- I'm making the legendary Flaming Moe, and also I broke my toe, it's in the video, I'm not joking.
**********************************
Find the bottles I am using at Curiada: drink.curiada....
Today on How to Drink I'm tackling the legendary Flaming Moe, or Flaming Homer, depending on who's story you think is the true one. Honestly, I would have called this a Flaming Homer, but research (asking my friends) suggests the Flaming Moe might have better name recognition.
In the episode this drink is from Homer is stuck watching slides from Patty and Selma's latest vacation to the Dead Sea when he wanders into the kitchen in search of a beer, but Patty has drank the last one. Instead he whips up a cocktail comprised on the little bits left at the end of every bottle in his kitchen, including some Krusty's Non-Narkotik Kough Syrup. The drink is merely acceptable at first, successfully passing the "Blindness" test, but the addition of fire transforms it into something truly incredible. To quote Homer: "I don't know the scientific explanation, but fire made it good".
Moe of course then steals Homer's creation and becomes wildly famous and successful in the process. So, my recipe doesn't involve cough syrup, because that would be dangerous and ridiculous, and it's a bit more intentional that simply combining everything in the liquor cabinet (my liquor cabinet is pretty gigantic these days) but it definitely stays true to the spirit and I think flavor profile of the drink, and yes, it is improved dramatically by fire.
It also broke my toe- so I hope you'll enjoy witnessing my severe pain in this episode.

The best way to get fire on a drink is HIGH PROOF BOOZE . Sorry dude your moe is weak.
Audible chuckle for toe destroyer
Pro tip: wear steel caps next time
"Toe destroyer" 😂 Poor guy
Where are the other two recipes?
The fact you had a D'oh moment in a Simpsons episode is kind of beautiful.
Painfully beautiful.
100% Agreed!
my thoughts exactly! This was a very.. Homer moment xD Perfect.
It hadn't occurred to me, but I would have lost it if they edited in a "D'oh!"
D... oh D O... Di.. o DIO!!
Sax
is that a jojo reference
Rule n°1 of filming: If someone gets hurt, YOU USE THE SHOT!
Pain is temporary. Film is forever.
@@riskvideos so is doom....Sorry
@@ImADeity doom is not forever..... Doom is.... ETERNAL
Your profile pic looks like the mask from money heist.. just from wish.
Look at the likes :D
Just to let you know, I’m so using your slow motion cry of pain as a monster sound in my next DND session. Edit: when I made this I forgot to timestamp. 6:45 and 7:23
LMAO i love this. This should be made official Lol.
That's actually a great idea
May I steal this idea for when I am gamemaster cause its awesome? ^^
@@adipocere3340 I'm glad someone else thought so too!!
yes
Note to self: if I ever become a bartender wear steel toe boots
They also make steel toe dress shoes if you wanna look suave
I believe i've heard that Doc Martens are actually pretty common among bartenders
And also eat more protein, calcium, and Iron.
@@zer0_zen189 i am a bartender and i wear sleek black dress shoes that are made for bartender and service staff. they have Steel toes and reinforced slip proof soles that are good for walking on broken glass
Regular thick leather boots are good, steel caps are designed to cut your toes off cleanly in an event of accident so they can be sewn back on instead of being mushed
Breaks his toe and then continues to completely remake the drink and finish the episode, absolute unit, we don't deserve
What a babe
@@asphaltannihilator157 hell yes he is
He also does the estus flask shortly after.
Not a snowflake ❄️.
"I'll have a Flaming Moe !!".
Flaming Moe? More like Inflamed Toe!
No, I won't apologize--I'm a dad, I'm proud of this one!
im not a dad, but i have 15 neices and nephews so im with you in spirit.
And so should sir well done!
@@Anonarchist that's quite a family
Hello fellow member of the Fatherhood Cult.
I ran over your son accidentally
Tbh, I don't even drink. I just like watching the slow mo shots of him pouring stuff.
Same
Im not even old enough to drink.
I like drinking a little too much lol. But hey hedonism is cool.
Do you mean slow mo spilling expensive alcohol.
@@runredsun909 same lol
We'll just call it a "Broken Toe" now.
Broken toe skotch
flaming toe.
broken moe.
@@fatherdog346 Moe was already broken way before the toe...
He really had a D’oh moment right there
Happiness, is just a broken toe away
Taking a beer mug to the foot for the sake of content...and continuing anyway. What a goddamn hero
As the expression goes "The show must go on." :D But, yeah, you could say he pulled a Homer on that one.
Kudos to him for leaving it in.
@@zedhiro6131 Yeah, makes him more human, that and the drunken singing. :D
Would’ve been better if he edited in a “Doh” after, but yeah, the fact that he continued at all is enough.
Not cool taking God's name in vain
How to make drink
1. Make drink place in a 6 pound glass mug.
2. Drop mug onto big toe and make sure toe is fractured if not it will not come out good
3. Remake drink and enjoy
I follow these guidelines every time and all my drinks come out delicious. 👍
As a bonus, the process creates a makeshift painkiller for Step 2.
@@ThatSoddingGamer what a brilliant addition
Can’t forget the added cinnamon
You made me spit my drink out! Lol.. well done ;)
I have to imagine your in a speical club of bartenders who have broken their toe by their own cocktail.
But you are in the big club of inventors hurt by their inventions.
Plot twist: This Drink was the reason the Inventor of the Sagway rode himself off the cliff
@@illyrommer1523 well owner of Segway at the time. Dean Kamen is still alive and well (inventor of the Segway, inventor of the coke freestyle machine and the reason why FIRST robotics exist s)
The inventor of Jack Daniels died from an infection after he hurt his foot.
Strangely, with a shirt like that, I'd assumed you'd be wearing steel-cap boots.
Obviously not it seems!
He's more the surfer lumberjack more than he is the standard built to order lumberjack, ya know?
"A decision he's going to regret in a minute."
Thanks, Freddy Foreshadow. X3
Ah yes, Freddy Foreshadow. Brother of Sally No-skin who is dating Billy Big Dick.
Positive side about dropping the glass:
At least you blew the fire out first.
Yeah, that could have ended alot worse if he didn't do that first...
@@Sleepyhead156 - Not sure. What was burning was the lemon extract in the sugar cubes. I don't think the cocktail itself is high proof enough to be flammable. I'd certainly hope not if you're going to drink that whole mug of it! So if was still on fire when it fell, the cocktail would've most likely doused the cubes and put out the flames.
@@TheMrVengeance pussy you arent drinking if it cant be used to clean something as well as get you drunk
@TheMrVengeance
You missed the whole point, dumbass. The cough syrup is supposed to be the flammable ingredient.
I JUST discovered this channel and the editing has me SOLD
Just so you know it's literally him sobered up a week +/- after batch recording roasting himself. You will see some fans refer to it as editor Greg and drunk Greg
And this is why I had steel toed kitchen clogs on the line. Some of the other cooks laughed, until someone dropped a 2.5 lb porterhouse on their toe, and the bone hit the nail. Then they stopped laughing.
I've worked in fast food, including a couple mom and pop places, and every time my footwear of choice was a set of steel-toed boots. It saved me in most every place at least once from butter-fingered colleagues.
The fact you said “holy hand grenade” made my day
But is it of Antioch tho?

More like screaming Greg
Am I right? or Am I right?
What's in a Screaming Greg? Broken bones and Ever Clear?
Badum chhh
Bravo sir 👏🏻
I'd rather a screaming greg then an old gregg drink
@@matty4z it's just bailey's in a shoe, nothing too bad about that :p just depends on the shoe
Today I Learned: Steel Toed Boots are a must in a bar setting.
Just in a general restaurant setting steel-toe non-slips are recommended.
There's an art to the 1-foot back-step when dropping things toward your feet... I've been so close to dropping a knife on my bare foot when cooking so many times... the sudden reflex to jump back about a foot when something falls out of your hands is just a good reflex to have... Whatever is falling probably isn't worth the hours spent in the ER if it lands on your foot.
any falling knife has no handle, you jump back like that shits falling point down at mach 2
Oh yeah. There is a small mark on the floor in my kitchen from where a knife speared into the ground. The one and only time I ever dropped a knife, and I am so glad I’d mastered that hop.
I work in manufacturing with heavy chunks of metal. Even wearing steel toes I have that reflex. It's never done me wrong.
"Loud noise in 5..." i was like, the cups gonna break. The cups gonna break. Aaaaaand...hes foot broke...close enough
The cup broke too!
Ben McCann it didn’t?
Pl pave it literally dint he said it didn’t?
Ben McCann tf you talking about? He clearly said it didn‘t break and he showed the exact same cup again.
Matt Stew yeah... he truly is foot-broke.😏
Best part of this episode is when Yoko Ono orders a “Single Plum, floating in perfume, in a Man’s hat. lol
And when Moe conspicuously had one ready!
Cocktail chemstry has recreated the hat cocktail
Different episode the yoko ono part came in when homer was in that barbershop quartet
Yeah that was a great episode
"im taking music to strange new places" number 8... berp...number 8 ...berp
Can you imagine a Simposon's Pop-up Bar where it's Moe's Tavern and like every hour there's a fake phone call and the bartender has to yell out one of Bart's pranks?
WTF The title of the video is not a clickbait and the intrigue set up pays off in double?! This is best channel on CZcams
Does it matter which toe I drop the beer glass on?
Asking for an extra kick in my flaming moe
Looks like it needs to be the left one for authenticity but feel free to go on the wild side and choose your right!
The middle toe of the left foot. If you miss it than you have failed and should be burned at the stake.
Hah, flaming toe..
The big one
Can’t take a kick with a broken toe
i used to be an adventurer like you, until i took a beer mug to the toe?
great episode as always man
I used to be a drinker like you, until i took a mug of moe to the toe
You’re the reason my favorite homemade drink is a Chambord sprite, i bought chambord because of this video and just tried it with sprite, now i’m obsessed
For going on with the show after breaking his toe, He has more then earned my subscribtion
"The more I drink it the more I like it" that usually is how alcohol works
Unless we're talking Jaeger the more I drink of that stuff the more I think the inventor was on downers and wanted to kill themselves as painfully as possible without involving self crucification. I've had dirty pints I've enjoyed more.
If stirred/layered/mixed properly, then yes. Otherwise sometimes you can get a mouthful of the not so pleasant thick stuff at the bottom. Like a mouthful of Kalhua at the bottom of a White Russian
@@andrewharper1609 Late reply but god you got an unpleasant decade old memory to resurface just by talking about that drink.
7/10 - the hot mug mix
2/10 - for wearing flip flops at the bar
11/10 - for remaking the drink with a broken toe
I'm watching all his videos telling myself "one day im gonna make that" knowing full well i wont.
Feel like you gotta pick 1 and just get the ingredients. A lot of these ingredients don't seem like stuff you would have just laying around in your house.
I think the flaming homer was based on the primo jellybean, which tasted kinda like cough syrup and you did light on fire. In a shot glass combine blackberry brandy, anisette and top with 151. Lighting it burned off some of the alcohol and warmed the rim of the glass, which was nice. And yes, you quaffed it for the slow burn and near instant effects.
I can't believe everyone calls it a "flaming moe" when the the whole premise of the episode is that it was a "flaming homer" and Moe stole his thunder, his recipe, his success.
Okay, I commented too soon :)
“Moe” just rolls off the tongue better
@@howtodrink Especially when you break toe... it was fates decision to make the title & video better.
Yeah that was a little sad :( but still good video of course hahah
Moe got his way
Me too, its a Flaming Homer, end of story =)
Wait, that wasn't just a playful rhyme? He actually broke a toe while making a flaming moe. I'm honestly impressed. I wish my injuries could be turned into a rhyme. What rhymes with inguinal hernia?
NakedUnderMyClothes oof
Someone more talented than me could probably use Averna (italian liqueur) for a (kind of) rhyme of that
I got an inguinal hernia making the White Witch's drink from Narnia...
I would spurn ya
If I got a hernia
Got an inguinal hernia riding a steamboat to Narnia
Sounds great, but I actually have made something much closer to the original minus the cough syrup. To get the purple color use grape gatorade. Other than that if it's ends of bottles mixed, the flavor of the gatorade smooths everything together.
You: *puts a straw in the drink*
The Wheels of Fate: Things are in motion that can not be undone.
On the positive side, that is the GREATEST advert for that mug. X'D
When the mug fell on his foot, imagine if he just went “DOH”
Fully kidding man, hope it heals fast
It was pretty close, closer than most people’s pain sounds I’d guess.
When the zombie apocalypse comes, he’s going to have his trusty indestructible beer mug, and he’s going to be a legend.
Oh god, the slow-mo shot really makes you feel it when you know what's happened. And soldiering on with the episode, that's commitment right there. Keep up the good work! (minus the injuries, no more of those thanks)
In general mixing random ingredients rarely results in a good tasting drink. So kudos to you for making it happen and showing us the final product!
I always imagined Krusty's cough syrup was like Dimetapp and it would taste like artificial grape. That's actually the flavor they use for the energy drink The Simpsons put out called The Flaming Moe 🔥🥃🍇🔥
God, that stuff is the reason I hate artificial grape flavors. If the actual drink involved something that tastes like that, it would be even more ungodly.
@@jamesboland2813 nothing is worse than artificial cherry.
I had a flaming moe and it was so terrible
@@madestmadhatter artificial goat meat.
@@madestmadhatter sir I have chugged many bottles of cough syrup in my day. And I can say with the agreement of myself and 2 others. That grape is the absolute worst, then cherry, then orange delsyum actually tastes good
Quit drinking awhile ago. I started watching this channel around the same time. This dude has the best thing any bartender could have: charisma
I think this has the best camera and special effects work of the episodes I've seen so far. Phenomenal.
Just as much as it's entertaining, I really don't like seeing Greg or anyone get hurt :( Over a year later, hope the toe is all healed up.
I really like how this is seriously a perfect series of events leading to the toe breaking.
Served it in a large glass for authenticity.
Filled to the brim with liquid, making it heavier.
Set it on fire, again for accuracy.
Fire necessitated a metal straw
Phone goes off and he catches the straw while turning and makes a big mess.
and don't even include the main ingredient that makes it a flaming moe i.e. cough syrup.
Zero accuracy
As someone who keeps running out of chambord, I find you can never go wrong adding about half an ounce into a melon ball, or you have that one friend who just adds it to the punch
Missed opportunity to unironically scream "D'OH!" when breaking your toe.
This legend still going into detail and joyfully describing the intricate flavors litteraly seconds after breaking his toe
@5:35 or so, I was expecting him to set it on fire with a lemon.
Cave Johnson’s lemons that can burn your house down have nonviolent uses as well!
That's what happens when you turn down Cave Johnsons lemons and use limes!
What a champ, even after breaking his toe he still remade the drink. Absolute BEAST
at least u broke ur toe in a cool way i broke mine running into a doorframe because i needed to get something from the kitchen for a BINGO CARD! YES I BROKE MY TOE FOR A FREAKIN BINGO CARD!
At 6:59 I opened a root beer bottle, it popped, perfect timing as Rod said “Owww my freaking ears!!”
Hello, magical cat. XD
I feel like the liquor gods decided to punish you for calling it a Flaming Moe.
So if he'd called it a Flaming Homer but missed the pronunciation the SJWs would have hired an assassin? :P
Feral Kuja they have to have a job before they can afford a hitman.
The Flaming D'OH!
This can't be cheap, imagine buying all those bottles for one drink
Imagine just having all those bottles already. No, I do not have a problem.
To be fair, Moe was offered a million dollars for the recipe, so this is peanuts in comparison.
i've only just found this channel (perfect timing with covid and everything) and its been really helpful for me learning about cocktails and spirits! thanks so much greg, my job selling spirits has become a lot more enjoyable and FUN!!
You wasted a perfect opportunity to say "D'OH!" when you dropped that mug on your toe.
T'OH!
Is it customary to break my toe after I've made a Flaming Homer?
after ist too late. You obviously have to break your toe while making one^^ As soon as its done you break your toe and then you're allowed to drink it
No. Only if you call it a Flaming Moe instead. That's the only way to get the Drink Gods to punish you for using the wrong name for it.
Your username was my childhood
Only with this recipe
Once you’ve made a flaming moe, you must find a table and stub your toe
the filming in this is amazing
So, I've watched like 1-4 videos of yours without subbing and I couldn't anymore because I have grown to love your videos. The music, what your doing, and your personality goes well together and your video is so well put that I couldn't not sub to you, and plus I wouldn't mind trying to make Butterbeer or beer butter from your potter videos and Flaming Moe at home. Lol, Keep up the good work!
you can see how he is in pain, he's talking far more than he usually do but is funny AF!
Okay, that mug is definitely a must buy; will endeavor to not drop on foot, although that may be what constitutes famous last words.
".5 oz of grenadine. .5oz of Grenadine.....*sighs* .5oz...of Grenadine"
Watched this episode yesterday, and it's amazing. Hell, this entire season was extremely fun and nostalgia is strong!
chambord is great with equal parts chambord, vodka, gin and white rum, topped with sprite or 7up, it is my version of a black opal.
IT'S A FLAMING HOMER!
I am so glad i stumbled to your channel XD This is amazing! (sorry about your toe though.... at least now you can call it a 'flaming toe' from the pain now). Definitely subscribing! :D
"Why use a blender? Why not just stir it?"
Because he's Homer
And he doesn't know what he's doing.
true though
Cuz Homer prefers his drinks Shaken, not stirred!
I recommend making a Mississippi Queen from Regular Show
You absolute madman
@@casualobserver3853 beginner's luck luck luck luck
Don't kill the man please
Literally "d'oh!'d" when he homered the drink onto his foot
that flower extract that turns the drink purple would have made it color accurate! I know that trick was probably learned much later than this episode came out.
The flaming moe
The flaming homer
Why not meet in the middle? Call it the flaming Homoe
Wait
Lmao! Broke your toe and kept the show going?
Subbed for life!
Flaming Toe
Having started watching this channel recently after ~ a year with no cocktail chemistry, it was very cool to have this which feels like a crossover. But also wow what a showman, keepin goin with that fracture
Ironically the best promotion for the mug. Indestructible
True story: I have inherited a bottle of Chambord from my Mother's parents, and until today, I had no idea what it was, and what it's for.
Benjamin Franz try putting about 1 oz in a glass of champagne. Makes a nice holiday cocktail
@@nickentros that sounds like a thing to try. For certain sure! Thanks!!
I don't know if it's a good thing to do with it, but I really like using it in place of grenadine in Tequila sunrise. Better color and flavor IMO
I have to keep stopping and looking liquors up. I'm a bad drinker. None of this sentence looks right, my apologies.
@@nickentros this is my favorite drink. Not just for holidays in my house!
I just gasped, “Holy Shitballs!” at my desk when I saw the glass start to tip.
So now many of my coworkers are watching what we’ve dubbed The Flaming Holy Fk.
I hope you’re feeling better, sir.
I thought the regret would be the mug shattering, this was so much better
I'm sure someone else has said this but I love how every drink turns into an old fashioned
Sir, your show is phenomenal! I am always excited to see your new content and I hope it continues! You're awesome!
🎶Where liquor in a mug🎶
🎶can warm you like a hug🎶
you beat me by 7 hours
When I went to Vietnam a few years ago, we went to a Simpsons themed bar, and they had a drink called a Flaming Moe. They didn't follow the show's recipe at all, but it was impressive. It involved stacking glasses in a margarita glass full of Jaeger, and pouring flaming Citron all over it.
I’m not quite old enough to drink, but I love this channel regardless.
TY to whoever does your audio mix for your great work. Too many youtube videos leave loud noises unnecessarily loud.
*drinks flaming moe*
Liver: ight imma head out
Anyone else underage, can’t drink, definitely knows nothing on mixology but love these videos 😂😂😂
Yeah lmao
That slow motion pouring got me all relaxed.
When the weight of the world has got you down and you want to end your life.
Bills to pay, a dead end job and problems with the wife.
But don't throw in the towel, because there's a place right down the block,
where you can drink your misery away.
At Flaming Moes, (Let's all go to Flaming Moes) where liquor in a mug, can warm you like a hug.
Happiness is just a Flaming Moe away. Happiness is just a Flaming Moe away.
It started playing in my head as soon as I saw the title.
Please don't interpret my liking this video as endorsing Greg injuring himself during videos.
I love the “he will regret that in a minute thirty-seven.”
And boy did he
Your music always brings me back to new vegas
“I hope I didn’t brain my damage”
I didn’t miss that one bud
Suffering for your art. And a missed opportunity to say "D'oh!" to really bring the theme home. Consider steel toed boots lol.
The Canadian rye pouring could literally be in a bar ad.
I'm sorry to hear about the toe. In February I suffered displaced fractures of four metatarsals in my right foot at work and haven't been cleared to return to work yet.
Oh my God, my Italian heart rejoice in seeing all those local liquors on your shelves... Montenegro, Averna, Fernet Branca, Punt e Mes... even an Amaro Nonino!
I see you are a men of taste and wealth
Pretty freakin respectable Moe impression. Bravo
This reminds me of when I moved back into my parents house after a year of living on my own. I'd mix like 9 types of liquor in small amounts so my dad wouldn't notice, add juice.
Holy moly... I've been imagining the taste of this things for 2 decades. It has continously evolved as I've gotten older. I think i might have to make this
