Isn't it strange? I do drink, but I don't want to drink too often. Sometimes I watch these videos instead of having a drink and I feel as though I've had one.
When I was 14, I got drunk on Rum. The next day, or three, I was so very sick. My folks were so proud of me. To this day I can't even smell Rum without remembering that episode. So, no Rum for me for 58 years...and no, my folks were NOT proud of me! My father made me work in the front yard, pulling weeds. in 90-degree heat for 6 hours. What a lesson I learned!
North American teen-age rite of passage. My poison was tequila. HORRIFIC memories, what few there were, and Mom’s cure was yard work in the midday sun!
Now, this one sounds like it's right up my alley! I love honey and I love cream. Rum is just fine with me. I know you talk about finding or trying different gins, as I'm one of those folks who think they hate gin lol. I'm going to try this one soon!
I think I might like that with a good cane-juice rum like a rhum agricole from, say, Martinique. Puerto Rican Bacardi always seems to me to have a faint scent of benzene (C6H6), familiar from my careless days in the organic chemistry lab over 40 years ago.
Maybe you need to do a "Cocktails after after dark" show where you do these twist experiment drinks from the after dark show that are thought up in the moment.
In the Thin Man movies, Nick and Nora are constantly drinking cocktail after cocktail, then going out and having adventures (and getting hangovers the next day). If they were drinking 21st century cocktails, they would end up hospitalized from alcohol poisoning, no adventures. It makes a lot more sense if each cocktail only had an ounce of liquor, rather than the 3+ many drinks have today. I'm a lightweight, so I usually make half size cocktails for myself. I think I'll stop calling them "half-size" and start saying "of historic proportions" 😄😄
One of my favorite cocktails, The Fourth Regiment, another old one, is only two ounces (one part American rye whiskey, one part sweet vermouth, one dash each orange bitters, celery bitters & Peychaud's). It always felt small in a modern 5 oz cocktail glass but it's pretty easy to scale up especially if you keep your bitters in Japanese dasher bottles or something similar where you have more control over the dash.
Okay...I liked it! I used my "country bee's honey" lol and spiced rum. I actually left the ice in and sipped. But...hey I like rum. Lol thank you to both of you! I live your honesty! And adding that you should try it if you like rum.
Jules I think you want to try a "milk and honey" with honey, cream, and BENEDICTINE with a topping of nutmeg. On a cold night by the fire there is nothing better!
I’d love to try more cocktails but I’d never have all this stuff at home and wouldn’t order off menu at a bar. What’s the smallest “capsule bar” basics you’d need to start off with?
Start with a spirit you like and look for simple 2 or 3 ingredient cocktails with that. Then build out from there. Check out some of the basic bar videos from anders erickson as well as steve the bartender. Also shake and strain app is really good to help figure out what you can make and what to buy next.
@@jono6379 Yup, start with sprints you like. You will never find Scotch, or bourbon/whiskeys in my cabinets. Tequila, rum, vodka and a variety of liqueurs, sure. And you acquire as need.
I love the Pink Lady cocktail. I've had the White Lady cocktail at WhiteChapel in San Francisco as they have tons of different gins but no brandy, however, both cocktails use egg whites NOT cream. I don't think I want either of them with cream.
We did a version waaay back in 2012: ruclips.net/video/wp6ZV3jg_hc/видео.html It's a tough one to make since one of the ingredients is no longer made and debate rages on if there is a suitable substitute.
Long question follows... My great uncle was in the RAF in WWII, shot down, taken prisoner, ultimately traded, then moved to Chile, then to Don Mills. He passed away a while ago. At Christmas he would make a cocktail he brought back from Chile which he called "VINE-ah." He made some comments that made me think it was actually the spanish word "vahine." I've searched and can't find anything about this. I think this coctail included port, creme de cacao, maybe brandy, maybe vermouth, and certainly had meringue on top. Any clue, oh master of cocktail history? Cheers!
The milk and honey flavor combo isn’t something you really see that often anymore, and when you do it’s indexed specifically to breakfast, so that’s probably why it strikes some as a weird drink
I'd probably do coconut cream, with the flavored rum maybe pineapple give it a Pina colada feel EDIT: I made this after watching the video with Captain Morgan Spiced Rum and it was pretty good 👍 I liked it but I like Rum so maybe that's why.
Oh yeah! I always put vanilla in my whipped cream, but substitute the rum and use honey for sweetness instead of sugar. I think you're on to something!
Interesting flavor is not what I want to be questioning in a honey with questionable places for bees to forage. 😂 it could be a radioactive sludge from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!
The way of the old cocktails seem to have been lost in time. I really like the idea of having multiple small drinks so you can experience more different tastes. If you drink to get drunk you can skip the whole cocktail bit all together and drink straight hard liquor 🤪
Strictly as a non professional consumer of cocktails it seems like this recipe is calling out for a dry shake to whip and thicken the cream and to more fully dissolve the honey before adding the ice. Just my $.02.

Loved this one. Poor Jules. She looked so pained. Ha Ha. Thank you for posting this one on your Community page. -Marilyn
This was hysterical! So politely grossed out!
I don’t know why, since I don’t drink at all, but I really enjoy these cocktail videos.
Same. My wife and I do enjoy an occasional mocktail, though.
I feel the same way
Ditto ...
Me too. I think it's the history lesson that comes with the cocktail 🍸
Isn't it strange? I do drink, but I don't want to drink too often. Sometimes I watch these videos instead of having a drink and I feel as though I've had one.
I just made this drink on a lark, expecting to hate it, but I liked it! Oh no! I might have to have another!
It does need a garnish. I think a little purple violet would be lovely. When they're not in bloom, a candied violet ought to fit the bill.
Hmmm, I think I’d add the honey, cream, and rum to my tea. That might be yummy! 😉
I agree!
Oooo sounds great
yes, please!
Love to see people talking about Trader Vic! And this is a great recipe
"Less egregious" is exactly what I look for in a cocktail. lol
😅
You guys are great...I'll say it again and again! Cheers!
I knew from the expression on your faces after the first little sip that this one was a no go for you two. 🍷🍷
Omg both of you looking down at the ground while tasting them 😂
Love the stories...

Rum is delicious and I think that you need to move from thay
I'd like to see more small cocktails, I'm not mad at it

Congratulations on getting honey to disperse in a cold drink. Milk honey and rum - hmmmm. I do like rum so I might give it a try.
I'm not a hard alcohol drinker. A glass of wine with a meal is my jam. But I do like the history and chit chat that goes with these videos.
I might try this one. I love rum and honey.
Hi there 😄 you've a gorgeous picture on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say hi!! I hope my compliment is appreciated …
loved this omg ♥♥♥♥♥
4:23 The expression on Jules' face is priceless!

I wonder if Cointreau were added would it taste like a creamsicle?
This with bumbu rum would be great
Oh man I really want to like this drink! The ingredients sound delicious! How about spiced rum?
You might like it. I did!

He did a “stocking your home bar” video, I just watched it. If you search the channel you should find it.

So the Bee's Kiss was not the bee's knees....
(Sorry)
Nope - great pun, but the Bee's Knees cocktail is way better: ruclips.net/video/Ktwcn0BCHmY/видео.html
Leave out the rum and pour the cream and honey over strawberries.
I love the Pink Lady cocktail. I've had the White Lady cocktail at WhiteChapel in San Francisco as they have tons of different gins but no brandy, however, both cocktails use egg whites NOT cream. I don't think I want either of them with cream.
Julie, you look so pretty with those pearls 🥰
I went through a bunch of Trader Vic's recipes for a personal project and it surprised me how many of his were not very tiki
"I'll kill that cat!" (from "Dinner for one") Jills face after tasting the drink - absolutly no poker face
Glen, any chance of covering the classic James Bond Vesper Martini?
We did a version waaay back in 2012: ruclips.net/video/wp6ZV3jg_hc/видео.html It's a tough one to make since one of the ingredients is no longer made and debate rages on if there is a suitable substitute.
I would give this a go, as I like rum even though I'm more of a gin drinker like Julie.

I’m with Jules on this. Much prefer gin to rum and don’t like dairy in my alcohol . Egg whites are ok tho
I have Trader Vic's Pacific Island Cookbook from 1968
Replace the Rum with Gin
You could probably re spec this to make it better. The flavours make sense.
Why double strain?
"Less egregious."
Hi there 😄 you've a gorgeous picture on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say hi!! I hope my compliment is appreciated .
Eggnogish is what I thought seeing the recipe.
Is this just the cocktail from Guys and Dolls?
I could see a rum flip with honey instead but might need darker rum.
Could you do mass production of that Squozen cola?
Was thinking of making this one -- until I got to the end of the video. lol
Give it a try. I actually really liked it. I just used Bacardi's gold and it worked for me.
The milk and honey flavor combo isn’t something you really see that often anymore, and when you do it’s indexed specifically to breakfast, so that’s probably why it strikes some as a weird drink
It's also nice before bedtime. (Milk and honey, hold the booze.)
I'd probably do coconut cream, with the flavored rum maybe pineapple give it a Pina colada feel EDIT: I made this after watching the video with Captain Morgan Spiced Rum and it was pretty good 👍 I liked it but I like Rum so maybe that's why.
Us in America.... Yeah we can't get Cuban rum easily.
I always prefer Cuban rum over any Puerto Rican
I wonder if this would make a good whipped cream for dessert? Obviously, it would need to be tweaked.
Oh yeah! I always put vanilla in my whipped cream, but substitute the rum and use honey for sweetness instead of sugar. I think you're on to something!
on a gingerbread or a spice cake
@@JeanneLugertLadyTatsLace there we go! 🙌🏻
Hmmm, interesting. Honey, cream, and rum make great combination in cakes, but however doesn't taste good in cocktail form.
Interesting flavor is not what I want to be questioning in a honey with questionable places for bees to forage. 😂 it could be a radioactive sludge from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!
This definitely is an odd one. The reaction is not surprising.
The way of the old cocktails seem to have been lost in time. I really like the idea of having multiple small drinks so you can experience more different tastes. If you drink to get drunk you can skip the whole cocktail bit all together and drink straight hard liquor 🤪
Cocktail tapas?
so you can put honey directly in a cocktail without melting it first
you should do a Ramos gin fizz at some point.
Nice tan. I will never try this.
Give Julie a version with gin instead of rum and see if the cream still turns her off OR if she likes that version.
I think I will just stick to Gin, grapefruit juice, salt.
It would be interesting to see this made with gin. Lol.
In the past they drank for the flavor as well as eventual effect. Too many people now are just going for effect and getting drunk
Idk why I connected this to trader joes
LOL!
Id do coconut cream & Maple 🍁 syrup... Canadian whiskey....not a honey fan. Need a new name🍁🍁🍁 Canadian Kiss ?
Strictly as a non professional consumer of cocktails it seems like this recipe is calling out for a dry shake to whip and thicken the cream and to more fully dissolve the honey before adding the ice. Just my $.02.
Looks like something you'd see in Pron...
Tangent: tell Julie her top is cute and the necklace accessory is perfect. 🫰
