The Blues Brothers "Orange Whip" | How to Drink
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ส.ค. 2024
- On this episode of How to Drink, I am taking a look at the “Orange Whip” from The Blues Brothers. In the movie, the Orange Whip makes its appearance after it is ordered by John Candy. This drink is on the lower end of the spectrum as far as alcohol by volume goes, nothing like a Martini or an Old Fashioned. It’s more of something like a guilty pleasure. Give it a try and I hope you enjoy. Cheers!
Orange Whip Ingredients:
- 4 oz or 120 ml Fresh Orange Juice
- 1 oz or 30 ml Rum
- 1 oz or 30 ml Vodka
- .5 oz or 15 ml Triple Sec
- 2 oz or 60 ml Heavy Cream
- Shake Over Crushed Ice
- Garnish with Orange Wheel

Greg, love the videos brother, I have my bar staff watch them. Little Triple Sec trivia for you, the “sec” is indeed a reference to the French word for “dry”. In this case however, it doesn’t refer to the character of the spirit, but rather the condition of the Laraha and other orange peels prior to distillation. Keep up the awesome work!
Pinning this to the top! Thanks for the info!
Also it’s not just “sec” that’s French. “Triple” is French for “triple” as well.
Cool! I was wonder since triple sec is sweet rather than dry tasting.
@Fated Circles You think a brandy-based orange liqueur like Gran Torres, GranGala, or Grand Marnier would work better with reposado or aged tequila? That's my theory. Triple sec, which is single-note (orange peel!) goes better with the sharper, piquant blanco or unaged tequilas. The oak-aged brandies would naturally go better with the oak-aged tequila.
@Fated Circles I am partial to the Tommy's Margarita which is simply lime juice, agave nectar and tequila. It's the purest form of a margarita, even if it is no more than a glorified tequila sour.
I'm a fan of oak aged liquors and spirits like whiskeys, Chardonnays, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot. I'm sure an oak-aged brandy base would be welcome in a margarita. The Mexican restaurant near our house uses GranGala ("the poor man's Grand Marnier") in their margaritas.
We called the alcoholic orange julius' we made in college the "orange shoelace". If you had enough of them, you couldn't pronounce julius, and it sounded like shoelace
*episode starts*
"well this is not the first drink he's made tonight"
No it was not.
*When someone drinks from the shaker it's not their second either, (I know I've been there :-D )
@@howtodrink dude this was by far one of the best episodes you done. If you've seen blues brothers 2000. It has some scenes that were filmed in my birth town. Kingston ontario Canada. Look it up it's kinda cool lol
When Greg starts the episode with a dance number, you know it isn't the first cocktail they've filmed that day...
Fair point
I appreciate knowing up front where the rest of the ep is going... :D
He's clearly too drunk, but he's on a mission from God to teach you how to make this drink.
I believe you mean a mission from Gah'd.
There's no such thing as "too drunk" Greg. If Drunkenness is the X axis and Entertainment is the Y axis, Greg is best above the 45° diagonal.
He's missing sunglasses... and... I can't remember what else, but I'm watching it again right now.
@@DanielBrownsan The deer's not!!
It’s 106 miles to Chicago. We got a full tank of gas. A half a pack of cigarettes. It’s dark. And we’re wearing sunglasses.
Hit it.
Sasquatch Hit it
Hit it!
So funny that even Fallout references it.
Hit it..
You know it's gonna be a good video when it starts with a 2 and a half minute praise of the blues brothers
I could have continued...
I made one, don’t put too much ice, I did, also don’t be lactose intolerant, I am.
Advice as true as it ever was
Government thought it was a chem attack
Heavy whipping cream has little to no lactose. It's the fat not the sugar part of the milk.
I'm also lactose intolerant, and am considering making this drink with some coconut cream instead of heavy whipping cream. Maybe I should call it the "Island Whip" or something to that effect, since it will actually be a pretty sizable change to the flavor profile.
@@HaydenX Perhaps if you do that, use some funkier rum as well?
"Who wants an orange whip? Orange whip? Orange whip? Three orange whips." -John Candy
Made a poor person version of this today. Concentrated frozen oj, milk, vanilla extract, and rum. D-LISH! Just started watching your series and I'm quickly falling in love. Keep it up!
"It's got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas."
Traded it for a microphone.
@@howtodrink Elwood would say it was a great trade.
Fix the lighter.
Doesn't he say "cheap gas"?
@@mwilliamshs Nope. Regular gas. Back when we used that sort of thing.
Don't ever sell this show to tv, I'd hate to think what execs would do to this mastery of TH-cam gold. Cheers.
i think you should definitely do something like an alcohol 101 and just explain briefly what everything is in the bar and how it’s made or what it’s for
You really screwed the pooch by not using Dan Aykroyd's Crystal Head Vodka in the recipe.
Ben Dover I said the same thing.
Ehh there are better Russian vodkas out there he probably used stoli cuz its been cheap and common as for dans vodka it wasn't around at the time of the filming gota rember what the blues brothers are like most likely not gona be a primo drink instead it will be a mix of rail drinks
He probably wanted to have the cocktail actually taste like something besides rubbing alcohol. That shite is nasty.
I say, when Aykroyd sponsors the channel, THEN he should use that vodka. Until then, he should use the soon-to-become-national-vodka Stolichnaya. (Ask someone who lived in Soviet Russia what that joke means.)
@@JakobKaine_BrickJAK Yea Stolichnaya is a good vodka, especially stoli Elite. Though gets little pricy for vodka
BLUES BROTHERS!!! Hands down one of my favorite movies of all time.
I particularly like how Greg takes the time to respond to all of the comments!
I’m trying to!
Wow! Production value even 4 years ago was phenomenal! Found you in 2022 and looking forward to binging even more!
Based on all the hearts I'd say you're still drunk. Nice
They cost me nothing!
@@howtodrink, and they are worth just as much.
It's always a joy to hear someone who adores the Blues Brothers. One of my all time favorites.
I’m addicted to the Blues Brothers. Watch it every couple of years
this is a great plan
Had to make this one. Easy sippins! There really couldn't be an easier, more accessible "cocktail" than this. I could have (too) many of these.
This is literally the greatest cocktail channel on TH-cam.
Thank you! Glad you found it!
“It is just.....alcoholic candy.”
DUDE, I’M IN!!!
A lost art and interest picked up by someone in this modern era is remarkable in itself. Bravo.
You got me to start making my own cocktails. Thanks Greg!
This show is goin' places.
I hope so!
Does it pair well with four fried chickens and a coke?
Mr. Marvelously.
Or plain dry toast
Pretty much everything pairs well with four fried chickens and a Coke
I think you mean Mr. Fabulous!
Chicken wings or chicken legs?
Watching the bottles shake on the shelf as he danced satisfied me.
" there's even some nazis, and they get run off a bridge, and that's great " 💖
your thinking of the wrong "nazis", keep your head out of politics
This channel is so underrated.
Thanks so much!
Love it when you get excited about the episodes and have fun making them! It shows and we all like it too! This was one of your best.
Oh my God I remember my dad watching this film when I was younger😍
Oh my God he loved my comment😍 much love❤❤
Funnily enough, i actually clicked on this video because i remembered it as "the drink john candy ordered in Blues Brothers." My brothers and i favorite movie growing up, no contest whatsoever!
You have a a Pearl Diver glass, and haven't done a Pearl Diver yet. I know you thought about it, but why not? Great show as always.
I need to find a new recipe for the pearl diver. The one I’ve got requires way too much effort to make and yields an unsatisfactory drink. I also need to go drink more examples, because I’m not even sure I know what it’s supposed to taste like.
"You can take your four fried chickens and dry white toast...." RIP Aretha, Queen of Soul
The oddest things can trigger the most obscure memories, I guess that's a thing when you reach my age. But there was an Orange Julius booth in our local mall, it was a short, single-level like the one in Blues Brothers. Dimly lit, grimy. I remembered the OJ booth, shared with Pretzel King, always had a long line. And yeah, it's basically an orange milkshake...almost like melted orange sherbert. I never liked it because it always stung my throat, but my friends chugged it. Meanwhile, at the BACK of the mall, before food courts were even a thing, there was a bar. Just...a bar. In memory, it's painfully 80s with blue and pink neon. But, this video brought it all together with us kids in the center of the mall, waiting for OJ, while the adults were at the back entrance, chain smoking and listening to the Commodores on the jukebox. I don't know why I think it's strange now that a bar would be at a mall, when that was a thing in the 1980s. It wasn't a restaurant. It didn't serve food. It was just where the men went to hide while the women shopped.
Then the food court came, which killed the mid-mall grill/cafeteria. Taco Bell moved in. Then they built a $1 cinema with 8 screens. Then the arcade was put in. Mortal Kombat II came out alongside the first movie and THEN the bar just gave up the ghost. I'm shocked it lasted the twenty years it did. All that said, it's sad that the bar and OJ booth didn't have a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup thing happen. It seems almost natural. Then again, it was mostly single men during the day. The ladies didn't start walking in until around 8, where the bar remained open until midnight, long after the mall closed at nine. I guess 80s men weren't secure enough to have a lil OJ with their vodka. Their loss.
One of the first drinks I ever had in my life and I like the fact that you actually have a video on it.
I aim to please!
I'm making this tonight and watching Blues Brothers, love the show!
This channel is the absolute best. So glad I subscribed.
Thank you!
Blue's Brothers is a very entertaining movie and so are Greg's videos. A perfect match
Recently only saw your new series, so psyched! I see the quality of production and hosting haven't budged. It's so rare to see hosts where their personality is so genuine and likable without gimmicks!
best part of making drinks at home. drinking from the shaker
This channel is proof if you do something often and you do it well you'll succeed
I’m succeeding?!
How To Drink I'd say a 25k sub growth in a month is succeeding haha, you'll be larger than 100k sooner than you think mate!
Oh I hope so!
Yes. When the Blues Brothers song and dance happened, I knew my subscription was worth it.
I love this drink and make it all the time. I learned it here. I've made 1 minor change that makes a bigtime difference in how the cream-cicle flavor comes out. Use vanilla vodka. It helps the taste pop bigtime.
FINALLY!! I already binged watched your shit and waiting for the next one was killing me.
would love to see a video from on how you like to setup your stations if you were to be making drinks for some occasion
That first sentence is me exactly 😂
You're stepping into Binging with Babish's territory. You have to pay your dues... through a collab.
I’m all for it
Only problem is you'd probably have to go to New York if you're not already there. Great place to visit if you did, just really expensive.
I live like 30 blocks from him actually.
OH GOOD GOD YEEEEEESSSS!
Guess what, he did😂
This was the first movie I ever saw on Home Video. I was 11 or 12 at the time and never stopped loving it. I have shown this movie to all my kids at that age, and when the massive pile up happens at the end of the second act, my kids started laughing and didn't stop for a week. I cannot overstate how much I love the Blues Brothers.
Love how all your bottles are dancing with you in the beginning, they're as excited as you are
I really don't know how you dont have more than 58k subs, this channel is amazing holy shit.
Thanks! The answer is that I'm very bad at the internet.
Even so, you are doing such a good job with your videos that people should know about you, I showed you to my friend and he was like wow the slowmo stuff and the camera work is like perfect. Keep up the good work man, I love your channel.
I found your channel a couple days ago and have been working through watching all of them and honestly these are my favorite videos on youtube. Keep up the great work and thank you!
Thanks so much Mark!
They actually got permission to have that chase in the mall due to the mall being scheduled for demolition.
One of my favorite movies of all time and I implore anyone who hasn't seen it, do so.
Great work Greg!
You must be the only TH-cam person to make this drink. When I searched TH-cam for Orange Whip I mainly got Golf instruction videos
I own the orange whip
There is a blues brothers statue in Rock Island, IL. That movie was great. How To Drink is great. It’s all great.
That’s awesome about the statue and thank you!
HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS, ALSO TRY HARRIS PIZZA
I hate Illinois Nazis almost as much as I love this show
Hell. Yes.
AirForceBalls LOL. I was going to make the same comment. Guess we are brothers from another mother (or orphanage).
The only explanation for sure
I hate Ilinois Nazis too!
I heard those bums won their court case!
An orange whip was also a soft drink. There used to be machines in movie theaters, 7-11's, U-Totems, Etc. It was a simple machine that continually frothed and recirculated various flavors of non-carbonated fruit flavored drinks like cherry, grape, and of course orange.
I'm here because of The Blacklist Season 6 Episode 1. At 19:19 into the episode, Dembé asks Raymond if he wants another Orange Whip. Immediately following Raymond's response (on the very next beat), he says the remainder of John Candy's line word for word, first to the gentleman that Raymond is seated next to, and then to a woman who was standing at the table who just showed up. So, Dembé's lines that are an obvious homage to The Blues Brothers is as follows:
To Raymond: "Do you want another Orange Whip?" Raymond responds affirmatively.
To the other two: "Orange Whip? Orange Whip?"
Short pause.
"Three Orange Whips."
I decided to find out what an Orange Whip is because I think it looks delicious. Greg, thanks to you, now I know that this is yet another great reference in The Blacklist to some great T.V. show or a movie, in this case The Blues Brothers!
just watched Blacklist S6 ep1 (2019) and Raymond Reddington's bulter slash bodyguard, Dembe recites the John Candy line in a bar scene....cracks me up had to repeat the scene to double check...lol
I felt like you were a bit more candid in your small talk during the making of the drink and that was pretty awesome.
Favorite movie ever. Was watching in 2018
Me, my girlfriend and my newborn binge-watched pretty much every one of your videos last night. Simply superb. I love when you add in fun facts about the drink or about the pop culture surrounding it. Love your channel!
Thank you so much! Hope you’re having a happy new year!
OMG!
first 30 seconds
slow motion cocktail preparation + his brilliant dance!
He's awesome :D
The dance is with me.
Your reactiom @4:51 is priceless. I can see myself drinking this at some beach bar in the Caribbean.
Blues brothers is amazing, it’s a classic comedy but still manages to be underrated.
Totally underrated!
It's legit unnerving that this classic is over 40 years old. Time flies.
Best subscription since Binging With Babish
"Add 7 ounces of fresh squeezed arnch juice"
Sometimes it's hard to drop the Jersey
@@howtodrink you should colab with brad Leone, he is also from jersey
My sister born and raised in North Georgia called it ornch juice for years.
@@ocloud7389 oh god, I could just imagine. Have Hunzi edit it with Greg.
I swear I've never met anyone in person who even knows what the Blues Brothers is. Its my favorite movie of all time and I have NO ONE to talk to about it! Good Choice of drink brother.
After binging all of the past episodes, waiting for this one felt like an eternity. This channel is an absolute gem.
This was really fun to watch Greg! Keep the videos coming.
Dude, I love that you have 60K subs and you still take the time to love every comment mere seconds after they're written. I'm imagining you just shit-faced all day watching the comment section on your computer and genuinely getting ecstatic every time somebody appreciates your content.
Dude!!! I came across your video by chance. It was “recommended to me.” I don’t even drink anymore but watching you make the drinks is very entertaining! You have a really good, sort of, charisma. I really dig the old music and speakeasy type feel with your videos. You mix in just the right amount history as well! Love it. Subbed and belled!
Thank you!
I love that movie and that drinks sounds delicious. A little bit if vanilla flavors and it sounds like you'd have a creamsicle whip. You should write a cookbook of all your drinks inspired by movies and TV shows. Keep up the great work
I’m mostly here for the Blue Brothers quotes. In 1987 I was an exchange student in Germany. At that time Blues Brothers was a cult hit a la Rocky Horror. People would dress up, yell lines, throw stuff. It was a blast.
Found your channel tonight and I've been watching back through the stuff that caught my eye; I think this is my favorite so far. When you asked about the last time [I] saw the Blues Brothers I actually said 'too long' just before you read my mind. (Also, the drink looks great, I'm going to have to try one when I get a chance)
Would love to see your take on the Vieux Carré! It get's far too little attention and is very friendly for a drink that is 100% booze.
Thankyou for this, the orange whip line has been a running gag in my family for probably about 30 years, I can't wait to make this for Christmas
Your family with thank you, then drink too many of these and fall asleep.
I love that intro and yes...I watched the movie after.
Dude I am impressed to see your channel grow. It feels like just a few months ago you were crossing 20,000 subs.
Thank you!
You need to make the rounds on some podcasts and other TH-cam channels to get the word out. Very underrated TH-cam Chanel
This is a good idea, and thanks!
Those slow motion shots are the most satisfying thing ever
legitimately one of my favourite channels on youtube
I’m humbled and gracious!
RIP Matt 'Guitar' Murphy :(
Thrilled to see new videos coming out!
I'm literally 14 and have no use in watching a video about drinks, but the video editing is so good, just comes to show quality over quantity
Thanks man! Ive actually considered doing a series of “temperance drinks”, basically covering a series of real quality classic soda counter concoctions, think that would go over well?
God the sheer fucking enthusiasm and energy in these videos could power the United States for years
We’re working on a machine that will tap my as yet unharnessed mania for exactly this purpose.
Going to be big like Binging with Babish! Should definitely collab
Yes two hairy men drinkings cocktails, cookings stuff. Make it happen!
Best movie ever, "well uh, we'll talk to bob"
Fisher and Ackroyd were briefly engaged, but never married. I had to look it up.
Great show. I discovered it just stumbling around, and it's getting me through shelter in place and all the chaos that goes with it.
Thanks for that.
Cheers.
Last watched the Blues Brothers in 2016 when I was showing my now wife one of the best movies ever made.
Ray Charles and Aretha Franklin were in it too. When I went into Rock Island Illinois for work there was a statue of the blues brothers.
Damn Illinois Nazis...
“Got my cheese whizz boy ?”
Love your channel man! Just watched all of these in a row! I'm Rachel's Ambelangs brother she showed me this and now I'm hooked. Side note... you shown me that I'm completely uncultured in my drinking. Up until now I thought there was just long islands and frozen margs but no... you opened a whole new world for me and for that I am eternally grateful.
That looks like a really lovely new summer drink to add to the repertoire
My dude I fucking NEED you to collab with Binging With Babish, you’re like the same personality in two different fields on TH-cam. Please man
Would love to
Mission started, get the fucker to contact ya!
Loved Orange Julius as a kid. Orange Julius with booze = Heaven
Greg in every video: *takes a sip*, *3 second silence*, okay, that’s really good.
*but not the Vesper or White Russian
hello . the blues brothers is my favorite movie , and my friend sent me this video . i can ' t drink yet , but i watched this anyway because i love hearing people talk about my interests . when i tell you i was so so happy when i saw you talk about the blues brothers i mean it .
Dude I just found this channel. It's such a great idea and you do a great job making it different than all the typical drink videos. This channel is going to take off soon!!!
Fingers crossed, and thanks!
Saw you on a Spazie video, im here to stay, great content boi
Thank you and thank you Sp4zie!
me too
"it is just alcoholic candy" -- love it!
Any drink with heavy cream is bound to be good. I was almost worried that the show was cancelled. Happy we still going.
No way! I DID get into a big fight with the network, but I marched right into the old man's office and I told him where he could stick it! When I threatened to walk out during sweeps week, he knew I was serious.
