We had a camping tradition of heating up orange crush over the campfire... some added hot chocolate to it.
"Ass pennies"!😂😂😂
I'm the weirdo that orders an oj and coke for breakfast...I wonder how that will turn out.
Irn-Bru!
@@surcettinr2600 I bet that'd go well with some whiskey or a milder rum... hell even some tequila!
I was stuck in a cabin a couple years back, in the mountains, 15 degrees fahrenheit, no power. All we had was coke to drink, so out of necissity I warmed it up on the gas stove, and added some Tennessee Fire to it to help with morale. Thus the "Cinnebanja" was born.
15 isn't that bad if you're acclimated to cold. I spent a winter living in a tent with no heater at about -1 to 15 every night at 6900 feet (Williams AZ, places wgere I've spent other winters recently have been much colder but I've lived inside lol) and it was never really an issue... though I was mixing 40 oz "room temp" (about 50 F) margaritas in my thermos, so maybe there's something to the morale angle.
This is something that my family used to do in China, but when you’re sick they’d make “ginger tea”, just ginger slices in boiled water and brown sugar. That recipe later evolved to people using hot coke instead of water and brown sugar. I used to make it all the time in college!
I've seen hot Coke with ginger served in cafes in Guangdong province.
Ginger tea with lemon, honey and chamomile is primo when you're under the weather
Hot coke with lemon was a thing when I visited Hong Kong around 2002.
growing up in the US being sick was always pretty synonymous with Ginger Ale. Seems like Gingers just a home remedy anywhere that can obtain it locally or now through trade.
Ginger Coke you say? You might be onto something. I like ginger ale and Coke mixed together lol
You putting a slice of lemon in the drink right after you named it "Sundowner" is very nice.
The lemon slice has a sunny vibe and look to it, and then you let it sink down in this dark drink. Very poetic
The term sundowning refers to a state of fear and confusion that predominately elderly people often expereince at night in times of illness, especially if they are in an unfamiliar place like a hospital.
@@DangerSquiggles i know. He explained it to some degree, too. What i mean, is, that he accidentally put a layer of visuel storytelling to the drink with the name and the inclusion of the lime. The original meaning behind him naming that drink hasn't changed.
Lemon*
I wonder what the Meral Gear character, an insane American warmonger called Sundowner, would think of it.
He often said he's very in touch with hus inner kid, so him adding Coke his bourbon cocktail would kinda fit.
@@raccoonking7566
he'd think his taste in drinks is FUCKING INVINCIBLE
Hey Greg, chemist and former chemical hygiene/safety officer here. Awesome video, and your comment on "Ammonia coke" is intriguing since I associate amine compounds with a fishy smell, and concentrated ammonium hydroxide smells like what I can only describe as "bleeding out" (tons of iron-y, fresh blood notes), so I'm curious if this would add a nose note more than a flavor/palette note. Though I've herd others say ammonia smells way more fishy than bloody, so I could just have a weird nose. I'm also curious what it would do to the citrus notes, since you'd wind up neutralizing some of the acid in the drink, but I don't think there would be enough added to really knock out the phosphoric acid to a noticeable extent (though the drink might go a bit "saltier" from the neutralization) On a cursory glance, I see people call for ammonium carbonate, or "baker's ammonia", which apparently was a predecessor to baking soda/powder as a leavening agent. This is combined with weak ammonium hydroxide, alcohol, lemon, nutmeg, and lavender to make the classic aromatic ammonia "smelling salts" spirit.
From a safety perspective, the only real danger would be going too hard on the ammonium hydroxide and making the solution too basic/caustic. The LD50 (the point at which 50% of people would die if they ate it) of ammonium hydroxide is 350 mg/kg body weight (in rats), which rounds out to just over 1 ounce of concentrated ammonium hydroxide, which yea...that's a lot and would send you to the hospital from caustic esophageal damage. Every recipe I find for "aromatic ammonia spirits" has the concentration at 1% ammonia, with final drink concentrations ranging in the 0.02% range, so you should be more than safe if you wanted to give it a go as long as you don't swig the bottle directly (which would still be likely safe, just profoundly unpleasant). You could even get some pH paper and test to make sure the pH is in a safe range, if you wanted to be extra careful. If you are making this yourself, and choose to go with adding ammonium hydroxide, just be really careful if you get a bottle of 30% ammonium hydroxide since it can chemically burn you.
Adding the ammonia before heating will likely drive some of the ammonia out of the drink to leave a milder impact, if doing it cold/adding after heating is too intense. If there is a classic recipe that you would like to be vetted for chemical safety, I'd be happy to take a gander and let you know if it sounds sane (or, at the very least, safe)!
Be a laugh to see an irn bru episode one day, if nothing else to see greg sprouting a kilt and opening with a rousing rendition of flower of scotland 😂
Seeing you experiment 'live' abd hearing your thought process as it happens is a treat especially in this series
Same! My favorite HTD videos are the experimental ones
Agree. The vids Greg workshops a drink are among my faves too

Utah's ban on alcohol delivery frustrates me deeply. There are dozens of us! DOZENS!
Right there with you, at least we have High West
Sounds like there's a black market for you to corner.
Dozens? My God, they're multiplying!
Awesome. A.D.
On the Hungarian side of RUclips, like 8 years ago, We had this dude go and cook diet coke, fanta and coke into a seriers of chaotic creations and you just brought back some very funny memories. Thank you.
Do you know what the video was called? That sounds like an awesome watch
Its in Hungarian so i doubt you'll get much of it, but its "Főzzük ki a kólát - Jó lesz az ebédre" by a guy named JustVidman@@issintf925
@@issintf925 Possibly double posting this comment, for me YT doesnt show i replied so sorry if thats the case. its "Főzzük ki a kólát - Jó lesz az ebédre" by "JustVidman".
Ah 2013-18 RUclips was a really unique and amazing place. Good production became more affordable and it was a wildest for ideas.
Coke is a watered down carbonated Amaro. Literally made a coke-a-cola reduction rich syrup last night for experimenting
This sounds right!
In China, it's also used as a lazy-person's base for red-braising (e.g. Coca-Cola chicken wings which are a classic college student dish). Since Coca-Cola already has cinnamon, caramel color, sugar, and citrus oil, you just add a bit of soy sauce and you're good to go.
@@Default78334 the phosphoric acid will tenderize the meat as well
@@howtodrinkmy tongue discernment is garbage tier, however every time discussion turns to something like ramazotti or even carpano antica- someone invariably says “huh this tastes a lot like flat coke”
@@Default78334 A friend that used to live in Beijing did a Coca Cola marinade to chicken and i aint a fan of that.
Now i know that he didnt invent that.
not amyl nitrite, just ammonium carbonate or just ordinary household ammonia.
It'd neutralize a bit of the acid phosphate and citrate, work a bit like an antacid.
The tincture would be around 2% ammonia and have lavender, citrus, and nutmeg, apparently.
The combination of ammonia and phosphoric acid conceptually forms ammonium phosphate which is described to have a salty, cooling taste so there might be something there.
Ammonium Phosphate is the stuff in reuseable heat packs so that checks out. Probably best kept at those minuscule concentrations
Yeah, I got confused for a bit, thinking, "Sourherners added poppers to their Coke?"
I came here to make sure I didn’t hear Greg talking about doing poppers, but he definitely just misspoke.
Im canadian chinese and drank a lot of hot coke in my childhood when i was sick. Mom would boil down some coke with slices of ginger or lemon (peel and all), ladle it up, and drink away to help with sore throats
Hot 7up is an old Irish mother’s remedy for upset stomach. Never been able to bring myself to try it. Old pubs in Ireland used to “mull” Guinness by putting a hot fire poker inside their pint. In rural areas the fires would’ve been fuelled with peat, so may have passed some smokey flavour into the Guinness. A departure from hot soft drinks but maybe worth a try!
We just used to use room temp, flat 7up or Sprite for that.
@@caesarsalad77 it was the same for me when I was a kid, but I do have peers that were given hot 7up. Can’t stand 7up in any guise, possibly because of its association with sickness.
I think Greg did an episode with the mulled Guinness actually
@@The_Jovian Really? I’ll have to seek it out
@@mojonaut I can't find it so maybe I'm mistaken but I so clearly remember him doing that 😅
Take 7-up, heat it up, and put Old Grandad into it.
Make 7-Grandad.
Fleenstones?!
There are Dutch licorice candies made by a company called Venco that are coated in ammonium chloride. Might be a bit salty for this application, but you could try dropping a couple of those in a hot coke to check the Ammonia Coke box
Licorice with ammonium chloride ("salmiak") is also very popular in Finland and other parts of northern Europe. It is a bit salty and very pungent - like very strong cough drops. Personally, I think it's horrible - but I know some people who do like it.
Oh I love these double zouts!
They're not even legal in most of the EU, if I remember correctly, but they're culturally significant enough in a few countries that those nations have an exception to the rule. Lol
@@brandonp7503 well I was able to get a double salted licorice candy in the UK before brexit.. was a total thing.... and yes tastes like what you expect to be pseudo salmiak
I'm surprised you didn't add Ango. I throw a couple of dashes in Coke for a change of pace. It really loves it.
Northern China, along the Siberian border... Winter. 1999.
Every restaurant we ate in there was a hotplate in the middle of the table with a metal 'teapot'; the first time we expected tea.
However it was Hot Coca Cola.
Loved it!
"Coke tales after dark" with Glen. 😅
the tasting notes captions for this episode are some of the best ever. this show always makes my day :)
And here I thought the best place to find a Hot Cuban in the states was south Florida
😂😂
Ahh yes, hot buttered 🐓 a new American classic 😅😂
it only took one time of drinking a bottle of coke that was left in my car during summer afternoon to realize I wouldnt like hot coke...but what I DO like is new HTD content! keep up the great work Greg
Tbh Coca-Cola with Coffee was my favorite coke drink to have ever come out. I used to get it all the time before it discontinued. Glad to see you ran with that inspiration!
Good news if you're okay with importing: Coke with Coffee is REALLY popular in Australia and wasn't discontinued there.
It was SO good!!!
I am one of those people in Utah and yes, it is stupid that the state government is still run by a bunch of out of touch octogenarians that still think we should be in prohibition. Hell, until five years ago, beer couldn't even be five percent at gas stations, it was like 3.1 or something. It's frustrating, to put it in PG terms.
I mean, here in NJ the idea that you’d sell beer in a gas station is absolutely insane. Gotta drive south of the mason dixon line to find that.
@@howtodrink not strictly speaking, we've got gas station beer up in Michigan also!
Not to mention, it’s impossible to purchase a bottle of anything above 5% on Sundays.
Nevada isn't too far of a drive ;)
@howtodrink bought 40s of bud at gas stations all over New York.
Another hot sodas series, nice! Been loving these little experiments. This line of inquiry is probably one with untapped potential, I wonder if you will ever find a soda that tastes better hot than not.
The coffee flavored coke was quite delightful. I was sad that it was discontinued.
That was surprisingly tasty.
Agreed. One of the oddest combinations that actually worked. Caramel was a pass for me, but the Original and Vanilla Coffee Coke was tasty. I can't believe it was discontinued after getting hooked on it.
I am one of your followers from Utah! I don’t actually drink but you are just so entertaining and delightful to watch plus I get new ideas for flavor combinations in my food and drinks.
I do enjoy hearing what would be an inner dialogue in your videos. It's a bit stream of consciousness crossed with verbalizing your though processes.
Mid episode I ran and grabbed my coke threw it in the microwave and immediately added an ounce of bumbu.... Probably my new favorite way to have a rum and coke.... PERFECT for the rainy day that it is today at the very least!
Art of the Drink talks about ammonia coke. It used spirits of ammonia, not the stuff you clean with. You can find ammonia carbonate powder (baker's ammonia) on the Zon, apparently it is a leavening agent. Not sure where to get spirits of ammonia, but perhaps there's a way to make your own.
Spirits of Ammonia is a pharmacy solution, but yeah Art of the Drinks article on it is very good. I was able to find a few places that sold it online with only a little bit of poking around.
My camping buddies and I are gonna try a few of these around the campfire on cold day!
Yeah this is a thing in Hong Kong, usually with lemon as a sore throat remedy but some people drink it casually.
Here in Ireland, when kids were sick, we used to give them hot lemon soda (over here called lemonade, and often red in colour). Not sure if this goes on much nowadays though.
I wonder if the Ammonia Coke you were talking about is something similar to like Salmiakki or salted licorice. It contains Sal Ammoniak, which is food grade ammonium chloride. Could be worth looking into if you wanted to explore this Ammonia Coke concept. IDK how easy it is to get ahold of food grade ammonium chloride but I think a good place to start is order some salted licorice and try to make like a syrup out of it and then use that. It'll add some licorice notes for sure but you will get that ammonia pungency.
Fantastic video! The wife and I will have to remember to try whipping up a batch of Hot Buttered Coke for our Christmas Party next year!
Coke and coffee is a good combo. One of my favorite cocktails I've come up with is coke and Kentucky coffee whiskey liquor
Coke and coffee is such an awesome combo, lots of potential there for sure.
With Coca Cola syrup being made to emulate a fortified coca leaf infused wine from Corsica, the Hot Buttered Coke&Rum having a grape/wine ting is just testament to the creator trying to get the flavor right.
Cheers for being open to mixological exploration!
Fun fact about calling that one Sundowner: the character Sundowner from MGR:R would definitely drink that drink because he's, uh... childlike. Yeah we'll go with that.
He's very in touch with his inner child!
Came here to comment. If you have a sore throat, gargle hot cocoa cola with the juice of a whole lemon in there and it will help clear up all of it. It’s incredible. Old family recipe. And delicious.
I love you personality and channel bro
This man out here experimenting!!
Hey Greg!
Big fan of the show.
Episode idea - Greg's favourite video games (drinks)!
Delve into some of your favourite video games from the past or present and pull out some interesting drinks and tell us a bit about why the game means so much to you or why you enjoyed it so much while trying to recreate or make it work.
I know you've delved into Fallout a few times but I'd love to hear some of your other game choices.
I love some of the freeform experimental stuff you do on the show and when you are excited about stuff, giving us background and history, it makes it all the better.
Keep up the excellent work, love the show, a highlight of my day when it comes out.
Best way to spend a Sunday morning.
Great video, not something I new was a thing.
I love that we're on part 3 (or 4?) of the Hot Dr. Pepper saga
Not sure if anyone else posted this, but Diet coke uses Aspartame, I'm diabetic and have been so for many years. Aspartame was one of t he few sweeteners I could use but I could not cook with it because prolonged exposure to high temperatures can cause Aspartame to lose its sweetness. I'm fairly certain that is why when you heated it up it caused it to lose it's sweetness. I could be wrong though. Love the show though, very interesting
Before the advent of sodium bicarbonate, ammonium bicarbonate was used as a leavening agent in baking. My mum comes from a Mennonite family and every year for Christmas my Grandmother, and now my mom, would make ammonia cookies also known as Hirschhornsalz (deer horn salt) Kuchen because the ammonium bicarbonate came from ground deer antlers.
Hot rum and coke with plenty of lemon juice is my favorite winter drink.
My first thought was an Old Fashioned sub a couple droppers of hot coke in for the bitters. Add a twist of orange.
My go to drink is orange Jameson/orange Jim Beam/ Grand Marnier with coke.
In Beijing, you can get in some restaurants a fun drink: hot ginger coke. You slice up ginger and add it to the coke, heat it up hot, and drink in the winter. It’s great! 好喝啊！
Will try!👍😅 TY!🎉
Just did up a hot buttered coke. Used Appletons estate signature, and angostura bitters because I don't have tiki bitters. I'm not from hot buttered rum country, but this drink is way better than it has any right to be. Very similar to my family's hot rum today recipe, but not as much molasses or lemon flavour.
Greg, you may be crazy, but it's not for enjoying this drink.
I remember making hot cola as a kid after reading about it in the Artemis Fowl series! I thought it was pretty good so I'm glad to see you agree :D
I had a drink I used to make when the Coca Cola with coffee was available, that I called a Monday Morning. Was a pint glass with ice, a can of the coke of your choice, though I preferred the dark roast one, 2 ounces of bourbon, and a dash of orange Angostura bitters
Yeah, I can't get stuff from Curiada in SE Kentucky either. So it ain't just Utah.
One of the Utah viewers reporting in
I'm one of those 15 people from Utah, getting anything but basic drinks is a pain in the ass
Just Rum makes a maplewood rested rum that I really like for hot buttered rum. Now you have me thinking I need to try it with hot coke.
The wife and I definitely need to find some Kuleana rum!
Hot citrus or fruit in a drink, other than apple as cider, never turns out well. At least in my experience.
Not even a Hot Toddy?
Root beer, Fanta, Sprite/7UP, Squirt, Mt. Dew... Not sure if they're nationwide, but around here we also have a black cherry soda, raspberry cream soda, I think I've seen melon sodas before, you could also see how you might be able to use lemonades/limeades/etc.
Just, all the things, because this is fascinating.
Hot Squirt, huh?
I was worried I was going to catch some blame for this episode coming into being because of my remark in your hot Dr. Pepper episode about the high school coke machine putting out hot sodas. Glad you enjoyed the experience, 'cause this video was fun to watch.
13:00 - Dunno if I would've called it a "Sundowner." Maybe "Uphill both ways" instead?
19:50 - Oh, that was Coke Blāk (yes, I checked the spelling). I never had a chance to try it. Didn't last very long either, at least in my area.
12:32 "We're gonna call this a Sundowner."
KIDS ARE CRUEL, JACK. AND I'M VERY IN TOUCH WITH MY INNER CHILD.
During a week at boy scout camp my parent or guardian came over to help for a couple days as was standard, of my left behind provisions were a number of cans of soda, left in the car for days.
He arrived and I decided I wanted a can of Coke. It was hot to the touch and I drank it. Drank as in went to chug as I did back in the day. I cannot decide which was more astonishing, the pain or the echoes of the belch that followed.
I'm with you in spirit and video but I cannot audibly relive it more than I have. luke warm
My condolences for your adolescent esophagus
Don’t know if you have it down in the US but here in Canada we have Maple Coke. Look for the Coke with the fleur de lis on the bottle.
This reminds me of the patron at the bar I worked at who always ordered a kahlua and coke
0:37 Hahahaha! cooking the bottle cap too, for adding extra metallic notes 😜🤣
EDIT: 1:38 HAHAHA! I was joking, I can't believe he said it too 🤣🤣, it's probably just me, that's funny, 100% called it 🤣
I tried a hot tequila sunrise at a Christmas market in Rüdesheim Germany. It was delicious, I highly recommend you try it.
buttered hot coca cola might be something I would try. I'm not usually a fan of cola, but I'd be willing to try it.
dont know if it was already said. couldnt find a comment so figured id let you know you did in fact say kuleana right its the hawaian word for responsibility, love their rums!!
For years, I've been a fan of hot Martinelli's with a cinnamon stick. If you give it 30-45 seconds in the microwave, it keeps its carbonation, and it's fabulous.
Warm (room-temperature) Coke is an acquired taste. But I acquired it in France during July '89. It's not my preferred Coke, but sometimes I get a hankering for it.
Greg messing around with ingredients is one of my favorite formats of HTD.
You should try making cocktails out of regional sodas like Moxie in Maine. I'm sure there are lots of interesting flavors out there.
I'm a type one diabetic, so I appreciate the diet recipes. :)
Good show. Please do a show on the drinks of Hawaiian Harry Yee. Thank You
Hot Coke with Lemon exists in Hong Kong! It's probably a bit less common nowadays but I remember it well as a kid....it was a treat!
Have you tried making drinks with Coca Cola Signature Mixers? Found out about them a few years ago, pity they're so hard to find because they're really good imo 😊
7:11 those of us in Massachusetts are also tragically forgotten 😢
I like adding my own flavourings to baseline Coke. Partly it's an availability thing - rural Ontario shopping powerrrrrr!
Lime juice, cherry kool-aid liquid mix, orange tang, etc.
I wonder if you went with the baseline Coke (hot or cold) and then added in higher quality variant flavourings (vanilla etc) whether they'd turn out better than blegh?
When I was in hong kong several places I went served coke hot with a preserved salted lemon inside of it.
around 5:39 when you're thinking of citrus fruits one thing actually kinda came to mind that might fit? now i have never seen a bergamot in the store but i think that might do it. maybe even just dunk a double-bergamot teabag in there for 10-20 seconds; i know this sounds like crazy talk but my mind is insisting 'dunno, might work'
as a utahn: THERE ARE DOZENS OF US!!!
Also we have a pretty good selection in our liquor stores (in comparison when I go to most of the ones in wyoming) worse comes to worse we stock up in Lee's in wendover. But yeah not being able to order a bottle to the door is annoying and it is blocked by the state not the provider.
I would be interested to see some Pepsi Nitro cocktails! I love Pepsi Nitro, the creamy smoothness of the nitro with the vanilla Pepsi is so good!
I enjoy an iced Coke & Kahlua every so often. I'll have to try that heated.
I'm curious how much of the change is flavour change is the result of the heat, and how much would continue if it were allowed to cool for a cold drink.
Ass pennies! I really hope that was a reference to one of my favorite Kids in the Hall skits😂
@howtodrink just read a few articles about ammonia coke. Apparently aromatic spirits of ammonia is used to make it. Check Art of Drink's article, "Ammonia Coke" by Darcy O'Neal for the recipe she used.
Now you should try making them the other kind of hot...as in spicy.
Diet Coke is popular because it’s an excuse to continually mainline caffeine (47mg per can) but convince yourself you’re not consuming anything. It’s about 30-40% of a cup of coffee per can. A lot of business people would consume about one an hour in addition to other caffeine sources to just continue to delay the caffeine crash.
Aromatic spirits of ammonia was a very ammonium hydroxide, water, some ethanol, and a bunch of flavorings like lemon oil, nutmeg, etc. if I understand it correctly the final mix was about 2-3% ammonia hydroxide and then you added 5-15ml to a entire glass of coke. So extremely low amounts. The acids the coke would quickly neutralize the ammonia probably giving you a brief whiff and then act mostly the same as bitters. Probably that similar tinge of formaldehyde that is in Dutch licorice. Completely harmless from as long as food/lab grade ammonium hydroxide is used (it’s used in a lot of foods anyway)
This is really interesting. I used to drink warm Frucade as a child, but I have never tried warm Coca Cola.
I had hot Coke 15 years ago during college in Chicago's Chinatown on the recommendation of a friend from Hong Kong!
From where I live, hot cola with ginger (slice or fresh juice) is basically homeo cold remedy
I know it was not popular but I actually really liked the coffee coke they have done it twice in my lifetime that I remember the first was called Coke Blak and then just a few years back they did a Coke with Coffee that was good but not as good as the Blak was. I have made a coke syrup from Mexican coke so I could mix that and a Coffee Sacharum together to make it after it was discontinued again. I have also mixed it with whiskey and rum too.
Bummed we didn’t get hot Vanilla Coke and coffee liquor for the Irish coffee…seems like that would have been a winner! I’ll try it for you :)
I blended some Bud Light Lime beer with Minute Maid Limeade mix along with some ice to create a tart alcoholic lemonade slushy.
(1) 12. FL OZ can of Minute Maid Limeade Frozen Concentrate
(4) 12. FL OZ bottles of Bud Light Lime Lager. I used 3 bottles, because that’s the max capacity of my blender, but it was pretty tart. 4 should be perfectly smooth, 6 should be mild enough for everyone.
I blended a few handfuls of ice, didn’t measure the exact amount. The total used should result in an icy slurry you can easily sip. Because I mixed everything with a blender, it also resulted in a pretty thick, foamy head which can result in a spilled overflow if you don’t carefully pulse the blender.
Alternatively, instead of using a blender, you could mix everything in a large pitcher then either put in a freezer or just mix crushed ice later, though I believe you’ll be missing the foam, which some people like. I’m personally indifferent.
Makes sense it'd be less sweet. I find things like coffee or hot chocolate to taste sweeter after they cool down, though not in a good way. It is subtle though
Seeing you be amazed by the thought of a Rum and Coke is crazy. Like, yeah man it's awesome. Why wouldn't it be?
Sweets with ammonia are actually very common in the north of europe. Called salty liquorice or salmiac
Ironically just sat down and am drinking a coke watching this!
