using egg whites.

@mrnobody6354 11 лет назад

I don't know where you learned to make the Sour, but you are wrong. A Whiskey Sour originally contained nothing more than whiskey, sugar and lemon juice, stuff like egg white and bitters were later added to make the drink more interesting, hence these are totally optional.

@toknnomad1424 2 года назад

Why does this guy remind me of Bob Ross the way he speaks...

@SmallScreenNetwork 2 года назад

He gets that a lot. 😆

@Streetsweeper299 11 лет назад

Alright here it is simply Whiskey Sour = No Egg Boston Sour = Whiskey Sour + Egg White

@jeremiahwisdom9503 5 лет назад

fact check your knowledge on the sour est. 1890

@redmotherfive 5 лет назад

Egg Nog deluxe

@SmallScreenNetwork 5 лет назад

Certainly is!

@SuzHar 10 лет назад

Haaa not true! I asked for a Whiskey Sour at a bar in Chicago and the bartender said "do you want that made with bourbon? " :P

@SuzHar 10 лет назад

Or is bourbon a whiskey? LOL Danged if I know, I just drink 'em.

@JXL_ST20 10 лет назад

Bourbon (which is made from a mash consisting of at least 51% corn) is a type of American Whiskey, the reason why the bartender might've asked you such a question is because there are many other varieties of whiskey such as Scotch, Irish, Canadian and Japanese as well as other varieties of American Whiskey such as rye whiskey.

@SuzHar 10 лет назад

Thanks for you answer!!

@langdonowen4066 Год назад

Get someone to edit the text as you speak ! it is way off and needs to be corrected. The actual video was good but the text was bad. I have hearing issues, so a quality text would have been quite helpful. I appreciate what you do!
