Quarantiki Featuring The Rum Runner

- Today we're presenting Erick Castro's very simple reconstruction of a classic Rum Runner Cocktail.
The Rum Runner emerged around the same time as the original Tiki movement, it was first published in Famous New Orleans Drinks And How To Mix Them by Stanley Clisby Arthur in 1937. This version is a simple reconstruction from Erick Castro and it is an amazingly simple drink to execute. In these times where ingredients can be scarce this is a drink you can cobble together with minimal footwork. Also I think we all need to feel a little positive vacation vibes right now since times are a bit dark and this can help in our quest to get away so to speak. So enjoy the drink and I'll see you guys on another time!

I love the sustainable aspects of this episode: saved pineapple fronds, dehydrated lemon, and of course the Surfside Sips!
Yeah! All about sustainability!
Awesome tip to keep pineapple fronds fresh!
Chris Twiggs thanks Chris!
I completely lost it at 3:34 As a german it´s just hilarious hearing you saying something in german and talking about this topic haha. Great video though as always!
he actually did a good job ;)
@@adrianwahl5107 oh yea he definitely did! It just made me laugh ´cause I didn´t expect him to say something in german
Man I read this comment before I watched this part of the video and I was geared up for some whole elaborate phrase in German and I was totally underwhelmed. I would consider myself someone who doesn't speak a word of German but I'd still make that joke.
Americans care about beer too!!!!
I highly recommend Norden Aquavit! It's made in Detroit and cocktail bars are utilizing it like crazy.
As a german I love when you say german words and btw that sounds like a great drink
This is exactly the kind of thing I want to drink tonight!
The name makes me feel like a pirate. And that is a good thing
Love a good rum runner! Another sip just in time for the Summer!
Nice to hear you say how the Rum Runner is so open to interpretation. I’ve had fancy ones that were ok and I’ve had some in dive bars that were excellent. And no 2 were the same profile.
This is sooo good. The sweetness + peychauds almost makes it taste like a maraschino cherry
This is phenomenal!
This looks really good. We may have to create a space for a bar on the RV. Great videos as always! 👍🏼❤️🍹 Thanks for the shout out during the Live Feed! Run Away With Us RV ❤️
awwwsome... seriously, sitting here with 25 degrees out and waiting for my bar to reopen after lockdown, seeing this beatiful frothy texture falling in the glass, you re killing me! KILLING ME!!
Thanks for sharing this one! Made it this afternoon using the Smith & Cross Jamaican rum, a local white rum, and Bittermens Tiki bitters instead of Peychaud's. LOVE IT. The bananna funkiness from the Smith & Cross goes amazingly with the pineapple and lime juices.
I never expected watching your videos will suddenly transform to "watching the movie 300!"
But now we know neither bleeding will stop you being passionate about the art you are performing.
Great video and as usual your presentation is stunning!
THIS..IS...BARFLY!
@@TheEducatedBarfly Hahahaha this is the best reply ever!
Love the pebble ice. I get mine from Chick-Fil-a. lol thanks for sharing another fine cocktail.
I made this tonight for my home "Happy Hour" on Fridays. I love this version. It does not have too much pineapple 🍍 like some drinks do. The rums are balanced and the lime is juuuust right. Delicious 😋
Looooove Doctor Bird. It's my favorite rum, period.
Some of my fondest memories of my travels to San Diego was when we visited his bars. Absolutely loved Polite Provisions and Raised by Wolves, check em out if you are headed to SD.
Got my sufside sip straws in Monday and I've used them every day since
Man I've made a few of these today. I love it. The OG rum runner with the banana feels overpowered by it. But this is just a refreshing and quite simple drink to make. Fantastic video as always!
thanks
Love a good rum runner
"whippy-pants" love-it!
Yeah, my skin splits all the time in winter when it gets really dry down here.
I wish I could give you extra likes for the “I Love You, Man” reference. 👍
I really like this version of the Rum Runner. I don't have to worry about banana or blackberry liqueurs, and stick with what I always love mixing with rum; lime and pineapple
Agreed! Simple ingredients to source, and a clean simple sip!
I think your "oh yeah!" is more Macho Man than Kool-Aid Man.
Nah. It's definitely Koolaid man and most decidedly not Macho Man.
"Too girthy" - the story of my life
Great！！！ I'm the classic runner.
Dang man, just rocking a Weller 12 on the back bar. Nice.
Looks great. When I make this, should I try the Hamilton Beech vs Whip Shake? PS you finally got me. I ordered Surfsidesip straws today. Yes, I used your code, sorry Steve! Thanks.
Cane runner. Gonna try this with campari, lemon juice, and morgans gold...
Maybe this is my brain on quarantine but that first pour of ice into the glass was oddly satisfying
One of the big whiskey distilleries bought out the 86 company and just wanted the Fords Gin and cut production on the other spirits
Great video as always!
Will try your recipe this weekend, probably with Appleton Rare Blend and Cana Brava as I still have half a bottle of that - I can't see any better way to honor a dying rum other than to put it in the recipes where you suggest using it in. Kinda bummed that they "86:ed" it as I really like it - will try to get a hold of another bottle!
PS: Marius should really hook you up with some Neutrogena hand lotion! Kinda suprised he as a Norwegian recommended anything else!
I will make this tonight. Have just got 4 bottles of peychaurds (cheaper than buying one somehow), and have been looking for good recipes for them!
Wow! How’d you guys make Marius’s audio sound so similar to the videos before quarantine? Sounded great! Also in terms of cuts, my hands have been getting very dry from washing 24/7 but I also will sometimes randomly cut my finger while washing my shaker tins or something! Don’t worry about it! The amount of cuts of gotten as a home bartender are insane!
He has some amazing recipes. I mentioned this on another video by try the “Guardian Angel” by him
thanks for the pineapple tip.
Your imitation of an irritated German was great.
Pure Michigan Rum! Detroit's finest.
Absolutely love Two James! Especially their "Grass Widow"
Tiki!! YES :)
Yesss the rum runner
A pain in the ass is the rum runner swirled together with a pina colada with a 151 rum floater
Greetings from Vermont man! Get some Bag Balm - best thing ever for dry hands. It was originally invented for cow's udders but dairy farmers wives noticed how soft their husband's hands were and started using it themselves.
Ian Glastonberry I actually have a similar product called okeefs working hands also developed for cows udders but it was on back order :( until today :) just got it in the mail!
@@TheEducatedBarfly Keep up the good work man, LOVE your channel!
D’lish. Used paramount and Havana club Anejo Blanco. Interested in your opinion on another cocktail. My favorite. I’m not sure it’s an accurate Brandy Sidecar but I pour 1oz E&J xo. Then 3/4 oz each simple syrup, Cointreau and lime juice. Curious on your opinion on how sweet is too sweet? Would you dry this out with vermouth?
Have you tried the Caudalie Hand and Nail Cream? It comes in a silver/white/purple tube and in Australia I purchased it from Sephora, however I think it's available on Amazon also.
I'm a bartender and before Quarantine began here in Melbourne, I was working Full Time in the bar so I was constantly getting my hands wet from washing the glassware, washing my hands and using hand sanitiser and this really dried my hands.
I used the cream after I had finished work (before bed) and I feel that it moisturises and soothes well. You could give this cream a shot, it may help :)
Favorite cocktail: Blood Orange Margarita with a chili powder (or Tajin) rim 🙌🏽
Wow
First comment lol... great vid 💯
Barfly love your content, if you can make a customizable cocktail glass set. Like Martini glasses, coupe, nick and Nora, Double old fashioned, and the glass in this video, that'd be a good seller. I hate having to buy 8 glasses of the same kind. If I can mix and match and buy the glasses I want in the quantity I want. Just a thought.
I tried the recipe last night and for me it was a bit two sweet. Would lower the sugar to 0.5 OZ (1,5 ml) and increase the Peychaud’s to 3-4 Dashes. But just personal preference
“We gonna not forget the bitters” LMAO xD
In Holland we'd put Pils in that glass for sure
Leandro. Are you sure thatch a Pilsner glass? Great video. Love how save your bits for garnishes.
I linked the glass below. It’s Pilsner glass LOL
I linked the glass below. It’s Pilsner glass LOL
I linked the glass below. It’s Pilsner glass LOL
@@TheEducatedBarfly I love the way you explained it. I just couldn't resist LOL
Only have Angostura bitters in right now and no chance of getting any others with the current situation, how badly would this drink go if I just used them instead?
I love this.. None of that banana liqueur Blackberry Brandy.. I believe this is a cleaner fresher way..
My thoughts exactly. May be my go to rum runner now!
Awesome cocktail!! 🍹 How long does your dehydrated citrus last and how do you preserve them?
If you store it in a cool dry place they’ll basically last forever but if it’s humid they can get moldy
Ok thanks a lot
So i was one of the germans who got to you about this being a Weizen Glass. It just happens i am also a Brewer and beer sommelier. Let me tell you why this is a weizen Glass: Your receptors for bitterness sit far back on your tongue and in your throat(which is why you have to swallow beer to actually taste it unlike wine where some people prefer to spit). Now a hefeweizen is a beer that doesnt have a lot of hops and therefore bitterness, so a tall slim glass is chosen because the flow speed when drinking is higher and the beer hits the back of your tongue first, which accounts for the lack of bitterness in the beer and balances the whole experience. Also hefeweizen is a yeast forward beer so you want to have your nose in the glass to smell the beautiful banana-ey clove-y esters so it opens a bit at the top. If they sell it as a pilsener glass , thats just fine, i bet you can drink a pilsener from it just as good, but i can tell you just from the looks it would be a perfect glass for a hefeweizen👍👍👍 i hope you enjoy my little excursion to choosing glass types for different beer styles
Also a classic pilsener glass would be tall and slim, but way more fragile with a stem, because it is a light style of beer the appearance of the glass should match that but again, thats all theory, drink the way you like and enjoy!
Thank you for such a detailed explanation as it happens, I use it for cocktails 😂
@@TheEducatedBarfly well, i see and thats great
I really like this version a lot better than the original; it's so good! Love the addition of bitters, and it's a little less sweet. I do like to sub orgeat for the ss.
That sub sounds great! I first thought this was venturing into "Mai Tai" territory, that sub takes me back there
BLOOD ON THE ROCKS, ain’t no surprise. Pour me a drink and I’ll tell you some lies…” 💎
Hey guys, if i cannot put my hand on Doctor bird rum, what else would you suggest to use? great job as always :)
As Leandro explains the requirements aren't strict, use whatever aged Jamaican rum you like, or really any good dark rum. It'll be different, but very subtlly. I don't have any specific recommendations, but Appleton Estate appears to be a staple.
Blackwell.
Any Jamaican Rum you desire :)
Any Jamaican Rum you desire :)
Not exactly relevant, but your thoughts on Havana Club 3 and Plantation 3 Stars, which one do you prefer and why?
I love them both but Plantation 3 is the workhorse because it’s just plain easier to get
Some 10” XL Surfside Sips coming up!
Man you’re quick! And thanks!
Start a beer review channel "Blood, Sweat and Beers".
Find myself wondering if he moved the phone with the Facetime call to where the camera is, so that he was talking to the camera again.
Random question: I'm looking to purchase my first amaro. Any recommendations? I suppose one that's versatile?
Is start with Amaro Nonio or Amaro ciociaro these are very good jump off points also cynar
@@TheEducatedBarfly Excellent. Cheers!
@@TheEducatedBarfly Sorry, I'm an amaro rookie! :)
Are Nonino & ciociaro categories of amari? And is Cynar an example of either of these?
@@captainsteveheart9513 Those are both brands. Cynar is another brand of amaro and is pretty great. Averna is also an accessible start to amari and quite easy to find
🍹
What spirits would u reccomend to replace the brava with? As there’s no way I’m going to be able to get that with the current state of the world.
Seeing as he explains the requirements aren't very strict, any light rum should work. Bacardi Carta Blanca, Havana Club 3 unless you're in the US, probably plenty more around though I'd think a "Hispanic" rum would be preferred.
Quintinohthree ahhhgg ik. Thanks!
I will give it a go with Flor de Caña 4 Years Extra Dry Rum, but might be too dry. Also was considering the Brugal Extra Dry white Rum. Maybe you could also consider Plantation 3 Stars
Any old light rum you desire. Just something more neutral so it won’t compete with the other rum too much. Plantation 3 star would be my huckleberry
A little snow cappy girthy whippy pants
Intresting with a Rum from Panama. Have not tried that one before. Anyone who recommends Panama Rum? Please let me know if you have tips on labels. Cherrio /Cocktail Group Sweden 🇸🇪
Ron Abuelo 7 Anos
The answer to "is it too girthy" is always no
Dude isnt Cana brava considered the closest to Havana Club 3 year? If it has stopped production, im about to buy 4 bottles and have em all shipped, put it in a storage rack and sell in 10 years!
White_ Ink you can buy Havana Club 3 off finedrams and other sites and get it shipped to the US
I know this is old, but he’s right about the O’Keefe’s! Working hands is the absolute best. Since you were bleeding this could be the rare “Blood Lemon Cocktail”. You’ve heard of a blood orange, but not a blood lemon (Bc of the garnish).
😂 O’Keefe’s is the best! Saved me every winter when I was bartending
What would be the closest option for cana brava?
Sharp white Cuban Style rum such as Bacardi White (a lot of people talk trash but it’s actually decent) or if you can get it Havana Club
Ahhh where do you guys get all these different bitters??? Every time I see a recipe its a new type of bitter and its really bottlenecking (no pun intended) the number of cocktail recipes I can make. All I can find at local locations are orange bitters and this stuff called "alpenbitter".
where are you based? You can get a lot of the bitters on Amazon. You can also try BevMo if there is any in your area or try Drizzly.com if they are in your area.
@@TheEducatedBarfly
ontario canada, and unfortunately not a large city. Fairly rural, so Amazon is probably my best bet. Thanks for taking the time to respond :)
Your hand slipped while you were shaking and your finger caught the edge of the shaker tin :p
I'm a german and I really don't dig beer that much (I'm from a wine region anyhow). Still there must be some kind of cultural DNA imprinted in me as well, because for the briefest moment I was up in arms and ready to defend the definition of Pilsner glasses!
Then I remembered, I really don't care about beer or strict definitions in general ^^"
Nice tip with the pineapple leaves - I've just had some impressive ones wilt on me today, that I would have loved to save for garnishes. Next time, I'l be prepared :D
The doctor bird is a dark Jamaican rum?
No not a dark rum. It’s old style pot distilled rum
@@TheEducatedBarfly Thanks! Is there a lot of recipes it goes good with? Reading reviews on it they say it's a unique flavor. Lots of citrus and coconut notes. Or is it more of a specialty's rum for certain Cocktails?
Wait as I remember the Rum Runner had Chambord or Creme de Mure? Am I wrong?
Reconstructed and simplified
Actually this recipe from the 30’s are the original ingredients, including the Peychauds, there’s just certain things that aren’t specified specifically in the original recipe where executive decisions were made
@@TheEducatedBarfly So I am wrong then. I am sorry. Also we need some Gamel Dansk cocktails.
@@RussellJohnson-ux9iv Oh so this is the original?
Do all tiki drinks have a bunch of ingredients?
pretty much, thats one of the characteristics of Tiki
In the tikki tikki tikki tikki tikki room....
Okay, I'm a rookie, but I just saw some of the actual drink running down the side of the glass while you packed more ice in the drink..?! You have a stereotype to overcome as a mixologist to quit packing ice into drinks..! ;-)
Yeah I guess but the fact of the matter is that if you want your cocktail to last as long as possible it needs to be packed in plenty of ice.
Beware of ice, it can be dangerously sharp.
Honestly your "oh yeah" was a lot more Randy 'Macho-man' Savage lol
🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲JAMAICAN RUM IS THE BEST. JAMAICA TO THE WORLD. WE DEH YAH.😁
I just made a Rum Runner yesterday for the first time! I really liked it, but it was very banana forward, which isn't bad per se, but the next time I make it I'm going to half the banana liqueur because I wanted the other flavors to come through. Which brings me to; don't most Rum Runner recipes have at least blackberry and banana liqueurs? And I have to say I'm not fond of the dehydrated citrus wheels. I think they look ugly and you cant really eat it.
TWO JAMES DETROIT
Sehr gutes Deutsch Leandro ;)
Marius kann es glaub auch ein wenig, der hat mal zumindest auf drei gezählt
Marius sprechen kleine Deutch, nicht sehr gut. Had German in school but it has been lost...
The Educated Barfly wir wollen Marius Deutsch reden hören ❤️
Shoulda said, "tastes Bloody great"
Totes missed an opportunity there 😂
1:46 That's hot!
Aquaphor
damn, I thought that was a randy savage impression, not the Kool Aid man
Serious Macho Man vibes
Das ist ein Weizenglas, just pushing the vid by commenting
Is this the most Marius has spoken?!
Except for the videos on Freepour maybe
That’s too bad they stopped making the Cana Brava, it was a useful spirit.
actually lost it at the german accent lmao
Cofifi lol
2:01 .75oz equals 7.5ml?...Hmm
Aw man! Marius and his mistakes! Can’t believe I didn’t catch this one before we published LOL 😂 The Correct Measurment is 22.5ml
So is it Peychaud's bitters or Leandro's blood? Or Leandro's blood IS Peychaud's Bitter actually? lol
I thought it tasted a bit minerally!
Covfefe 😂
