Hey. Appreciate all the nice videos. Just thought of a tip for you. Harvey Wallbanger is mentioned and drunk in the movie Game Night, at the 35minute mark. All the best
Just a quick question: What's the difference between rhum agricole and cachaça? Couldn't you use them interchangeably as both are distilled from sugarcane juice rather than from molasses?
I'm from Martinique and all I can say is well done! That's the authentic way of doing it and I'm glad you like it too. Thanks for all your other great videos as well
As a french martinican I am so glad to see you make the institution that is the Ti'punch. Also I am pleseantly surprised ! Why did you choose this drink which is not so famous. Have you been to Martinique ? Also Clement is a really good rhum, just the best Martinican rhum to me is Jm or HSE. You might want to give it a try ;)
Brother, nothing is better than a Ti Punch made with a Rhum Neisson or as called in Martinique "Zépol Carré" ! For white rhums, JM is a great one too and the new A1710 is interesting. For aged or dark rhums, the best are St James, HSE, Bally, and the best of the best , La Favorite "Le Flibuste" (in my opinion the best rum in the world, no contest). Clément is not too bad and the easiest to find in the USA, but the other ones are generally better.
Ti’ Punch is also one of the first, if not the first recipe in one of Death & Co’s books. I suspect that is a large reason of it’s somewhat recent rise in popularity. Rum and Tiki are also rising up again, minus the kitschy bar atmosphere. 🙂
Aha! J'allais justement dire ça. Je me suis fais un ti-punch avec du rum JM récemment..wow! :D J'adore cette distillerie. Je garde un beau souvenir de ma visite là bas.
There's a Rum Agricole tradition in Madeira Island that led to a similar drink called Poncha. They make it with several flavours from tangerine to mango but the most traditional is called Pescador (Fishermans) and is only made with lemon and sugar. It's interesting bc the process starts with the skin of a full lemon (no pit) mashed with sugar, only after lemon juice is added, and then a healthy dose of 50abv white agricole rum It's funny that you post this video and yesterday I came from a vacation in Madeira Island. I'm bringing several great wines and rums... One bottle broke, and it's the one you're using to make this video haha
You should try to make it by first adding sugar, second press lime and mix them up. Then add the rum. This way the drink is more balanced since the sugar is kind of dissolved by the lime juice (like a quick oleo saccharum). Nice video by the way !
In French Guyana the Ti'punch is done slightly different. You start with a 2oz glass, you "coat" the bottom with thick cane syrup, then you squeeze the juice of a sixth of a lime and drop the lime piece in the glass, finish it by covering with rhum agricole (preferably from La Belle Cabresse) up to the top.
I usually prefer to put sugar then lime to let and mix with a spoon to allow the sugar to melt, then add the rhum, if you put rhum second the sugar don't dilute well in alcohol... Thanks for sharing this awesome Caribbean cocktail Your videos are awesome
Didnt have any of the ingredients so i made something up, same thing but replace the Vegie rum with regular rum and the lime with a lemon. plus a few extra drops of lemon and add half of a bar spoon of maple syrup and its really good.
So happy to see this video! Absolutely obsesseddddd with Ti Punch. It’s practically all I drank for a while after getting back. You’ve gotta try Neisson and JM if you haven’t previously, generally regarded as the best and crowd favs (and justified!) It’s also pretty good with a lightly aged agricole to switch it up sometimes - the “eleve su bois” ones are just rested in large oak vessels instead of stainless. Not quite “aged” as they don’t spend time in small barrels for extended periods, so they still retain a lot of the grassiness. Great video, Nick!
Any chance you'd be interested at making a decent Aviation? (Gin, Maraschino, Crème de violette, Lemon) .. I've tried and tried! And while they look great - they taste terrible.
While watching, I am drinking Hot Whiskey Punch (Blackwood's, from Wondrich's *Punch*) from what one might consider the polar opposite climate to that which Ti' Punch hails (apart from the moisture), yet they are pretty similar. Spirit (Whiskey vs Rum), raw type of sugar, citrus peel oils but little-to-no citrus juice, and some water (although one is on the verge of gaseousness and one is solid). It's getting warmer here in Iowa, but I'm not quite ready to give up the winter drinks (apart from Egg Nogg, which has taken its toll).
Any chance we can see a great bloody mary recipe? I've had so many, and most of them have been terrible, but when I find a good one, its a real treat. Would be grateful to learn how to make a good one.
I don't know if this would count as a cocktail, but the Mississippi Queen from Regular Show seems like it could be a cool thing to make, you get to put one of those small umbrellas in it
I've used your clear ice making technique in the past with success but I notice that your ice doesn't crack from thermal shock when put in contact with the liquid. My freezer is at -18c, is that too cold or am I missing something?
This sounds similar to a Caipirinha. The main differences are that you’re using cachaca, which I’ve been told is similar to rum both in flavor and distillation (I’ve never actually had it), and you’re muddling the hell out of the lime.
It works best with white rhum or very young golden rhum. For example, the one year old JM golden is perfectly fine as well (the one called "rhum élevé sous bois"). Older rhums, typically the ones called "rhum vieux" have a less vegetal, more wood-like flavor that is less desirable for a ti-punch.
This makes no sense using a swizzle stick without ice. That could have been done with a spoon. The point of a swizzle stick is to mix the drink but also to chill and dilute with ice spreading the chill to get the glass cold and frosted.
That depends what you mean by 'traditional rum' really. It's a good solid spirit, punchy and grassy, with a very distinctive column still edge to it. It's nothing like the over-sweetened crap you see in most chain bars, the ones with pirates and colouring/flavouring etc. If you're comparing to something like mount gay, appletons etc, then it's different but still a decent rum. If you mean Kraken, bacardi, morgans etc, it's a whole other world.
@@SImonSmiles84 Thanks for the info. When I say 'traditional rum' I was more talking the later of what you mentioned, what you traditionally would find at a bar. I have never been a fan of the heavy syrupy feeling and flavor, in fact it actually makes me partially nauseous. From what you mentioned, it sounds like this would be worth a try, so I'll have to pick some up!
@@Flupperz Martinique Rhums have been winning the best Rum competitions for years. It doesn't get better in terms of fine taste and quality. If you compare to whiskeys it's like Bacardi is Jim Beam and a good Martinique Rhum is Macallan. Give it a try if you see a bottle! In general they are rare as it's a small island with limited export quantities.
It's from the Dominican Republic and its kind of like a mulled wine i guess. wikipedia describes it much better than I can: a drink from the Dominican Republic that is concocted by allowing rum, red wine, and honey to soak in a bottle with tree bark and herbs.
I love your videos and always have a blast watching them. I have a suggestion for a cocktail for one of your future shows. It's from the parody movie Loaded Weapon. As best as I can tell, it's one part Jack Daniels, one part vodka, one part unknown drink (possibly bourbon), and two squeezes of chocolate syrup. With your expertise and some modifications, I think this could turn into a good drink. Keep up the good work! th-cam.com/video/SCeAPNfnhTE/w-d-xo.html&t=140
Shout out to searchandrescuedenim.com for the beautiful apron! Lots of people asked where I got this from, these guys are fantastic.

3:03 That burn was on Fyre :^)
Great vid, BDSM apron was nice but this one looks better TBFH especially with the logo

9:36am this video just uploaded and it's the first thing I'm watching in the morning lmao
Cheers ;)
@@b.janisch4108 Cheers to you too ;)
Haha
Some of those rare wonderful nights when you get new video from both babish and cocktail chemistry.
i like that apron but im in love with that black shirt
you always wear, i need one of those...
As a french martinican I am so glad to see you make the institution that is the Ti'punch. Also I am pleseantly surprised ! Why did you choose this drink which is not so famous. Have you been to Martinique ?
Also Clement is a really good rhum, just the best Martinican rhum to me is Jm or HSE. You might want to give it a try ;)

As a French but not martinican I really enjoy HSE.
I was inspired by a new bar here in SF called Obispo which is all about rum, and they make a mean Ti' Punch. I think they use La Favorite blanc rhum
Ti’ Punch is also one of the first, if not the first recipe in one of Death & Co’s books. I suspect that is a large reason of it’s somewhat recent rise in popularity. Rum and Tiki are also rising up again, minus the kitschy bar atmosphere. 🙂

Thanks for sharing this awesome Caribbean cocktail
Your videos are awesome
New apron is 100% better than that fetish thing you've been wearing!
ಠ_ಠ
No kinkshaming
That burn was fyre
I see what you did there
How about a cocktail version of the Shamrock Shake??
Damn that cutaway to the beach with your narration over it really put me in the vacation mood haha
Didnt have any of the ingredients so i made something up, same thing but replace the Vegie rum with regular rum and the lime with a lemon. plus a few extra drops of lemon and add half of a bar spoon of maple syrup and its really good.
It's been too long man!!
Awesome cocktail 🍸 BTW

Thanks for the advice on how to make it! Gotta try that JM soon
Very similar to a caipirinha. Looks delicious!

Press F to pay respects to black leather apron.
Sorry I called it a gimp suit lol
Nice apron. I thought you muddle the lime and sugar/syrup in a Ti Punch?
My favorite cocktail. Dig the new apron.
Can't really go wrong with an interesting rum, sugar, and lime!
Scheming to bring a music festival to a Caribbean island...
Bravo *clap clap*
He was on fyre with that joke.
What happened to the live cocktail classes? Low interest or you've just been busy? Love the videos!
Yes! I love doing those and want to do more. Hopefully in April, any requests?

Dat denim apron is dopee AF! Any chance if you would try out the London Lemming from Johnny English Strikes Again? Keep up the awesome job man 🔥
Difference between that rum and cachaca? Difference between this drink and daiquiri?
Not the same taste at all. You have to try them to figure it out.
Great video man!
Neat. Seems like a cross between an old fashioned and a caiprinha (another drink I'd love to see your take on).
I don't know if this would count as a cocktail, but the Mississippi Queen from Regular Show seems like it could be a cool thing to make, you get to put one of those small umbrellas in it
It's very similar to a Caipirinha, just with a different cane juice based alcohol. I guess there's a bit more lime in the Brazil version.
Cachaça! also known as Pinga!
I've used your clear ice making technique in the past with success but I notice that your ice doesn't crack from thermal shock when put in contact with the liquid. My freezer is at -18c, is that too cold or am I missing something?
Gotta let it temper in your glass for a few minutes before adding the cocktail
Thanks! I'll give it a shot soon!
The second version sounds good to me !
I would watch the heck out of a video covering drinks from Venture Bros, there are so many!!
Yooo best channel
Finally a new video
Bruh was that Fyre festival shade I just noticed lol
What is the difference between this and the Haitian version?
I would like to request Trinidad Sour :)
Will do it one day! Got my jumbo sized bottle of ango ready to go
I wonder if a can try these with charanda
So this is an island version of the caipirinha?
I wonder the same thing...
What about the Grateful Dead cocktail ?
You should make the 'Velvet Lechance', 'White Gold Tower' and 'Cliff Racer'. From The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim!
Can you make The Joan from Parks and Rec?
You should make the Caprese Martini from Neo Yokio
Plz do a elderflower syrup video
Anyone know a good cocktail with a very smokey single malt whisky?
Churchill's breakfast
What are your suggestions if we dont have that much of the recipes but still wanna bartend?
I'd love to have a sip, but what's the name of the song in the background?

I just found this thing called a galaxy cocktail and I think I’d be awesome if you made that
Didn’t you already make a clear ice video a while back nick?
Do you have a recommended list of cocktail books?
Does the agricole need to be blanc? I was looking at getting some Rhum J.M gold soon.
It works best with white rhum or very young golden rhum. For example, the one year old JM golden is perfectly fine as well (the one called "rhum élevé sous bois"). Older rhums, typically the ones called "rhum vieux" have a less vegetal, more wood-like flavor that is less desirable for a ti-punch.
You should attempt to make nuka-shine. It's from the fallout series.
Please make the Gabardine Hightail from the show Psych
This makes no sense using a swizzle stick without ice. That could have been done with a spoon. The point of a swizzle stick is to mix the drink but also to chill and dilute with ice spreading the chill to get the glass cold and frosted.
The denim is nice but the leather had a nice color contrast i think
One of these days you'll have no choice but to make some of Rusty Venture's cocktails.
Could you make a ladieboy from Alan Partridge?
what's that?
Nice, that last one made you look like you were from a Hostel movie!
How about some Star Trek inspired cocktails. There’s a ton in DS9
Can you please make a Grasshopper from The Big Bang Theory?
Did you make sure to boil your denim?
no, should I?
What’s octane?
Would this rum be something that you could see someone enjoying who doesn't typically enjoy the flavor of traditional rum?
It is a bit different from other kinds of rhum but I think if you don't like rhum in general, you're likely to dislike this type as well

You havnt done mamajuana here before right? Seem like it would be up your alley
Not heard of it, what is it?

Very similar to a Caipirinha
Nearly a Brazilian caipirinha.
