How did you comment 2 hours ago on a video that's only been released for 44 seconds?

[@howtodrink]

@ because videos are “unlisted” before they’re released. It’s not like you just upload a video and it’s instantly live.

I know you’ve said before that you don’t especially love the “Greg drinks awful things for the audience’s amusement and cruel sadistic pleasure” genre of videos, but I feel like your insight into what exactly went wrong with these horrendous drinks mixed with your pure disgusted reactions really make some of your best content.

Speaking as someone who lives in Utah, the dirty drinks thing you talked about is real, and it rules. It's one of the very few good things the Mormons have ever given us.

Fellow Utahn and exmo here. Agree they’re very tasty. Gotta get creative when you can’t drink alcohol or coffee. Not sure about the logic that a 40oz soda is somehow healthier for you, but that’s neither here nor there. At this point I hit up Swig mostly for the sugar cookies, but my favorite is basically Mountain Dew with Raspberry & Peach Syrups (I believe they use Torani) and Vanilla Cream (guessing but probably heavy cream with a touch of vanilla extract). Oddly it’s far less sweet than you’d think based on the ingredients.

[@hhueter]

I mean it kinda seems like an Italian soda with cream, but with a Dr Pepper base. Or maybe like an egg cream (which was odd due to the plain soda water base)

That Titos one is just a spiked version of an Italian cream soda. I haven't had one in 25 years, but Italian cream sodas were very popular at convenience stores in WA in the early 90s (where every gas station carried 6-20 varieties of torani syrup and kids and Mormons didn't drink coffee).

[@malcolmdarke5299]

The Malort esspressotini might be one of the things that benefits from an unconventional garnish - an olive. Salt is one of the ways that you can mitigate bitterness in cooking, so adding a briny note with an olive could soften that bitterness, if you're using unflavoured vodka.

14:00 this is legit just an Irish soda with vodka in it. I get an Irish soda at a local coffee shop here that just soda water, iced lime syrup, and cream.

This is one of my favorite series to just randomly binge, for some reason. Not because of your suffering, but because it's fascinating to see how you try to figure out why. A daiquiri with a salted rim doesn't sound too bad to me, but maybe I'm crazy.

So tbe Red Bull Mimosa opens up an interesting idea in my head, to get the cool nucleation visual and still have flavor potential: replace the juice with a San Pellegrino style citrus soda instead of red bull. I dont know if it would actually work, but I'm now too curious not to try it

[@Revhologram]

yeah I was thinking about that too, maybe a ginger ale?

[@Spider_J]

I had a similar thought, that you could play with better sodas. Especially since the DrinkMate will carbonate anything. Something like a French 75, but carbonate before adding the Champagne. Or a Mimosa with clarified, carbonated orange juice.

[@amandahallows5444]

My best drink that turns heads: Box wine and Hugs. In a glass add two ice cubes, fill about half way with Franzia Sunset Blush box wine, top with the blue Little Hug barrel. The drink will turn BLACK, like the potion in Snow White XD it's surprisingly drinkable, and I call it "Regrets". A creation made out of desperation and post family gathering left overs.

[@TheMemitim]

Not that it would've made too much of a difference but since you halved the ratio for the daiq-a-marg-a-tini shouldn't you have only put in 2 olives as well?

[@TheAquabears]

I keep thinking about Fozzie's line from The Great Muppet Caper about champagne - that if you put enough sugar in it it tastes like ginger ale.

[@PollerasLocas]

Red Bull and champagne is quite a common drink here in Argentina when people go out clubbing or parties. I believe the difference would be in using a more sweet champagne, maybe extra brut? instead of an extra dry one. IMO It's nothing out of the ordinary and it's really just a sweet drink of red bull and wine.

[@aenamabag]

16:15 ish - I don't often do sweet coffee drinks but one of the best summer coffee's I've had is a similar notion with a shot of espresso, sparkling water, shot of cream, shot of amaretto (or orgeat for non-alcoholic version). I bet adding an espresso shot to that could be alright.

For 3 months, every Canadian Tire in my city was sold out of Monster Ultra White which is my jam, so finally, I reluctantly grabbed a Red Bull. I thought it might be a nostalgia trip because, during my first-ever university maths class, we had these Red Bull merchandisers we called The Red Bull Ladies who'd throw free Red Bull at people before exams. When I cracked this can of Red Bull, my first reaction was, "Did they water this down?" It tasted 75% familiar but was a few leagues less punchy.

I always saw the "dirty soda" thing as a riff on the milk-and-Pepsi beverage Laverne loved in "Laverne & Shirley." I will say that, when my sister and I were kids, we did get on a milk & Pepsi kick thanks to that show. What can I say, we were impressionable.

I am convinced that people who buy "premium" vodka have no idea what vodka is. Evidenced by customers who order titos and vodka.

Having grown up Mormon and still being somewhat connected to them (my immediate being faithful to said religion), I didn't know what you were talking about with dirty soda, but now that you've explained it, yes, absolutely. It is a decently big thing among Utahn youth particularly, I hear from my cousins over there.

Forget the youth, it’s the soccer mom set. Half my neighborhood is downing at least one 40 ouncer a day.

This was the best add I have ever seen for a Helix Sleep Mattress. I got a hell of a kick out of it great work Greg!

I just drank a cocktail with Angostura bitters and 1. It was exceptional 2. I felt like I was on an episode of how to drink 3. I felt so much more knowledgeable than the other people there. Slay
