Dave's Fantastic Eggnog A Barfly Holiday Staple

[@ff05t81t]

I’m waiting for the moment when he drops the whole nutmeg in whatever drink he’s grating it for

[@basseon]

It happened too often to me. The nut catches on the grate and goes flying.

[@IAMDARTHVADERBITCH]

Gotta start slow

[@ritamayachattakhandi6732]

[Clip of woman obviously having a time of her life] "That is how I think of Dave" WHAT ?!!

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

I didn’t know Marius was going to keep that in when I said that I was imagining Dave smiling in the pool LOL

[@cassettiquette6103]

I enjoyed the "do you know what is missing?" with the weird pause. Very Dora The Explorer 😂

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

Did you guess correctly?

Thing I took from this is you and Dave should open a bar

Dave's eggnog =davenog

[@RendallRen]

The other day at home I *could not* pull the shaker tins apart (it was a Boston shaker, actually, so I was afraid to get too aggressive with it lest the glass break). Drying my hands thoroughly: nope. Using a towel: nope. Twisting: nope. Setting it on the floor between my feet and yanking: nope. Jamming a butter knife down inside and levering: nope. Even running it under hot water: nope (and I still hoped to salvage the cocktail, so I didn't like this idea anyway). Then I tried holding it by the glass and gently but firmly knocking the other tin against the counter edge (actually wooden cutting board, so, softer). That did the trick. No broken glass or shaker, and saved cocktail! It's now my go-to method for separating unreasonably intransigent shaker tins.

[@kimbergqvist1350]

Such a lovely set you guys made now to Christmas!!

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

thanks kim

[@TannerJ96]

My favorite eggnog is a nice warming glass of whiskey... all jokes aside, great video as usual, always love learning more about these classic drinks!

[@Halcyon485]

“Probably Jehovah’s Witnesses.” ...dead.

[@rkroehl1]

Anyone else make this drink yet? I just did, and wow, Pusser's is not for the faint of heart! I had to cut it back to 1 oz before the more casual drinkers warmed up to it. This was a lot of fun to make and the presentation was awesome... Definitely a new annual tradition.

[@dschlachty]

Just(A)Theory Yup. Pusser’s is nuts. Definitely has some bananas in its funk. It’s made in wooden stills. Not sure if any other spirits are still doing that. It’s a unique rum with an antique flavor.

[@chrischristensen5856]

Like 768. Merry Christmas to you both. Thank you very much.

[@chrischristensen5856]

Thank you sir for giving that the "Heart";Love. I really like the Whiskey Vault. Now it's Whisk(e)y and Rum and Martini. I grew a pineapple and plucked and freezed it. I want to make a drink with it. I would send a pic of my very small pineapple but I can't. I grew a pineapple. I love Rum but Whisk(e)y has me. Laphroiag Lore. Balcones Baby Blue. Peace

Marry HoHo

[@paulwallin5311]

So close to that 100K mark its awsome. Cant say for sure how long I have followed this channel as a I accadentially unsubbed at one point but from what I remember it was when you had like 6K subs. Its been an awesome trip and I really enjoy all your videos. Would like to wish you Leandro a merry christmas and to Marius - god jul från ditt blå gula före detta grannland :)

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

thanks and merry xmas.

[@ascendedvegeta]

You should do a short series of vids showing some drinks that pair well with some foods. Like steak and potatoes or lasagna/spaghetti or something. Whatever tickles your fancy

[@stevencooper3202]

Episode idea. Go visit Dave and have a cocktail making day where you make and drink Your Own versions of both your favorite cocktails

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

Great idea!

[@ritamayachattakhandi6732]

That now has to happen in a hot tub!

[@Creepo11]

Thanks for this! Never occurred to me before to use sherry in my eggnog, will definitely try next year. This year on top of the more traditinal eggnog, since last years Fernog was so delicious, I wanted to try a new recipe with Fernet, this time it was brandy/Fernet/dark chocolate (Spoiler: It's like a craft-cocktail version of mint-chocolate milkshake, it's a perfect Christmas dinner dessert/digestif).

[@NicholasFiennes]

That looks very big and very rich!

[@ManInArea]

Cripes I love that we’re getting into nog season!

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

Me too! Best season of the year!

[@triplecap4307]

Do you think you could sub oloroso for amontillado?

[@Adrian_Creates]

Man I want to make this... just missing the 3 spirits! Haha 😆

[@김지현-r4p4w]

I have a question. Why are you shaking apart from two parts(milk with egg white, egg york with spirit) before second shaking together?

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

The proteins in the Egg Yolk will kill the foam in a meringue so you make it in two parts to keep the integrity of the drink

[@Fyrwulf]

Leandro, I'm not particularly fond of how aged spirits present in eggnog, but I love regular eggnog and I love Glogg (on which you should do an episode, btw). I'm wondering how you think a hybrid of the two would taste. Glogg base: 1 part Port 1 part Sauternes (yes, Marius, I know this isn't authentic) 1/2 part Akavit 1 cup raisins 1 cup almonds 1 stick cinnamon 4 cardamom seeds 1 clove Heat until steaming and chill. Eggnog: Using the Morganthauler (I think that's how you spell his name?) recipe, substituting Glogg for spirits, bang everything in a blender and serve

[@Narsuitus]

What is the difference between "Navy Strength" and "Navy Style" rum?

[@jwddwj9]

When developing a cocktail recipe, how long and how much trial and error does it take?

[@bailey4168]

I don't have cognac, could I use a little grand marnier in there? Or should I just leave it out?

Next time the Jehovah's witnesses come offer them a cocktail!

[@Coasterdude02149]

Send them my way. I have a bottle of Oregon Spirit Absinthe I'm trying to get rid of. I love absinthe but not that one

[@Ryan-ro1dg]

Do you shake with the same ferocity when you're working a shift? I can't imagine making it through more than a handful of tickets before having to bring in a pinch bartender. Smacking the tins that hard to get them to unlock would get old pretty fast.

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

Yes I do. Shake vigorously with ice

[@bushwood1676]

Wait, you were in a movie??

[@RendallRen]

I'm honestly only curious, even though I phrase it like a judgmental question: what is it you guys have against editing? Why would you even consider restarting the entire video rather than cutting out the part you don't like ( e.g. at 3:33 ) Is it an aesthetic choice? Practicality? Ideological? Whatever you do, though, it's aaaallll good. I'll watch anyway. Shit man, I sat through the entire 3 minutes of you silently stirring in that home bar basics: grenadine video.

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

We have nothing against editing. If you watch any video we do with multiple cocktails they’re highly edited. We mask things on the set out as well. But this channel started as a place to learn cocktails so we wanted to show them being put together in real time. And I think some people appreciate that approach. We don’t edit out mistakes because everyone makes mistakes and in the end it fine to make mistakes. Even super professionals make mistakes all the time. It’s a style choice really. At the end of the day this channel is about making great drinks at home and showing people how to do that. The entertainment and the banter is incidental

[@RendallRen]

@@TheEducatedBarfly That makes a lot of sense! Thanks for the answer!

[@Wookie_oo7]

@@RendallRen Besides the actual reason that was given to you, as a viewer I prefer it the way they do it. By not cutting and editing they have a unique feeling amongst the highly edited KZbin channels. For example a lot of channels are cutting where they make a mistake instead of just continuing or starting all over again. This leads to the janky five cuts just for one sentence that is beginning to happen more and more. The Educated Barfly is a nicer smoother feeling because it doesn't have that jankiness and has more of a feeling of actually wanting to entertain you, than wanting to entertain the masses.

Do I have to use superfine sugar? Last time I tried to find Superfine, i had to order it online which was a pain.

[@gertgregoor9466]

[@victorcrisafulli5435]

Great YT channel! A question, my favorite non-alcoholic cocktail is made with passion fruit, tabasco, elderflower syrup, grenadine, cramberry juice, sparkling water, ginger foam and topped with lebanese sumak (www.coordenadasbar.com.br/content/uploads/2019/12/PAT4116.jpg). I want to make it into an alcoholic drink (maybe some ingredients have to be removed), what is your suggestion?
