Viewer Created: The Macho Manhattan

[@boozeontherocks]

This IS a great idea of a video series. Great to see you guys chatting it up with interesting ideas!

[@danielspence2179]

Made this with .5 oz of liquor 43 and used rittenhouse 100. Great fall cocktail, the baking spice notes in the liquor 43 with the spicyness of the rittenhouse make this ideal for a chilly fall evening.

[@miXn]

Always great to see that notification pop up. :) Hope you two and your loved ones are well (in these tough times)!

[@Rickflairshair]

Very cool you are doing other’s recipes and giving your opinion. I wish I had half of your stash man. Very impressive

"I'm the tower of power, too sweet to be sour. Ohhhhh yeahhhh!" - The Macho Man-hattan

[@Lord_Godd]

I like the rambling, it’s like having drinks with friends.

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

Thanks! ;)

[@CopyCatCo]

It's the Macho Manhattan, oooooh yeahhhhh. A drink that's too hot to handle and too cold to hold.

[@TheTribalBarGuy]

Looks like a tasty drink. I love how you asked for "like and subscribe" part. Sounded like the obligatory part of the medication adds when they need to say all obligatory parts as fast as possible. Well at least it is like this in Europe. Take care and keep making us happy!

[@margefoyle6796]

This has become my new favorite cocktail. I've made it five times. I back of on the Licor 43 to 1/2 oz, but damn. This is excellent.

[@peteradvisers2684]

Slightly sweeter and less proofy Manhattan sounds like something tailored to me

[@neoroman0510]

Me too, that's why I prefer my Manhattan made with Bourbon, not Rye. But don't tell Leandro that, he will be so mad at me for doing that! :D

[@ernieforni3221]

Good banter between you and Marius - very entertaining.

[@charliethechevilguy]

Love the energy when you make things EPIC, EPic, epic......

[@joeri666]

Jacked macho sounds like a bodybuilder or a fighting game character

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

Totally!

[@davidpietranczyk]

I can dig this. I'll give it a try with 100 proof rye.

[@ChadWinters]

Great now the Macho Man song is stuck in my head

[@robertbarrone3219]

Just made it, but I used High West Double Rye (104 Proof) instead of the Michters, and you were right! Great drink! Easy drinking, easy to make!

[@robertbarrone3219]

How do you think it would taste with Meletti, or would that bee too much?

[@TheH2ghostAdventures]

Once bars reopen Il be interested to make it 👍

[@TheArmourersBench]

Spoilers, the audio was fine.

[@ava198]

When you told the math teacher "when will I ever need this in real life" .... then you discover the art of cocktails 🥂🍻🍸.. When I lived in Hawaii I created a drink I called it Passion Jack .. simple its a mix of a can of lilikoi n JD 😁

[@louisdesroches]

"mildly sweet vanilla liqueur"? Understatement of the year. :p

[@amcoldagelli]

I love the Jack Macho/John Rambo discussion

[@Justice1711]

If I want to send in a recipe of my own for you to try, how do I do that? Thanks for this recipe by the way; I'll remember it for when someone asks for a Licor 43 cocktail (there aren't many good one IMO)

[@dekekun]

Nice humblebrag with the Weller lineup in the back there 😂 I'm not gunna lie, I'd probably enjoy the Piggyback more.

[@mikeh996]

Owwww YEEEEEAAHHH!!!

[@jkobstube4314]

Tried it with a slightly higher proof Woodford Reserve Rye. I'd recommend to dial back the 43 to mby 0.5oz (was just a tad to sweet for my taste) and to add some bitters, I rly like some chocolate or ango bitters with it

[@caseofbeeer]

I'd try it with Old Forester 100 proof Rye.

[@jesseortega6775]

Might be cool to give your variation of a viewer created cocktail. I’d a liked to see you use a bonded rye with less 43. Or maybe that OGD 114. If any bourbon could work in a Manhattan, that’s the one.

[@Barprints]

LOL....Marius wasn't having it early on! 😂

[@minoguahd3867]

You should call it Barfly R&D! It stands for Barfly Research and Development. Very official-sounding.

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

We had an R&D series a long time ago :)

[@BenTX0914]

I think the idea of y'all doing a critiquing show would be awesome!

[@stefanschwalenberg8320]

This just popped into my suggested vids. If I can find Licor 43 (which I absolutely LOVE) @ Binny's, I am SO making this cocktail!! Leandro: how about substituting Templeton Rye for the Michter's??

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

Yep you could do that :)

[@Feldmrschl]

Dammit! Now I have to buy some Licor 43. My cabinet runneth over.

[@Barprints]

My thoughts exactly. Sounds like a great sip!

[@dravendrinks]

Leandro spends 2 minutes just ripping this guys name. "Alright let's get to the drink now"

[@statix6979]

Wow

[@augustjohnson9416]

this is my recipe for a drink i just made either called gin old-fashioned or mother's kumquat in a rocks glass put a kumquat, sliced in two add .25 oz strega muddle add 2 oz plymouth gin add ice stir

[@augustjohnson9416]

watch out for the kumquat seeds

[@ascendedvegeta]

Use redemption rye. Comes in at 46.5% abv 👍🏻

[@Drexdragon90]

manhattans are a favorite drink of mine... looks like I need to get some licor 43...

[@Barprints]

Think I'll have to try this one too....you know...for science!

[@littleRastaman]

Thank you for name dropping randy savage

[@bryanmindte8687]

I make a similar cocktail. I’ve always wondered if it’s an old fashioned with sweet vermouth, or a Manhattan with simple syrup served on the rocks. 4 dashes ango, .25 oz. simple or maple, 1 oz. sweet vermouth, 2 oz. rye (I use rittenhouse or old overholt bonded) served in old fashioned glass with a single rock. I’ve always leaned toward calling it an old fashioned variation because of the syrup and the presentation. Any thoughts?

[@jamesd7678]

I would just say that it’s a Manhattan. Because the 1oz of sweet vermouth does much more to change the identity of the drink than the 0.25oz of simple syrup does. It’s just a sweetened Manhattan served on the rocks

[@angelostotskas9202]

Nice

[@alexanderbertallo1995]

Your "viewer created" episodes are really cool...

[@joshalms7642]

I would try this with 1792 high rye.

[@markbowerii7632]

Try this with rare breed instead if it needs more proof. It's not a rye but rare breed is a high rye bourbon so I'd imagine it'd work well.

[@bravowhiskey4684]

Even guys who were not in the military know the air force is a joke. Awesome.

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

LOL

[@kimbergqvist1350]

Audio sounds epic when Leandro is doing his shouting intros

[@SuperdupeHajdeBre]

nice

[@lefto8773]

Epic ~

[@sacramento60]

Im not a bartender, i'm just an alcoholic but try this drink I made up! its great! "Elizabello the 2nd" 1 oz Gin 1 oz Gold tequila 1 oz cranberry juice 1 oz orange juice 3/4 oz fresh lime juice 1/2 oz tripple sec 1/2 oz simple syrup 1/4 Campari Shake and serve over ice Enjoy Elizabello the 2nd is a One Piece character who's best attack is called the "Kings Punch". I would have named it that but it sounds too presumptuous.

[@jorgeisaacguerrero]

i'll try it. salud🍻

[@jerrygarcia1800]

Hello, from Athol, MA. How do I submit a video? It’d be dope to see if I’m good enough to make it on your channel.

Jack Macho, legend hahah

[@sebastiantillmann1669]

Can a drink with Licor 43 be “macho”?

[@happens4656]

Definitely, have you met Spanish people? Extremely macho!

[@anonympaul5254]

Pls some jazzy music in the background. Just very quiet 👌🏼

[@Wyrd916]

Jack Macho would be a Merc.

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

True, Marius (Me) was trying to say Marine or SEAL, but not sure what I ended up saying...

[@oboecoe]

Jack Macho is like Homer Simpson's made up name of "Max Power"

[@babula1965]

maybe Jack macho is Korean and his name is pronounced like Jack Ma Cho

[@88johnbarnes]

How does the vermouth stand up?

[@TWFydGlu]

Alastair Price It’s a flat bottom.

I have a great cocktail- the improved Red vintage. Edit-Should I tell you the ingredients?

[@jonathanwatson2355]

Name could be real. Wikipedia lists 6 significant people with Macho as a surname en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macho_(surname)

[@DrinkinItIn]

It totally sounds made up, but how cool is it if it is his real name?!?!?

[@Rickflairshair]

Cool name from orginator. Atleast his name isn’t Rod Munch

[@nathanducharme5697]

He was definitely drunk for that intro

[@Barprints]

LOL....Marius sobered him up REAL quick😂

Have you done a negroni sour before?

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

Not yet!

[@Barprints]

Never heard of that one. Is that like and Enzoni?

[@gnampf1808]

@@Barprints you just do a classic sour but instead of 2oz of liqueur it's 20ml of each of the negroni ingredients

[@joe_hutnak]

I would pay to watch "Macho Manhattan" starring Sly and Arnold.

[@alexanderbertallo1995]

I guess Rittenhouse Rye would be the better choice...

[@TheEducatedBarfly]

@@TheEducatedBarfly it was a gag gift for a buddy. They have a video on their website too. You probably find it by googling "cooking with cum" or "semenology"
