Jello: *sips lemonade* Jello: the year is 2013. You’re sitting on the beach with a summer sweetheart, the salty spray of the ocean glistening in your hair. You kiss her for what you know will be the last time as you prepare to be sent overseas for active duty. As you stand, she clutches your hand firmly, a tear streaming down your cheek. She presses your hand to her heart and whispers in your ear: “I’ll be waiting for you.” And she still is. This lemonade is her passion, your heartache, and the dipping summer sun in the most cruel of fading nights… Jello: 2
This is actually one of my favourite things to do for meals with friends without the rating. Just try to visualize the flavour with terms not meant to describe flavour, and then fail to peer pressure anyone else into doing it.
I managed to find pink lenonade swoon in a local store and obliviously brought it home expecting it to NOT be THAT bad. My first sip can only be described as drinking V8, expecting fruit punch, and tasting tomato juice. It is so watery at first and then it overpowers your entire mouth and causes your senses to amalgamate and die in embarassment.
Considering how Jello described it, I think Swoon being compared to V8 is an insult to V8. V8 juice, while very much not to everyone’s taste, can be pretty good. It’s more of a blender of fruits and vegetables than it is a fruit punch, but it’s still pretty solid.
If it helps: monkfruit isn't known to cause vomiting, but some people are sensitive to erythritol to the point that it makes them vomit, and erythritol is commonly used as filler for monkfruit-based sweeteners (because monkfruit extract itself is EXTREMELY strong).
@@Toneill029 It's more that human metabolism is weird. Different people process the same chemicals very differently. For example, normally when someone drinks alcohol (ethanol), it gets turned by an enzyme called alcohol dehydrogenase into acetaldehyde (ethanal), which is toxic and is the main cause of hangovers, but that then gets turned into harmless acetic acid by a family of enzymes called aldehyde dehydrogenase 2. (You can think of an enzyme sorta like a robot at a factory - it takes specific inputs and produces specific outputs.) But some people have a deficiency in aldehyde dehydrogenase 2, so even if they drink a small amount of alcohol, they'll end up very sick, because their body takes way longer to get rid of the acetaldehyde than most people. Conversely, some people have an unusually high amount of aldehyde dehydrogenase 2, or overactive aldehyde dehydrogenase 2, so they can drink extraordinary amounts to seemingly no effect. So in short, that's why some people can put erythritol in their coffee every morning and Jello feels very sick after having a very small amount of it.
Other Drink Reviewers: “Nice Earthy taste, Very rounded taste. An overall good drink” Jello: “Have you ever been stabbed multiple times and then shot, that’s this drink”
Jello saying “Ooh I know what this tastes like!” Is the equivalent to Phineas saying “Hey Ferb I know what we’re doing today!” And instead of,making an invention like Phineas and Ferb, Jello instead gives out a complex simile and/or metaphor describing a bad lemonade.
"you know that feeling when you trip or drop something and it feels like time slows down as all the adrenaline in your body surges to save you? That's what this tastes like. 3"
I love how he described his experiences. Example: "it tastes like candle" and "this lemonade has never met a lemon, but its cousin was roommates with a lemon."
I love the image of jello buying $150 dollars worth of lemonade from one store and when the cashier finally asks what it's all for, he hesitates for a second before saying "it's for work" and then remaining completely silent for the rest of the transaction.
Honestly the worst part isn't the taste, or the flushing out the excrement, it's not being able to eat or have a drink that isn't water. I have low blood sugar and I had to get a colonoscopy once and the prep was torture. I had temperamental mood swings after 8 hours and I was constantly fighting dehydration as it got to the point where the only thing left in my intestines was the water I just had. I ended up passing out on the toilet for a good minute in the middle of the night because I couldn't retain fluid thanks to the suprep.
The way this man describes things is fucking TOP NOTCH “Like you bit into a lemon and the inside was mushroom” “Like it was made from the leaves a ladybug crawled on”

The monkfruit plot follows the rule of threes. It has the setup when he first encounters it, the reminder when he double checked for it, and payoff when he's deceived by it. This is a cinematic masterpiece.

I fully love how Jello describes things because it's the exact way I do it. Every time he gives "tasting notes" on something I'm just sitting here going "Yup, makes sense."
(26:07) I don't know why, but hearing jello say, "Oh no, girl!" Like he's just heard his drunk friend mumble something about texting her ex is sending me into the stratosphere. I can't stop replaying it.
My doctor decided that I should go off my anxiety medication cause I'm "not in a stressful state anymore" and I didn't tell her that I won't be able to meet my therapist for another month and I'll be under so much stress from switching schools and being around a toxic relative for the holidays so now I'm off it having the worst time of my life and this video is helping me get through just one more day so I can go back and at least have the medicine for this weird time of anxiety. Sorry for venting basically In this comment section but I have to say jello's videos are so oddly relaxing and I love them so much.
I’m gonna be honest, all of the Jello “random fun thing he (and usually his friends) did because they just felt like it” are comfort watches for me. Dogs in Love, Price is Right, and this one are all that for me.
Of note, there were two lemonades I have tried in the past that I COULD NOT locate for this video: - Newman's Own Lemonade, which is very very good. Likely a 4 or a 5, if memory serves. - Cock and Bull Bitter Lemonade, which is horrendous. It was my old "worst lemonade" before I tried Swoon.
I have to second Larry Laffer's comment on Milo's. I only discovered it at Walmart fairly recently and I get it every time I'm there. It's like 3-4 ingredients iirc. Water, Cane Sugar and Lemon/Lemon Juice/Lemon juice concentrate (don't remember exactly). It's a solid lemonade.

fun fact: i used to stock santa cruz organic at the local grocery mart, and we had to recall them THREE TIMES for sprouting just, *explosive* amonts of mold under the labels and inside of *completely sealed bottles with the pop seal intact*
this comment actually came in handy for me! i started at a grocery store on night shift, was stocking the juice aisle, happened to look down at the Santa Cruz and mentioned this comment and sure as hell, like 6 or 7 of the bottles on the shelf were just absolutely infested with mold so i scored some major points that day
@jero37 depends on what version of colorblind The colorblind form everyone thinks of where everything is monochromatic is actually one of the rarest forms of colorblindness. The more common versions have issues with red and/or green colors
@@the_fish8005 I'm aware of red green colorblindness. My grandfather had it. It was a colorblind executive who picked the pink color for the Kzinti's ship and uniforms in Star Trek the animated series when they adapted a Larry Niven story. He thought that the color was a gray.
So on the topic of Honey and Lemon, most cocktail enthusiasts actually water down their honey into a syrup before combining it with lemon. The two flavors pair REALLY WELL together, but they can't be left alone in a room together. The vast majority of cocktails involving honey includes lemon juice or another strong sour flavor (Bee's Knees, Eau de Lavender, Tequila Honey Bee, etc)
@@Volcora no don't start to hate each other and won't be able to mix that's why you got to keep him separate rooms so they don't learn about each other before it's too late

some of my favorite moments: 5:25 - daryl 7:33 - jello drinks a candle (followed by pool and blood) 11:12 - swoon pink 14:56 - jello does a wiggle 18:33 - experiment 53 19:10 - "...I just figured out what this tastes like." 33:03 - lord remington
Ok so I tried the rose lemonade (which is made by the same brand as the one from lord Remington) and it sounds like a weirdly specific description, but that’s exactly how to describe it
"This is the liquid Ophelia drowned in" has to be the most underrated description of the Whole Foods "Green Lemonade," along with "The potion seller's strongest potion." I have watched this video so many times, and even with all of the amazing descriptions and reactions to the different lemonades throughout this video, I am still astounded by the fact that when he drank one of the more flowery ones, he somehow knew and quoted that John Mulaney comedy sketch almost perfectly AT RANDOM, and did a perfect impression of him out of nowhere! As if flexing on us by buying that much lemonade wasn't enough, now he's flexing his voice on us too! Truly an amazing video, and definitely my favorite from Jello Apocalypse.
@@phantomgrape Fortunately for all of us, he uploaded a second stream on Twitch for Alex's Lemonade Stand, and although it is about four hours long, the breaks in sanity he has in between some of the ratings are hilarious. I highly recommend you check it out until he uploads a condensed version like this one, and I hope you enjoy it! :)
@@sophie6413 RUclips sadly doesn't really let me link anything from other sites, but if you simply look at his Twitch videos, it should be from a few months ago. Hope you enjoy watching it, I enjoyed it quite a bit!
This video is fascinating, can't stop rewatching it like every month. So many great moments, from "It tastes like artisanal Sprite" to "Why do you have monkfruit in you you bitch?!" Makes me want to see the next lemonade stream quite a lot.
The "it tastes like Blue" one is funny to me, cause saying it sounds unhelpful, but I feel like most people would go "Yeah I've had that flavor before." But anyway, love the videos Jello!
I mean it's like.. Blue. Things that taste Blue include: - That lemonade - Blue raspberry Jolly Ranchers - The blue Airhead - Uhh like those blue Skittles in the wildberry pack The taste of Blue is kind of like how Azurill, Marill, and Azumarill all look. Like, "Yeah that's Blue alright." You know?
Blue Hawaiian or blue raspberry(not the same flavor). Is usually what you think of when you think tastes like blue. Blue hawaii is based off of a cocktail supposively. Blue raspberry is based off of fiction.
@@cakeisthebestintheworld she bought it and hasn't said anything further. I have been waiting on an update for a little while (about a week as she bought both of them officially a week ago. I made the recommendation to her a while ago tho)
I mean, even if each bottle cost 5 bucks (some definitely cost more but plenty are in the 2-3 buck range), that would only only be around 400 bucks. That's a drop in the bucket given I think the original 7 episode session was in the 100,000 range.

My girlfriend and I live in rural Canada, and after I showed her this video we went on a hunt for Calypso. We couldn't find the island wave one but we found the peach one and I get it. It IS like drinking a candle.
I think a few days after I originally watched this I did get a pink one and it is candle personified. I've only gotten it twice since then, it's definitely not an everyday drink, or even every month
I’ve had the strawberry lemonade one, drank it on a hot summer day. Does taste like a candle but man. It’s nice by a swimming pool. Wondered why I got sugar shakes later lol
I’ve had a majority of them, and the island wave one especially is like downing a candle. Like the wax dries and stays in your mouth and throat and even feels thicker, too. It was the most surreal thing trying it and being like,” Wow………..He was right. “
Have you never had a ladybug crawl on your hand and squirt that icky orange stuff on you? That lemonade tasted exactly the same as that smell. Real bad.
@@EndyStar I did some very basic googling and could not find support for the claim that ladybugs and ladybeetles are separate insects, and certainly not two different insects with different abilities.
Minute Maid is literally “The drink in the vending machine next to the concrete public restroom in the middle of a park” I LOVE it. Edit: I just had my first Calypso the other day (Pineapple Peach) and holy shit that Is literally just the cheap syrup that they put on top of shaved ice, yeah it’s a LOT. I mixed it with seltzer and it way pretty good then but seriously it literally is just artificial fruit syrup lol
Minute Maid is what I drink when I’m wandering somewhere weird at midnight and need a vending machine drink that’s not soda. It doesn’t taste good, but it tastes necessary. It’s quintessential. It’d gas station in the middle of nowhere on a road trip. You don't want it, but you need it.

Jello: When you get a colonoscopy, you have to drink this substance called Suprep Me (Who's had to drink Suprep): _Immediately starts to cringe and heave_
@@LinguaPhiliax I too belief everyone should live at least long enough to require a colonoscopy. No one should die that young. Addendum: I also found out that you really shouldnt have a colonoscopy if you're very young. Like not even a teenager. Because when you're that young, your bowels are obviously smaller and also much weaker, to the point the tube used for the colonoscopy is likely to actually puncture your bowels and thus cause serious issues.
I've watched this video like 5 or 6 times now, I have literally NO idea why its so entertaining and almost comforting for me. But I really like this video.

Takes a sip. "...okay, have you ever been on acid at a music festival, and been REALLY dehydrated because you've been flop-sweating and not drinking water, so you decide to go get some water back at camp, but on the way you get distracted by the water shimmering off the creek and seeing people frolicking in the water, so you decide to take a detour to splash around with some new people, but just upstream there's a dude using some biodegradable soap to bathe in the water, so you bounce, then get back to camp, and have that first BIG drink of water that cuts your thirst by like 65% all on its own, but you can taste some of the creek water and biodegradable soap film on your tongue, but you're so thirsty and high that you decide you just don't care and go in for another drink? This tastes like that."
As a cocktail bartender, often when someone tells me they don't like alcohol, they usually follow up with something that tells me either they want an easy excuse to not drink (in which case sure, you don't need an excuse with me, i'm not going to force you to drink, but 100% i stand by you choosing not to) or they had like, one drink that was too strong and decided all alcoholic drinks were bad. I love correcting the misconceptions of this second lot by finding a drink that'd they'd love. You, you seem legitimately in the third category, where you actually are sensitive to the taste of alcohol, but that makes it all the more an interesting challenge, finding a drink that would suit your tastes. Considering what i can tell of your tastes here, I'd first have to ask how you feel about the taste of orange or lychee berry, but i actually think i have an idea what i'd suggest.
I was personally the kind of person who thought I didn't like alcohol at all, especially in mixed drinks, but the problem was almost consistently that the alcohol involved was vodka, which I still maintain is the most boring "basically just ethanol" alcohol that has a distractingly strong taste for something used so often in mixed drinks when things like gin, rum, tequila, or mezcal would be better choices.
I dislike alcohol because it just burns, no matter if im drinking some5ing light or not, masked or not. even with drinks I enjoy (Pina colada, bloody mary, etc.) I always end up preferring the drink virgin because the alcohol takes away from my enjoyment. I habe tried various wines, sakes, and other less intense alcohols. The only type of alcoholic drink i like is the one where you CANNOT taste the alcohol. What suggestions you got?
idk if i am in category 2 or 3, because i am sensitive to alcohol. but to me all alcohol also tastes like a very specific cough supressing medicine, which was the first thing with alcohol i ever ingested. it's 96% ethanol.
This might just be the funniest taste testing video I have ever seen. Jello's energy makes it interesting, but it always feels genuine! Like, none of it is forced, this is just his energy. ESPECIALLY with the cream of tartar one. I wouldn't mind seeing more videos like this!
My favorite lemonade I ever had I'd one made by the local dive. It's Chili Mint Limeade. It's spicy, tart, and minty all in one and it combines to be an incredibly complex taste. The heat is all concentrated to the back of your throat which is the best place IMHO because tongue and lips just hurt. I've tried to recreate it and have gotten close but ultimately failed. How I would recommend making it is steap lemon zest, sliced chilies (I would recommend poblano, serrano, and Anaheim, in that order), and chopped mint leaves in hot simple syrup for a good... about an hour I guess, no specific time. Strain the solids and mix the syrup with lemon juice and water. It's really good. Edit: I personally prefer lime zest + juice over lemon but the two in tandem is also valid
@@ThatsGoodToast1 yeah, that's where a lot of the oil is. It's a pretty mild heat from my own experience, but I'm also someone who enjoys a certain level of spice to begin with, so it's up to your own discretion.

Everything about this is perfection. The terrifyingly specific descriptions, your little dancing wiggles when something surprises you, pulling the lemonade out of the oven. You’ve got this sort of charm where it’s hard to look away and not laugh with you!
0:50 this bit is so much funnier now bc the context for why you put lemonade in the oven is just completely gone now it's just "alright lemme get my lemonade from my SPECIAL LEMONADE PLACE" and it's in the OVEN

Jello describing the lemonades in the beginning: Frolicking through a blueberry mist with a lemon jacket, Eating a leaf that a ladybug just crawled over, bitter and mellow Jello describing the lemonades a few minutes later: some kids have lemonade stands, meanwhile Darrel from down the street comes out of a fucking meth lab
I can't get over the fact that the lemonade that tasted like candle got a 5. Mainly because at that point I knew the rest of the drinks would just go downhill in quality
37:57 YES! Finally, someone who feels the same way I do about alcohol in drinks. I have maybe twice ever been given a drink where the alcohol was _actually_ undetectable. More often than not, 'doesn't taste like alcohol' just means it has _less_ of a burn up front because it's saving it up to sock you in the mouth after the rest of the liquid's been swallowed.
Funny enough, the drinks I couldn’t taste alcohol in (because I’m the same way) were Mike’s lemonades. I could BARELY sense it in the blue freezie one, especially if I got the version that you put in the freezer and then make into a slushie.
both the gm for gamenight and I both are like this, unfortunately we have a friend who keeps trying to find "your drink" as if everyone has at least one alcoholic drink they enjoy
At 18:40 I very much enjoy the Frankenstein-esque scene he describes the powder lemonades with, especially because I'm a nut for anything strawberry flavored, and I can never find a good powdered strawberry lemonade.
I love these completely out-of-nowhere comparisons to absolutely non-lemonade things in this lemonade review stream "Hey so you know when you're body-surfing..." "When you have a colonoscopy..." "You know how when you're playing with water guns..."
I have literally watched this video 3 times in 3 days and it STILL makes me laugh. Plus the bubbly personality of the presenter is hilarious and comforting
Same, holy shit, that's the first one that had me laughing for a minute straight, I'm still laughing as I type this. The pure confused enjoyment and insane description was just solid gold mixed with pickle
my favourite thing about this video is absolutely the fact that if you don't LOOK at it for the intro, the whole thing sounds like he's describing one terrabad lemonade and i love it
Jello is just so lovable in general. Everything about the way he talks to the way his videos are edited just screams a friendly, funny guy. I wish he did more videos like this!
When I saw the fentimann rose lemonade at 34:10 I knew it would kill. It might be my favorite beverage of all time. Perfect mix between sour, bitter and sweet. Highly recommend it, it's just expensive for lemonade
The founder of the Dole Pineapple Company was the cousin of Hawaii’a first “president” (overthrew native Hawaiian rule and very shortly before annexation). Castle & Cooke, an American agricultural interest based in Hawaii (founded in 1851, for reference a big influence on American military intervention into Hawaii were American plantation owners) later bought them out and merged them with Standard Fruit Company which was famous for mayyybe overthrowing the government of Honduras as one of the “banana republic” companies. That is to say Dole is like an amalgamation of some of the most comically villainous American fruit companies.
Came back to this for a light refresher, drinking Mike’s Hard Black Cherry Lemonade, which is my first alcoholic drink as a 21-year-old man. Thank you. Thank you for this excellent alcoholic drink.
Idk what it is about Jello's videos, but whenever a new one comes out, I end up watching it 2-3 times while I work on other things just to take in all the top-tier comedy.
Honestly there are a few Jello videos I’ve watched way too many times. This video I’ve watched probably 4 or 5 times, I’ve watched the Pokémon Colosseum videos (both “Who is the Hottest Pokémon Character?” and “Pokémon Colosseum - Dogs in Love”) probably 5 or 6 times as well.
I don't know if I should be surprised to the fact that Jello has never been drunk before which means that everything that he makes is not in a drunken state or impressed/terrified that he's just like that. Obviously I am here for it, I completely relate to someone being super weird to the point someone thinks your drunk and you've never drank alcohol in your life. Props to Jello he's one of my favorite creators on RUclips.
I get something similar when I talk philosophy or art and games. They ask how high/drunk were you when you think of this crazy stuff. I just say I don't drink or intoxicate myself out of necessity.
"Mike, do you know what lemonade is?" No I don't, and this will probably be the closest I'll ever get to drinking most of these. Thanks for letting me live vicariously through you.

@@lilfigurative yeah pretty much
Jello’s going through a “fuck it, do whatever” phase and I too have watched the Scooby character video in its entirety about twelve times
He has this way of describing things in ways that instantly make sense. Hope he makes more stuff like this
Jello saying “Ooh I know what this tastes like!” Is the equivalent to Phineas saying “Hey Ferb I know what we’re doing today!” And instead of,making an invention like Phineas and Ferb, Jello instead gives out a complex simile and/or metaphor describing a bad lemonade.
"you know that feeling when you trip or drop something and it feels like time slows down as all the adrenaline in your body surges to save you? That's what this tastes like. 3"
I love how he described his experiences. Example: "it tastes like candle" and "this lemonade has never met a lemon, but its cousin was roommates with a lemon."
And then there’s the description of :”French Aristocrat with a piss fetish.”
Lord Remington
"Me and the PLEASE!"
"Oh, beautifu-HONEY-!"
"this lemonade never met a lemon " sounds like a Gordon Ramsay roast
and yet somehow, you know exactly what it tastes like
I love the image of jello buying $150 dollars worth of lemonade from one store and when the cashier finally asks what it's all for, he hesitates for a second before saying "it's for work" and then remaining completely silent for the rest of the transaction.
Honestly no one asked so I just told them unprompted

@@JelloApocalypse You are a mad man and I love it. I just want to see you rant about everything now

That colonoscopy bit was one of the biggest “where the fuck is he going with this?” moments I’ve had in a while
Honestly the worst part isn't the taste, or the flushing out the excrement, it's not being able to eat or have a drink that isn't water. I have low blood sugar and I had to get a colonoscopy once and the prep was torture. I had temperamental mood swings after 8 hours and I was constantly fighting dehydration as it got to the point where the only thing left in my intestines was the water I just had. I ended up passing out on the toilet for a good minute in the middle of the night because I couldn't retain fluid thanks to the suprep.
as someone who had a colonoscopy last year i immediately knew EXACTLY what he was about to compare it to and i was right
The way this man describes things is fucking TOP NOTCH
“Like you bit into a lemon and the inside was mushroom”
“Like it was made from the leaves a ladybug crawled on”
Don't forget "Smells like a french aristocrat with a piss fetish"
“Like you **sucks on water gun** just exactly like that”
"A French aristocrat with a piss fetish"
“When you get a colonoscopy…”
c a n d l e
"What a little weirdo...anyway back to my 3 hour Lemonade stream" took me the fuck out more than anything else

(26:07) I don't know why, but hearing jello say, "Oh no, girl!" Like he's just heard his drunk friend mumble something about texting her ex is sending me into the stratosphere. I can't stop replaying it.
This is one of my comfort videos. It just has personality and such a chill nice atmosphere.
Im glad i'm not the only one who watches this everytime I need to lift my mood up
My doctor decided that I should go off my anxiety medication cause I'm "not in a stressful state anymore" and I didn't tell her that I won't be able to meet my therapist for another month and I'll be under so much stress from switching schools and being around a toxic relative for the holidays so now I'm off it having the worst time of my life and this video is helping me get through just one more day so I can go back and at least have the medicine for this weird time of anxiety. Sorry for venting basically In this comment section but I have to say jello's videos are so oddly relaxing and I love them so much.
@@scripsiabiete Wait, why didn't you tell her?
Yeah this is one of my favorites
I’m gonna be honest, all of the Jello “random fun thing he (and usually his friends) did because they just felt like it” are comfort watches for me. Dogs in Love, Price is Right, and this one are all that for me.
Of note, there were two lemonades I have tried in the past that I COULD NOT locate for this video:
- Newman's Own Lemonade, which is very very good. Likely a 4 or a 5, if memory serves.
- Cock and Bull Bitter Lemonade, which is horrendous. It was my old "worst lemonade" before I tried Swoon.
You just could tell us the name and we could guess that it's shit
Newman's own Ranch dressing is great
I have to second Larry Laffer's comment on Milo's. I only discovered it at Walmart fairly recently and I get it every time I'm there. It's like 3-4 ingredients iirc. Water, Cane Sugar and Lemon/Lemon Juice/Lemon juice concentrate (don't remember exactly). It's a solid lemonade.
Newman's own lemonade is the kind of lemonade I get lol
Publix and milos lemonade
I thought the steadily-accumulating "good lemonade mix cup" was going to be tried at the end, so now I'm just puzzled as to its inclusion
Same. I was waiting with anticipation
SAME!!
soon, just you wait
he actually did drink it, if you watch the stream. he also had another jug with every single kind of lemonade
“Mike keeps his secrets” is one of the funniest things I’ve heard and I’ve watched this video well over 10 times now

this is like a cutaway gag where the main characters are having a waterballoon fight and it hits the window or smthn just to establish that their actions are causing some sort of damage
fun fact: i used to stock santa cruz organic at the local grocery mart, and we had to recall them THREE TIMES for sprouting just, *explosive* amonts of mold under the labels and inside of *completely sealed bottles with the pop seal intact*
Oh my god is there a reason they did that??
@@MinecraftLover58 sounds like they didnt clean the plastic bottles before filling. Also consider that it would need to be warm enough... bleeerh
ew that's scary actually
@@Draphia the bottle of that brand are glass from my experience
this comment actually came in handy for me! i started at a grocery store on night shift, was stocking the juice aisle, happened to look down at the Santa Cruz and mentioned this comment and sure as hell, like 6 or 7 of the bottles on the shelf were just absolutely infested with mold so i scored some major points that day
I bet the people who made Swoon were color blind, because how in the world do you make lemonade dirt color and say “yep that’s pink.”
They call it Swoon because it will cause you to pass out if you drink it.
Colorblind people will demonstrably think pink is GRAY.
@jero37 depends on what version of colorblind
The colorblind form everyone thinks of where everything is monochromatic is actually one of the rarest forms of colorblindness. The more common versions have issues with red and/or green colors
@@the_fish8005 I'm aware of red green colorblindness. My grandfather had it. It was a colorblind executive who picked the pink color for the Kzinti's ship and uniforms in Star Trek the animated series when they adapted a Larry Niven story. He thought that the color was a gray.
So on the topic of Honey and Lemon, most cocktail enthusiasts actually water down their honey into a syrup before combining it with lemon. The two flavors pair REALLY WELL together, but they can't be left alone in a room together. The vast majority of cocktails involving honey includes lemon juice or another strong sour flavor (Bee's Knees, Eau de Lavender, Tequila Honey Bee, etc)
Can't be let in a room together? As in, can't be pre-mixed?
@@Volcora no don't start to hate each other and won't be able to mix that's why you got to keep him separate rooms so they don't learn about each other before it's too late
@@Volcora can't be the only two flavors that are being presented. They need the astringency of tea or alcohol to rein them in.
@@SomeoneNews lemon juice is known for committing several war crimes in Southern Ukraine
@@blightsteel101 and what did honey do
1:12 I love how he starts using comparisons to describe the lemonade with a beutiful metaphor about blueberry mist, and then later on "when you get a colonoscopy"
"C a n d l e"
"never met a lemon, but had a cousin whose roommate was lemon"
What
"Darrell comes out of a meth lab"
“And then lord Remington pulls out a PICKLE and starts stirring the lemonade with it”
"I MELTED DOWN A BUCKET OF JOLLY RANCHERS!"
33:00 No matter how many times I watch this, the "Lord Remington with a pickle" bit always makes me laugh until my face is sore.
Lord Remington is even more prevalent in the sequel
some of my favorite moments:
5:25 - daryl
7:33 - jello drinks a candle (followed by pool and blood)
11:12 - swoon pink
14:56 - jello does a wiggle
18:33 - experiment 53
19:10 - "...I just figured out what this tastes like."
33:03 - lord remington
The fact that *candle, pool, and blood* have become the new unofficial flavors for the Calypso drinks is so fucking funny, to me.
Ok so I tried the rose lemonade (which is made by the same brand as the one from lord Remington) and it sounds like a weirdly specific description, but that’s exactly how to describe it
here, drink it you bitch XDXD
“Here! Drink it you *bitch!* “
ah yess, scented candle
"This is the liquid Ophelia drowned in" has to be the most underrated description of the Whole Foods "Green Lemonade," along with "The potion seller's strongest potion."
I have watched this video so many times, and even with all of the amazing descriptions and reactions to the different lemonades throughout this video, I am still astounded by the fact that when he drank one of the more flowery ones, he somehow knew and quoted that John Mulaney comedy sketch almost perfectly AT RANDOM, and did a perfect impression of him out of nowhere! As if flexing on us by buying that much lemonade wasn't enough, now he's flexing his voice on us too! Truly an amazing video, and definitely my favorite from Jello Apocalypse.
im happy to know im not the only one that cant stop coming back to this video
i'm so addicted to this video I hope he does this again
@@phantomgrape Fortunately for all of us, he uploaded a second stream on Twitch for Alex's Lemonade Stand, and although it is about four hours long, the breaks in sanity he has in between some of the ratings are hilarious.

Mee too.
Have I got news for both of you.
@@ginganinja0636 thank you. I would have not noticed the video if you didn't tell me. Thank you.
@dragonluck777 no problem my dude. Its just as funny.
The "it tastes like Blue" one is funny to me, cause saying it sounds unhelpful, but I feel like most people would go "Yeah I've had that flavor before." But anyway, love the videos Jello!
I mean it's like.. Blue. Things that taste Blue include:
- That lemonade
- Blue raspberry Jolly Ranchers
- The blue Airhead
- Uhh like those blue Skittles in the wildberry pack
The taste of Blue is kind of like how Azurill, Marill, and Azumarill all look. Like, "Yeah that's Blue alright." You know?
Blue Hawaiian or blue raspberry(not the same flavor). Is usually what you think of when you think tastes like blue.
Blue hawaii is based off of a cocktail supposively. Blue raspberry is based off of fiction.
I mean have you ever had blue Hawaiian punch or blue kool-aid before?
Anyone who’s had Blue Powerade, or a blue Jolly Rancher, or basically blue anything, knows what flavor Blue is.

My girlfriend and I live in rural Canada, and after I showed her this video we went on a hunt for Calypso. We couldn't find the island wave one but we found the peach one and I get it. It IS like drinking a candle.
Syrupy and aggressively fragrant?
I think a few days after I originally watched this I did get a pink one and it is candle personified. I've only gotten it twice since then, it's definitely not an everyday drink, or even every month
I’ve had the strawberry lemonade one, drank it on a hot summer day. Does taste like a candle but man. It’s nice by a swimming pool.
Wondered why I got sugar shakes later lol
I’ve had a majority of them, and the island wave one especially is like downing a candle. Like the wax dries and stays in your mouth and throat and even feels thicker, too. It was the most surreal thing trying it and being like,” Wow………..He was right. “

Don’t give him ideas like that he’ll go mad with power
they? neat!
@@thegreatsaiyaman1126 after this and the scooby video I wouldn’t even be mad
As a cocktail bartender, often when someone tells me they don't like alcohol, they usually follow up with something that tells me either they want an easy excuse to not drink (in which case sure, you don't need an excuse with me, i'm not going to force you to drink, but 100% i stand by you choosing not to) or they had like, one drink that was too strong and decided all alcoholic drinks were bad. I love correcting the misconceptions of this second lot by finding a drink that'd they'd love.
You, you seem legitimately in the third category, where you actually are sensitive to the taste of alcohol, but that makes it all the more an interesting challenge, finding a drink that would suit your tastes.
Considering what i can tell of your tastes here, I'd first have to ask how you feel about the taste of orange or lychee berry, but i actually think i have an idea what i'd suggest.
I was personally the kind of person who thought I didn't like alcohol at all, especially in mixed drinks, but the problem was almost consistently that the alcohol involved was vodka, which I still maintain is the most boring "basically just ethanol" alcohol that has a distractingly strong taste for something used so often in mixed drinks when things like gin, rum, tequila, or mezcal would be better choices.
what would you recommend? I think Im in the 3rd category too.
I dislike alcohol because it just burns, no matter if im drinking some5ing light or not, masked or not. even with drinks I enjoy (Pina colada, bloody mary, etc.) I always end up preferring the drink virgin because the alcohol takes away from my enjoyment. I habe tried various wines, sakes, and other less intense alcohols. The only type of alcoholic drink i like is the one where you CANNOT taste the alcohol.
What suggestions you got?
@@mastermarkus5307even seeing the word vodka makes me feel a visceral sense of disgust, it’s so foul
idk if i am in category 2 or 3, because i am sensitive to alcohol. but to me all alcohol also tastes like a very specific cough supressing medicine, which was the first thing with alcohol i ever ingested. it's 96% ethanol.
This might just be the funniest taste testing video I have ever seen. Jello's energy makes it interesting, but it always feels genuine! Like, none of it is forced, this is just his energy. ESPECIALLY with the cream of tartar one. I wouldn't mind seeing more videos like this!
It’s on par with BDG’s ice cream vid
You have such a way of picking out specific horrific descriptors. I actually felt like i took physical damage when you brought up the dentist.
-5 stamina
i love how jello always has the most specific analogy to describe something
My favorite lemonade I ever had I'd one made by the local dive. It's Chili Mint Limeade. It's spicy, tart, and minty all in one and it combines to be an incredibly complex taste. The heat is all concentrated to the back of your throat which is the best place IMHO because tongue and lips just hurt. I've tried to recreate it and have gotten close but ultimately failed. How I would recommend making it is steap lemon zest, sliced chilies (I would recommend poblano, serrano, and Anaheim, in that order), and chopped mint leaves in hot simple syrup for a good... about an hour I guess, no specific time. Strain the solids and mix the syrup with lemon juice and water. It's really good.
Edit: I personally prefer lime zest + juice over lemon but the two in tandem is also valid
Hey there, quick question, when you say sliced chilies does that mean seeds and all?
@@ThatsGoodToast1 yeah, that's where a lot of the oil is. It's a pretty mild heat from my own experience, but I'm also someone who enjoys a certain level of spice to begin with, so it's up to your own discretion.
@@U.Inferno Alright then, maybe I'll give it a try. Thanks!
I love how you can pinpoint the exact moment Jello took Psychic damage when he tried the Swoon. And you can probably guess roughly how much he took
A solid 12d8
I'm saying a good 8d20
23:56 "What a weirdo. Anyways back to my 3 hour lemonade stream."
25:45 OH NO
28:19 "oh, beautiful- 👹HOONEEEEYY👹"
33:04 THE EXPLANATIONS ARE SO FUNNY
34:01 **mildly confused wiggles**
Everything about this is perfection. The terrifyingly specific descriptions, your little dancing wiggles when something surprises you, pulling the lemonade out of the oven. You’ve got this sort of charm where it’s hard to look away and not laugh with you!
I need a timestamp for oven lemonade, please
@@colorpow2668 very beginning
0:50 this bit is so much funnier now bc the context for why you put lemonade in the oven is just completely gone now it's just "alright lemme get my lemonade from my SPECIAL LEMONADE PLACE" and it's in the OVEN
What is the context?
I also would like to know context
Yes context plz
There was context?
For those asking the context was that he ran out of room in the fridge and shelves.
Can't say I understand what's wrong with the floor but I guess he doesn't have to lean over as much?
I bought and tried the candle one. Idk what I was expecting but it somehow lives up to the expectations.
I legitimately had to stop and do a double take when I saw the Calypso lemonade on the bottom shelf, btw
I literally can't get over how you describe things, more writers need a vocabulary as good as yours
Candle
Jello describing the lemonades in the beginning: Frolicking through a blueberry mist with a lemon jacket, Eating a leaf that a ladybug just crawled over, bitter and mellow
Jello describing the lemonades a few minutes later: some kids have lemonade stands, meanwhile Darrel from down the street comes out of a fucking meth lab
“And lord Remington pulls out an ENTIRE PICKLE OUT OF HIS POCKET
"When you get a colonoscopy..."
@@roshambo282 "THIS IS LIKE DRINKING A CANDLE!"
“And then it’s like… asparagus???”
5:36 for those who are curious about that last one!
I love how when Jello keeps the lemonade in his mouth to get the taste, he looks like he’s chewing the lemonade.
where's ur pfp from? looks nice
I can't get over the fact that the lemonade that tasted like candle got a 5. Mainly because at that point I knew the rest of the drinks would just go downhill in quality
37:57 YES! Finally, someone who feels the same way I do about alcohol in drinks. I have maybe twice ever been given a drink where the alcohol was _actually_ undetectable. More often than not, 'doesn't taste like alcohol' just means it has _less_ of a burn up front because it's saving it up to sock you in the mouth after the rest of the liquid's been swallowed.
Funny enough, the drinks I couldn’t taste alcohol in (because I’m the same way) were Mike’s lemonades. I could BARELY sense it in the blue freezie one, especially if I got the version that you put in the freezer and then make into a slushie.
Thus the Russian mule, when made properly, after 5 cups you cant stand
both the gm for gamenight and I both are like this, unfortunately we have a friend who keeps trying to find "your drink" as if everyone has at least one alcoholic drink they enjoy
At 18:40 I very much enjoy the Frankenstein-esque scene he describes the powder lemonades with, especially because I'm a nut for anything strawberry flavored, and I can never find a good powdered strawberry lemonade.
It isn't lemonade, but crystal light's strawberry kiwi is pretty good imo
20:22 "It's never met a lemon. But its cousin... was roommates with a lemon"
That's... quite an interesting way of describing it XD
I love how you don't just talk about drinks, you give them a whole ass backstory.
You better give us a part two to this glorious video.
Wish granted
I love these completely out-of-nowhere comparisons to absolutely non-lemonade things in this lemonade review stream
"Hey so you know when you're body-surfing..."
"When you have a colonoscopy..."
"You know how when you're playing with water guns..."
The best ones are definitely when he takes a sip and immediately checks the ingredients list
As great as Lord Remington's pickle and Darryl were, I think the best moment might actually be the whiteboard licking.
"Lord Remington's Pickle" is my favourite erotic novel
@@IfIHadMyTimeAgain "Drink it, you bitch!" is, of course, a direct quote.
just watching the lemonade jungle juice ominously rising throughout the video brings me an indescribable feeling of dread
I have literally watched this video 3 times in 3 days and it STILL makes me laugh. Plus the bubbly personality of the presenter is hilarious and comforting
Ikr
I immediately started laughing when he said “and lord remmington pulls out a pickle from his pocket”
Same, holy shit, that's the first one that had me laughing for a minute straight, I'm still laughing as I type this. The pure confused enjoyment and insane description was just solid gold mixed with pickle
Do you not carry a pocket pickle with you?
"Here! _Drink it you _*_bitch!"_*
my favourite thing about this video is absolutely the fact that if you don't LOOK at it for the intro, the whole thing sounds like he's describing one terrabad lemonade and i love it
Jello is just so lovable in general. Everything about the way he talks to the way his videos are edited just screams a friendly, funny guy. I wish he did more videos like this!
When I saw the fentimann rose lemonade at 34:10 I knew it would kill. It might be my favorite beverage of all time. Perfect mix between sour, bitter and sweet. Highly recommend it, it's just expensive for lemonade
His descriptions are so good I can almost taste the lemonades, even though I’ve never had most of these. It’s incredible
33:04 I NEED someone to animate this segment, the scene is just so vivid in my mind
The founder of the Dole Pineapple Company was the cousin of Hawaii’a first “president” (overthrew native Hawaiian rule and very shortly before annexation). Castle & Cooke, an American agricultural interest based in Hawaii (founded in 1851, for reference a big influence on American military intervention into Hawaii were American plantation owners) later bought them out and merged them with Standard Fruit Company which was famous for mayyybe overthrowing the government of Honduras as one of the “banana republic” companies.
That is to say Dole is like an amalgamation of some of the most comically villainous American fruit companies.
Holy shit it really is
OH NO WONDER IT TASTES LIKE S-T
Came back to this for a light refresher, drinking Mike’s Hard Black Cherry Lemonade, which is my first alcoholic drink as a 21-year-old man.
Thank you. Thank you for this excellent alcoholic drink.
Idk what it is about Jello's videos, but whenever a new one comes out, I end up watching it 2-3 times while I work on other things just to take in all the top-tier comedy.
Yo same. Did that so much with the Scooby Doo video for the Fred Propaganda!
@@sunnybloom7272 Same! That's also a favorite. That and the Patreon Reviews in Many Words and the Let's Make an Animal Crossing Game video
Honestly there are a few Jello videos I’ve watched way too many times. This video I’ve watched probably 4 or 5 times, I’ve watched the Pokémon Colosseum videos (both “Who is the Hottest Pokémon Character?” and “Pokémon Colosseum - Dogs in Love”) probably 5 or 6 times as well.
Hun, this has been out for 2 months, I have watched this 10 to 20 thimes, and I STILL come back!
@@remmytheclown3125 I love that!! I'm the exact same way with it 😂❤️❤️
I have chronic ulcers and therefore can't drink lemonade but I'll happily watch a three hour stream of a man drinking lemonade for some reason
Never before have I heard someone give my exact take on how alcohol tastes.
I don't know if I should be surprised to the fact that Jello has never been drunk before which means that everything that he makes is not in a drunken state or impressed/terrified that he's just like that. Obviously I am here for it, I completely relate to someone being super weird to the point someone thinks your drunk and you've never drank alcohol in your life. Props to Jello he's one of my favorite creators on RUclips.
I get something similar when I talk philosophy or art and games. They ask how high/drunk were you when you think of this crazy stuff. I just say I don't drink or intoxicate myself out of necessity.
"Mike, do you know what lemonade is?" No I don't, and this will probably be the closest I'll ever get to drinking most of these. Thanks for letting me live vicariously through you.
35:06- Shout out to the one dude making an Emperor's New Groove reference
