We really enjoyed it, but we miss Martin. Where has he gone?
You made the Harvey Wallbanger wrong if you can't taste the Galliano, which is a licorice flavored liquor and double shot of vodka.
All these drinks seem to be mixed very weak. That Long Island looks like it's coke.
Flamin' cocktail's might be fun if done outside🔥
I loved the video, but where was the Adios MF?? Now that was THE 2000s drink I remember both ordering and taking orders for left and right.
"Too boring to be offensive" is, as I recall, the tagline under the photo in my high school yearbook.
Yeah, your photo from our yearbook IS dull, dull, dull. 😂
You're lucky. I didn't even get a tagline under my picture. Just a picture of a bad haircut in a leather jacket.
you guys had a yearbook?
You too!
Paddy's "French Elvis" had me laughing so hard!!! 😂😂😂
That is a classic!
It's the extra effort to stand up and shake his hips 😂😂😂😂
Insulting both Elvis fans and Francophiles! 😂
I really don’t like that guy
@@paulmolloy7206you are the only one! He has such genuine reactions!
"We'll have 12 more." Long Island Ice Teas. The hell you will. You'd have to be Andre the Giant not to freakin die.
Well, maybe if you're in a group of 6 or more. 😉
@@michaelhoward142 fair enough.
Eh, Irish are like the Wisconsinites, they'll be fine.
ya don't order 12 of them.. you order two pitchers of them, for a bachelorette party.
If Andre the Giant wasn't already deceased.
The coke in a long island iced tea is only supposed to be a float, for the color change effect it has on the otherwise clear drink...giving it the color of tea. It should never be that dark or taste that much like coke.
It shouldn’t be an “otherwise clear” drink. It contains rum, tequila and sour mix. I be also seen versions with whiskey.
Of course it could use silver/white rum or tequila, but it’s not a clear drink.
@@drjoshuamc The fuck? It never has whiskey and it always has rum and tequila. Its the 5 standard clear spirits: vodka, rum, gin, tequila, and triple sec. Add sweet n sour, shake, pour, add a cola float for color and a lemon slice for garnish. That's it. Anything else is not a Long Island
@@drjoshuamc Clear, no, but the color before coke is fairly pale. The coke shouldn't be tasted. I like the Try channel, but Sean needs to go to bartending school. His mixes seem to be a bit inconsistent, and that LIIT looked like coke, not tea.
@@johngelnaw1243 the cocktails look like they came from the diviest of dive bars that are making the drink for the first time in their lives cause all they typically serve is bud heavy on draft.
Agreed. A splash of coke is what the recipe i looked up said years ago. This is like 3 glugs.
by the 1960s many tiki places were losing recipes, literally. that's how we got random juices added to rums like the "mai tai" here. another poster already mentioned this but the mai tai was a Trader Vic original of overproof white rum, orgeat, lime, curaçao, and simple syrup.
I was wondering about this because the colour of what they are drinking is so ... red ... i've never in my life had a mai tai that colour. My family goes to Hawaii every year, so i have had all manner of bastardized 'mai tai's ... most including some pineapple juice, but i don't remember ever having one that was red.
I litterly cried when they brought out the abomination they tried to call a mai tai
Also the Mai Tai caused a rum to go extinct! The original Mai Tai used an 18 year old Wray and Nephew rum which was never made again after production changes at the distillery.
I don't even drink, but I came here to see if someone else would point this out. Although it also makes me wonder, does Ireland really know much about the tiki culture? Perhaps a Try Tiki Cocktails episode? 🤔
@@shuboy05 They did a limited production of the original rum recently.
The long island ice tea was my drink in the '90s. Dubbed "F#ck You Up, In a Cup"😊
We were out one day at a bar in Ames, Iowa (don't remember much about that day so couldn't tell you which one) and we all ordered Long Island Ice Teas. Our group was half & half men & women. The server mentioned they had a sister drink to it for the ladies that had a bit of a cherry flavor instead of the cola. So the ladies all tried it and LOVED it. One of them asked the server afterwards what the drink's name was. "A Liquid Foreplay."
An Irishman playing a French version of an American rock 'n roll icon. There's some sort of allegory there.
France had one, Johnny Halliday.
Nicole and Paddy are great together
OMG "Too boring to be offensive" will forever be in my roster of comebacks LOL
Same.
I was on a cruise years ago and ordered a Pina Colada... the bartender gave me a very serious look and said, "tell the truth... are you going to take a sip and belt out the Panda Colada Song? If so, you can go to another bar." I did not sing the song. We got along just fine.
That would make a great comedy skit, except the bar patron does start singing the song. Resulting in the bartender pulling out a Tazer and zapping them.
@@GeraldH-ln4dv Or the patron getting booted out. Into the rain.
Now taking bookings as French Elvis. 🕺🇨🇵
That was priceless!!!
"French-Irish Elvis" is sort of Anti-Reggae. Even more so than Heavy Polka.
I watch old Try videos while I wait for the new ones to come out, so I can say with confidence that Try is as good as ever. :)
I miss Martin
Me too ❤
Samesies!
You should try each signature cocktail/alcohol from all 50 states! Now that would be epic
Great episode. French Elvis and Gráinne stealing the "What do you think overall" line were the highlights for me. Also, calling coconut "the mushroom of fruits" kind of blew my mind. I love mushrooms and coconuts, but this still made total sense to me and I can't even explain why!
The Harvey Wallbanger, as a variation on the screwdriver, is great - but it's vastly improved by the addition of sloe gin, making it a Slow Screw Against the Wall.
Yeah I loved the name of that drink when I was a freshman in High School. Didn't try it till I was like 24 or so and it was good!
Add in a shot of Southern Comfort for a Sloe Comfortable Screw Against the Wall.
But then you add the Southern Comfort and you have a Slow Comfortable Screw Up Against the Wall
@@jimbeachler9165 True!
While skiing we'd serve Harvey Wallbangers in beer steins and called them Harvey Mountainbangers.
Another gem of a cocktail especially during the seventies was the “Tom Collins”. My mothers favorite.
My mom's favorite as well.
Yes, a nice summery lemonady drink.
I was always partial to a Vodka Collins.
It was so good that in NCO clubs they had a mixer/soda called tom collins mix.. it was delicious.
I love a Tom Collins, very good cocktail.
12 more long islands?! Good luck mate, I would watch that
After 6 someone will be asking the bartender to give him what the gentleman on the floor is having.
The "Wallbanger" part of the Harvey Wallbanger comes from the bottle. It was for many years the longest bottle you would find in any bar and as such would be on the back row up against the wall. Clase Azul Tequila now tends to take that spot in most bars and some don't even have Galliano on the bar anymore.
I love that the Long Island Iced Tea showed up in a video a few years ago, and the Tryers were all "Oh this is delicious I could drink these all day" and the comments were full of Americans going "NO DON'T DO THAT EVER DO NOT DRINK THEM ALL DAY THAT IS A RECIPE FOR DISASTER."
You can TRY and drink them all day. Im good for about 6 and then bad things start happening.
my limit back in the day was 7
@@LindaC616 depends on who the bartender is.
@@beauregardrippey5508 the awful thing was that the best ones came from a bartender who would put a little extra lemonade flavor in there. She was 19, not even old enough to drink them
@@beauregardrippey5508this made me laugh simply because you didn’t elaborate and leave it to the imagination😂😂
"The mushroom of fruit". Best line ever
I'm deeply offended. I love 🍄🟫
I would have to agree. The only coconut that I like, is on the outside of a Zagnut candy bar.
Right? Why does that make so much sense to me?
Looks like it's time for Daragh to meet durian....
I'm in agreement with Daragh on coconut, but he lost me when he said he doesn't like Coke
The liqueur in a Harvey Wallbanger should be Galliano, which you should have definitely tasted. Maybe next time you might want to serve crushed ice on the side so the flavor isn't diluted before the tasting in all these drinks. 👍🍹🍸
outstanding choices of cocktails, colin! i'm an old guy and this was a fun trip back down memory lane. well done, young man!
Paddy and Nicole are the best. They mesh and their comments are the funniest.
Nicole's impression was also decent. She suited/s "old school class"
There is a huge difference between "getting caught in the rain" in the Carribean and in Ireland. One has a warm rain, the other a cold rain.
4:45 - 🎵 Escape (The Piña Colada Song)🎵 when I first heard the name and the cocktail is pretty tasty. Despite, I wasn't aware of the song content but its smooth and laidback to heard. BTW, that's why I growing to love the variety of cocktails that I drank occasionally (drink responsibility) at house or going out. Including discovery new ones is a treatment from my busy life to relax.
Grainne has become one my favorite TRYers.
I find this channel almost flawless. I put it on par with TV, in fact, if I had to purchase it on DVD I wouldn't hesitate and I have purchased a mug from their merchandise store online. In a lot of TV shows there's often at least a character or 2 that are disliked by viewers (obviously which character it is differs depending on the viewer) but with Try, it isn't easy to find flaws with many of its cast or tasters. In my books, Try transcends or surpasses TH-cam.
@@PaulW4 touché
The original Mai Thai recipe didn't have 2 rums in it. 🍹
For any interested:
It was 2 ounces of Wray & nephew 17-year Jamaican rum, 1/2 ounce orange curaçao, 1/2 ounce orgeat syrup, 1/4 ounce white sugar syrup, juice of 1 lime. Shake well with plenty of crushed ice and poured i to a double old fashioned glass.
That thing doesnt even look like a mai tai.
@@ScrewtopReviews its a bahama mama
Exactly
Yes! The color was off from the get go.
I was drinking Long Island Ice Tea in the late 1970's and early 1980's when I went clubbing. The drink is a lot older than the 1990's. It still is one of my favorite drinks today.
First time I had LIIT was at a small bar in Memphis Tennessee in 1977, Stopped in on my way home, asked for an Ice tea - went down so well ordered another. Finished the second one and when I went to stand up - I slid to the floor. I wanted Ice Tea - NOT a damn mixed drink. Wound up sleeping it off in the parking lot!! I still love LIIT!!!
The TRY Channel, This is fantastic! I subscribed because I love it!
Thank you Daragh, you finally gave me the words for how I feel about coconut. It really is the mushroom of the fruit world.
Absolutely my position on coconut and mushrooms.
Absolutely. I can tolerate coconut in sweet stuff (barely), but in savory things like in currys i find it straight up repulsive.
1980 St. Petersburg Florida, the ABC liquor and lounge with a rotating bar....and 2 dollar Long Islands! Yeah baby yeah!
Thank you for having the story of the Pina colada real. I grew up in PR and it was crazy I tried the original in Hotel San Juan, Isla Verde Puerto Rico
Wow the way she could recall the sex and the city theme song from memory is incredible
FINALLY the Try Channel Tryers get Long Island Iced Tea...been waiting for this one.
Nicole: a mai tai is not even close to a long island, the greatest cocktail ever made.
I've never seen a red mai tai before! I'm curious the recipe/proportions used, because it seemed ... off. Most of the ones i've ever had didn't even have any grenadine in at all.
@@Kevin_Lazar they dipped triscuits in chip dip, so I'm not going to argue with you 😂😂
Yeah that was not Mai Tai, that was a hurricane, Bahama mama or something... No where even close to a Mai Tai.
Variations on the Long Island Iced Tea definitely include not using coke and triple sec but sprite and blue curaçao making a Blue Motorcycle, or my favorite the Grateful Dead, same swap out, using sprite and raspberry liquor!
I recall reading about 2 or three variations, all with 'ice tea' at the end, one was Miami, but can't recall the others (no I'm sober).
Grainne saying “What do you think overall” at the end was hands down the best moment of the shoot.
It was so good
Is it possible for this channel to be any more amazing? Try'ers on the "daily grind". "Okay we got that out of our system, put it back into our system now", Grainne has been on fire lately (I wonder if its because of the one Dermot and Ciara were talking about in the Chuao chocolate shoot)
A friend of mine in Tampa FL came up with a cocktail that was particularly interesting called Sulfuric Acid, which was 1 oz of Barcardi 151, 1oz of Apple Shnapps, 1oz Barcardi coconut rum, then filled equal parts 7-UP and Sour. It was really yummy and snuck up on you very quickly. He also introduced me to a Washington Apple. Now that cocktail was addictively good much like the SA.
I love Seamus’ description of how he feels when drinking the LIIT
Fave cocktail is Gin Tonic.
With 2 drops of roses lime👌🍻
And the feel of the ocean, and the taste of champagne!!!!! Boston loves you guys!!!! Keep up the good work. Alcohol vids!!!!!!!!!
Long islands are my favorite cocktails 🍹.. I totally love Paddy 🥰..
Harvey Wallbanger is saying use Galliano which is a large bottle on top shelf which " bangs the wall" when pulling it out to pour. Also Long Island iced tea has a top shelf version called "Texas Tea" using same ingredients but using top shelf liquor.
Patrick saying “ima Gunther” is LEGEND-wait for it-DAIRY
There is a bar where I'm from that has a menu of just the variations of different long island ice teas that they make.
This was a great video y’all. This was a lot of fun. ❤
Now we’re talking! The Long Island Iced Tea! I’m a happy man!
Long islands are my absolute favorite drink to order when i go out. They go down so smooth and easy
Cosmos remind me of Ladies Night bar specials in the late 90's and early 00's
Love the Try drinking vlogs! I've had all of these and love them all.
Lynchburg Lemonade (Jack Daniels, Triplesec and Lemonade) is a good summertime cocktail. For the winter I live a Broken Leg- Hot apple cider and Bourbon (cinnamon stick).
My 1990s cocktail was a Margherita original lime or strawberry. Going to Applebee's with my girls getting fajitas and Margheritas. We used to make Margheritas at Thanksgiving and Christmas too. I still make a batch of Brandy slush at Christmas that is a real throwback to our 1980s Xmas when I was a little kid
Coconut = mushroom of fruits is PERFECT analogy! Both are loomy, earthy.
Sarah I so enjoy her voice and that amazing smile. Long Island any day of the week for me please.
Oh Paddy!❤😂
The 60's should have had 2 drinks. The Grasshopper was very popular here in Louisiana at the time!
I thought it was the case but 12:17 cemented it. Gráinne is my hero and a treasure 🤣.
I hate when the red face dude injects himself… all the time… “y’all like.. cocktails?”
Do like your gf who looks like uncle junior and stay off camera behind the scenes
French Elvis! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I cannot!
Old paddy.a true gent.always lesson to your final openion.
The Harvey wallbanger is my favourite so part of me wants to believe they just didn't float the Galliano on top properly. It's such a fantastic drink done right
Never had a long Island Iced Tea until October of 1989 ( I had 4) and I ended up walking into the river on the riverwalk in San Antonio, TX. lol
Dude, four? I'm shocked you could walk!😂
I had three back in the 90s, and I remember nothing!
Yep, that's what happens.
Trying to walk on water?
@@DeadInside-ew8qb there was limited space after you exit the restaurant and you're supposed to turn left or right because the riverwalk is straight ahead but...
@@steves.6519 sometimes the only path is straight ahead
French Elvis 😂
Really enjoyed this episode, and my suggestion is to try French cocktails or try the most creative cocktails names for the next episodes in the futures. 🍸
Yah... I kind of agree with that one guy about the Long Island Ice Tea about using something other than cola in it. I'm not a drinker though, but drinks interest me.
I had a Mai Tai at a Japanese restaurant some years ago and loved it. I've always wanted to get it again.
Part 1 and 2 were very interesting videos! You guys are awesome! ❤😊
Love 🥰 the accents and especially trying to paint 🎨 with bob Ross f ing hilarious 😆
Funnily enough I can remember the place and time I first had the Iconic drinks from the 80s, 90s and 2000s. Fun video!
I started drinking the Long Islands in the 80's...not the 90's.
I have had the pleasure of drinking a Long Island Iced Tea at the original Oak Beach Inn on Gilgo Beach, Long Island, NY before it got torn down by Babylon Township. If done right, you barely taste any alcohol. 5 equal parts vodka, gin, rum, tequila & triple sec... and just enough cola to change the color brown.
idk if it's a regional thing, but the bars that I used to go to usually served Long Islands with sprite/7-up and not coke/pepsi, which is why it looked more like iced tea, because most of the color came from the alcohol.
Cheers beautiful Irish trY’s .
Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.
that was so great when she said his line lol.
Long island iced tea is my go to. So easy to order and ingest every liquor you want without having to make a choice, that's how I found it😊
Loved this vid. I remember my first long Island ice tees, sitting at the local bar, had two and got up to use the restroom and about feel on my arse.. was a good night.
Long Island Iced Teas are my favourite cocktail. It's definitely my drink of choice. I started drinking them in the late 1980s.
Long island ice teas are DANGEROUS!!! 🤣
I thought Johnny Holliday was the "French Elvis," but that was before Paddy took the title. Takin' care of business in a glass!
As a Long Islander, I was told The Oak Beach Inn on Long Island, NY claims to be the birthplace of the Long Island Ice Tea.
Funny thing--I'm not a drinker, but I love watching you try different alcoholic beverages (as well as all your other videos.) I went out to lunch Sunday and ordered a Blueberry Lavender Lemonade. Instead of the "virgin" drink, the server brought me the cocktail, which has vodka in it. I drank it, unaware that I was having booze. It was still great!!!
8:50 I like Long Islands with either raspberries in it or raspberry syrup. So good!
Love the Carrie Bradshaw reference in the intro!
great video everyone!!! please make more!!!
In Australia in 1980 we had a similar drink to the Pina Colada, which was called The Fluffy Duck. It resembled the taste of tinned pears and ice-cream. It was delicious and had quite the kick. It was also very filling. After two of them you were full and nearly drunk. Miss those days.
30ml Advocaat, 30ml cream, 30ml white rum, 15ml Cointreau, ice and Lemonade.
nicole and paddy are so funny and nicole that was a great elvis imitation
Harvey Wallbanger: always used to think it was named after Harvey Kuenn, MLB ballplayer and manager, notably of the Milwaukee Brewers, who were nicknamed Harvey's Wallbangers. Alas, I am sadly mistaken.
So funny. At @4:20 (no irony on the timing lol) one of the female stars says "Harvey, bang harder".
Long Island iced tea. Might as well be called liquid hangover. With a dash of bad decisions
Yep, Long Islands, “a very specific journey that night” couldn’t be more accurate. Led to bad decisions, and as a result, have not had one since the 90s, either.
I'm going to invent my own cocktail now. That episode has lit a fire inside me
Paddy cracks me up! Always my favorite Tryer!! Please do one shirtless! Such an exquisite man and so freaking funny. French Elvis...too much!!! Lol
I’m with Paddy…Long Island Ice Tea all the way!
That’s my favorite too, most bars make them too sweet. I learned how to make it on ‘How To Drink’ the Jeffrey Morgenthaler version is 🏆👍🏻
12:20 😂 I’m glad someone else noticed the cadence that it usually is uttered.
At my favorite bar they make a Peach Long Island and they make it with Sprite - it is really good.
I had a Long Island Ice Tea, that was made with Dr. Pepper, once. It was maybe even better than the original.
👍
I’m wearing a face mask, I can’t be laughing, but Paddy’s French Elvis is killing me 😂
I enjoyed this one.
When I first started going to bars back in the early 80's, my go-to drinks were the Zombie and the Singapore Sling.
I can drink those until they're coming out of my ears!
The late 80’s is when Johnson City and Kingsport started turning into real cities because of ETSU and Eastman. And omg so many bars. I believe the Long Island in Kingsport, Tennessee on the Holston River story.
Yes, I’m an East Tennessean through and through
Long Island ice teas make me very... we'll say popular 😊 Ah the days of our youth, great one guys, loved every minute ❤️ 😊❤
