haha loved that smile while shaking! Felt like I´m at Steves Channel!
Yes! This is exactly when I started reading the comments. It must have been a call out to Steve. I think Steve has plenty of prompts to smile on set. Not because he’s grumpy - just because he’s so focused.
2:04 there is that smile, oh my! Beautiful one, Ste... Leandro!
Lol, I thought the same thing
Probably gotten it from steve
Did you smash all of those when you were done shooting?
I really like how you make the short description and history of each cocktail before you make it. I live in Munich and have made many cocktails at my home bar for friends, and I have learned some from you. I appreciate the work you do and give it to us. Thanks.
Louche is a word that is used to describe something that isn't clear. Basically it's the word shady in english and it also can be used to describe someone with the same meaning as shady. It also mean a big spoon for liquids used in the kitchen...
Dude, who drinks all these cocktails? I would like to volunteer myself.
I don't drink but I'm looking to start!!😂 Your channel came up and I love how you explain the history of the cocktail. Just subscribed today. I wish well.
Thanks for subscribing, hopefully you'll find a lot of good info here :)
Another fantastic video. Thank you Leo and Marius!
When I was in Puerto Rico, I had a drink that was essentially a modified vieux carre. Swap the whiskey for a brown rum, simple syrup for the Benedictine, and chocolate bitters for the angostura and peychauds bitters. It was served in a glass with a chocolate covered rim, and an orange twist. I highly recommend it!
Haha That sounds good but when you swap every ingredient for another that's not just modified. It's completely different. Cheers.
2:03 Leandro taking a page from Steve the Bartender hahaha
Love these videos. Thank for the education!
Thanks so much for these easy-to-make videos. I have made a small bar at home and enjoy learning with your videos. Lots of respect and love to you.
Another great rum for the Jungle Bird is Cruzan Black Strap. The molasses flavor goes really well with the Campari and the pineapple. Try it sometime!
Yessir! Already did a video on it :)
Love these compilation videos when you make them, plus the channel in general has a great mix of updates. Bravo sirs!
Amazing video. Can't tell you how many times I have watched this.
Between this channel, Lui Fernandes and Anders Erickson’s channels, I am in heaven every weekend making fun, new drinks for me and my friends!!
awesome. That's why we do this!
Wow! The Humble Brag is the first 2:1 martini I really enjoyed. Great drink! Well done!
Love it ❤
I'm binge watching all of these.
thx for all this beautiful video
I love the copper tool set
Glad to know that I’m not the only one packing as much ice on top of a finished cocktail as possible before serving.
I finally tried the pink lady, and it's my new favorite drink! I love this channel ^^
Thanks for another great video! Made the Pink Lady tonight and loved it. Would like to see some fruit whiskey smashes for the spring - maybe a whiskey peach smash.
parabéns ...fantásticos todos os drinks !!!!!!
NICE, and I am so looking forward to trying your Humblebrag just as soon as I get some grapefruit bitters... thank you.
Finally got myself some straws from Surf Side Sips! Absolutely in love with them
Anthony Anderlionis I’m glad you like them! Cheers!
Love the Death in the afternoon
Wow, great video!
I want an Educated Barfly shirt with a the backside of a hand about to come down on another hand holding a sprig of mint with a fanciful font that says "The Ol' Slappy Poo!"
Don't forget "ye ol' crushy pants".
Oh man, just made the Rio Grande Sour tonight for the first time and absolutely loved it!
Another great video
Love all of your videos. The occasional banter and often sassy attitude gives your channel so much character! Love it
Great bartender and recipes that are really good
I love all of your video and make me more like stay home during pandemic and enjoy homemade coctails. thanks and cheers 😘😘💐
I love me a jungle bird, before i had that I never liked campari, but the jungle bird was perfect to introduce me to campari and now i love almost all cocktails that use it.
Just subscribed 2 minutes ago, watching volume 1, and here we are.
Thanks
OMG!!! You crack me up!!! You tasted everything you made I think. Lol!!! "The Haappy Barfly"!!! 🤣👍🏽😜😁
And. I loved all your info. Thank you and yes I liked and subscribed. ❤️
thanks for watching :)
I do the mojito with soda, but I drink it on the rocks instead of crushed ice.
I like shaking it with the mint in the shaker, so you get all the oils from the mint. Double strain in a longdrink glas with ice cubes, top with soda add 1-2 nice limewheels in the glas and a big mint bouquet (sorry my French is horrible, I hated it in school). The drink will look really green and taste minty, tard, but balanced and you will get the Cuban rum, the soda makes it really fresh.
2oz rum, 1oz lime (you can put the pressed lime in the shaker to get the oils in, but you do not need to), 22.5ml up to 1oz simple syrup, 8 mint leaves
i always like your little history lessons
It's very important program. I like it very much.
i just made a slightly modified version of that strawberry fix and it was so good! probably top ten but I always rate cocktails I have tried recently higher than ones I tried a little bit ago
Well what’s the modification
That whip shake. Too funny.
aww, i want the pink lady one ! :)
gotta have to try some new cachaça drinks, I have a few artisanal cachaças at home to have fun.
watch out there Leandro, your Bostonian is shining through there with the JaegaMeista
Before I even saw this video I’ve been using grapefruit bitters in my Martinis and I love it. Humblebrag FTW!
Yo, liked and subscribed for the Harris Wittels shout out!
1:34.... What you said is exactly why I always crush my lemons and limes with the syrup First, then I add Mint on top of it so the mint can be better infused with all the oils and I can open up the leaves of the mint better through Muddling. This method I used always gets good Feed back.
In Cuba they tend to add Angostura bitters to the Mojito as well. At least they did, when I was there..
Tried the Pink Lady tonight and it was fantastic
My Pink Lady recipe is 1-1/2 gin, 1/2 grenadine and an egg white. Might have to experiment with lemon and apple jack.
Isn’t it amazing how important that ice is?

11:32 You are correct, the original cocktail did not include soda, but as you said the original was not called a Mojito. Mojito became popular in the mid 20th century and there was soda around by that time. Anyway, things evolve over time ofc, and also there are a million variations of each drink out there, but I still like my Mojito with soda. Nice video!
So great full for the work you and Marius put into this show. It is a great show for lesser experienced bartenders but also for more advanced bartenders.
I have been having some trouble with the jungle bird for a while as I feel like the pineapple overpowers the other flavours in the drink too much. How do you make sure that this does not happen? I just bought a goslings black seal rum for dark n stormy, that might be a shout in the jungle bird right?
great video
Great drinks, fantastic video, thank you. How to you make a fresh raspberry syrup?
12:33- Jungle Bird
.5 ounce lime juice
.5 ounce simple syrup
1.5 ounces pineapple juice
.75 ounces Campari
1.5 ounces dark rum
Ice
Shake
Double strain into old fashioned glass.

The magic of editing, you always get a perfect wash line
Nope, all these were done in one takes, no redo's on the wash line. Promise :) We just cut the video or it would as long as The Irishman.
@@TheEducatedBarfly haha I'm just teasing, great video!
Love this thanks. My partner and I are heading to NYC at the end of the month. Looking for cocktail bar recommendations. I will be hitting the Dead Rabbit for sure but was wondering if there were some hidden gems in Manhattan?
Should probably ask Greg on How to Drink, he's from New York metropolitan New Jersey.
Very nice line up. 😋 btw the Rio grande sour in the show notes show lemon 🍋 wedge. I swear it was orange 🍊
Correct, that was a test. You passed!
The Educated Barfly i am always surprised how well I do for tests I never study for. 😉
Probaby the best channel on cocktails around.
Was wondering if you could do a 5 best gin or 10 easy prohibition/long forgotten cocktails that are vegan? Keep up the great work!
Thanks! Yeah I’ve got a bunch of videos in the pipeline and I can definitely do some easy prohibition cocktails glad your digging the content
I'm new at this and the favorite one I've made so far is
8 mint leaves
4 shakes of fee black walnut bitters
.75 oz lime juice
.75 oz peppermint ginger syrup (add a tea bag when you make simple syrup) you could probably just use simple syrup
.75 oz plume and petal cucumber vodka
2 oz roku gin
Shake and pour over ice
Garnish with orange peel and mint
I could probably simplify it using cucumber gin but let me know what you think
That is an awesome cocktail for anyone, never mind being new to this! Keep it up!
so informative for an aspiring mixologist, i suggest you try out the alcohol mist by vapshot
How do you make the raspberry syrup? I think my wife would like the Cosmo? Thanks for some great drinks
Excellent! This is one to save to watch a few more times. Have you guys ever thought of adding a printable recipe?
Yeah but I also think it’ll work against our views maybe. What do you think?
The Educated Barfly ok good point
The real tutelage though comes from viewing your videos. The recipe is merely a reference
Jim Fererro I’ll give it a day or two then add time stamps youtube won’t allow me enough characters in the description box to publish all the recipes below the video
On that last one, a small sprinkling of black pepper on the muddled strawberries would make it taste more strawberry-ish. Sounds weird, but it works!
Killed it with the orange on the Vieux Carre! The traditional lemon does not compare to this one.
Hey man thanks for all your videos
I’m from Colombia y we drink Aguardiente me not so much now.
Where can I send you a bottle for you to try?
Love the channel just subscribed, especially after the “how to make clear ice” video. Also where do you get pebble ice? Stupid question I’m sure but here we are 🤷🏻♂️😂
We make our own, with the Opal Nugget Machine amzn.to/2XfQG2c It's a little pricey, but it's awesome. You can buy pebble ice from Sonic, and we've heard you can from Chick-fil-A, but we have not tried.
Which absinthe are u using? Also the abv?
i love your videos well done one again.. Can i ask yoour crashed ice machine brand?
We don't have a crushed ice machine, if we need we usually use a lewis bag from Barfly. For our Pebble ice we use an Opal machine, and it's really good amzn.to/2SMl6Ev (this is the GE branded machine)
@@TheEducatedBarfly thanks you re the best
I love cocktail history, so I have to point out that the recipe for the Vieux Carré was actually first published in 1937 in “Famous New Orleans Drinks and How to Mix ‘Em” by Stanley Clisby Arthur. He did credit to Bergeron for creating it, but that obviously had to have happened in the early 1930s.
Finally!!!!! Damn dude
You, Steve the bartender & cocktail chrmistry, along with Bruce from (bar talk & cocktails) need to collaborate the four horseman of cocktail making. Make it happen
Great video! Guys I would have a question. What do yo do with the used stirring ice? I mean I could just throw it away, but when I'm having a party I need to fill my small freezes literally to the top with ice. So my idea is I just "wash" the used ice with cold water to melt the flavors from the outer layer. What's your opinion? Completely stupid, or can work? Thanks
The parts of the video where you taste the cocktails are like **mm** !
Need me some of that humblebrag
No Cuba Libre ? Thats the one I make the most, just recently got into "home bartending". My favorite drink being the rum and coke, I figured I would do it well.
I think the Cosmopolitan is an extremely under appreciated cocktail, caused by Sex and the City; I just made it for the first time with my last 1,5oz of fresh raspberry syrup and it’s a really gin forward and nicely balanced cocktail!
Summer isn’t around yet, and I know full well that it isn’t a cocktail, but if you had any recipes or tips for making a really good sangria I think that would make for an awesome video.
we'll do a sangria this year
3:25 That lemon juice you mentioned and it's with sugar or without sugar..
Omg the Steve parody was real 😂😂😂😂😂🤣
I’m always missing one
Hi Leandro! I'd really like to make a Jungle Bird but it's not that easy to get specific dark rums where I am. What might be some other recommended brands other than the Coruba that you used in this video? Thanks again for the awesome content!
What about Appleton 12 or even Reserve a nice Jamaican rum is a wonder in a jungle bird!
The Educated Barfly Perfect! I can definitely get that here (Kuala Lumpur by the way!)
Any chance you have a link to where you got the glass for the Whiskey Smash?!!
It’s a Baccarat Crystal glass. Got it as a gift, it’s like 150 dollar glass
@@TheEducatedBarfly It's really beautiful. Love the channel I'm all over the raspberry simple!
I cant find an amburana cachaca! What could be a good substitute?
what can u substitute rasperry syrup in 1934 cosmo? can u just add the juice or sth else?
could you add an egg white to the strawberry fix?
i see a guy make drinks, i like simple as that🍹
I'd be super interested to see you do a drink featuring Eau Claire Parlour Gin, it's got a wonderful botanical profile that's unlike anything I've ever had, and I happen to live (sort of) near the distillery. Local pride aside it's a fantastic gin and I'm sure you could have fun with it!
A really useful video! Thank you for doing this job!
Anyway, I have a question, are u gonna make some video about cocktails with a limit of 21° or 25° abv?
Oh that’s a great idea! Yeah why not?
@@TheEducatedBarfly Great, so I'll stay tuned!
Kiniji's Dream please do may take a little to get design the episode but I think making some session cocktails is a wonderful idea!
Over kill with the ice
Hey, has Marius ever told you about the Norwegian method of selling alcohol, Vinmonopolet? Just curious, as a fellow Norwegian.
Nope. Sounds like he should though
I've told you this several times Leandro...
Would be interesting to see your opinion on this
Might be a bit late to this party but the Hemingway cocktail is the most Hemingwayest you could get… adding lots of alcohol to alcohol 😀😀
@The Educated Barfly In drinks like Death in the Afternoon
is there a difference if you add wine first then spirit?
Yeah there is if you put your non alcoholic drinks first then the booze it'll just penetrate everything so it's extra boozy. But if you put the booze first on contact that will allow the booze to dilute. Plus adding ice as well will cause that dilution which will allow your drink to be easier to drink as opposed to soda first then the booze etc etc. If not give other a try see which one is more agreeable with you
The ol’ “slappyboo”
I hit the subscribe and like as you asked, now watching, better be impressed lol Naw I know it’s gonna be great. Whiskey smash, great call.
Thanks !
Thanks !
Wouldn't it be peel side up as in the peel is facing you, not the bottom of the cup? Or are you putting the peel facing the bottom of the cup?
