If you want to make Meredith watch Star Trek, start with the original series. It's shorter and Shatner's prima donna to everyone else's good acting is hilarious.
@@adde9506 nah. Watch TNG S2 episode "Measure of a Man" then skip to S3, E1 and just watch until the Warf / Troi love interest ruins season 7.
More Ranger Greg !!!
I'd say at least give it one more episode. I didn't really dig the first one either, but got sucked in on EP02. Def record the viewing if you do for reactions, though
Episode idea: Top 3 great cocktails on a budget - either using simple ingredients readily and cheaply available OR taking more refined drinks and attempting to reverse engineer them with cheaper ingredients?
Fun fact: the Riker Maneuver was apparently because actor Johnathan Frakes had a old back injury that made getting into chairs like that difficult, so doing that maneuver somehow helped getting in more comfortable
Hey thanks for the info explains some stuff
My favorite is when he does the reverse version
In the Star Trek Online mission "Night of the Comet" you go back in time and help one of Scotty's colleagues get a little drink in her (a "Nerve tonic") to get over an attack by weird aliens - it's described as a stronger version of a Samarian Sunset, served warm in a stemmed glass with a drop of honey for garnish.
I'll never forget that mixture, I dunno why it was so hard for me when those seasons were released lol
How do you garnish with a drop of honey?
@@The_Jovian I picture a drop of honey dripped onto the top of the drink and settling to the bottom, not really doing too much to the drink itself but having it end on a sweet, syrupy note. Kinda like if you put sugar in a cup then make coffee over it you end up with a sweet last gulp.
Shot in the dark idea for the Samarian Sunset:
Don’t chill the drink, keep it as clear as possible, and at the end you garnish with a small frozen cube of lemon juice and gold luster. Thus as the cube melts you get an approximation of the “sunset”.
Ooooh, clever play.
Nicee idea
Ranger Greg is the only sponsored segment I'm ever EXCITED to see in ANY content. You come up with such fascinating drinks for Yellowstone Bourbon! I'd love to see another episode playing with the Samarian Sunset.
As a TNG kid, Picard gets the crew back together and it really gets good towards the end.
I, at no point, intend to make almost anything you showcase on the show, but I can't stop watching your channel. Every video you make just hypnotizes me. I can't help but love the chill nature of you talking through the drinks' processes. Love your stuff, Greg, keep it up.
Same😂, I don’t even really drink unless I’m with friend, but his personality keeps me watching
"You know Data can f--k?"
That made me do a literal spit-take.
And Greg stroking his bar spoon
What can we say, Dr. Soong knew his priorities.
Also, it's in the first two seasons of TNG somewhere. You didn't miss out.
He is fully functional and anatomically correct.
Pretty sure it's the SECOND episode.
I was telling someone this just the other day & they didn’t believe me so I had to find the clip on TH-cam. 🤣 Classic.
Fully functional...programmed in multiple techniques...
The only advertisements I've ever willingly sat through: Yellowstone Bourbon! I love the beautiful shots of the national parks, I love the focused themed cocktails that seem created with a purpose and not just to be aimlessly different, and I love the hat.
The "Riker Maneuver" is due to Jonathan Frakes' chronic back pain. It's difficult for him to bend down like a normal human would while sitting, and he'd been sitting in chairs like that for quite some time before starting filming of TNG.
👍 he worked as a removal man (mover) before becoming an actor and that’s where the injury happened.
I always thought Kanar would be a fun one to try and make. From what we know of it on ds9 it’s thick and syrupy in consistency and spoils over time. In one episode they drink an expensive and older vintage that is thinner in consistency so it’s possible it thins out over time or that more expensive Kanar has a higher alcohol content. Usually when they are said to be drinking more expensive Kanar it seems to act like hard liquor while more general Kanar has been seen being drunk in quantities equivalent to wine. It’s also seen in a few colors in the show the biggest outliers that come to mind are the blue and orange varieties rarely seen, the dark colored syrupy version seems to be the most common. And we also know that on set they used Karo syrup for it. Maybe it’s the cool looking bottles or the weird consistency but I’ve always found Kanar intriguing.
This is a bit of a deep cut, but there's a cocktail called the "Tarantula Fizz" in the Three Stooges movie "The Outlaws is Comin'!" I don't remember the exact list of spirits that went into it, but I do recall tequila and one-day-old bourbon, along with "a cactus twist," where the outlaw preparing it wrings out a cactus over the glass.
Cardamom and Caramelised raisin bitters seem like a good fit for a Starfleet Old Fashioned. We know from Lower Decks that the Boimler estate farms raisins, and it' makes sense for some of them to make it into a prestige cocktail ingredient.
lmao "that's good!" I love how genuinely happy you are for Data in that moment. I, too, am happy for him.
If you want a colour changing drink, you could infuse your base spirit with some splitpea flowers to make it dark blue, then have a pipet or something with any acid in it, and drop it into the glass and it'll turn a light pink/purple. You could have the pipet in your hand and make it look like you're just tapping the glass while injecting the acidifier. It won't look like a Samarian Sunset but it'll have that colour changing effect. (Correction: butterfly pea flowers, which is also sometimes sold as Dok Anchan Tea, or Sweetpea Tea)
thats so fricken cool
ah yes! butterfly pea blossom! my favorite gin, empress 1908 has that in it and it's always fun to make it change color
You mean butterfly pea tea
@@jayvalentine2046 Sure do! My mind was probably on soup.
he's done something similar before in the zelda potion episode.
As disappointed as the first two seasons of Picard left me, the final season (plus, fair credit, John de Lancie single-handedly CARRIED Season 2 on his back) really made it worthwhile in my opinion, absolutely worth the ride and one last farewell to the crew that managed to satisfy me and even clean up some of the messy bits the movies had left us with ages ago. Gonna make some of these drinks to celebrate.
Loved the episode. I catch all your episodes even though I don't imbibe. I always love these off the cuff episodes because I love the process and the science and the craft, and we don't always get that when you've worked things out before hand (though you usually do a good job of explaining your choices regardless of how long you've spent working on a recipe.)
Great video. I would have called Riker's drink a "Fashion Forward", but that's just me.
Episode idea: Top 3 great cocktails on a budget - either using simple ingredients readily and cheaply available OR taking more refined drinks and attempting to reverse engineer them with cheaper ingredients?
Rum + coke or oj + vodka. But I'm with you on the idea.
Wonder if you can play with adhering the glitter on the spoon. That way it is one color before you stir it, and another post stir
Hell yes, Ranger Greg is back in the houuuuuse! And in the middle of a Star Trek: HTD episoooode! Is it my birthday or something? Why you being so good to me, Greg?
My partner and I are always watching your vids, you've taught me so much! In this, for the Samarian Sunset, I wondered if it might work to do something with butterfly pea flower ice cubes or putting the Lustre dust into ice cubes? It wouldn't necessarily be an instantaneous reaction, but a slow transformation.
I really think for the Sunset that you could use a botanical spirit that can louche AND some luster dust, that way you could drop ~a tablespoon of ice ice ICE cold water and it will not only louche the spirit but it should somewhat fall to the bottom (being more dense AND colder than the spirits) disturbing the luster to create maybe a *little* of the sfx feel
Would love to see an episode dedicated solely to some cool/innovative hot drinks!
Not a minute into the episode and I already know that I will love it... so a normal video upload day.
a fun show with some interesting drinks, this has been my favorite episode since a while - and I am not even a trekkie!
3:18 I love Chopin and this nocturne was my a part of my classical music introductory faves, don't hate ok 😂
Loved how both the drinks came together. And yes to the return of Ranger Greg drinks!
if the yellowstone partnership is gonna continue as a series again, i’d love to see what you’d do for new river gorge! forgive me if you’ve done it already and i’ve just forgotten, but seeing some representation for my home state’s national park would be awesome :)
Whilst Picard doesn’t really speak to me, I really enjoy the vibes you strummed up.
The Sunset looked fantastic. Hope you revisit it at some point if you ever do an episode about revisiting drinks you had plans to tinker with. I'm sure there's plenty of them
Just curious, why don't you guys use your bar uplight in your videos anymore? I always thought that was a pretty cool way to display your drinks, and then one day it just wasn't being used anymore.
Ranger Greg's commercials are the only commercials I don't block or skip.
Loving this Picard inspired episode. As a life long "Trekkie" Picard Season 3 was definitely the best. Thinking you need to go ahead and do this same concept with some "retro" tv shows and rethink/update drinks inspired. Thinking XFiles - might be able to have a little fun with that. Love the show - been watching from almost the beginning. Now - off to make the Riker Future Fashioned.
Lucy fought hard for Star Trek ⭐✨❤ We Love Lucy 💕⭐🖖🏻
I’d love to see you do an episode in this format about Farscape. There are some interesting drinks and things in it, it’s some good scifi.
Greg, for the future, there are some substances (hot sauces, or probably other things) that turn colors when you agitate them/flick a glass. That could definitely do a similar thing for the sunset!
I wish there was a bar where I could try all of Greg’s creations from all the years of how to drink.
Greg, open a bar! Haha
I love this format! I skipped the chainsaw man one because I have no interest in that show, but even a very minor interest in Star Trek made me watch this ASAP.
Keep up the great work y'all.
When you sipped the "Future Fashioned" and went, "Whew! That's fun!" I said, "It's a Riker drink all right."
DS9 is one of my wife's favorite shows now. She's on season 5 and already asking which series to watch next lol.
I would think for the Samarian Sunset that you could add a mixer shot to add to a clear drink to imitate the color effect.
What does it say about Yellowstone sponsored episodes that I’m more excited for the ad than I am for the rest of the video’s recipes 😂
thank you for everything you do! i love your shows!
NGL, I was very excited for more Ranger Greg.
It's always nice to find out that someone you like is a trekker.
Wonder if using Glenmorangie Sherry Cask would make that raisin flavor pop more.
I’m usually never this early! Greg, I do woodworking with one of the best companies in America, I see you recently got an epoxy and wood serving board, but whenever you’re ready for a new live edge walnut bar, let me know! Or, I would love to make you a set of custom coasters to match it!
Look at you, Greg, smashing that frozen Borg cube!
Love it when you do these!
i wouldnt mind more like this, it was hilarious. it was a cocktail of Reaction, Heckling and Recreating, deelish.. XD
Two anime I'd like to recommend for inspiration:
Death Parade
It plays in a bar (of sorts) and each episode or two people enter. Would be interesting what you'd create based on what we learn about them during their stay. Oh, and the intro is baller.
Mahoutsukai no Yome/The Ancient Magus' bride
The main protagonists are really interesting and their development over the course of the series is fascinating. They are also very different in many ways but similar in others.
The young girl is auctioned of to a mysterious magus who is actually more like a spirit or demon. She has a special property but is also ver frail and has been shunned because she could see strange beings that others can not. So she decides to give herself up to be sold so she can have someone who wants her.
He is thousands of years old and a very powerful mage but in many ways he's like a child at heart. So don't think he really understand what a bride means. This is a wholesome show. Except when it's scary. Or Titania appears.
Esp. their early interactions are very cute.
Great episode!
Star Trek episode AND Ranger Greg is back? OH YEEEEAAAAHHH!!!
Rosemary would look more piney. I love Ranger Greg.
Most people don't realize that the National Mall and tidal basin are National Parks. It's cherry blossom season. Maybe something with Luxardo and/or Orgeat to celebrate?
Love the episode but I've got to say they LED you wrong telling you to skip the first two seasons a little bit of a slow build-up but it's also very important as to what is happening in the broader setting
RANGER GREG! THE MAN, THE MYTH, THE LEGEND HAS RETURNED!"
Star Trek AND Ranger Greg? Best HTD ever!
For anyone who hasn't watched Picard yet... you can Start watching at season 3. New show runners, and so much better storyline/production than 1 and 2
Love your show greg
i freaking love the yellowstone bourbon clips lol
03:00 Greg may hate him now....... but he's gonna LOVE him later lol Shaw is the best new character in Trek, hands down. And Todd Stashwick is fantastic as him.
Suggestion: I like the making drinks on the fly concept like this, it got me thinking when I was watching the customer is always wrong videos... It seems like folks for whatever reason want to make drinks with Sprite, it'd be interesting to see an episode of you trying to make cocktails with Sprite... Can Sprite be successfully used as a mixer?
For Halloween this year, could you do an episode with drinks inspired by the Silent Hill game franchise? You would make me a very happy fan!
Finally Greg is getting back to Star Trek! So excited
ok, your commercial spot is awesome - I will be making a lodgepole pine yellowstone drink at some point. I need tall ice cubes for sure.
NG DS9 and VOY are some of the best TV out there, no cap. I'm even feeling generous today, Enterprise isn't bad.
Oh I *loved* Zero Fux Beverly Crusher going after the raiders with a pump-action disruptor (I'm like 80% sure that in universe that it's some sort of disruptor, but it's definitely a blasting gun). Your criticisms.. they may be valid. But *THEY'RE WRONG* (planting my Federation Flag on a hill that I intend to die on)! Also, it's the 25th century, and Jameson has survived the Eugenics Wars, galactic expansion, wars with the Klingons, Romulans, Cardassians, the Dominion and the GODS DAMNED BORG as the well-whisky of choice everywhere! I'm all for it!
LOL I had a very similar reaction to that song in the beginning.
omg i'm sooo here for this
Ah shoot. I wish Star Trek V was at Yellowstone and not Yosemite so that Ranger Greg could have had a fun tie-in.
All this talk of Mezcal make me wish for a Hunter Thompson How to Drink.
Singapore Slings with Mezcal on the side,
Chivas Snowcones, etc
The title for this video lasted about 1 hour before it was changed. 😂
An Orion hurricane was a cocktail mentioned on an episode of Strange New Worlds.
Aldebaran whiskey! I waited through that and no "It is green."?!?! Argh!
I feel like I remember some of the "guns/phasers" in the newer star trek movies had a pump action to them.
Very fun content!! I'm enjoying this series myself, I'm really glad to see it again after Chainsaw Man! :)
Jonathan Frakes had a back problem. That's why he mounted chairs in that fashion. That's also why he had that "Riker lean" when he was standing. He couldn't stand for long periods of time. Will Wheaton just mentioned it in an episode of "The Ready Room" with Brent Spiner recently.
That cool mezcal bottle gives Fifth Element vibes.
Hey Greg, you are doing a lot of Drinks made from various potions from video games etc you should give Path of Exile a try for example the Bottled Faith or Taste of Hate would be interesting keep up the great content you got me into cocktails and wine :)
I was waiting for Greg to breakout into the Monty Python Lumberjack song there for a moment.
Mezcal pairs VERY WELL with brandy. Not so much bourbon. And the Wisconsin old fashioneds are starting to be really popular.
Woah woah woah. Drinks and star trek ? I'm telling the legendary Rich Evans from Redletter media.
So, I just finished watching Picard. Shaw kept making me think 'is that Greg from HTD?' through the whole series. I liked the character. Don't be offended.
Nice on the Garrison Brothers bourbon..... Your "new fashioned" is basically like an improved whiskey cocktail though.. not so new. But I will say that the flavors are new for sure. If you reworked it with similar stuff, desert door sotol has a special release aged in garrison brothers casks.
Could you make kanar from star trek DS9 ?
Thin and Thick versions.
2oz gin
1oz triple sec
1oz lemon juice
1oz pomegranate juice
1/2oz honey syrup
Dash of angostura.
Courtesy of chatGPT. Haven’t tried it myself.
Yo Greg, is that a Blackmagic Atem Mini you're using for your multi-cam setup? Looks great. Sucks that they only allow 1080p camera preview unless you spend a ludicrous amount of money on a video switcher.
I made a martini from some infused earl grey tea gin and called it a Picard. It’s even better with an egg white in it
Greg, you should do drinks based on Cuphead. Both the game and show, there's so many potions and drinks you could make!
I think for that first drink it could’ve been a good twist to add cherry grenadine to it after you poured it BUT use a syringe basically touching the bottom of the glass so that as you squirt(?) it in it’ll swirl upwards and around kinda like the show version.
I wish I could send you my James T Kirk Bourbon Whiskey. it's pretty good!
I like this
Question: how do freeze dried fruit powders work in cocktails? Would it be a good replacement for colored mixers or food colorings, especially given the flavors? Does it mix well or is it more of a fuss?
Fun fact: The Riker Maneuver is because Frakes had suffered a back injury that made taking a seat the normal way painful for him.
Wondering what wine would be the closest to Chateau Picard? Seems like no one in Star Trek likes it, except Picard!
According to what few hints we've gotten over the years (including Worf "I like cloyingly sweet prune juice" son of Mogh's opinion), it's a fairly dry red. So look in that direction, maybe?
Shiraz or Tempranillo.
Burgundy. Chateau Picard is in La Barre, part of Eastern France in the administration district of Bourgogne-Franche-Comte, aka the former regions of Burgundy and Franche-Comté.
Thus, wine from Chateau Picard would be a Burgundy wine.
I really enjoyed the series, as much as there were a lot of things I was critical of.... How did they make Poochie.... Interesting, sorta? And the hes mcguffin... Also a lot of "hey I know that guy, oh he's dead".
Follow up comment. Since Catalyst Game Labs just blew up the internet with their Battletech: Mercenaries kickstarter, You need to do an episode exploring drinks inspired by the setting (also I think Catalyst is releasing a cookbook/ drinkbook for the Inner Sphere)
Speaking of color changing cocktails you should check out Kevin Kos most recent video
Did you know there are Star Trek wines and spirits out there made, would love to see a full review done on all the bottles they have.
if you revisit the sunset in the future, maybe a candy or gelatin bubble filled with luster dust dropped in at the end would have the effect, since it would dissolve quickly. also it's a hunch but I bet that a tall thin stem factors into how much of a swirl you would get when flicking the glass here on Terra Firma.
It's very appropriate that the Samarian Sunset has hits of chocolate, given that Troi was the one Data made it for, and she's an abject chocoholic.
Every time a transporter is used, they disintegrate a person and rebuild an exact clone with all of the memories somewhere else
