The Big Lebowski's "White Russian" | How to Drink

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 พ.ย. 2017
- On this episode of How to Drink, I am looking at a cocktail made famous by “The Big Lebowski” called the White Russian. This is the first drink within the show that I use vodka, and to be honest the first drink that I’m not a fan of. So because of that I decided to make it two ways. Hope you enjoy. Cheers!

I am thrilled to announced that I've just partnered with Curiada to make it easier to get your hands on the bottle I use, here's an affiliate link:

I know I'm kind of off topic but do anybody know of a good site to watch newly released movies online ?
@Kendall Kamden I would suggest flixzone. Just search on google for it =)
Over in Ireland we have a thing called a black Russian like a White Russian but with Guinness in it, it tastes like chocolate milkshake really nice.
That chicory coffee ruined it lol 😂
Your coffee syrup better pop
You hate it? Well.. that's just, like, your opinion, man.
Have a like!
thank you
well played
The dude abides.
mantis JK lmfao
The kahlua would’ve really tied the cocktail together man
Absolutely correct
I like what you did there man...
ruins a white russian, makes some bogus drink and then leaves a comment like that - if i was subbed i would unsub right now xd
@@iv4nGG he left that comment, made a chaser video and then later when he did another run of videos he did an entire four drinks based on the white russian, with the original correct recipe and a bunch of info, and multiple blog posts. how much more do you want from a guy? come on man...
Fucking A
My dad had a weird habit of going to a restaurant known for something, ordering something else, then judging the restaurant. You can’t judge the quality of a steakhouse when you ordered the fish. And that’s exactly what he did here!
Ughhhh that’s like my biggest pet peeve. GET WHAT A PLACE IS KNOWN FOR
Ok, slightly off topic, but I took a friend out to a fantastic sushi restaurant and she ordered Bailey's with her food. ☹☹☹☹
Classic dad move.
Like use the Kaluha lol I'm pretty sure its the st George's fault
Well, if a steak place is selling fish that sucks, maybe they just shouldn't? Someone walks into a food place, orders food, and it sucks. Why is it on the menu?
“Careful man, there’s a beverage here” is a frequently used phrase in my household
“Start talking and talk fast, you lousy bum!! Where’s my goddamn money, you bum!!??”
Same here i don't drink alcohol but I say in regards to my soda pop
Yes, it is the Saint George’s fault. Most high quality coffee liqueurs are too bitter. Kahlúa works because it’s really sweet. I had the same problem when trying to use a rowhouse spirits coffee liqueur.
But that’s like, my opinion man.
No, you’re on the money here.
How To Drink and you’ve just earned a thumbs up and a subscribe.
That's true, I went to buy Kahlua once but the store didn't have it so I asked if they could recommend something else, and they gave me an espresso liqueur and my white russians tasted pretty bad.
Make tour own coffee liquor ! It's as simple as a batch of cold brew coffee, simple syrup frome raw cane sugar and some rum
i thought you should add Baileys in it?
“I don’t wanna blame it on the St. George stuff” well everyone else does apparently lol
Their products are fine, but not just the particular fit for THIS drink. I guess that's what he meant.
Throw out that hipster bottle of sick and make your coffee liqueur from scratch ... like Babish.
New Orleans style coffee is gonna be bunt and bitter
My guess would be demara simple syrup and ,halve the grey goose or Skyy....Stoli is a little harsh
@@chooseymomschoose Please be less cringe, thanks.
@@chooseymomschoose Mentions hipsters, yet recommends "Babish" the most hipsterish cooking channel.
The kahlua probably would’ve made this drink taste correct. I just had one a few nights ago and it should taste like a milkshake!
Lots of ice and a bit of stirring goes a long way too
I knew when he added the St George that he ruined the drink. Kahlua is very sweet, like whipped cream sweet. From how he described the flavor I can tell St George is a very coffee dominant liqueur.
The St. Georges coffee Liqueur is lovely on its own, but it is certainly bitter and heavy. It is /NOT/ happy to be mixed.
That flannel shirt really ties the room together.
The Dude will not be pleased with your decision not to use Kahlua
The Dude abides, Faith. Although he does f'ing hate the Eagles, man.
Yes sir
kingofallcrypto Seconded. Chicory was put in coffee during the Civil War, because of Union blockades, not because it tastes good. Been to NO, ate beignets at CDM, and sipped my cappuccino with a smile as my wife suffered that awful “coffee.”
Jeffery also uses half and half
That’s just like your opinion, man.
It tasted terrible because the hipster in you had to use a "better" kahlua...
This is actually accurate. There's a followup video I did on this one where I make it with kahlua and it's much better.
I was thinking the same thing!
@@howtodrink i was schooled to use milk instead of cream and lightly mix the drink, it looks like when you try out the first drink you only get cream XD but as Michael said, dont mess with the kaluha
For real haha dumbass , if u making the dudes drink u need khalua
Well you fucked up by not using kahlua and getting all cute by using hipster shit! The dude uses half and half not heavy cream and you forgot to stir the damn drink! You were out of you’re element on this one donny! Haha
Donny was never out of his league…he was in fact out of his element.
Vodka, Kahlua, Half and Half. Done.
I'm all about using better ingredients, but this is one situation where you should stick to the program.
In retrospect I don’t disagree! I did a followup video to this one, should be a link in the end-screen.
@@howtodrink I appreciate the reply, man. I just stumbled across your channel today, but you've definitely earned a sub from me. Cheers!
Yep
I use vodka, cold brew, heavy cream and a sweetener to taste.
Amen dude
Should have stuck to Kahlua and a better vodka
stolichnaya smh...
Stoli is a pretty classy vodka in my opinion
Stoli is good enough; anything midrange or better works. Best to stay away from piss like Skyy or Vitali - personally I use either Absolut or Smirnoff, depending on what's in my freezer. I've seen folks use Goose and shit but that's a waste of cash to me.
Tito’s! Everything else is lighter fluid
@@cyclonus69 titos is like nail polish remover🤢
Stoliqanoya. This is the first time I hear americans pronounce this word.
Only one american says it that way.
Yeah, what@@Chainsaw-ASMR said. Lol. I've always pronounced it Stole-ish-nigh-ya
We don’t speak Russian
I’m watching this when it’s 5 years old and as good and as knowledgeable as he is now it just makes this video all that much funnier 😂 love you and your videos 🙂
its been said by many others but I actually tested it to be sure. it is 100% the saint Georges.
@Jacob Jaywant you're not supposed to mix it...
@Jacob Jaywant I always thought it was just topped but I'll have to give it a shot then. Thanks for the information!
@Jacob Jaywant you definitely mix it, how much is personal preference. me? i like it lightly shaken. and honestly? a dash of amaretto blends the flavors together perfectly.
@@instathrill8845 I use frangelico :)
Yes, he should have made one with khalua also along with st George one
1.5 vodka, 1 Kahlua, half and half, and ice cubes. No hipster ingredients.
@kingofallcrypto Or was it hippies? Well they lost, anyway.
Fuck hipsters
Thank you- saved me the seven minutes
Tia Maria if you can’t get Kahlua but Kahlua is better, half and half or creamy milk, a Russian measure of Vodka and enough of the coffee liqueur to give it a coffee like taste but not overpower it and ice.
exactly.
Greg, do you need to keep the coffee syrup (and the Simple Syrup, fruit syrups, Grenadine, etc.) refrigerated, or do they stay out on top of the bar? I've recently started making cocktails at home, and I'm learning the basics.
This is one of my favorite drinks, but heavy cream or half and half can destroy my stomach sometimes. I found that Malibu, kahlua, and coconut milk can make a pretty good drink for those that are lactose intolerant. Not quite the same but it is pretty good.
Malibu is great on a pizza with ham and pineapple
This aggression will not stand, man XD
she fucking kidnapped herself... that little bitch
Well, the official recipe in the Big Lebowski calls for Smirnoff’s, Kahlua, and Half-and-Half.
Do yourself a favor and try it with Tito's Vodka
@@HunterTeddy010 I was just going to ask if Tito's would be a good vodka to use!! Thanks!
@@stevennieto9898 Tito's is always a good choice. It is super smooth.
@@HunterTeddy010 I'm not too big a fan of vodka, but have also never tried Tito's before. Can't wait.
@@stevennieto9898 Tito's is one of the smoothest of the standard Vodkas (stuff like Svedka, Absolut, Stoli, and Smirnoff).
That rug really tied the room together
this was the first drink i had when i just turned 18 i went with my brothers and cousins to a bar and i love it
IMO Stoli is a terrible vodka. You need something relatively neutral, but that does not have a rubbing alcohol nose. (That is why your rum was better.) The coffee liqueur must be sweet with little bitterness, since the vodka raises the bitter notes. Hence, your problem with the chicory coffee and your being fine with your syrup. The cream should also be stirred into the drink. This is not a layered drink, but a new beverage formed through the languid dance of the three ingredients. Abide.
Chickory also kinda tastes like medicine so I really didn't understand why he was so surprised that it tasted the way it did.
Stoli served up or neat is super fucking neutral and non-nosy.
Spoken like a true dude. I make mine with Reyka & Kalhua and have had no complaints.
@Heathen I agree. I always mix the cream (or milk) in. And a side note, while a less fumy vodka can be preferable, I personally feel that vodka isn't needed at all, I often swap out the vodka for more coffee liquor. But, that's just me. A tad of spiced rum (or black spiced) is nice, too. Tastes like Christmas.
Some would argue that all vodka is terrible. It's all neutral and it's most used purpose is simply adding alcohol to drinks.
The Big Lebowski was far from an overnight sensation. It failed in the US box office and the reviews were mixed. It wasn't until a few years when it started to gain its cult classic status and good reviews.
DeathBlackWish uh... “overnight” in the longer sense?
..there ISN'T any 'overnight' in the longer sense..backpedaling nonsense..
Soviet who Cuts Nope, there definitely isn’t. Overnight implies instantaneous.
That's just your opinion man
First time watching. Instant sub. Thanks for the great content!
“You make one hell of a Caucasian Jackie!” That’s what it looked like you were thinking after you tasted that White Russian lol
The closeup of liquid pouring into the glass is so satisfying.
That’s the idea!
For me, it's mainly because he doesn't spill it. If even one drop fell outside the glass I'd cringe. Yes, I may suffer from (or benefit from, depending on how you see it) O.C.D. At the very least a touch of neurosis. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Here for the pour porn!
Agree, is pretty neat
'Some people use half and half or milk, don't do that, you should use heavy cream'
*Uses Heavy Cream*
'I hate this.'
WELL. >:(
I use horchata (cinnamon infused rice/almond milk) and it's lovely. Makes it a white mexican I guess
@@havokmusicinc I've been telling people bout the horchata for years man
@@havokmusicinc Horchata is Spanish, not Mexican
@@Alan-zv7tt wrong. its not even truely a Spanish drink by origin they make something similar but its not what EVERYBODY knows as Horchata. Nice try tho you Europeans love going "dUuH wE maDE THaTt"
Capo Santana no dumbass. It varies region to region but the earliest form was from Valencia (I hope I spelled that right), Spain. It’s in most countries with either rice or almonds. Especially made in Mexico and other places near there. So please stop being so rude to everybody because you are an ignorant buffoon.
Great Man !!! Cheers... Happy New Year !
so... to spin this, ive been making glasses of strawberry milk
4 oz stoli elit vodka
2 oz strawberry baileys
2 oz white chocolate creamer (starbucks makes this)
halfing these proportions would probably make sense for most also.
This has met an overwhelming positive reaction from my circles at least.
To clarify, i also keep my vodka as cold as possible before serving, with the other ingredients chilled and serve without ice, to each their own.
*I go a little lighter on the vodka for the people i know who cant quite handle as much*
Big fan of white Russians even before big lebowski came out. A great way to add flavor and change the drink up a bit is to pour a ring of frangelico over the top after adding the cream. And yes kahlua is a must.
It's been quite some time since you made this comment and I hope you're doing well, because this was an amazing suggestion and I was literally just looking for a way to add Frangelico into something, made my day thx.
Really? The white Russian was the first drink I ever liked. It remains one of my favorite to this day.
Samesies
Same here. In fact, the White Russian is my signature drink of choice.
Ditto
Agreed, but he is right, black rum is waaaay better than vodka. You should try it. You might hate that you like it, but the aroma of rum is just so much better. As something easy you might even have hanging around, substitute vodka for captain morgan.
Captain morgan is not a dark rum if that is what you meant.
Man the channel has come a long way, from already being great hahaha
Simply 1/3 glass of whisky plus 2/3 glass of full milk. Add sugar to your preference and mandatory ice . It tastes fabulous. I made that once as an experiment and absolutely loved it. Realized later they were drinking it in Scotland ages ago.
Alright, everybody, repeat: "You are not supposed to judge a recipe when altering its ingredients on the first try-out."
Basically, while you could use a better vodka or pick a different type of cream and maybe get results you'd find more palatable, using a coffee liqueur that's infused with chicory is a *_HUGE_* no-no for a recipe that doesn't call for any bittering agent! Stick to Kahlua or the like.
he really used stolichnaya and some "better kahlua" hes never tried before and said the drink was bad. bruh
@@CRZ_PL It's kinda funny, considering how I hate that you can't get your hands on Grand Marnier Cordon-Jaune (the yellow-ribbon) any more without getting someone to sell their stock (this variant has been discontinued), because it has a different flavour profile from the more expensive Cordon-Rouge (the red-ribbon). And that's primarily because CR uses a Cognac base, whereas CJ used spirit.
And here we have a chicory-infused coffee liqueur instead of Kahlua. [facepalm] Nooo...
@@CRZ_PL Compared to that, having used Stolichnaya and the wrong cream are just minor infractions.
"Better" vodka is a difficult thing to define. In Russia, many of the the best vodkas (not always the most expensive) have neutral flavor, this is highly regarded as a quality of the best vodka. What is interesting, is that in the US Market, some of the cheapest vodkas have the most neutral flavor. This includes Popov! I would not choose Stoli for a White Russian, save it for the 2-3 ingredient mixers... my preference for WR would be Absolut, Sobieski, Tito's, or Popov. Also, the drink should be given a brief, non-violent slush around in the shaker. It chills all the ingredients and helps the fat in the cream combine with the rest of the drink.
@@silvermediastudio Yes, neutral flavour is generally regarded as a good quality; at best, you want the mildest of hints of a flavour, if any. Distinct, notable scents are generally regarded as a defect in Europe.
I usually do a 1:1:1 ratio and shake it up and strain. Mixes it up well and adds some froth. Comes out tasty for me!
I'm not a drinker, but a few months ago my roommates got me into trying alcohol. my first drink was vodka and my first thought was vodka and cold brew.
I can tell by your reaction that I will probably love this drink.
I make mine with the coffee syrup too. It’s got that sweetness that the drink needs so much
Rum,Coffee syrup and milk/cream is called a chocolate soldier🥃🥃
CHOC-O-LATE SOLDIER, DO DO DO DOOT DO DO DO DO DOOOO
FIGHTING FOR SURVIVAL
Its "You're out of your element Donnie!"
, not "league".
Can't quote The Big Lebowski correctly and promptly screws up the White Russian. Typical.
@@frslas I mean, you could say hes out of his element. donnie.
@@frslas Just came across this video and he doesn't quote the movie, nor does he follow the recipe. This was a fail from the start.
Cringeworthy video. Guy should just quit
ttxxdd He redid the White Russian video and he made it properly.
So glad I found your channel. I came by a wood bound book several years ago from 1947 I believe called "How it is Made" a bar keeps book. It has mixology recipes for drinks I've never heard of and I've always been curious about some of them. After watching your content I do believe I've become just Brave enough to attempt re-creating one of these lost wonders. Thank you for your wonderful content as well your hilarious comments and fun tidbits of history.
I tried the black cuban but i make it as black british with pusser's gunpowder rum. Are you not mixing rum and coffee syrup ? Otherwise i feel like you drink it and when you come to the syrup layer it is a bit too sweet. What do you think ? Thanks
I watched this video because I knew a white Russian had vodka and kahlua, and that is what I had available.
After watching, I promptly ignored what he did, poured half absolute, half kahlua, and threw in a splash of vitamin D milk.
I was happy.
You butchered the pronunciation of Stolichnaya beyond imagination.
You're welcome!
Americans can't pronounce shit, but they gave us the The Big Lebowski, so its not all bad.
It is pronounced like Stoleetshnaya ("Capital vodka" )
but nobody drink this shit in Russia
right Michael..they only drink Chopin and other high end vodkas...not! Poor ass peeps...a lot of Russians have health issues before they're 30 because of lack of fresh foods..and cheap vodka consumption...
I don’t really drink at all, but I do enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for sharing your experiences!
Also, people pretty much never drink "heavy cream" (and I've tried it multiple times myself)... whole milk, half and half, evaporated milk, etc just taste better when drunk.
You may be making it as one "should," but IMO the White Russian must be stirred - significantly - as it naturally separates. Your incarnation would (again, IMO) taste like cream with a hint of coffee and vodka.
PSquared1234 I agree.
This. When I don't stir it I just get heavy vodka and some coffee which is probably what he was talking about. As pretty as it looks it tastes better stirred.
True, i was like: "Well maybe if you stir it properly or use a cocktail mixer maybe it wouldnt taste bad"
PSquared1234 100% agree. The Dude stirred it so he should of to.
My father would stir and add a drop of vanilla extract making such a good drink.
Should've used Kahlua. And I go 2 parts heavy cream, 3 parts Kahlua and 4 parts vodka in that order. Gives super awesome clouds in the glass.
Sounds good!
I go 3 3 and 2..not a vodka fan..
Dude, you have to use Kahlua or forget it.
@nickolie flippo in what way? Can you describe it please
I've been subbing the vodka in my white russians for rum ever since I first tried one. It's now my favorite drink.
Thank you for the recipe 🙂 I like the coffee liquorish taste - and it does top all the White Russians that I have made. It shows that rum and coffee goes well together. I made my own syrup from a mix of. cold brew and ground coffee.
Donnie is out of his "element" not league
1:38 Greg you murdered that pronunciation, it's pronounced like stoleechnye-a
Depending on where in Russia/Ukraine, I've heard it pronounced instead of the eech sound, slightly more ich... But not all the way. Kind of between ee and ih.
Greg, can you tell me where I can get that awesome glass you make the black Cuban in? Love that thing.
"Donnie you're out of your element!"
How To Drink no he's pointing out that you should get the quote correctly
King in the North I knows it man, I’m also quoting the film. This is some nice good natured ribbing here.
..cuz half of TH-camrs are on something..
Fun fact! This is my dad's favorite drink! He is kinda a coffee freak anyways, and he's been sober for almost two decades, proud o' you, pop!
He used to take it with heavy cream, too!
Hello from Australia,
Really enjoying your channel.
Its definitely the coffee liquor you used. You have to use kalua.
Kaluah is a coffee liquor and rum mixture, so that second recipe reminds of a sombrero, which is just Kaluah and cream.
It sounds like a fancier way to make it though!
I know you usually do a LOT of abbreviations from the standard recipes, but this time you really took it to a new level.
LOVE his honest response to this drink. Hilarious.
The two shots of vodka meme just plays in my head every time. I have a problem.
Missed you dude! Such good content, always inspires me to try and make whatever you do on the show!
"Ch" in "Stolichnaya" sounds exactly like in the words "Check" or "Challenge"
stole-itch-knee-yaaaaaaa
Just call it Stoli and life is good
It has clearly been a while since you posted this video but give the White Russian a chance, it is a fantastic drink. Here in the UK and under good guidance from friends who are mixologists (that's the title they got after having rather too much enthusiasm for cocktails) but the measurements we use are 1 part vodka, 1/2 part kahlua or Cafe patron and then a milk and double cream mix to top out the drink.
I got a free bottle of whip cream vodka, didn't know what to do with it then started making white russians with it and its pretty good. I do a bit less vodka and more coffee liquor. And I am one of those people who usually use half and half. The one he makes looks REALLY good!
You're back! Thanks for the video Greg!
THANK YOU!
Chicory root did you in man. Any other coffee liquor wouldve done the trick. But *NEVER* add that chicory root St. Georges liquor.
I eas genuinely excited at the prospect of the Black Cuban. Brilliant idea.
“I’ve never been a professional bartender. I’ve never even had a job in a bar. I don’t worry too much about precision or technique”
Some of the people in the comments seem to forget this entirely lol. @Howtodrink - love your videos man and in this particular one (like always) you made it into something you really enjoyed which is wicked! I really want to try your version 👍🏼
I was watching this one and started thinking "What are you doing man!?"
This is how I make mine and I love them
2 ounces Kahlua (THIS IS IMPORTANT, DON'T USE TRENDY CRAP)
3 ounces 100 proof freezer stored Smirnoff
3 ounces half and half (I get mine from a diary, so YMMV, I recommend this is where yous pend your trendy money.)
Stir ingredients together gently, pour into 12 ounce glass tumbler over 3 medium cubes (or spheres) of ice.
I have to disagree with the Kahlua. Yes it works perfectly fine, but by God, the Ristretto liqueur by the Galliano brand is divine. Still coffee, but just a little extra smokiness.
The dude abides .
Greg I fucking missed you, and this is my FAVORITE drink! Awesome!
I missed you too!
"I would have preferred the high-proof stuff." Same man.
Glad to see you give it another shot
I remember making a version of this I called the "Dark Commie." It was 100 proof Vodka, 70 Proof Kahlua Especial and Baileys Irish Creme.
Sounds awesome, I'll try it some day lol.
I know it’s a super simple drink but an Irish Coffee video would be cool imo
That's like you opinion man
yo love your show might try bar-tending myself but what base syrup do you use? i dont wanna accidentally use corn syrup
Thanks you are just too funny. I know I’ll like the black Cuban , oh you’re expression when trying the White Russian, I could relate.
Try Smirnoff and kahlua. That medicine flavor is not normal!!!
I guess I'm gonna have to!
Making it with some of the most intolerable vodka I can think of is a bad start
My first White Russian in 1986 was a combination of one part vodka, one part Kahlua and two parts cream. Try Chopin Potato Vodka.
..what I'm drinking right now..Smirnoff Kahlua and almond mild..niceeeeeeeee........
Smirnoff is garbage.
In Poland we mix milk and hazelnut vodka- drink is called 'monte'- it taste like candies, if you have chance really try this.
I just successfully dieted, the drink you’re describing would undo a lot of hard work...
I absolutely love that you specify the measurements in ml and not only oz. There are a few of us in here who use the metric system :)))
As soon as you said you hated it I laughed.. Love the honesty and subscribed straight away 🤣🤣🇮🇪
.........0:38.....ELEMENT......Donny is out of his fucking element sir....i appreciate the nod to the movie, but this is standard knowledge....
animalmother556x45 I cringed too
animalmother556x45 big facts
Oof. I know. How did nobody catch that!!!?!?!? Deadly sin.
...pissy bitches...
animalmother556x45 shut the fuck up Donny
How does anyone hate White Russian? I hate coffee in general, but I still love that stuff.
He made it like a fucking moron is the reason why. Kahlua's a very *sweet* coffee liqueur, that shit he used is literally a coffee bitter, it could not possibly have been more wrong. When you make a drink ass backwards - it's going to taste like ass.
I made the black Cuban, probably the best drink I've had. Also, I learned how to make coffee syrup which is frickin cool!
I was watching your Dude's episode and came to watch this. You weren't lying, I'm impressed. Not terribly surprised that the run-and-syrup drink would taste better, it's like half sugar :D
I missed you Greg :(
I missed you too!
I love those slo-mo pouring shots.
And this is why I love TH-cam, I don't drink alcohol but the video for old fashioned popped up, but I am a watch geek and have as much fun spotting the watches worn (Nice SKX007) and I love the camera work and photography. Subbed.
Love the channel, subscribed because of that syrup!
Nothing against the original recipe, but I'm Cuban and I approve of his Havana Club infused drink...
But you know, that's like my opinion man🤷🏻♂️
I know you've revisited the Aviation, you should revisit the White Russian, and make it like this.
1.5 oz Vodka
1.5 oz Coffee Liqueur
2 Oz milk
Stir in ice, then add to whiskey glass. Cream is way to heavy. Also adding a bit more Coffee Liqueur gives it a bit more flavour and takes away the harshness of the vodka. It's smooth af and it deserves a place.
Started doing a series called Chaser! It’s a little more vloggy but it lets me do follow ups on these videos easier: Chaser: White Russianth-cam.com/video/9d24SBVEWKc/w-d-xo.html
What do you mean by "Equal parts sugar/water with a cup of coffee added"? Is it also 1 cup of water and 1 cup of sugar? Thanks!
The recipe on screen says 2cups sugar, 2 cups water, 1 cup coffee. More coffee won't hurt, but it might waste the coffee. Personally, I also like more sugar, so that I have less water. You can't really get it wrong, the only point is to have the sugar dissolved in water before it's mixed into a drink, because it won't dissolve in alcohol.
I want that black Cuban! That looks so good. I need to make one
Manhattan Special - YES! Well done, sir!
I’ve tried to use fancier coffee liqueur before too and it always effs it up. You just absolutely have to use the Kalhua. Adding a little frangelica is nice too but not necessary. It’s a one note, weenie cocktail but it really only tastes right when you stick to the traditional ingredients.
Me and the main squeeze is going out and we will enjoy Black Cubans for an aperitif. Thanks, man!
You made a terrible version of a great beverage. Don't blame the recipe, blame the cook
Stir the drink man.
„i dont worry too much about precision and technique” he says it right at the start of every video, no wonder he hates his own drink if he cant be bothered to actually try and make it taste good
The anger in your voice when you say "I hate this drink" cracked me up! Your videos are awesome man.
Thank you!
