Hey, I made a cocktail and I want to share it with you. But only if you make a video about it. Maybe a series where you pick 3 cocktail recipes from your viewers and then at the end you pick your favorite
I've just made it, and it's really good! Think next time I make it I will dial the citrus back just a touch (maybe 3/4oz) to allow for the pistachio flavour to be a little more prominent. Going to use the left over coffee infused rum for an old fashioned tonight!
Just tried it! Man, it's amazing... the pistachio Mai Tai with the clarification process gains an incredible smoothness... Thanks for sharing such a wonderful recipe!
This is amazing. I've been a little away from TH-cam recently since my baby girl was born in January, but I've made the Pistachio orgeat and used it in some mocktails. Now this is where it truly shines. Tiki cocktails are also perfect for clarification. They're usually a little too much on the strong side for me, but tone down very well when clarified.
Hot tip - in my experience the nut bag takes longer and sometimes needed multiple rounds of filtration. I switched to restaurant-size paper coffee filters. They’re great!
I personally either use a double layer of paper towels (not very eco friendly in the long run) the alternative to "hang" the nut milk bag ist to use a cone strainer with the bag in it.
Im loving those combinations of ingredients and i love mai tais. Also been "craving" clarified cocktails these days so i think it is time to get some whole milk! cheers :)
So, I have a coffee-infused rum that I made a while back but I followed a sous vide cold brew recipe. Using rum instead of water. If I took six oz of this infusion and added the simple and vanilla paste, do you think it would be too coffee-forward?
Hi, could you do a version of clarified mango lassi? Ive been trying to do this but it has been really tricky and failed many times. Would appreciate if you did a video on it. Great fan of your work
Here's the thing... I have looked it up youtube and google... there is limited info on what to do with the curds left behind. I do this with angel envy whiskey sours and I KNOW the curds can be used.. what do we do?
Damn, you just love to clarify everything. BTW it could be a great bar concept, to have everything clarified in your menu even the name Clarified sounds nice for a bar
I just made it, waited for a year (we only have lime in season) It tastes very similar to a pineapple. with no notes from the jamaican rum or the pistachio (was really hoping for it) Can it work without the milk clarification?
I'd try to do the coffee rum by doing some very strong coffee and add it the rum. I've done coffee infusions and tbh, they were much worse than adding an espresso to the liqueur.
Great video! How shelf-stable is the clarified cocktail? How long will it last? I need to try this, especially because I live in San Francisco and can go try the original to compare! :) (We apparently also have the same Hario coffee dripper; good taste there!)
Great video as always ! What about milk-washing the orgeat on its own (or even the "pistachio milk") ? I'm sure the rest of the cocktail would be clarified faster. As an exemple, when I make a milk punch, I (agar-)clarify some fresh pineapple juice before milk-washing the rest of the cocktail, it is faster this way
Hey Thomas, I honestly don't see any benefit at doing Agar clarification before. In terms of taste chances are it will strip down some flavours before which I don't see any interest and you say it's faster that way but the agar clarification takes a looong time so I doubt it. So I wouldn't recommend it.
Thanks a lot for your answer ! I just don't like when a clarification takes a few day. Maybe milk-clarifying separately the syrup (of the pistachio milk) and the rest of the cocktail? The yield of the syrup will be low, but the cocktail would be clarified faster
Ça à l'air super ! Je me demandais aussi, toutes les recette de milk clarification que j'ai vu se font avec des alcools type rhum, whisky, brandy, mais est-ce que c'est aussi possible de le faire avec des alcools blancs comme le gin, la tequila ou la vodka ?
Certainement! Comme je le dis toujours, la clarification est un "effet secondaire". L'idée est d'adoucir le cocktail avec la protéine du lait que se sépare du gras et qui change le goût du cocktail. Alors si ça convient à la recette, c'est parfait, peu importe la couleur du cocktail ou du spiritueux.
Hey again. Finished making this tonight and it's so, so, SO good. I made it with El Dorado 8yr (couldn't find the Jamaican one but it was a 6yr). Your clarified mojito is what I'll make next. What's your favorite clarified drink you've made to date?
@@TrufflesOnTheRocks Morning. Made the mojito last night using Kos's specs and your method of clarification, waaaay to sour for my palette. The lime overpowered everything, and I didn't get of the smoothness with the milk that I did with your Mai. Going to try your specs tonight. Ouu maaan ... that sounds sublime ... can't wait to get that bell. Is there an eta for that one?? Lol
Oh that sounds great. I have to try that! I wonder if you could get away with just letting the orgeat curdle without adding any additional milk, since you have nut milk in it already. Or is that too little volume and would result in a cloudy drink?
I think clarification often gets confused with milk washing. The goal with milk washing is first to change the flavor profile of the cocktail and the clarification is kind of a side effect. That said, I wouldn’t recommend trying this if you want to replicate the recipe. Cheers
@@TrufflesOnTheRocks Thank you for clarifying, I did more or less think of those two techniques as interchangable with the goal being the clarification. Looking forward to trying it
That's 2 different methods with 2 different results. Milk washing is mostly about the taste, not so much about the clarification itself. That's more like a side effect of the method.
Happy Friday my friends! I hope you enjoyed this week’s first cocktail in two episodes. Cheera

What a classy-looking cocktail! Simple and elegant.
Exactly what caught my attention at first.
so good that you are posting again !!

Solid mate! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Love the Coffee OF idea. Cheers!
Great video. Love the quick infusion! I try and recreate cocktails from other bars on Instagram all the time.
Just tried it! Man, it's amazing... the pistachio Mai Tai with the clarification process gains an incredible smoothness... Thanks for sharing such a wonderful recipe!
Stoked you liked it! Cheers!
pure artistry, c'est magnifique!
Merci! Santé
The opening of this video is every discussion the wife and I have at a bar when we go out and we find a drink we like :)
Haha! I’m glad to hear I’m not alone 😉
Haha! I’m glad to hear I’m not alone 😉
Looks like I have a few items to purchase for this one. This sounds amazing! Cheers!
Hope you’ll have fun making it and trying it. Cheers

Congratulations on the new born and cheers to your return around and clarified tiki cocktails ;)
omg I used to live right by True Laurel. I've had this drink dozens of times. SO good! Excellent work on the recreation!
Thanks Patrick! Please try the recipe and tell me how they compare :)

Oh my god how amazing
I loved it, Jean P, very nice recipe, I might have to try it at home soon, I love creations like this, very minimalistic, thumps up!!
Thanks Luis! Cheers
I have to said it. Its one of the best recipe i tried. Thanks a lot 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I’m so happy to hear this! Cheers
This looks incredible!!
It looks amazing, I need to try it after my vacation. Thanks for the recipe
Thanks Matthias! Enjoy the vacations ;) Cheers!
Ok!!! It's time!! Can I get one right now please?? Everything about this cocktail looks amazing. 🖤
🤩 merci 🙏
Did try your clarified mai tai... pretty good 😀
Awesome! Cheers!
I absolutely have to try this!
Looking forward seeing yours
Which ice stamp do you use? Have been tempted to order one.
Im loving those combinations of ingredients and i love mai tais. Also been "craving" clarified cocktails these days so i think it is time to get some whole milk! cheers :)
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. Cheers
So, I have a coffee-infused rum that I made a while back but I followed a sous vide cold brew recipe. Using rum instead of water. If I took six oz of this infusion and added the simple and vanilla paste, do you think it would be too coffee-forward?
General question:
Does it help for the filtration if the liquid is cold or warm?
Wow, I’m going make it right now
Cheers :)
Hi, could you do a version of clarified mango lassi? Ive been trying to do this but it has been really tricky and failed many times. Would appreciate if you did a video on it. Great fan of your work
I'll look at that recipe when I have a sec. Cheers!
at 7:06 i have a question what is the ingredient ?
What kind of ice stamp is it that can punch a whole in a cube of ice?
It's the one I got from Atmos
Here's the thing... I have looked it up youtube and google... there is limited info on what to do with the curds left behind. I do this with angel envy whiskey sours and I KNOW the curds can be used.. what do we do?
Damn, you just love to clarify everything.
BTW it could be a great bar concept, to have everything clarified in your menu
even the name Clarified sounds nice for a bar
LOL I do have a thing for those. Cheers!
for the infused rum - do I just grind my fav coffee beans?
also on my region I cant get lime all year, do you have a solution for that issue?
Jean-Felix! What’s the brand of that fancy glass?! It’s so cool!!
it's from Rogaska... beautiful crystal glassware
I just made it, waited for a year (we only have lime in season)
It tastes very similar to a pineapple. with no notes from the jamaican rum or the pistachio (was really hoping for it)
Can it work without the milk clarification?
If after clarifying and it is still a little cloudy, can you add the mixture to some more milk and clarify it again?
If it is still cloudy, you should pass it a second time through the curdles left in your filter.
Very nice, I will def try! Thoughts on replacing the Dry Curaçao with Cointreau?
It would work if that’s all you have but I prefer the body of the Curaçao. Cheers
I'd try to do the coffee rum by doing some very strong coffee and add it the rum. I've done coffee infusions and tbh, they were much worse than adding an espresso to the liqueur.
"All you need is the right filter and a lot of time"
*Laughs in centrifuge*
Great video! How shelf-stable is the clarified cocktail? How long will it last? I need to try this, especially because I live in San Francisco and can go try the original to compare! :) (We apparently also have the same Hario coffee dripper; good taste there!)
Hell yeah San Francisco
I used to live in SF on Polk & Sutter
Looks amazing! Can I ask where this particular glass is from?
Thanks! Yeah it’s a gorgeous glass from Rogaska
@@TrufflesOnTheRocks Thank you!🙏 They’re stunning
Great video as always ! What about milk-washing the orgeat on its own (or even the "pistachio milk") ? I'm sure the rest of the cocktail would be clarified faster.

Hey Thomas, I honestly don't see any benefit at doing Agar clarification before. In terms of taste chances are it will strip down some flavours before which I don't see any interest and you say it's faster that way but the agar clarification takes a looong time so I doubt it. So I wouldn't recommend it.
Thanks a lot for your answer ! I just don't like when a clarification takes a few day. Maybe milk-clarifying separately the syrup (of the pistachio milk) and the rest of the cocktail? The yield of the syrup will be low, but the cocktail would be clarified faster
How to calculate perfect measurement of milk to clarificate the drink? 🤔
My golden rule is about 1/4 of the total amount of cocktail you want to clarify.
Ça à l'air super ! Je me demandais aussi, toutes les recette de milk clarification que j'ai vu se font avec des alcools type rhum, whisky, brandy, mais est-ce que c'est aussi possible de le faire avec des alcools blancs comme le gin, la tequila ou la vodka ?

Alors si ça convient à la recette, c'est parfait, peu importe la couleur du cocktail ou du spiritueux.
@@TrufflesOnTheRocks Cool merci pour la réponse, ça me donne envie de faire des test
The shelf life is months if stored in the fridge? Or I can put in a spirit container on room temperature?
In fridge it becomes shelf stable. If you keep it outside the fridge, store it in a cool and dark place but it won't last as long
@@TrufflesOnTheRocks thanks for the tip. Cheers!
Impressionnant
Hey again. Finished making this tonight and it's so, so, SO good. I made it with El Dorado 8yr (couldn't find the Jamaican one but it was a 6yr). Your clarified mojito is what I'll make next. What's your favorite clarified drink you've made to date?
So happy to hear that. My favourite Milk punch has not made it to the channel yet. But it was coconut, vanilla, gin and mezcal. Super tasty
@@TrufflesOnTheRocks

@@TrufflesOnTheRocks please make this one soon!
How long do you leave the cocktail in the milk before filtering it?
You can start the filtering as soon as it's mixed.
Its kajupistacho orgit or syrup??
2:41 Dry aged rum?
One with no sugar added
Est-ce qu’il faut faire reposer le mélange lait-rhum avant de le filtrer ou on peut y aller direct?
Perso je le filtre de suite mais bcp attendent environ 30 minutes avant. Je ne vois pas l'intérêt
hello would bottega pistachio be a good replacement for your homemade orgeat?
Don't know what that is. Sorry I'm not helping
@Truffles On The Rocks no worries, gave it a try anyway, and tastes like it worked out... thank you
Hey bro. Can i ask where you got your ice stamp and glass?
It's from Atmos Icepress
@@TrufflesOnTheRocks thank you, the glass also?
@@mojamal213 oh sorry! Forgot that. The glass is from Rogaska crystal

@@TrufflesOnTheRocks Thank you for clarifying, I did more or less think of those two techniques as interchangable with the goal being the clarification. Looking forward to trying it
Now all you have to do is fly out here to San Francisco and compare!
One day I hope!
Looks amazing!! I'm going to try this but maybe with a dairy free alternative :) Thanks for sharing!!
Why using milk if you can use agar agar?
That's 2 different methods with 2 different results. Milk washing is mostly about the taste, not so much about the clarification itself. That's more like a side effect of the method.
hIi, how about spicy clarified cocktails
If that tastes half as good as it looks 🤤🤤🤤🤤
HAHA! I know!
I think this is a really interesting concept, though the idea of coffee in it seems weird.
Agree it may sound off putting but the same way a coffee margarita is exquisite, this worked really nicely too.
Salud 🍸
I gotta try this out now with my pistachio orgeat
Hope you'll like it! :) Cheers!
Seriously bro. Fuckin rock's
Thanks a lot !!!
