Scorpion Bowl | How to Drink

- On this episode of How to Drink, it is the final episode of our Tiki series so I decided to make a Scorpion Bowl. This shareable bowl version is the Trader Vic's version and it’s fantastic. It is filled with Rum, Gin, and Brandy and though those three together may sound bad, they are most certainly not! Thanks to the balancing nature of the syrups and juices we’re using here this drink manages to taste exotic and sweet. So grab some friends to share this masterpiece with and enjoy! Cheers!
Scorpion Bowl Ingredients:
- 2 oz or 60 ml Lime Juice
- 4 oz or 120 ml Orange Juice
- 1.5 oz or 45 ml Demerara Syrup
- 2 oz or 60 ml Orgeat
- 2 oz or 60 ml Brandy
- 4 oz or 120 ml London Dry Gin
- 4 oz or 120 ml Aged Rum
- Shake over Crushed Ice
- Garnish with Grated Nutmeg
- Share with Friends

Is it important to overfill your measuring cups in slow motion to get better flavor?
Without a doubt.
i think thats the whole "i've never worked in a bar" part
@@MAXREZNIK Actually I serve in a craft cocktail bar, and our bartenders are expected to measure to the meniscus (IE: full to the point the liquid curves slightly over the top of the jigger, and will def spill over if you so much as look at it wrong.) It's totally a professional thing.
@@pballen9745 I have seen some high end bars do this. Cheaper bars dont due to margins.
@@pballen9745 not as much as Greg though.
Wow, your production team is a lot bigger than I thought! Guess that explains the ludicrous quality of the channel haha
Alex Beck thanks!
What do that many people do? I've never made videos, so its hard to imagine what work there is for that many people.
Spencer Collins-Webb One Camera Guy, perhaps a Soundguy, but could be done by the Cameraguy, than you need a cutter, but that also could be done by the same Person. I think they have 2-4 people working there.
Edit: perhaps they have a social-media-guy
We have a camera operator and an assistant camera who pulls focus, a gaffer who rigs our lights at the camera-op/cinematographers direction. Sound has sadly thus far been direct into camera. Then there’s me, and there’s a pa who helps me have glasses and such ready for camera.
How To Drink Wow, im impressed. Keep it up! 👍
Soak cruton in lemon extract and use as candle during power outage, got it
"We're all gunna stick a straw in it and drink from it" Wow, what a wild time it was.... three years ago.
Steve's eye contact with the camera made me uncomfortable af
Mmmmm
I'm scared and slightly aroused. @@howtodrink
It's like he was staring into my soul.
It all made sense though after he was revealed to be the camera guy.
I felt like I needed to confess after that stare.... as if he was saying "I know what you did" or "you should be ashamed of yourself "
Poor steve.
It's cool. Legally changed it to Chris
He looked right into my very soul
Yo Steve that eye contact had me worried for a moment, felt like you could see me and I'm very naked and drunk at the moment so it was weird... until I started rubbing my nipples that made it OK.
Why is this channel not in the millions of subs yet?
GOOD question...
This is awesome.
IT IS NOW
Anyone else more then a little unnerved by how Chris/Steve just thousand yard stares into the camera?
His job is to stand behind the camera and do that directly into my eyes the entire time I'm working.
Damn you guys have a lot of staff for such a small channel. Hope you get noticed more!
Xio thank you! So do I!
Should do an episode to meet the crew / behind the scenes. I'd watch that 😬
-Chris- Steve's poignant stare burns straight into my soul.
Absolutely the best cocktail "how to" channel on youtube. The production is out of this world and the host is fun and charasmatic.
Greg, seriously, don't ever stop making these videos. You single-handedly reignited my love for cocktails. Honestly, I cry a little everytime I get a notification when you posted a new vid. Keep it up!
Lol I thought it was just you and a roommate or something who made the show!
Andrew Squitiro it started out it was just me and John, the first seven episodes were shot in my apartment by us plus a friend of mine who's not in this shot.
Thanks for introducing the crew! All of you guys are doing a hell of a job! Thank you so much for the quality content!
New to the series. Just want to say I LOVE those slow-mo close-ups. Adds lots of flair to the whole thing!
Greg! Seriously I love what you do, but I have to come out and admit something.... I can't make the drinks you make - cue the internal wail of my ever weary soul!!!
Truly I have wanted to, and you are an expert at describing what you make and how we can. I feel like I have everything I need except for the ingredients... and so HERE IS MY PLEA:
Can you please make a video explaining what is required for the essential home bar??!?
I feel like every time a new drink comes out I'm equally filled with rapture and sadness as I realize the incredible looking drinks I observe require yet another ingredient I don't have.
So this is my quandary, as a loyal aficionado of your channel I leave myself at your mercy!
What a brilliant way to introduce your crew! Looking forward to the next season!
So glad to see that this channel is growing! For all of the effort on the minor details, such as the theme of the set and the epic slow mo's, you deserve upwards of a million subscribers! Would love 3 videos a week!
I would love to see your take on the Long Island Iced Tea. It's a drink with a nasty reputation, and I think you could redeem it. =)
The Long Island Iced Tea truly is a shitmix that managed to realise it's dreams. I do love them though, provided that they're made properly. (Edit) I also love the Tokyo Iced Tea variant, it has green melon liquour instead of triple sec and lemonade instead of coke.
You should try the "Three Mile Island Iced Tea" - made with high-octane liquor and a splash of Mountain Dew instead of Coca-Cola.
Agreed.
Dude don't your dare shit on my Long Islands. I'm not a drinker, but I do love those.
@@rom65536 Sounds radioactive! 😂
I don't even like Cocktails very much, but the cinematography is just beautiful. Love the Videos!
Cinematographer John! Love your work!
To all the crew, this show is fantastic and you all should be proud of what gets put out each week. I had no idea there were so many of you.
Man I've made so many drinks and impressed so many people through this channel. From one lonely guy, THANKS!!!
He sure does spill a lot but it is really good looking on close up so I'm not complaining
T.Knotto I think he was already drunk when the video started... 😂
Great episode!! Just started watching a few weeks ago but already it's one of my favorites! Also Greg is super cute 😘
Awesome seeing the whole crew! Great video as always :D
Sir, this episode right here. This is the episode that convinced me to subscribe to your channel. The beautiful slowmo overspilling, the community drinking, the flame, and the intense stare of the camera guy.
Top notch my dude.
"We're trained professionals . . . You just lit your straw on fire!"
Nice.
Great episode and lovely crew you got wiht you. Carry on!
A buddy stopped by for a drink a month ago. I asked him if he wanted a cocktail. I walked into the room with a fully lit up scorpion bowl. Epic cocktailing ensued. Great video! Everyone should have a scorpion bowl in their liquor cabinet.
I love the flower necklace and sunglasses on the deer
*_steve is staring into my soul_*
That’s what he does
"We'll use plantation 3 star" - uses barbados 5 year
This comment helped me and the liquor store 😂
Great to see the crew ! Keep up the good work 🍻
love the behind the scenes sneak peak at the end! you've got a great team.
Thanks for showing the whole crew.
What a good looking crew! Man I thought it was just you and a buddy doing this show, now I know why it's so well done.
If you open up a bar...I'm gonna be there all day everyday. Might as well have my own bed and table cause I'm not leaving. 😂😂😂
The way you say Orange just cracks me up. Love the channel so far
Thank you! I get the Arhhange comment frequently, but I don't hear this one.
I love watching Greg’s Evolution from more reserved to just straight up embracing his goofy side and just rolling with whatever happens
Love the music in the background.
I never realized how OCD i am until i started watching your videos!! You spilling stuff in slo-mo gets to me every time. :)
This hits different in the middle of the pandemic....excited to the days of future communal bowls
We gotta make something to get this channel out to the world. Great content, big team. Love your work!
Call me an alcoholic or just a massive fan of the show but I think I've been coming back to this channel almost daily waiting for your next video! Please tell me your just off enjoying a lovely holiday and will be back soon! 😂😎
Cool, seeing the crew.... Good job on the show everyone 👍🏿
Now that is a drink. Love it
Best episode yet!
Love your channel man.
this looks like a lot of fun!
rofl, i had no idea you had so many people working on this show with you! Pretty amazing. good job guys and keep up the great work! I look forward to new shows all the time.
Man that is a huge team! Say thanks to all of them for me.
I don't even drink but i been watching your videos are cool. The things you watch late night
This channel is so underrated, love from another amateur bartender :)
Cool to see the behind the scenes crew!
Hey, I just wanted to say thanks! Not only has my bartending game improved drastically, but since I DJ a lot of swing dances, discovering Glenn Crytzer through your channel has also drastically improved my DJing game. Thanks man!
Thank you so much for saying so, always happy to help introduce Glenn to others as well!
Started at the Old Fashioned video, love your videos!
Thank you!
I don't drink but I really like watching your channel when I smoke. It's realxing
My friend Chris Stanley, mixologist extraordinaire, introduced me till this drink. I love it!
I have no friends, so I halved the ingredients and made a single-serve version in a happy/sad tiki glass. It was delicious!
So you made it a double?
AMAZING again man!
I appreciate that you explain what the ingredients are! Because I wouldn't have any idea what Demerara or Orgeat are! Your videos are awesome and produced great!
Thank you!
the unyielding eye contact at the end LOL, keep up the great work!
Steve had the best face the whole time and you got his name wrong! He’s definitely a frontman, not assistant camera.
Hey first off, awesome videos loving your content. Was wondering if you could do a video on shaking technique and how you tell when to stop shaking? Keep it up man!
Awesome as always. It's a great idea for a party :)
I love Smuggler's Cove. Went to the one in San Francisco once for my birthday this year. There was a Rum I tried there that was absolutely amazing, sadly I've forgotten which one it is. :(
Watching this during corona time the moment you all got together completely wierded me out xD
Damm High Quality Production , Why hasn't this channel blown up yeeet
Thanks for saying so! Might be blowing up right now
Wulf Pack it’s been requested a few times so I’ll have to do something on it!
Greg your awesome. I saw you review the white russian, I was sad you didn't like it. You got me hooked on the black Cuban though. Thank you. Just subscribed
From what I understand he should have used the actual coffee liquor rather than his brand he chose, I'm not a drinker but even I'm aware that different brands taste differently and if you are following a recipe then follow the recipe.
Now if your experimenting then go ahead and experiment, just dont call a recipe bad because you didn't follow it the way it was intended XD
Nice showing the crew.
Shout-out to Smuggler's Cove! I hope that you are referring to the bar in San Francisco. I live and have been there a few times. Excellent bar with an amazing decor and delicious drinks.
The last bit with the crew made me laugh 😂
Best channel on youtube, keep it up!!
Thank you!
Steve is the thing hiding in the shadows of your darkest nightmares. Look into those eyes!
Damn thats a big crew you have there. Cool channel.
HTD team making booze dreams come true! Good work guys!
Thank you!
Looks good!
Nice to see some of the behind-the-scenes crew you work with every day. You're entertaining but it's nice to see the other guys and gal.
Idea: do a drink based on the Classic Movie Guys and Dolls!!!!
Nice big finish!
God, those slow mo pour shots just make this show. Also the old timey music.
Oooooooh. Notifications on = first dibs. 😍🙌🏼😁 TIKI TIKI TIKI
😂😂😂 Chris..... 😑Steve. Hahaha
Steve stares the camera down like nobody else could ever do. My spine shivered😂
Lovely ❤
ML! thanks for that!
Dana did not stop drinking and i respect that
A must have item for mixing tiki bowl drinks at home is a 30oz mako shaker tin. You can use a standard 28oz shaker tin with it as a cheater tin. Also useful when making a round of standard drinks for guests.
Thanks for the tip! I’m looking into it now
It is one of those bar tools that I don't know how I lived without it. Cheers.
Love your channel so much but omd you spill so much! The ocd hurts 😂😂 such a good channel
Enjoy your channel man. Keep it up. Making me thirsty.
Thank you Steven!
We love your videos! There is so much difference of taste between brands. Would consider slowing down when you talk or showing the bottle labels or listing your preferred brands in the description, please? Our favorite of all time so far is the hot buttered rum, I made a small twerk to the recipe and serve it as a winter cocktail at my day spa and everyone loves it. Thanks for educating and entertaining us!
Great video! Are you going to do some fall drinks as it's starting to get cold out?
Feeling so satisfied by that slowmo......
When did the scorpion bowl become a communal drink?
So far as I know it’s always been?
How To Drink oh ic. Whenever I ordered them, which isn’t that often, I would drink the whole thing. Didn’t know they were meant to be shared.
Somehow these slowmo pour shots never get old
I'm rather sad you're stopping your TIki drinks for the summer!
I discovered this goofy world when I got the Smuggler's Cove book back in April, and I'm now a firm disciple of the ways of Tiki......even if I've never had one of these drinks. Since the summer technically ends next month, I'm surprised you're stopping now. Regardless, I love your show, and I look forward to what you make next!
We shot all these episodes over the course of a weekend and there was just only so many episodes we could cram into the schedule, I definitely want to do more in the realm of Tiki, I just don't have the content at the moment.
Love the Smuggler's Cove book though, easily one of my favorites.
A drink o time traveling quality God bless you
Watching this in 2020 is such a different vibe
Watching longingly at these pre covid videos.
Its funny xD I dont drink but I rly like watch him make this stuff
Hey, I think that you should do a video that shows everyone what they would need to get started making cocktails and a few pointers to help them get started.
Also keep up the good work I love watching your videos😄
I would love for him to go through all the brands they use on the show, just to get an idea of new stuff to try
