I spent 3 hours making the damn cucumber spheres needed for their gin and tonic. I love reading the needed materials in their book because it's usually a small paragraph including a sous vide
@@MrWnw Sous vide translates to under vacuum. This means you typically need a vacuum sealer then either chill or heat the contents of a vacuum sealed bag in precisely controlled water or other liquid bath. Typically it used for cooking but you could use it to reduce something below the freezing point if you use something other than water for the bath. Its not too difficult to precision heat but precision cooling is a whole other level. So unless the drink is served hot or warm it would require you to also get some sort of compression device similar to the back of a fridge but is accurate enough to cool the liquid to a specific degree or generally 1/2 to 1/10th a degree. For a cocktail this is absurd for a steak or lobster it's an ideal cooking method but it turns 15 minutes on the grill into a 4 hour process for best results.
This is how I'm going to apply my biochemistry degree when I get it. Co-worker: oh you making alginate suspension, what's in it? Yeast? Me: ...Sure. Let's go with that.
Yeah im about to graduate with my molecular biology degree, I'll be doing this at my grad party. For myself of course, everyone else can make their own cocktails😜
What's in it? Yeast? No, it's a solution created from a number of compounds that were mixed and interacted with yeast, and is being put in this alginate suspension for recreational purposes.
Keep it simple, stupid It’s no different than a nice steak dinner. Steak, potatoes, maybe a vegetable, salad, or a dinner roll. You don’t need to even try to make fancy sauces or a fancy presentation. Sometimes simple is better.
I made this for a friend's birthday present! I used a ping pong ball as a layering device. Everybody was mesmerized, thank you for showing these amazing cocktails!!
Some dear cocktail loving friends of mine were moving away, to the other side of the continent, so I had to make something special for them. It took a while to assemble the equipment and specialized ingredients. It also took two tries to get the “spherification” process down. But in the end, it was TOTALLY WORTH IT!!
Yeah too specific on the measurements. I only understand 2 parts this 1 part that, but if I made that drink, I might as well serve it at a wedding catering service or whatever. Lots of money there.
dude this is a great video, i really miss the advance technique type videos from the earlier days on the channel so this was really fun to see you messing with molecular gastronomy tricks and stuff! reminded me of the smoke ball cocktail
Strong work! As much as I love a classic cocktail according to tradition, I also really enjoy avant-garde Interpretations using modern techniques such as molecular gastronomy.
I'm only 17 at the moment, but your channel, especially videos like this, make me VERY excited to turn 18 so I can buy some equipment and some booze and make my own cocktails... thanks for your work!
Awesome video! I’ve been to The Aviary twice and received the book as a gift. The book itself is gorgeous but I know full well I would most likely never make any of the drinks. I’m glad you did this video and I would love to see you do more from the book.
Like....Ain’t nobody got time for that!! No time for the cooling baths and, in retrospect bull-snaggled alginate gels, double cold bath membrane spheres. Mind blown
The Jungle Bird is the calling card of the true cocktail cognoscenti, here's hoping it doesn't end up like the Aviation. Can't wait to try your technique, I still have trouble with layered drinks.
Something tells me i wont be able to go to my local apple bs and order this drink..😂🤣.. but i did just add something to my bucket list watching this video...thanks.
Awesome recipe! Does anyone who has tried this/anything similar know how long you can keep the Gosling spheres in a fridge? It would be something nice to keep on hand for guests
I had a more basic form of this drink when I go out too Barcade's around my city. Mostly involved mixing Goslings dark rum, Campari, pineapple juice and lime juice. Add all these ingredients together in a small glass with or without a cubed ice and enjoy.
This is a next-level cocktail. Out of curiosity is there a reason why you created sugar spheres infused with the rum rather than just created rum spheres? I’ll definitely give this a try!
Two recreateds I would love to see is a Singapore sling with mescal on the side from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, and scotch and kahlua from That 70's Show. I doubt that's gonna taste like Dr. Pepper like they said lol
I was wondering, why not adding the rum to the mixture that goes inside the bubbles? Great presentation and execution tho, as always thanks for your videos.
@@CrabRangoon245 Oh I see, I've never really tried with an alcoholic mixture, ive tried it only with green olive juice, to drop one sphere in a martini and it was fun...
An interesting take on the recipe. Does this new interpretation actually call for Gosling's? The original Jungle Bird recipe calls for blackstrap molasses rum if I'm not mistaken.
I would honestly just prefer to drink some hard stuff to get an effective buzz. But I like to think a fancy drink is a good acompanyment to the mood it instills. And I'll be damned if I don't like watching you make them. Your a master of your craft.
Great video Nick, however wouldn't it be best to put your sippy cilinder before the layering, as when you do it after there's a chance you can break the layering? I'd like to know your opinion
Funny enough I just tried this over the weekend, but pouring down a bar spoon in place of the fancy layering device - did not work. In the end, I had better results just making a normal jungle bird and floating the spheres on top (which were a finnicky process but turned out pretty great).

would a trained lab technician be qualified to make this?

'it's usually a small paragraph including a sous vide' thus its difficult/ easy to remake? Kinda didnt get it :D
It’s because it’s kinda ridiculous for a cocktail lol

Wait is the cocktail chemistry owner's pronouns they/them specifically?
@@reversed2489 "They" are the Aviary.
Since the beginning I thought: "How you gonna drink this?"
Solution: After ours of preparation, simply stir it together..
Customers always eat (drink?) with their eyes first

So, if I make this, I can call it studying?
dude same, some people can see this stuff as pretty complex but man with a biochemistry degree this seems kind of fun.
What's in it? Yeast?
No, it's a solution created from a number of compounds that were mixed and interacted with yeast, and is being put in this alginate suspension for recreational purposes.

The aviary book has a list of non alcoholic drinks that require a similar level of prep. I highly recommend it if you are not willing to wait.

Never knew it was made in KL.

This is some shokugeki no soma level stuff. Great work as always!!! Keep it up.
As a german i appreciate the appearance of our flag in a cocktail ^^
edible rum orbee's? amazing
You could. Make rum bubble tea
Love your channel it's very entertaining and is easily followed I would also love to see more coffee drinks
Thanks Fish people!
“This juice is worth the squeeze” my new life motto
Oh buddy, Allow me to introduce you to "The Girl Next Door"
Considering what most baristas are capable of, hats off to this guy.

Can’t wait to visit the aviary when things open up!

It's beautiful and those rum bubbles must be awesome.
This is by far one of my fav channels, its always great to see a new post
Thank you sir!
See I thought this was an "It's always sunny" theme cocktail because Sweet Dee looks like some sort of jungle bird right?
needs more crow

If you're into Sunny in Philadelphia you should check out Rum Ham that Shana Race came and made for us on our channel.
@@TheEducatedBarfly I'm already a subscriber Leandro! Been loving your stuff for a while now.
This is my fist time watching your video. I will watch more because I own most of those books behind you.
Yessssss!!!! We’re starting a little mini series in the Aviary cocktails as well!! :)
Ambitious! I plan to slowly make my way through the book
Cocktail Chemistry - this is going to be a fun one! I’m so glad you’re doing this too!!
That thing is a work of art
Wow! What a so long time process of making and tools. Fantastic!

Wow you are really taking cocktails to the next level here!
This cocktail is stupidly complicated... love it
Definitely gonna buy that book
Please make more cocktails form this book. Thanks you.
I've been making cocktails from their book too. All of them have been a lot of work but really cool to impress your friends!
Spends 20 minutes separating the shots just to mix it all together.. fack
If it had just been 20 minutes XD
Brilliant video. Absolutely brilliant.
What's that you say, just watching that makes me certified? I'm gonna go stick that on my resume
Art and science, beautiful drink.
I would love to try this drink!
My version involves crushing a tropical bath bomb and snorting a line of it from the beak of a toucan. But I've always been a perfectionist..
Ayyy just woke up, great vid to see on my feed first thing in the morning👌✨
Something tells me i wont be able to go to my local apple bs and order this drink..😂🤣.. but i did just add something to my bucket list watching this video...thanks.
Lost me at step one haha. But this is one of the most aesthetically pleasing drinks to date. Hope the new year has been treating you well so far!
I have to stop by that place now

You know the cocktail is good when he straight up gives a glance to god the moment he starts sipping it
Find you a man who loves you like the Cocktail Chemist loves putting stuff in orbs.
Te perfect cocktail after a hard day at the office.

that book is nuts
I got to say. You are a beeping funny dude! Please keep em coming.
Salvador Dali of cocktail ! Respect Sir
Ugh that looks delicious, cant wait to get the stuff to make it myself.
All of this effort for someone to take a sip and say 'Oooo, yeah, cool'...

This is an analytical chemist’s dream job
great video! do you know ho long i can keep the gossilngs spheres for? like can i make a batch that i can keep on hand for another time? thanks.
Looks very.... German!
Hi, Germany :)

there’s something quite therapeutic about your videos. 🍸
The rum bubbles remind me of a topping from rare boba places where you can order with bubbles with liquid inside of it.
Wow, that’s amazing!

I have tried that actually but it affects the way the spheres are formed and they will have a much weaker membrane so it's harder to make a batch
@@CrabRangoon245 Oh I see, I've never really tried with an alcoholic mixture, ive tried it only with green olive juice, to drop one sphere in a martini and it was fun...
@@umbertocevenini that is actually a great idea! I'll have to try that soon.
a friend made this for my 18th birthday (legal drinking age here is 18) and I loved it, only problem is everything else is underwhelming
How far in advance can you make the rum orbs? Will the membrane disolve if you keep it in the rum too long?
love the dark rum use. try a Corn N Oil next time, Keith Richards would be proud.
An interesting take on the recipe. Does this new interpretation actually call for Gosling's? The original Jungle Bird recipe calls for blackstrap molasses rum if I'm not mistaken.

Man, this really reminds me of of the enzyme immobilisation experiment from school
How long can those spheres be stored in the rum? Can I make this in a batch and use from it daily?
Great video Nick, however wouldn't it be best to put your sippy cilinder before the layering, as when you do it after there's a chance you can break the layering? I'd like to know your opinion
Dude! You should've worn a lab gown. Would've been great with the chemistry bit of the cocktail
I love that layering tool. Too bad it wouldn't fit a shot glass. I have no luck when making B52s.
I'll have a Guinness when you're ready there pat
Could you share a few cocktail with jagermeister?

For some reason. Drink is incredibly popular with the German football (soccer)fans

Love your channel! Have you ever considered branching out into making your own alcohol?
Nick, do you sell those bubbles on your website?
