How about a 100 Year Old Cigar or a Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique?! 😜 Just kidding 😎 But how about a Singapur or Strait Sling or a Last Word (or one of the trillion Twist of it)...
A year ago I'd probably say "What do you mean make this creamy cocktail clear?!". One year of making these episodes and my reactions are pretty much just "Yep, cool." 😂 Amazing work, man!
So what you’re telling me is I can’t make this in 60 seconds? 😅 This is a fantastic “clarification” of the Ramos Gin Fizz. Never thought of using condensed milk in a wash. Great idea! 🥃
I haven't tried this recipe yet, but for the part of the aquarium air pump: It's less effective, but using a cheap milk foamer (or even a normal stick blender, held at an angle) also works well for generating foams with soy lecithin. (Just as a hint for people who want to recreate this but don't have a pump laying around ^^)
In the UK Condensed Milk is definitely sweetened and is like a thick milk syrup. I think the milk you use is either what we call Evaporated Milk, which is sold canned. Or Sterilised/Homogenised, or UHT MILK, where the milk is heated at a higher temperature than pasteurised, and the process homogenises the fat into the milk. Which milk was it?
👏👏bravo Kevin! This is awesome. The foam is genius! I once tried to use Xanthan to add weight to a clarified cocktail, but it always ends up making the drink cloudy. Great video as always!
It's a great additive but hard to get the right amount for the best results since it's not needed a lot of it. I spend a lot of time in the kitchen making this one, especially because of the milk. A drop of it makes the bottom part cloudy. Thank you so much!
Interested to see what other drink related things you can do with the air pump. This is a neat effect and the pump isn't all that expensive, but it'd be nice if it were not a one-trick pony.
@@KevinKos thank you I love orange blossom water and always want recipes for it! Also so gracious of you to reply to every comment cant wait till you hit a mil!
You are right! Especially in this one where I added more milk than usual. It wouldn’t give me a clear result but it would add some nice foam. Thank you!
But to force the air inside the foam, can you use one of those smokers that are used for cocktails (obviously without the embers to avoid creating smoke)?
The Aquarium air pump is great because it has that stone at the end of the tube which forces a lot of small air bubbles into the mixture. I guess that smoker would work ok but it will create different bubbles. It's worth trying.
So, i watched this vid about 4 hours ago now on my Phone. 4 hours later, I'm still laughing at the fish tank pump! Well played team KK, well played! You lot are flippin' BONKERS
Yes you can. Blend it well together with all the other ingredients and then clarify it with milk. I would be glad to hear your results. If you'll need more help feel free to join our Discord server: discord.gg/hbFb6YUwYt
Anothet great video from you Sir, all of my thumbs up. I just curious, is there any usage of the sediment of milk curdle after clarification process? While in the fat washed cocktail in your channel, you give recommendation for the "left over" of sediment to use in pop corn. Love it, Sir. Btw, thanks for the video and always sharing your knowledge and skill. Keep it up and cheeers from Bali.
Of course. You can try and make some Ice cream with the sediment. It already has a lot of fats so blend it with some fruit that goes well with this cocktail or mix it with yogurt or cream. Thank you for this great question and your support! Cheers!
Oh man, my least favourite part of the Ramos is the non-frothy milky part at the bottom. Can't stand it. But this... this I can get behind. Will have to try it.
Hmm, if you're putting so much work into it, why not just carbonate the whole cocktail in a sodastream, since you went thru all the work of clarifying it?
Hey Kevin, I really love your videos and I totally understand that English is not your first language, which makes your efforts even more amazing, but was wondering if you could consider presenting in a normal conversational tone instead of your current 'formal' presentation manner so that it's easier to follow what you are saying. Often times, your pauses are at awkward parts of the sentence and it's a bit hard to follow your instructions! Just my two cents and please keep up the amazing work :)
@Benjamin Lim I really appreciate your comment! I'll keep working on my English, but if you ever have any questions regarding the cocktail or their preparation you can always ask here in the comments, reach out on my instagram profile (@kevin_kos) or join the newly created Discord server - discord.gg/6WBuaU6T (again, if this link expires, hit me up on ig). Cheers!
@@KevinKos Don't get me wrong, your English is fine! It's just the presentation style, and my honest opinion would be to speak as naturally as you would, just like you would speak to us at your bar! :)
@@benjaminlim3758 I understand and I am happy with all the ideas for the improvements. Our style of filming is a bit different and speaking naturally may cause breaking the flow of the episode. I would love to be a fluent speaker but that's the area I have to improve the most. I will try my best to make the best presentation in our episodes as I can. Thank you again for your feedback!
I’ve now made clarified versions of the White Russian, Pornstar Martini & the Ramos. Which cocktail would you like to see me clarify next?
Colourless Negroni!! 🤘
How about a 100 Year Old Cigar or a Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique?!
😜 Just kidding 😎
But how about a Singapur or Strait Sling or a Last Word (or one of the trillion Twist of it)...
jungle bird and pinacolada are great choices. I also clarified mai-tai and man that was good
@@rohanmatmary2177
Gin - White Vermouth - Suze Liquor 😉
@@CoffeinCowboy nah!! I am sure Kevin can do better than Suze 😁
A year ago I'd probably say "What do you mean make this creamy cocktail clear?!". One year of making these episodes and my reactions are pretty much just "Yep, cool." 😂 Amazing work, man!
Haha, so I have to try harder for the reactions I sometimes got a year ago? Ok, I am rolling up my sleeves 😉
So what you’re telling me is I can’t make this in 60 seconds? 😅
This is a fantastic “clarification” of the Ramos Gin Fizz. Never thought of using condensed milk in a wash. Great idea! 🥃
You can do it Vino! True, you can do a lot of different varieties of milk clarifications. Thank you!
Thanks for the clarification!
Any time 😁
Ba dum tiss
LOL..I see what you did there!
What a genius way to to bubbles into the foam!! I might have to so a side by side.
Thanks! If you will do it let me know the results 😉

You are right, you can get a big foam with the foamer or a stick blender. Thank you!

It's a great tool for a foam airy like this one and like you said isn't all that expensive. Cheers!
Taking a legendary cocktail and elevating it even further as usual Kevin! Looks almost like champagne, so elegant!
Thank you! Cheers!
Sick! I wanted to buy an aquarium pump to try making a DIY Clinebell ice machine... I now have a second good reason to buy it! Cheers!
DIY Clinebell machine would be great to have at home. I am glad that I gave you a second reason to buy this pump 😄 Cheers!
this is an interesting version of the Ramos fin Fizz, Clear and tasty .
Thank you David! Cheers!
Agreed! Love seeing Kevin's riffs!
Could you swap out the air pump for a whip cream siphon or ic whipper?
You can, but in this case add less amount of foam on top of the cocktail, since siphon foam isn't airy as the one I did.
@@KevinKos thank you I love orange blossom water and always want recipes for it! Also so gracious of you to reply to every comment cant wait till you hit a mil!
Love the use of foam and I've made a ny whiskey sour clarified so after sunday's ramos I will make an attempt at this
I would be happy to hear your results! Cheers!
thanks for the great video(as always), I just wanted to add if you shake the clarified part it will foam perfectly too.
You are right! Especially in this one where I added more milk than usual. It wouldn’t give me a clear result but it would add some nice foam. Thank you!

Wow... that looks like a cocktail from another planet. Great presentation and great mustache 👨🏽🦰
😊 thank you Dr. Cocktail!
What an awesome video! Thanks for providing!
Thanks for making it great!

haha, it's so nice to hear that we made you laugh! I am thinking about what else could I use for preparations 🧐
It's so creative!! I have to try this!!!
Thank you! Have fun making it!
Adding it to the list of Summer projects myself
It was only a matter of time before aquarium tools made their way into cocktails.... now to drink like a fish! 😂
Well done!!
Haha true! We'll see what other tools I will use for making cocktails 😆
I'm getting serious Macguyver vibes here!
I saw your post on r/cocktails and then got this recommended to me wow
Welcome to the channel!
Awesome !
Thanks!
Hi, whats the background music? big fan here, thanks!
It's 'My Only Love' by Duffmusiq. Thank you!
Hi there! I have a question) can i clarify pina colada with milk, but using coconut puree, not coconut water or coconut syrup?
Yes you can. Blend it well together with all the other ingredients and then clarify it with milk. I would be glad to hear your results. If you'll need more help feel free to join our Discord server: discord.gg/hbFb6YUwYt

@@KevinKos noted it, Sir Kevin Kos. I highly appreciated for the response.
Thank U
Just wonder if using culinary siphon to create the foam makes sense in this case to replicate that smoothie like foam. 🤔
Siphon would give you different results. You will get thicker foam which I didn’t want here. If you will use siphon then add less foam than I did.
@@KevinKos Thanks for sharing!
@@playa524 You are welcome!
can you clarify an Espresso Martini?
Thanks for the idea!
Oh man, my least favourite part of the Ramos is the non-frothy milky part at the bottom. Can't stand it. But this... this I can get behind. Will have to try it.
The best part of the Ramos is of course the foam that gives you the mustache. Great! Let me know how it went!
I'll have to admit, the Ramos is my LEAST favorite cocktail to make! But a clarified version is the kind of alchemy that makes me happy!
It was a really fun experiment!
Statistically I have spent almost 3 years lying awake while i was able to make 1.576.800 of this Heavenly drinks.
That's Cocktail Engineering type of statistics right there. 👌
Hmm, if you're putting so much work into it, why not just carbonate the whole cocktail in a sodastream, since you went thru all the work of clarifying it?
Great point, but because of the whey in a cocktail it's hard to carbonate a milk-washed cocktail. It will turn out foamy.
Man you are crazy, that looks awesome. But Crazy.
Haha thanks! 😆
I don't know how he comes up with this stuff, but I'm here for it!
That's incredible! I think my wife would divorce me if I started doing them.
Weird, they got me engaged! 😜 Thank you!

This particular one looks horrible clarified
Sorry to hear that. I prefer classic over this one, but I like to experiment with cocktails. Thank you!
There is a lot off f(u/i)zz for one cocktail.
