thanks for making the long videos again! 😊

[@Kinda_Retarded]

thank u so much for bringing back the longer ish vids ❤❤❤❤

[@SachinKathiya]

Its quite popular in india and it is known as 'Gola' and it is even cheap. In india 1 bowl cost around $0.5-1. and that machine cost only $50 or something..

[@tenkatsudon461]

So weird to see a non-short video from vlad

[@Kurata_Nemui]

Someone asked if he'd make more and he said yep. I'm sure we will get a mix of both.

[@ThePCDealer]

he needs to win money

[@mikobura2774]

YES FINALLY! someone said that 4 minutes is not short!!!

[@VladSlickBartender]

For sure

[@Shrukin9000]

@@Kurata_Nemui no they didn't

[@worminator15]

I love the fact that you're doing long videos again. I think a good mix of both shorts and long videos is perfect for this channel. Although I just watch everything you upload, whatever it is man Good content as always

[@VladSlickBartender]

Oh wow! Thanks a lot I really appreciate it.

[@lorech.8326]

I’m excited for the return of VladFlix!

Enjoy 🤙

Its pretty cool to see long form videos like these

Enjoy 🤙

“Shaved ice” is all around the world. Its been for centuries. In south american countries is a very common summer dessert. In Perú we call it raspadilla. Cheap, refreshing and delicious.

[@YJ-uo5hs]

So glad to see you making longer videos again! I fell in love with this channel with the longer videos because while still being compact and to the point they provide so much more love and time towards making drinks than shorts. And for me that's what making drinks was about, taking your time and put effort into creating something nice with a bit of detail to it. Thank you so much, hope to see more soon!

[@cesariojpn]

Shaved Ice is a staple in Hawaii. You can buy devices where you use an ice block formed in a bowl or a Cool Whip container. And even with the "impurities" it's still welcome comfort on a hot day.

[@ZeroQuantum.]

I love to actually see a long video from him because I can pay better attention to it

[@VladSlickBartender]

Enjoy! 🙂

[@illusioniser]

So happy to see this is also a Japanese thing. This same contraption, same concept is super famous as a street food dessert in many parts of India. It's called Ice "gola". The syrups used are super Indian. Kala khatta, which is made from kokum (looks like tamarind), raw mango, rose, orange, pineapple.

[@atharvakokaje5818]

Finally a longer video🤩 Amazing as always Vlad🔥

[@VladSlickBartender]

Thank you! 🤙

So glad to see full length videos again!!!! Keep them coming.

I think I've watched all the long form content more times than I can count, love to see it coming back

So happy to read this!

[@thelyonking5812]

I love Japanese Shaved Ice, way better than snow cones! I had a ton of it when I went to Hawaii.

[@Angrezo_ke_zamane_ke_jailer]

In India 🇮🇳 its known as 'Ice Gola'(Ice sphere), and its usually served on a stick, like a popsicle. I've been having these since I gained consciousness. Just search "Indian street Ice Gola". Mostly the syrups used are fruit flavours, "Kala Khatta"(Kala= Black, khatta= sour, so probably Indian blackberry aka jamun, java plum or purple plum, some even contain sour grapes) being the unannomous favourite 😍. Please try the Indian way of making these, you would loveeee it😊😊😊 Its so crazy that "Kaala khata" is even a flavour in various condoms in India😂😂😂

[@so_calledgamer3678]

I was looking for someone Indian telling about our delicious ice gola And you were the first one Ꮚ^_^

[@VladSlickBartender]

Interesting

[@anujtyagi1599]

Bro 'Barf Ka Gola'

[@dont_be_delulu]

Its more like "ice dish". Barf gola may cost 5-10 rs But "ice dish" cost 20-30 rs and eaten with spoon.

[@sxperbia]

I didn't know that's a flavor as well for conds 💀💀

[@PrestiJV]

Thank you for making these longer videos again, I missed them

[@eleccctriccc]

finally another long video, please keep doing these!

[@VladSlickBartender]

Will do!🤙

[@danielvereb6979]

Love the long video format. Believe it or not - not every person has the attention span of a kitchen towel just yet. Keep it up!

[@Ben01tM]

Love to see more varied content!

3:15 That shaved lice looked like clouds! Amazing video Vlad!

[@VladSlickBartender]

Thank you

[@JustPyroYT]

This reminds me of a thing Me and my friends did at school... It was Winter and everywhere was snow. I had some orange juice in my bag and then we poured it over the snow and ate it. It was pretty good.

[@fugu4163]

I remember a southkorean celebrityshow with k-pop singers that got a kind of icecream from shaved ice to enjoy as popsicles.

[@RoachSongs]

I love your longer form content like this too! Probably one of my favorite creators on the entire platform 🍻

[@VladSlickBartender]

Wow! Thanks a lot

[@oggeenock]

I remember seeing you replied to a comment on your previous video asking for long-form content again. Didnt think you’d deliver, given it only had a few likes, but im glad to see you did! Great to see a return to your roots again! after all, the long-form content is what i subscribed for in the first place.

[@VladSlickBartender]

THANK YOU! I really miss long videos

[@Eloquence00]

I really like seeing some more longer form videos from you. I watch all your shorts but I often wish there were a longer video to some of them. Regardless, you are airways entertaining.

[@DerBoora]

Absolutely love the longer vids cant wait for the next

[@VladSlickBartender]

THANKS! SO PUMPED

[@jrzez]

Great vid, thank you for sharing this. I completely forgot about these, was on my bucket list when I had one at the beach and wanted to make at home.

[@IunaIia]

Are the blades not movable on the manual hand crank machine? I have a different model, but after loosening the screw, the blade can be shifted up or down to adjust the shaving thickness. I also recommend freezing the water in a round quart container. It can be split in half and then the shaving will be much more satisfying than the cubes.

[@victhieleman313]

Vlad this video was amazing man! Been following you for 2 years now and your amazing man!

[@VladSlickBartender]

THANK YOU!!!

[@bubbletea124]

Thank you for returning to longer videos I really liked it!

[@VladSlickBartender]

My pleasure!

[@helix5729]

Rip to the babish tip! On a more serious note, if you want to fix that I'd suggest grinding the flat part of the k tip blade until the flat spot meets the edge to form a tip again. Either that or you can sharpen it out slowly but this will change the blade profile slightly and imo isn't worth doing. Best of luck!

[@VladSlickBartender]

Thank you! I prob will just order a new one soon

[@helix5729]

@@VladSlickBartender ah I see- bit of a shame since it's an easy fix but you do you I suppose.

[@Vifer09]

I’ve owned a shave ice business for 12 years now. The swan does produce the softest ice possible i eat that stuff plain all the time but mango is definitely my best seller

In Malaysia we call it ABC... Very similar but more syrup and toppings...

It's pretty common in India.. it's known as "ice gola" you get it anywhere from ₹25-₹200 on the streets... BTW, happy to see you in a longer video... Please come back with something very soon.... Your voice is kind of a stress buster... 😅😅😅

add 3:50, you said "it will work like a coolant blizzard in the summer time" twice xD is that a joke from you not being able to stop yourself from eating it and that was already the second serving XD ?` any way good video

[@saftigebadewanne5650]

Can you do this with smaller, non-clarified ice cubes too? (Using a knife)

When i lived with an exchange students family in tokyo they took me out to eat and people there bought me shaved ice..it was huge and idk what the flavor was but it was spicy which blew my mind lol it was really hot and cold at the same time but i ate it all cuz i didnt wanna be rude

[@oldgamesplayer2220]

Can someone tell me the size of 0:08. I think something wrong there

[@glennmorning9633]

In Indo there's almost the same thing using the soft ice called es campur but in Indo it has more topping rather than just milk

I think that you can add small fruit pieces and make it better!

[@Uberboogerdog]

Good video big bro 👍👍

[@thebeast88_]

A thing i like about your old long form videos is that you just talk to the camera. It makes your personality come through better and i think that maybe there should be a difference to the shorts.

[@MysticLuxray]

Korean one is bingsu. I never really liked shaved ice because once you eat the top part the rest is just plain ice. Condensed milk makes it so its watery but milky and the end

[@TwinSteel]

Will it work like a cooling blizzard during summer time?

What makes oat milk better than using animal milk. Just an honest question, I see you’re using it whenever you need ‘milk’. In milkshakes as wel.
