- 1934 Russian Cocktail - Early Vodka Cocktail - Cocktails After Dark
In 1934 and earlier Vodka cocktails didn't appear in many American cocktail books - for sure you could find a few, but Vodka wasn't all that popular yet and not many brands were imported to the U.S. and Canada. I do find more (when I say more I mean 2 or 3 instead of 0 or 1) Vodka cocktails in European cocktail books of this same vintage; but still not popular by any stretch of the imagination.

1/3 Creme de Cacao

Time for a Glen and Julie cocktail book! You could give historical props to the original and explain your additions, changes, etc.
Yes please!!!❤
Yes please!!!🥃
This was the first time I yelled "YES" at the screen while watching a video of yours. When you decided to make that third drink, I got excited and expected great things with it! Did not disappoint. Great call. I am not a cocktail person, but I bet this one, especially that one with the egg is amazing! Great call!
Adding the egg white was genius - I will definitely be trying the Snow cocktail! :) 👍🏻
I am so making this cocktail (the egg white version). I'm calling it "Snow After Dark".
How about “Russian Winter”?
Great name! Or, "The Siberian".
I was going to say "Russian Snow"
I was thinking "Siberian Blizzard"
I was thinking the exact same thing
I came here to write that only to find you had beaten me to it.
I'd be tempted to try it with a little bit of mint as well. Sounds lovely.
"Snowy Day" sounds like a proper cocktail name!
Or...Snow Day! School closed!
@@kirkvoelcker5272 Or Snow Ball!
@@travisadams4470 that has other connotations to it that aren't super pleasant...
Thanks so much for filming the experimentation, Awesome stuff!
“It’s just a smack in the face that’s really good.” Laughing out loud!
When he poured that snow cocktail, I thought to myself, 1) looks like snow, and 2) perfect for Christmas.
I don’t even drink and I get such a kick out of these.😊
"It's just a smack in the face that's really good."

The creation process at it's greatest! We witnessed history (until an drinks book pops up with it already listed)
Sometimes those simple, just good cocktails are what you need. Maybe once every six months I’ll be in the mood for an Orange Whip and that’s basically just a boozed up orange Julius.
Just got home from work and saw this video, now have to go back out and buy crème de Cacao 😊 thanks for the fun, one of my favorite so far. 👍
The looks, interaction, and responses from you two are warm, hilarious, and magical. I must try this...my bride is intrigued as well. I'm calling it "The Snowball" ❄️
I was expecting the gin and vodka to fight each other! I'm down in the middle of the US and I'm hoping to find a rye vodka to discover that spicy note!! Thanks for your great content!
Ha--fighting! I detest gin and so my reaction was "WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT TO A NICE VODKA?!" 😆
This episode is just great. I love it
Love it when glen freestyles
Great video gang, you both always make them so much fun to watch. And can’t wait to try the new cocktail.
There's so many variations that you could do with this drink! Cut the creme de cocao in half & add a half of peppermint schnapps... etc
I love it when you decide you want to modify a recipe and you just go ahead and do it as part of the video
That was a lovely video, Glen! I was thinking that it would be a really bad combination and I was also surprised that you both liked it. Plus, the improvisation on the egg white and having it succeed... priceless!
Russian Snow cocktail. Looks fantastic.
I don’t drink, but I love watching, especially when you have an idea and go for it.
The beginnings of the tumbleweed?1 shot vodka, 1shot creme de cocoa, 1 shot cream; mix in a blender. Best milk shake ever!
Julie’s shirt is THE BEST!
Simplicity at its finest, you can have 10 ingredients and have a mess of a drink or you can add 3 or 4 and get something great.
😂"How many Julie cocktails do we need?!"
"Its just a slap in the face that is really good!" Lol!
The name... Since the cocktail is named Russian, why not Russian Snow, or just Sibir! That place never truly unfrost!
A Tempus Fugit creme de cacao would send this over the top! Sounds delicious with the egg white
Я не большой любитель коктейлей, но хочу отметить, что у этого мужика шикарная кухня.
That is his studio out back.
You can see how torn Glen is, low expectations but blown away by it being good and simple!!
I'm trying for dessert tonight! Sounds lovely
I love your reactions!
Hello Glen, love your channel. As a hobby mixologist I see your new cocktail “The Snow Coctail” with 2 more ingredients: in shaker glass add gin, vodka, creme de cacao and add one single drop of aromatic bitters, drop in a spring from a Hawthorne strainers and dry shake, add 1 oz heavy cream and ice and shake well, double strain into a cocktail glass
I LOVE how you added the egg white on the fly!!! So awesome!
I’m gonna try this tonight with a Crème De Cacao from Tempus Fugit Spirits! Thanks for the great video!!!
Instead of calling it SNOW call it SNOW BALL! that way Glen can get his smack in the face he was expecting. Either way, great cocktail! Cheers!
The first time I had an old fashioned Martini with both vodka and gin, it seemed to me that they sort of canceled each other out and were easier to drink mixed together than either would be straight. Maybe that contributes to the easy drink-ability of "The Russian".
I love Glen's reactions. Definitely going to try this.
Really wanna trying this one! With and without the eggwhite!
“A smack in the face”! What a hoot!
You two are having some FUN tonight!! haha
Love the mid video improvisation! Yeah egg white!
That was a fun episode guys! Great to see you both have fun in the kitchen.
Looks amazing!
This made me smile.
That looks like a perfect chocolatey Easter drink! Adult chocolate! Will definitely make some next weekend for our Easter family get together.
Surely it should be the 'Easter Bunny'
White, fluffy and tastes like chocolate.
Will be trying this weekend!
I’ll have to try this drink out for myself. Great content as usual
Always appreciative for the content in 4K. I hear it can really take a lot of time to get it onto TH-cam!
I love everything about this. I would pay to see this live.
Russian Snow. Great video today, as always.
Wonderful :-D
I love y’all!!
A grating of Nutmeg over the top, or maybe add .5 oz of All Spice Dram to the shake. Top with a dash or two of Smoke Orange Bitters. Cheers!
We started drinking these regularly after your prior “Russian Cocktail” vid Glen!
I'm definately going to try this one!
"Snow after dark" was a great suggestion by another commenter!
The “Wintry Day”! 😊
You two make me laugh. Great video. Makes me want to try this drink, and I don't drink. Thanks.
Wish I could have egg's sounds Amazing 🤩
How about the Faberge Egg Cocktail?
Sounds pretty expensive to me.
@@peterdoe2617 have you seen the prices of eggs lately?!! 😁
@@travisadams4470 Fabergè or the ones in my local supermarket? 🙂
Call it a snowy Russian
Ok, The Snow Cocktail. Yup. I can agree with that.
I instantly came up with the Uniform Victor Mike Foxtrot.
Everything seemed to work together well so it was uniform. Hence the reason for the form of my choice of name. 😉😁
For the cocktail with the egg, may I suggest for a name the Rabid Russian? 😂
That's so close to a martini I have to try it. Cheers!
I'm making these on Christmas 🎄
I don't even drink much and I have to watch. Russian Snow.
I made the Snow cocktail tonight for the family. We all really loved it. I did make two small alterations to the spec. I added a couple of drops of saline into the tin and a couple of drops (not dashes) of chocolate bitters to the foam. Thank you so much! Can I suggest the "The First Snowfall Cocktail?"
One question I have is how many cocktail videos had you made that day prior to making this one?
I wondered that myself! Must have been a happy day!
I thought you did this recipe a while ago saying it was a Chocolate Martini but with a different name. I've been drinking that since I saw it. I've given the 1/3, 1/3, 1/3 vodka, gin, Creme de Cocoa recipe to many friends. The egg white addition looks amazing!!!
I watch these and really don’t drink!
This sounds delicious! Because of the gin, couldn't it righfully be called a Chocolate Martini? Tongue in cheek of course.
You can call the new drink The Inditement! 😏
this would definitely get me wasted so i approve
Alchemy in (nearly) real time! I will have to go but some creme de cacao
How about calling it Santa's Boxing Day Cocktail...
When it's that good.. along with the egg white, break out more different vodkas.. maybe one from potatoes? oooo chocolate snow
Late March Snow!
If I drank cocktails,that would be the type I would drink-straight simple no fussy fruits/cordials👍from BIGMICK IN THE UK 🇬🇧 without snow
The Russian winter. 🍸❄️
I wonder how Tanqueray gin would work it has a very distinct taste🤔
Rye vodka sounds great
Wife and I were not a fan of this one (either version), but great video as always!
I am making Snow when I get home. 🎉
The snowy Russian
I would have gone with the "White Chocolate Russian."
I believe you've made a "Russian Flip" 🙂
It's called the chocolate Glen.
Does Maraschino Cherry and syrup make it a Queen's Anne Cordial (chocolate covered cherry)?
Now what happens if you add a little spice/heat to contrast and amplify the chocolate. Be that something like cinnamon or hot pepper.
A 1/4 oz of Fireball might serve...maybe that's just me but I agree with your idea. Cheers! :D
How many Julie cocktails do we need? N + 1, where N is the existing number of Julie cocktails :D
It's good and I'm disappointed. 😂
I AM DEFINATELY MAKING THE SNOW VERSION SOON.
Try it with a typical vodka and Dillion's Unfiltered Gin
Or maybe in homage to the original, the "Russian Winter"
I need to taste this to understand it. Aside from the kick I'm not sure how the gin and vodka together with a liqueur would taste.
Reminiscent of a university days shots night visiting the Bears Den in the Deep
