    Gilmore Girls is an institution it seems with legions of fans everywhere and I... am not actually one of them. Sorry, I'm sure it's a fine show, I just never got into it, maybe I will now? Anyway, a fair number of you requested that I recreate Miss Patty's Founder's Day Punch from the episode where Old Man Twickum dies, and I did. This is actually also a milk punch, which is a super neat and classic punch thing, I'll do a whole episode on that subject down the road but for now, the techniques you're looking for are here. The episode didn't really give me a lot to go off of to craft this punch- it's red, high proof, and easy to drink, BUT it is called Founder's Day Punch... so I looked into the founding date of the fictional town where Gilmore Girls takes place: 1779. That's a good year for Punch, really the apex of punchdom. So I pulled out my copy of David Wondrich's Punch! and I thumbed through looking for inspiration, some kind of starting off point. I found Ruby Punch, which would give the right look and taste plus be time period appropriate, made a tweak or two to the recipe, and came up with my version of Miss Patty's Founder's Day Punch.
    Tea & Oleo-Saccharum Mixture
    Place the peels of two lemons into a bowl
    Add 4 oz. or 114 grams of sugar to the bowl
    Muddle sugar and lemon peels
    Add 6.75 oz. or 200 ml. Strong English Breakfast tea to bowl
    Stir till sugar is dissovled
    remove peels from Tea & Oleo
    Founder''s Punch (individual)
    3 oz. or 90 ml. Tea & Oleo
    .75 oz. or 22 ml. Lemon Juice
    1 oz. or 30 ml. Batavia Arrack
    2 oz. or 60 ml. Whole Milk
    Strain through cheesecloth or nut milk bag
    Serve as you like!
    Founder''s Punch (Approx. Gallon)
    6.25 cups or 1.475 Liters Tea & Oleo
    1.5 cups or 364 ml. Lemon Juice
    2 cups or 488 ml. Ruby Port Wine
    2 cups or 488 ml. Batavia Arrack
    4 cups or 1 liter Whole Milk
    Strain through cheesecloth or nutmilk bag
    Let cloudiness settle, siphon off
    Bottle or serve!

      @@ghostcraft9343 The alcohol technically stabilizes the drink before adding milk. a cocktail mixed without dilution, chemically cooks and evolves. Without oxygen being introduced and stored will be fine but will taste much different. What the milk wash does is take all the particulates out of your mix which will alter the flavor of your drink. The lactic proteins that bond with your mix act as a preservative. With the further chemical 'cooking' or reaction, you further preserve the integrity and flavor of your punch. you can keep this at room temp and store it like wine, but preferably keep it in the fridge. Citrus over the months will dull slightly, but with recipes involving oleo, will increase the life and brightness.

      @@bxrosie04 If you go to China (ie Tea's origin and where you get the highest quality stuff, India got it only as a result of British colonialism), then the answer to that question will vary based on what materials the regions had locally available. The regions saying "Earthenware is the best" had clay in abundance, the ones saying Cast Iron had iron locally.
      So the answer to your question is effectively "Do what you want", not very useful I realize, but in the end, if people in China weren't *_super_* fussed about what materials their teaware was made from, it would suggest to me that it didn't matter especially much.
      matcha is a whole other kettle of fish, the massively increased surface area of compared to solid tea leaves and the amount of disturbance you do to the matcha to get the desired consistency means that you should probably trust the Japanese way of doing matcha, ie in earthenware, otherwise metal might interact in an unexpected way with all of the stuff (and don't imagine metal will play nicely with the whisks, to boot). But you shouldn't get your tea stuff based on matcha because matcha is *_*so_** different it might as well be a different drink entirely.

    The best way I've seen to filter a milk punch is through a coffee filter. A first pass removes most of the milk solids from the drink, but a second pass (through the same curdled milk solids) will filter a milk punch crystal clear. It's a slow process though and usually takes a few hours. Definitely not good TV.
    With volumes in this recipe, you could use a filter for a home coffee maker. However, like our resident "Internet Drinks Guy" I've never been a professional and I encourage large batches for milk punch. There is very little extra effort involved. For that, use industrial coffee filters.

    Speaking ad a chemist, they always taught us to add acids to bases, never bases to acids. Now some of the reasons for that Don't apply here, but the quicker and more complete reaction one does.
    Also while I'd love to see more microchemistry bartending, I'd be cautious about using a separatory funnel to filter precipitate. I think the fine particles might gum up the holes. Rather than cheesecloth try a coffee filter and either 'applied patience' or if you can be fancy, kit- bash yourself up a vacuum flask set up with a dustbuster, some tubing and something like wax or parrafin to seal the cracks. Or you could buy a vacuum flask off Amazon.

  • @nightshadedapple
    @nightshadedapple 4 года назад +2

    The easy way to get clarity in the punch is 1) pass the liquid through the curds multiple times and 2) don't squeeze the curds or disturb them much. Usually this can be done using a large metal strainer and a coffee filter rather than a nut bag. The lattice of proteins in the curds will latch on to the other particles and pull them out each successive time you pass, but you should have a totally clear punch by the second pass 99% of the time. Resist the urge to rush the filtering or else cloudy particles will pass through. Also, Dan Souza on Cooks Illustrated did a thorough set of experiments on what steps work best with milk punches and this recipe is actually one of the ones featured.

    Gilmore Girls is an excellent show, super smart and also endearing. But I have to say that Miss Patty’s Founder’s Day Punch HAS to be a variation on Chatham Artillery Punch…pink, light-tasting, sneaks up on you, made only in massive quantities. When George Washington visited Savannah in 1791, he was treated to many balls and galas in his honor and was made so hungover on our famous Chatham Artillery Punch that he vowed never to come to Georgia again, and he never did. It’s been called throughout the ages “the killer of time,” “vanquisher of men,” and the “mortal enemy of despair”…fits the bill exactly.

  • @UnshodCreature
    @UnshodCreature 4 года назад +1

    On pouring the punch into the milk and not vice versa -- it's not necessarily the problem that both ways curdle the milk, it's the size and distribution of the curdles that matter. Pouring the milk into the already very acidic punch means that as soon as the milk touches the punch, large curdles are unevenly created the instant they touch each other. This means that some of the punch could remain un-clarified, as the milk has all congealed before it had a chance to mix thoroughly.
    However, if you pour the punch into the milk, the punch slowly and evenly raises the acidity of the mixture until the point where the mixture can curdle the milk. At this point, the punch and milk are pretty homogenous and the milk curdles evenly and with smaller curdles, making sure all of the punch is eventually clarified.

    It matters a lot that you pour the punch into the milk, and not the other way around. If you were to pour the milk over the punch, you'd end up with larger curds, and thus less effective filtration.
    Also, the people mentioning coffee filters are spot on. It takes a lot longer, but you get some perfectly clear punch.

    More info on Batavian Arack for HTD'ers!!!
    Batavian Arack (or Arak) was originated in the Dutch East Indies (modern day Indonesia)but is now mainly produced in well, the Netherlands.
    the version has massively changed since then, now the widely known/consumed version of Arak in Indonesia has evolved into a distilation of coconut fronds and coconut flowers and assorted spices, sweetened by palm sugar. Usually Arak has a alcohol content of 40% though homebrewed/unregulated Arak's is known to have an alcohol content as high as 80%. So next time you're in Indonesia and fancy a sip of one try to stick with bottles that has a government stamped ribbon.

I made oleo-saccharum out of grapefruit rind, I switched out the lemon for fresh pineapple, added miso and everything (sans milk) into a shaker, strained it through a fine mesh sieve into the milk, then the milk through a nut-milk bag; served it in a chilled rocks glass with a pineapple wedge garnish. It isn't the same as the amazing drink I had in Wellington, but it is close and it is good.

    Basically the clarified milk punch described by Nick, but using oleo saccharum instead of just sugar. I think I'll follow the saccharum way from now on ;)
    I can, by long experience (I do that to every event), add that at least one week (better 2) left setting into the fridge improves the result A LOT. Like a man of culture always says "the flavors gets to know each other". Also, if a rum is used (i had a 3yrs Havana Club), 4/5th of the port amount is the right quantity to avoid it covering the other flavours. Half stick of vanilla every couple of liters let there for one week is also a nice add.

    Hey! Wanted to say, I'm loving all of the videos! My girlfriend showed me the channel after her attempt of making shot glass potions for a D&D game. The mindset was far more about making a potion that was "Edible but horrible", but it has definitely made me want to see you make some of the more "Gross" drinks in D&D. Just taking from my 5th edition DMG book there is a wide range of potions that could be modified into "Edible but gross" potions for players to have to drink when they drink their Potion of Speed or Potion of Giant's Strength! In my mind, what my girlfriend thinks of as "Gross" is really just something that's very abrasive - like a four horsemen shot or a very smokey whiskey like Laguvulin. Would love to see what could be come up with! (Also, saw the Dungeons & Dragons Tavern drinks video and I 100% get what you said in that that potions aren't very common in games so why make them? I was just curious what you could do if you did adapt a potion into a drink) :)
    Potion of Animal Friendship - Agitating this muddy liquid brings little bits into view: a fish scale, a hummingbird tongue, a cat claw, or a squirrel hair.
    Potion of Clairvoyance - An eyeball bobs in this yellowish liquid but vanishes when the potion is opened.
    Potion of Climbing - The potion is separated into brown, silver, and gray layers resembling bands of stone. Shaking the bottle fails to mix the colors.
    Potion of Diminution/Growth - The red in the potion's liquid continuously contracts to a tiny bead and then expands to color the clear liquid around it. Shaking the bottle fails to interrupt this process.
    Potion of Flying - This potion's clear liquid floats at the top of its container and has cloudy white impurities drifting in it.
    Potion of Gaseous Form - This potion's container seems to hold fog that moves and pours like water.
    Potion of Giant Strength - This potion's transparent liquid has floating in it a sliver of fingernail from a giant of the appropriate type.
    Potion of Healing/Poison - Whatever its potency, the potion's red liquid glimmers when agitated.
    Potion of Heroism - This blue potion bubbles and steams as if boiling.
    Potion of Invisibility - This potion's container looks empty but feels as though it holds liquid.
    Potion of Mind Reading - The potion's dense, purple liquid has an ovoid cloud of pink floating in it.
    Potion of Speed - The potion's yellow fluid is streaked with black and swirls on its own.
    Potion of Water Breathing - Its cloudy green fluid smells of the sea and has a jellyfish-like bubble floating in it.

    1 c Pineapple juice
    1 c Vodka

    1 c Sparkling apple cider

    Mix punch: Combine passion fruit, cranberry, and pineapple juices in a pitcher or punch bowl. Add vodka and brandy. Stir well, until fully blended. Add sparkling apple cider. Stir gently to combine.

    When I read Wondrich's PUNCH the gist I took away from it was that the difference between Punch and Cocktails is a question of potency and the setting of its consumption. Cocktails are short and stout, ordered personally made to order in a bar then downed. Punch is closer to the potency of wine (in ABV and flavor) and is made ahead of time and shared with friends over a long evening. Notwithstanding James Ashley's made-to-order small sized punches, which were more in character of cocktails but ahead of their time.
