Fact: In Central America put the skin and heart of the pineapple in a pot with a bit of sugar and cinnamon stick and you can make pineapple water, for hot tea or cold. Cheers!
I made something very similar to the last one a couple nights ago! Instead of muddling Thai basil, I used a cinnamon-infused simple syrup. That was pretty darn good too.
Bru... I've been watching your blogs & drinking my dinner. I'm really impressed, you got a new follower. Saludos desde Ciudad de México (My greetings from Mexico City).
This channel has become my most recent quarantine obsession. I spent this past Sunday juicing a watermelon and making Spicy Flamingos for my family. Thanks for the awesome content!
You can make "watermelon" ice cubes with the watermelon that you do not juice. Just cut into cubes and place in silicone ice cube trays to keep them from freezing together. Makes for an excellent snack in your glass after finishing your Spicy Flamingo.
Love these videos! Really helped me get started making coctails. Especially your past video on starting a home bar, everything i needed for basic coctails was on that list and its super fun to make them!
I almost came here with a smartass comment saying that brandy is a whiskey then I realized that I was thinking of bourbon and I almost made a fool of myself
A good sipping tequila is all I need. Forget everything else, a glass of corzo anejo with one rock is a glorious drink. Bonus points if you grill that pineapple first. I just made some bourbon pina coladas last night with bourbon, coco lopez, lime juice, grilled pineapple, and a small dash of cream. The grilled pineapple really stood up to the bourbon without being too tart.
We just made ourselves some tequila thai-napples with some fresh Thai basil out of our garden. Been lookin for a good use for it. These are some of the best drinks weve ever had. 👍👍
If you have the pineapple scraps and the pulp from the nut bag. You can make a very tasty pineapple infused sugar syrup by making up your basic recipe for a sugar syrup solution and adding the pineapple pulp and skin. Let’s simmer but not boil for about 10 to 20 minutes and then strain out the pulp and skin the same way you straight out the pulp from the juice. It has a slightly different taste to pure pineapple juice and sweeter because of the sugar and very good to use in... well cocktails and a home-made soda
As this is your most recent video I propose this here (although it doesn't quite fit) I recently rewatched your gin Tonic viedo and saw you usind an elderflower tonicwater that gave me the Idea to try something with elderflower as well... As the elder is blooming here right now I used elderflower and put quite a lot of it into vodka (probably works with all spirits, I chose vodka due to its lack of taste) The elderflower gives it quite a nice taste, and the elderflower vodka can be used to vary the taste of a lot o cocktails. I hope you read and try this
I think it was Alton Brown who recommended 'juicing' a watermelon with a stick blender by cutting a round hole in the watermelon just large enough to get the blender in, putting the blender in, and blending it right inside the rind.
Did you Turman if the pineapple is ripe or not grab one of the leaves from the crown and pull… If the leaf pulls out cleanly with a very faint snap then it is ripe. If you have difficulty pulling it out and it requires more of a tug then it is still green and if it pulls out with only a touch the pineapple is overripe.
Thank you for this one I have cheap tequila and other Palomas Margaritas or mixing it with sharkleberry fin Kool aid I never really know what to do with the stuff
To get a better result with the Tequila Thai-napple I guess you could nitro muddle the thai basil or at least blend it to get most of the flavour out. Dave Arnold's Liquid Intelligence has extensively covered this topic which I think would give an amazing result in this case! Cheers!
yep, I've done some nitro muddling before. Wouldn't really fit the simple theme of the video but blender muddling would have been a fun taste test comparison
Probably because the anglicized spelling looks just like a middle-eastern Tajine which is pronounced the way he said it. Needless to say that Mexico isn't the middle east, but that's probably where the confusion came from.
Your comments I have seen, I shall pronounce it TA-HEEN

Hahaha thanks for getting ahead of the comment storm.
"Grab a rocks glass and fill it with a couple um... rocks" Beautifully spoken sir.
Most people hoard toiletpaper and flour. Nick horads agave syrup
Great video, just a heads up, Tajin is pronounced “tah-heen”
DOUCHE
Jerk!
I mean you aren’t wrong ! Better to be corrected than pronouncing it wrong every time.
@@RavioliSquirrel lol he was pretty polite about it. Giving information isnt hurtful.
Adam Beers yea ok bud
Pronounces Julio right, messes up Tajin
Ta-heen?
@@scrunchycrumbundles8013 Yup! Means "built of constant smoke" in Mayan!
Isaac Kracoff that’s how I usually pronounce it but other industry people look at me like a weirdo. Thanks for the translation!

5 cocktails with Take Five in the background. Easily the best pun of the whole series.
“Leave the severed head for the intimidation factor.” Lol
Really love how this guy express exactly the same after tasted all kinds of drinks...lol
Good job, keep doing what your doing!
"Tequila Mockingbird"
Did he just....?
That's his specialty
He's Tequilaing us softly
Instantly demonetized.
Because apparently 5:36

Don’t mind me, just here to help the algorithm.

Great selections Nick!! I do love me a delicious Tequila old fashion. Your recipe is spot on!
Just tried the Tequilla Thai-napple. Tastes great can only reccoment
Love Thai Basil! It works so well with sweetness acidity and a great alternative to the more common Basil!
Come for the recipes, stay for the dad jokes
"Call me 'The Fugees' because 'Tequila Me Softly'" 3:35
SO. GOOD.
Each of these cocktails look like they'll come in handy this summer! I can't wait to make fresh watermelon and pineapple juice - sans nut milk bag!
You’re the best bartender RUclips channel I’ve seen in a long time. I love it.
Nick: the history of this drink is-
Me, who found this channel through The Modern Rogue: apocryphal?
You've pun my heart, sir
I typically just drink tequila on the rocks with a little hint of lime but these look dope
Love these videos! Really helped me get started making coctails. Especially your past video on starting a home bar, everything i needed for basic coctails was on that list and its super fun to make them!
"Tequila me softly" 😂😂😂
Tequila mockingbird
Tajín IS THE BEST!! Thank you for respect that 😍😍🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽 my favorite cocktail is “El Vampirito”
9:08~ Well well, Nick. Your pun brain just went “blank-o”.
Really enjoy the professionalism and attention to detail in your videos 👍
Flamingo is something you could do in a picture and serve at a party.
Would be fun !
Do vodka next please
Ah, my prayers have been answered. This is a happy day.
You had me at Take Five...
I love love love a tequila old fashioned with chocolate bitters 😍😍
I'm gonna try that fire trick at home, but I'll probably end up burning down my kitchen
Just make sure you film it!
It's super cool and works very well when you get how you have to squeeze the peel. Don't get it too thin!
I’m gonna call straws sippy cylinders from now on
As usual, gonna go and suggest you do brandy/cognac next! Great vids!

Nick, I see the Amor Y Amago button that Sother gives out! Last pre-covid outing in NYC. Another great video!

Loving this series and feeding the algorithm!
I did the Paloma and Thai napple, and that last one is fabulous

I wish we could get all those tequilas in Australia
The paloma pun was three in one breath. You should be really proud of yourself
Tried the Tommy margarita with a smoked tequila. Delicious!
Add a couple drops of saline and watch the flavors really come alive! 😜
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
That Thai-napple sounds like genius, Thai Basil has got amazing flavour, never thought about using it in a drink.
Whenever I encounter the word "TEQUILA" it reminds me of that music from the '50s
Oh man, I love the channel, but that “tah-jeen” pronunciation really got to me 😂 “Tah-heen”
He once pronounced it "Tay jin"
You can also gently tug on a leaf if it pulls easily it’s ripe
been a fan for quite sometime. your flavor blaster has touched Philippine soil. I also have a channel dedicated to this wondeful profession. cheers
Great video. You keep giving me idea's.
I think it was Alton Brown who recommended 'juicing' a watermelon with a stick blender by cutting a round hole in the watermelon just large enough to get the blender in, putting the blender in, and blending it right inside the rind.
I made the Oaxaca old fashioned just now, and it was amazing! Like tequila candy!
I'm live in Thailand.... and have a beach bar I'm totally trying the thainapple tomorrow....tks !
Google translate fucked you over.
Vodka plis!
What is your education background? Any culinary training? Love your methods, one hobbiest to another!
Also good if you wanna get funky: Tommy's Margarita with acid-adjusted orange juice!
I’ve been enjoying the Rocks brand of tequila Termana. Tasty and not too expensive. Gonna have to try it with these.
Great quality videos!
Did you Turman if the pineapple is ripe or not grab one of the leaves from the crown and pull… If the leaf pulls out cleanly with a very faint snap then it is ripe. If you have difficulty pulling it out and it requires more of a tug then it is still green and if it pulls out with only a touch the pineapple is overripe.
Tequila slammer
I always make it when i watch Hardboiled. Maybe you could give pointers on how to make it fizz extra like in the films opening?
The Tommy Margarita is fantastic. Next I need to find the "salt/spice" you used
I'll never say no to more of your nut milk bag, Nick.
I make my Palomas with half grapefruit juice and half Grapefruit Soda. Best of both worlds
Have you tried partnering the Thai basil with other spirits? If so, how did that work? Another great video!
The watermelon juice is also a great thing for a daiquiri !
Thank you for this one I have cheap tequila and other Palomas Margaritas or mixing it with sharkleberry fin Kool aid I never really know what to do with the stuff
5:23~ 8:10~ #NutMilkBag
Could you do a video about Bloody Mary's? I know most Bartender's dislike making them, but please consider it. Thanks
You have completed the long island iced tea with rum,vodka, tequila and gin
this episode had some of the worst puns , love it
Oh damn he really pulled out that E-40
I've been enjoying the Black Russian a lot lately, so how about vodka cocktails next?
Suffering through the puns to try a new drink or 2. Worth it? Time will tell.

how fitting. its my 20th birthday today and i bought some bourbon rum and tequila. thanks!
What is the best thing to mix with tequila?
Where do you get those juice containers he used for the watermelon juice
I have a bottle of Taramana tequila. What is a good cocktail to use this one in? I had to try it because it’s The Rock’s tequila!
Mi Casa Tequila!!! Awesome stuff
Yo, the pineapple one, haven't tried it yet, but doesn't it look like it would really benefit in having some peppermint?
amazing drinks! I wonder, can you switch tequila in flamingo to mescal? Smoky notes with watermelon sounds grate.
definitely!
Say it with me now, tah-heen. Tajin. :)
Can you make an accurate depiction of the Rosewater Ricky as mentioned in the Big Bang Theory? Or the grasshopper from The Big Bang Theory?
Where did you get that glass bottle you stored your pineapple juice in
I think a thrift shop
What are those bottles with glass seal?
i just made a tommys margarita as i9 was watching this video
Great vid! Small note, its pronounced "ta-heen" I've never heard anybody pronounce it the way you did but i guess that just comes from living in socal
I'm glad that I'm not the only one that was bothered by that
Probably because the anglicized spelling looks just like a middle-eastern Tajine which is pronounced the way he said it. Needless to say that Mexico isn't the middle east, but that's probably where the confusion came from.
Here I am, slapping sunny D with the cheapest vodka I can find....
Please, can You do vídeo about peruvian pisco
Have you ever tried José Cuervo, Nick? 🤔
Do the Krusty the crown cocktail:
Champaign + Slim Fast
Am I the only one who just realised that the song in the background is "Take Five" from The Dave Burbeck Quartet, but slitghly altered?
