Please make this into a series! I’d like to know every Tequila, Vodka, Gin, and Rum cocktails.
Epicurious did a video on how to mix every cocktail a few years ago. I would like more in depth ones but that is a good place to start.
Don’t forget brandy/cognac
@@iphonexplus8099
You mean like Hennessey?
@@user-xs5bl9dy6d yes
@@toolongforyoutoread6 check out the educated barfly if you want really good in depth videos about cocktails and technique
My man really went in for a sip for every single cocktail fully knowing he had 30 ahead of him, and came out the other end barely tipsy. Respect!
Him slowly getting drunk and losing his serious look made it totally worth watching even though I don't drink.
I was just about to post the same thing
Compare the first segment with the final one 😆
Yeah he begins to fall apart at the boulevardier..hehe
right around 8:44 is when he starts to mellow out in his comfort zone
No he isn't.
I thought he started mellowing out while making the Brooklyn. 😂
Is there any chance Karl and Jeff (The other guy from an older cocktail video) might do an episode together? Imagine how awesome would that be.
Yess i need
Jeff is now a writter and he’s doing a show actually
@@iancuspinera1160 That is actually pretty cool! Good for him, moving up in the world
Can we have Karl back for another video? He is an absolute delight!
Everybody's talking about Karl, but noone remembers Jeff from the last cocktail episode
I do, and wasn't sure if Jeff recommended Karl to takeover for this one.
FINALLY, I'M LOOKING FOR A JEFF SOLOMON COMMENT!!! LIKE WHAT HAPPEN⁉️⁉️⁉️
I was surprised it was not Jeff... like yeah this carl was ok, but I missed Jeff relaxed humor.
I mean carl was like a bartender you order cocktail, ask you question then give you the drink & move on...Jeff would be like you sit on the bar he'll smile & sell you a drink, give a joke with the drink & sell you a different drink & the loop goes on!!! I don't know Jeff's like robin Williams or will Smith dropping comment & funny opinion on cocktails!!!
😂😆🤪😜🤣
(I hope he didn't hit someone)
Because it rude
Miss him
I listen to that to call asleep
Let me tell you something, the two cocktail videos got me into a deep dark rabbithole into the history and the art of mixology. It's just so fascinating how much lore a profession which at the surface seems so insignificant has and how much tie in it has with much of the historical events which we are taught in school, and how much it can tie in with how our society has shifted over the decades and continues to.
Thanks to everyone for watching! Hoping you all get to try Karl's Ginger Beer:)
yes
Tried it in a few cocktails at Tales last year. 🙌🏿
This dude is an encyclopedia.
We need Karl and Jeff to collab together for a video!
I wanted to do my homework but my brain wants to watch this
I don't drink Whiskey, but Karl was so engaging and informative..I couldn't stop watching.
man I don't drink alcohol, but for some reason this is really satisfying
edit: wow thanks for the likes and the scam bot
I only drink one night in every few months or so.
What happened to Jeff? :( Now I need an episode with both Karl's more serious demeanor with Jeff's suave charm
need more of this with other types of cocktails
did u watch the first one?
I love the small bits of history of the drinks as he makes them!!
I'm so happy you guys are doing more cocktail videos! Please continue this series!
I’d love to see a series on drinks featuring Karl!! I’m subscribing for more y’all, don’t let me down!
Got a Sazerac at the Absinthe House in Nawlins in '94. Barkeep put a tot of Pastis in the glass and sent it spinning a good 8' in the air before dashing it out and decanting the drink into it. I purely love you tossed the glass
the mixing cocktails video was already my favorite on this channel and i was just watching it again for perhaps the tenth time and so hoping you'd do another like it, and then this one showed up! absolutely excellent, please do more drink-mixing videos!
LOVE THIS!! Thanks for the history bits too! We DEF need vodka, gin and tequila tho 🙌🏾
@8:12 I love the mist of oils he gets out of the orange rind. So satisfying.
I need Karl and Jeff from the every cocktail do a video together q
Can we take a second to appreciate the style of this gentleman
Finally, someone explained why you start with the cheapest ingredients
Should be pretty straight forward no? Can't you Google search and it's first result?
@@TheGreatWall22 most recipes say to do because if you put your spirit in first your being wasteful if your making a mistake
I wish I found this channel a week ago!! This would have helped me study for my WSET level 2 spirits exam. This is great and so informative!
Getting ready to take mine in a couple of weeks!
@@mollyrm Oh nice!! Goodluck to you! I found out this morning that I passed mine! :)
@@junie1482 congrats!!!
Congrats@@junie1482 and good luck to you, Molly.
@@mollyrm how did you do???
YAY COCKTAILS! I love cocktails! 🥃
after learning how to slice every fruit, how to fillet every fish, how to chop every vegetable, how to crack every nut, how to mix every cocktail, how to open every shellfish, how to make every coffee, how to use every japanese knife, how to make every pasta, how to frost every cake, how to cut every cheese, how to butcher every bird, how to shape every bread, how to eat every insect, how to grind every spice, how to slice every meat, how to use every utensil, and how to make every sushi, i'm proud to learn how to mix every whiskey cocktail!
Love a good cocktail drink, and this guy knows how to make them. They go down easy but hit hard..... I stick to straight - neat pours after one cocktail. This guy is the real deal, no crappy shelf bar mix.
Karl is a great teacher to follow up Jeff!
Bravo Karl! I love whiskey, and I just started dipping my toes into mixology!
I want to comment before I finish, first because I appreciate your suggesting a Boulevardier as a canvas to experiment with (DC bartender name of Rose taught me to add a barspoon of Benedictine), but mostly because I'm past bedtime and may not finish. Amigo, I truly appreciate your approach. If you have a channel of your own, I would follow. Been tracking woman and Asian bartenders, but would equally like to track Black bartenders of historical significance, so thank for that bit on Stone sours. Keep up the good work, keep the faith, and be well.
In the Brooklyn, of you're in a state with sane alcohol laws, Torani Amer is the same product. Based on my research into substitutions, 3 parts Amaro Ramazotti, 1 part Aperol, and 2 dashes Orange bitters per oz comes close.
Never drank alcohol but still watched everything 😂😂😂
Fantastic video-gonna have to make some of these!
It made me giggle a bit to hear him call the Carthusian monks “Chartreusian monks.” 😆
Good to see them all together like this.
Ice is the most important part of any cocktail
I once drank 9 coffee and Bailey’s. I had an English class the next day at 8. I made the class but early morning before I thought it to be a good idea to type (yes a typewriter) on water color paper. My teacher looked at my paper then at my hungover face and said never again. I got an A on the paper (which I still have)
I learned a lot Ill have to expand my palate when it comes to spirits!
I don't drink so it's pure viewing pleasure watching this.
i hate to compare them, but i think it’s funny how jeff would push the drink towards the camera like he was bartending and karl takes a sip XD
Dope to see a black bartender. Very insightful.
I love whiskey cocktails so this was a fun watch! I tend to favor a Manhattan so this is giving me some ideas of things to try!
Hey, French person here. Your pronounciation for the "Vieux Carré" is not that bad actually. =) But if you want to make it sound more french, you could insist more on the 'i' in vieux, and separate more the word in two syllabus (vi-eux).
Very nice video by the way, I learned a lot of thing, and I think I'll adapt some of those cocktails at home. ^^
Actually very useful. I love this channel and I need to know this eventually
this was extremely informative and fun to watch. Thanks.
Aight.. You've inspired me to make a Rob Roy my nightcap. Dewars, Lillet Rouge, Laphroaig mist, lemon peel. Let's see how that works...
Alas, the atomizer was dry. As non threatening as a nigh straight Scotch can be, though. Most refreshing.
I had five whiskey sours at a friend’s wedding years ago. I don’t recall too much after that. 😂
Yep they creep up on you. If I have six Old Fashioned" I wake up at the other side of town 😂
Good stuff. Being on the Bourbon Trail, I love a good cocktail. I like a good drink with relaxing cocktail music.
Love this series! Please do this same thing with Gin! 🙏🏻
I thought the original video got taken down or something, then I read the specification of *Whiskey* cocktails. Now we need all other kinds of cocktails as well, make the biggest video archive of alcohol mixing.
I don't even drink and I loved listening to his expertise.
I've just learned so much!
Whenever someone wants a spirit forward drink that’s in the style of an Old Fashioned I always make them a Monte Carlo. It’s never failed to impress
We Need a vodka/tequila version of this
As someone whose first alcoholic drink was the Old Fashioned" how this guy is doing it is pretty solid. Imo the OF" isn't a complex cocktail to make,it just takes effort especially at the end with the orange peel. But once done right,it's a fantastic drink!
Luv how he gets more lit after each drink, jealous
This Video is Amazing, i love Cocktail All day 🍹🍸
This is so useful omg ty!!
i don't even drink but was mesmerized
I always make my old fashioned using lagavulin 16, a scotch whisky so not as traditional as bourbon but so much smoother
I don’t know if an Islay Scotch would make an old fashioned “smoother” even a 16yo… but sounds interesting!
I guess Im in love! Such cool dude!
IS JEFF BACK
I'm also waiting for a reply for that!!!
Karl must have been completely steamed by the end of filming this
Great Video @Karl Franz ! I was Educated, Slightly Inebriated, and Entertained😂
nothing beats the original video
so good
Wooow. He really knows his alchohol... 👍👍
Brown Derby is my favorite, so delicious!
It’s like a greyhound but with whiskey instead of vodka
Great episode
I don't drink and I never plan to, but I just like watching people make cocktails.
He's beautiful and nice to listen to!!!
Bring him back!!
Return of the king
keep up the great content
1 thing my guy, if youre shaking a drink with an egg white, always do a dry shake first before you ice it down
there are so many ways this concept can be expanded!!!!!
instead of just the commentary you can invite a guest. Doesn't have to be a popular personality or anything.
You can bring the grandpa from checking the kitchen gadgets or just some random person.(Most preferably someone with a unique taste to them or just old people. They usually have so much to say)
If you are concerned that the video might end up being too long, you can prepare a set of questions to ask them like how they really got into doing what they are doing, how their parents reacted to them doing this job initially (like being a bar tender is usually not something a parent might think their kid might end up doing) when they first discovered their passion etc:- by asking questions in between, this video can become a bit more personal.
If you do end up implementing it, I just want you to tell the grandpa from testing kitchen gadgets that i love him sooooooooooo much and given him a little bonus for this idea.
Thank You
Bring the guy the did every drink back for the next ep!!
I would love if Jeff came back for the next cocktail video!
saved the best for last! Irish whiskey will always be my favorite. Tullamore D.E.W. !
Excellent sir
Some things in the video are not super "traditional", such as the old fashioned being stirred and not built, but I hope this goes to show that you don't necessarily need to be "right" in every way when enjoying cocktails. Stir your old fashioned. Maybe try your martini actually 'shaken and not stirred'. If there is a way that deviates from the original method and it tastes good, then thats another right way to do it.
Good point, but isn't it necessary to double his bitters quantity because he is using a japanese dasher? The other dashers (i.e. the small angostura bottle) are dropping much more bitters ...
@@katran_2393
Eh he's like 80-90% on the mark. At least he didn't just pour everything in like a slob and forget the orange peel that adds the fragrance and adds to the flavor.
i love cocktails. it's the best example of "if it ain't broke, dont fix it"
I find that being a Bartender is a facinating job
It's not a thankless profession,since you're responsible for making sure everyone's having a fun time.
What rum was used in the julep? We need more of Karl🥰🥰🥰
Magic of Making - Coulis Kofisi
Great video! Definitely have a new cocktails to try. Islay is pronounced “eye-lah” not “is-lay”
18:16 Eye-Lah not Is-Lay.
The gold rush is my favourite cocktail aside the Manhattan
You are enjoyable to watch. Can you do a vid on the Don Lockwood?
Very cool! 👍
Indeed! 🤝
similar to mix every cocktail video but i prefer jeff interaction but good video 👍 with nice additional drink 👍👍👍
I don't drink, but this was interesting to watch 😂
You should make the guides for noodles, tea, rice grains, and rice cooking. It is the important ingredients for most asian cuisines
Please can we have an episode highlighting rum cocktails 😟?
Nice to see the Old Fashioned done right. So many places I’ve gone to use Fireball, which I don’t think is right.
Ew. I would definitely send that back...never had one with anything but actual whiskey
What?? Fireball??😂
You need to specify what to use then.
Because even though the cocktail needs bourbon. There are so many brands,if you say nothing then the bartender will just go a step lower and use Fireball" which everybody knows that's a sweetened whiskey.
@@karl_alan
Ok but an Old Fashioned" is made using bourbon. Whiskey isn't wrong but it lacks that spiciness that bourbon has by default.
@@user-xs5bl9dy6d but fireball isn't whiskey. It's a liquer.
According to the body that governs alcohol in the US, it can't even be called whiskey legally because of all the flavorings and sugar added, so they have to call it a distilled spirit specialty.
Legally, whiskey can only contain grains and water, and needs to be at least 40 proof. Fireball is neither. And it's not even bourbon based before they add all the flavorings and water it down.
An old fashioned is supposed to be bourbon based. And they can even use the bottom shelf, which is way cheaper than fireball, but it should be bourbon. Bourbon needs to be at least 51%corn, aged in new oak, enter the barrel at no more than 62.5% alcohol, and released at no less than 40% alcohol. None of that applies to flavored liqueurs
Wow, I've been missing out on a lot since the pandemic. Are any of your bars in Brooklyn NY?
I was under the impression that when using raw egg always do a dry shake. Is this the case? I noticed no dry shake on the whiskey sour.
He was going for that fluffier texture which you can't get with that dry shake.
The throw achieves the same purpose I think.
Just ordered "The Ideal Bartender"
For a while the Whiskey Sour" use to be another drink I use to order frequently,but where I live they made it a rule that they can't use raw eggs anymore. So I stopped ordering them.
oh nice
You guys should do every way to smoke weed😂
oh mi old fashion🥰
