    I think the improved midori cocktail was close to genius- I propose lengthening with a white rum, tiki bitters, and a lime twist. But it may lack in bass. I think midori’s problem is how much treble there is means that when it features in a cocktail as the main spirit, you have to find every bass note you can to counter it.

    • @kaiserhundkek2531
      @kaiserhundkek2531 2 месяца назад

Hard pour, and lengthen with 7-up. It comes out neon green and is not half bad. We nicknamed it the Midori Meltdown

    I have notes on the “improved” midori cocktail, as someone who know a LITERALLY NOTHING about mixology or even alcohol a ton and doesn’t drink but is facilitated by breaking down elements of flavors to see what’s in it. What if you did citrus bitters instead of chocolate and maybe club soda and maybe something with a more peanutty flavor profile to help proof it up and some salt… (that’s if you wanna actually maybe make it good) I’m curious if the edits make it good

    I actually had "Risky Sour" when I went to a bar and asked the bartender for a cocktail on Fireball, he suggested a Whiskey Sour and after thinking for a second I decided "Fuck it we ball", he made it without Jager but damn it was good, from that point on it's my favorite "surprise cocktail" I make for people, they usually love it too

    I feel like this one was a lot tamer, but it was still fun. I look forward to more daring bad ideas coming onto the show in a future episode. I'm curious about the Pain Maker, and I still think the Pesto Sour is god tier. Also, how about we ruin an Irish Car Bomb and make it an Irish Car Party? If you're from the isles you know what this means.

    Jägermeister has wormwood, which is the major ingredient in vermouth and absinthe that gives them their most distinct flavour; its flavour is akin to that of anise, but it's really a different plant altogether. (It also has gentian, and those two contribute heavily to its bitterness; gentian is notably a major ingredient in a tonne of bitters.)
