Onions in coffee's a very, *layered* concept. Some might call it appeeling..
I dunno, the whole idea makes me cry.
@@ross-carlson There are so many layers to it though!
A fine ogre drink.
Any way you slice it, it’s still a blooming novelty
It's all ogre now
I saw the word "onion" pop up as a notification forna Morgan Eckroth video and had a mini heart attack
Fair
If you're already making a syrup, I wonder if you can go for a caramelized onion latte....
I was gonna say, I could almost see my way to a really creamy, buttery, caramelised onion latte but green onions no thanks 😅
Awesome. That’s the only way this would work.
That's exactly what I thought when I read the title. I've heard carmelized onion in like vanilla ice cream is pretty good, I could totally see something like a carmelized onion syrup latte or sweet cream cold brew working
That honestly sounds real good and I hate that I like that idea as much as I do 😂
Recently I toasted some green onion in the oven and it came out so freakin delicious.... that might go better with coffee
I love how the video just got gradually darker the longer into these experiments you got 😂
It was an omen of the terrors to come
Don't tell Starbucks about this. They'll add it to the menu next to the olive oil stuff
I’m kind of here for an entirely savory coffee menu
Starbucks version... onion powder with a squirt of coffee flavor.
Hear me out, sautéed onion espresso
Honestly, French onion soup made with a bit of espresso powder sounds great
As a person who only likes coffee when it’s drowned in sugar and milk, I fear that day (says the man who drinks tea more tbh lmao)
Hi! We put green onions or chives in lots of dishes in Vietnam, especially deserts! Examples are coconut banana pudding, cream of corn pudding(not soup), coconut taro pudding…good job Morgan!
“$5 says I can get people to put onions in their latte” 😂😂😂
One hundred percent. No way is anyone really doing this.
First olive oil in coffee, now onions. We just need people to try chicken and then potatoes and we’d be able to have an entire dinner meal at your local cafe
Well, potato coffee is a thing in Korea… sweet potato is quite popular, which somewhat makes sense, but I also saw lattes with fries sort of sprinkled(??)/floating on top
Southern fried coffee
@@thelion43 or, dare I say it, Kentucky Fried Coffee! 😂
Olive oil will definitely send you to the loo
By this point it's soup with coffee in it.
"I kind of miss this dread I feel in the pit of my stomach" sounds like something an old veteran hero would say after an inexperienced teenager who is the new chosen one convinced them to get back in the saddle and ride off for one more adventure
In Taiwan there's a savory breakfast dish that's just soy milk with flaky crunchy fried dough and green onion. Adding a shot of espresso to that wouldn't be too far fetched in my mind!
Yes! I was thinking the same thing. Or the green onion ice cream that I honestly love.
I'm vegan so I instantly thought of soy milk as the best non dairy alternative to pair with an oniony flavor. That breakfast dish sounds pretty delicious though, what's it called?
@@Shirumoon it's doujiang youtiao which simply just translates to savory soy milk and Chinese style doughnut. The doughnut usually use egg but there are some alternative recipes that's totally vegan.
There's an old recipe out of France from 1769 called coffee eggs. It's essentially scrambled eggs but instead of cream they use coffee. Would love your take on it.
There's a Sephardic jewish dish that basically marinates and cooks whole eggs (I think boiled?) in coffee grounds and onion peels. I've heard it's really good
Come back from my garden with green onions for some stir fry and the first words from this video I hear are "I have all the ingredients for this onion latte". Here's hoping it's not a room on fire I come back to...
I really enjoyed this video. The concept of taking a not very coffee friendly ingredient and workshopping it to fit a coffee drink is always really fun. I think this could be a series with other (viewer suggested?) ingredients.
This was my first thought seeing the video title, didn't think it'd be so green 😂
I had another idea. Finely slice a white or brown onion and caramelised it until sweet and syrupy, then add to the latte. Caramelised onions have a much milder flavour and a lovely sweetness that may go well with the coffee.
"Don't comment on my knife skills." I will thank you. Because they were perfect. Got stuff cut, you didn't get hurt, and heck you even adjusted your 'guide' hand for better safety. This sounds bad, but great job!
I've been living in China for a year now and I've never seen or heard of something like this! I don't even know of anyone who likes olive oil in their coffee over here. I can't help but wonder if you stumbled upon some douyin video that viraled too close to the sun. However, absolute kudos to you for designing a drink that actually sounds interesting out of such mismatched ingredients. Really liked this video!❤
This is the same country where they created this monstrosity ruclips.net/video/wNEJUB_U6c0/видео.htmlsi=jsWghqy8qnOJrWbZ
I'm so glad someone exists who's willing to seriously try things like this
“We’re not a cooking channel” I loved that 😂
You might be correct for a coffee drink but i can think of hundreds of dishes that are onion and dairy milk/ cream based
I think it needs a bagel to accompany the first version
Perhaps a bagel for dipping
@@morgandrinkscoffee I have to say, I appreciate your cutting skills. you kept that claw grip solid. keep it slow, keep it safe
Yessssss! Good correction on the fingers when chopping those green onions ! Keep em' tucked no losing fingers today!
Could you use the green onion garnish as a straw?
oh god
was going to comment this!!
That’s an awesome idea for a Bloody Mary, but I don’t think this green onion latte thing should be pursued any further.
This reminds me of the garlic ice coffee drink my friend bought at some store for us to try
I haven't been following for too long but have really gotten a lot out of the posts so far. I couldn't help but laugh almost the whole way through this. Your expressions were by far the best part of this video. Thanks for sharing!
This is awesome that this content is for free on RUclips, I love your channel ❤
This was so fun to watch! And the idea of a syrup? You`re so creative
My Fiancé loves lattes and hates green onions. I feel like she would start a riot if she saw someone selling this in a shop.
You're a true friend for tasting this. Way to take one for the team.
If the food is cut and you're not, your knife skills are fine - you're not a commercial cook.
I have never heard of this (I'm not on tiktok) and I find it HORRIFYING 🤣 props to you, Morgan, for experimenting with it!
❤❤❤ love your channel. I thought it was SO smart to make a simple syrup and make a soda! I love that you just go for it and try to make it work, its awesome to see
This is crazy, you are honestly a magician = improving this seemed impossible to me but you did it! :D
I had a weird dream last night where a barista asked someone if they wanted onion or milk in their coffee. Now it became a reality.
“it came to me in a vision” -technophobian2962
Seeing the title I thought some caramelized onions couldn't hurt but the onions weren't caramelized and I believe in some small way we have all been harmed.
I love green onions. They're among my favorite ingredients.
I think savory ingredients in coffee are underrated; sometimes I will salt my coffee enough to not only eliminate most of the bitterness, but enough to taste a bit of salinity in the final brew.
I am still extremely skeptical of this drink, no matter how many people say it's good.
Ahh but here’s the real question: Onion latte or the taco spiced coffee of yesteryear?😂(sorry Morgan, I’ll put myself in the naughty corner now 😅)
I still have nightmares about the taco spiced coffee
I wonder if it could be made more enjoyable as an alcoholic beverage. Maybe coffee liquor could overpower and mellow some of the onion flavors and you could workshop a coffee based bloody mary.
Ok... I eat at diners quite often... and I always order coffee at a diner... many times I'll have an omelet or eggs... and sometimes those egg creations will have scallions in them... but never have I asked for the scallions on the side so I can sprinkle some on my eggs and mix the rest into my ☕️...😳😆
Saw this title and was like... "OMG EW" even though I love onions. Your reactions are priceless though. Not going to try this myself but its interesting and really pretty. Also from a former line chef, your knife skills are pretty good!
Thank you, chef 🫡
their face at 6:40 needs to be immortalized with "That makes me sad."
I got a l'or espresso commercial during the video where they made a poached egg with an espresso gravy/syrup!
I watched this with mild disgust for the idea of onion coffee, and I say this both as an onion lover and a coffee lover. But it was still enjoyable, which is a testament to you! Bravo!
I'm Taiwanese and we love scallions. I love coffee and I am NOT going to add scallion to my coffee
Sorry, I have to comment on your knife skills: they're far better than anything I'll ever have.
thank you for taking one for the team 😂
I have a feeling coconut milk might be a good addition here! I had a Tom Yum espresso soda while I was in Poland that used chilis, lemongrass, and ... something else with coconut milk and it turned out really well.
I was also thinking about using a chashu flavor profile and going in with ginger and maybe even soy sauce???
Missed opportunity to drink from the green onion as a straw! Ahaha! 😆 I loved this video and glad the second drink worked out.
Hi Morgan ! I just wanna say that this onion latte came viral in asia because our taste bud is already familiar with green onion, just like mexican put tomato juice in drink, before this there was sweet soya sauce latte became viral in my country, so yes for sure onion latte would be very strange for non-asians, but anyways great video as always ! cheers
I was right there with you the entire way! You are far braver than me!!🤣🤣
Just in time✨
I've not seen this viral trend until now and I'm so thankful I hadn't omg
I haven’t made this recipe yet, but I think a charred flavor would go well with this. I’m going to give this a shot and take a blow torch to the onions before making the syrup.
I saw several videos of passionfruit espresso drinks that you could try! Looked intriguing..
I had hit a barista creative wall but I feel inspired now, ty
Great knife skills, Morgan! 😅
Kitchen Scissors!! I always chop green onions with kitchen Scissors! So fast so easy so fun
Just moved to the city and am trying to find a coffee place that feels like your shorts. ❤😊
Lol, I like your summary of 'I don't think it's awesome'. I can think of another description.... All these newfangled trends in coffee remind me a little of the fairytale, the Emperor's New Clothes. An 'influencer' comes up with an idea, add grated cheese to coffee, says it's great and then all the lemmings follow. It tastes nasty but they all nod and say how wonderful it is - except you, with an honest breakdown. Good video.
I… what… Morgan, do you need help? Are you ok? This is not something I would EVER think of seeing together 😂
i think the other way to go with this would be to lean into the onion milk and make coffee chowder
as soon as you said onion and coffee the first thing that came to my mind was vietnam, albeit not in a already combined way more in a "have a coffee to your meal" way :D
Pretty good knife skills tbh
When you said you were going to improve it I thought of sautéing, give it more of caramel flavor. I thought your simple syrup idea was great, so maybe try sautéing the onions then doing the syrup.
I think this might belong to the same school of thought as something a friend of mine does.
In the UK we have "Trebor Extra Strong Mints" - he eats a couple of those and then drinks coffee
Any strong mint flavour would work - this is "takes your breath away" levels of mininess we're talking about here tho!
It definately changes the taste of the coffee - or indeed anything else you taste for about 30 mins
I often drink black coffee (brewed) together with food, instead of e.g. water. Coffee works really well with food. I guess you can compare it with the thing some years ago when dark chocolate was a popular (kind of) cooking ingredient.
"This dread that I feel in the pit of my stomach", "It is most certainly not awesome", "That makes me sad", Morgan describes taking a 4D hit...
Redemption? 10:30 Pepper corns are highly soluble, heed their warning. I would defiantly chose your version over the current fad. If you plan to modify Morgan's result, you can use the onion rule of flavor, with the same 50g. The smaller the onion is processed in to, the more onion flavor will be produced.
I am tempted to build you a removable floor for sliding. Think of an 8' long slip-and-slide for socks that fits between the island and counter. High gloss molding on the sides may auto center you like the kids rails at a bowling ally.
You should do this with different types of onions.
you get an idea (think its definitely gonna fail)
you think about the possibilities
you gather the ingredients
you make the drink
it works out and tastes amazing
OOF! THE SATISFACTION!
(recently happened with me, happiness was on another level. when are you doing another weird drinks video btw)
Well, those were considerably better knife skills than most celebrity "chef's" have 💁
Morgan's videos are a good 80% of all the times "General Kenobi" went off in my head
Hello there!
I would like to ask, why are we not using simple syrup in coffees?
It's 2 parts sugar to 1 part water brought up to a boil and kept there for 1 minute.
It should last a long time outside the fridge if put into a clean closed container and opened to use normally!
🤔Y'know this could be more of a brunch or maybe late night drink but coffee and onions (despite it being in eggs and omelets) kinda feels like it's too much in the morning BUT I too want to try it first. Curiosity is the best thing to have for food.😁
I'm a cook and your knife skills are superior to some of the people I work with.
“That makes me sad”
Explanation… Priceless/Hilarious
I just discovered you and I feel like all coffee youtubers have great hair. James Hoffman and now you!
Should I drink more coffee or become a coffee connoisseur or something to get such awesome hair
I wonder if your modification would be even better with less of a syrup and more of just a liquid, and adding ginger to give it that Asian flavor. Maybe infuse it in some sesame oil, or put it in with the grounds in a French press or pour over.
Should try burning the onions in an oil and then use the oil like an olive oil latte. The green onion gets milder and more caramel/toasty combination. At least it's a different profile when used in noodles than straight up green scallion oil.
Say NO to Tide Pods. 😂
14:47 "you know it's there" is how something like this is supposed to be. You ready could have your own restaurant, if you pair up with a chef.
I don't eat onion(..as well as garlic)by rather obvious reason....
It's brave to drink this...
But thanx for video Morgan
you need to look at "kopi joss" from Indonesia. It' basically putting in a burning piping hot charcoal inside the coffee. It's have gone a long way in history and a very traditional coffee drink
Pretty ok knife skills if you slide the blade more. Big part of my morning when I worked at a Jean-Georges restaurant was slicing about 10 bunches of scallions paper thin. You’re doing ok here lol
Pan fried green onions are very tasty. Good excuse to season a pan if you need to
Are you supposed to muddle the green onions first before adding the liquids? I saw someone do that for this drink which might help the flavor.
Oh wouldn't i love to see the cut video from after that first tasting 😂.
Also the sound in your new studio space is very alive and reverbie. You may neend some sound deadining material on walls out of camera
Okay, at first I was confused, but the moment you said "China", I feel like it makes more sense. I'm from Taiwan, and one of the jokes my friends and I make about the "uniqueness" of our Taiwanese food is topping a food item it off with chopped green onion(灑滿蔥花！). But of course, this is not limited to places in Taiwan, China most likely have regions that do that, too; and thus, the food item gain that specific 'green onion taste'.
The whole "scooping the green onions" is no different than how some of the soups are being enjoyed in our cultures as well.
At this point, I feel like people can understand that this is more of a regional-preferenced taste rather than something that appeals to the widest audience. The type of familiarity that the taste and texture evokes is probably what they are trying to achieve.
With that being said, this is all just my educated guess. If anyone actually had one of these drinks and liked it, their opinion would probably be more valid than mine. XD
I heard that the root part of a spring onion has a lot of umami flavor. I bet you can do something with that!
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i may or may not make this tomorrow morning.
Not that I encourage this but I would have thought maybe a bit of nutmeg like you would put in Bechamel might help with the dairy onion marriage...I sure won't try it but if anybody does let me know :) :)
Thailand and China coffee drink variation sometimes go to the extreme length in which their neighbouring countries still feel "Nah, i'm sticking with the common ones".
I was thinking an olive oil coffee a la chili crisp (but with the onions) or caramelized onion latte.
I was measuring out blueberries earlier today, hit exactly 100.0 grams, and also took a picture with my phone as proof lmao.
I think the only way to make this work is if you start with Vidalia onions (the candy onion), caramelize them in a skillet, and then make a jam/jelly out of the onion. So you can either mix in or have them suspended like a boba tea.
I’m halfway through the video rn
Idk what the final approach will look like, but I feel like you could do something interesting with sweetened condensed milk. Like a Vietnamese iced coffee with a hint of green onion, or green onion grass jelly bits in the bottom
Not horrible knife skills... no shame.
Very nice to see the knife was sharp!
What about a Taro coffee? I love milk tea with taro and brown sugar boba - what about a brown sugar latte with a tarp milk foam on top?
I'm curious if sauteying or caramelizing the onions would work with the dairy?
The syrup used has a similar taste profile as char siu glaze.
I just would not be able to try it!! Im not normally a scardey cat, but i wouldnt be able to make myself do it!!! Your version yes, the first one no!!! 😂 thank you for another amazing video!!!❤❤
