      There was a drink made at a bar I used to go to called a three mile island. It is a long island ice tea the size of a double gulp. That is basically two big gulps in one.

      Long Islands are very deceptive drinks since you barely taste the alcohol when they're made right. If an establishment makes them well, they're my go-to, but I know my limits... 3-4 over the course of a 2-band set at a bar will leave me nice and buzzed the entire night while still sober enough to remember it and not make an ass of myself.

      You cant knock the Long Island Iced Tea. It's one of the heaviest mixed drinks you can get, outclassing quite a few straight liquors. If anyone has a problem with you drinking it, calmly point out that if you had a shot of rum, vodka, gin, tequila, and tripple-sec, then chased it with only a half-sip of coke, you'd get a pat on the back for drinking some good, hard stuff. The only difference with the long island is that you were smart enough to use 1 glass instead of 6.

      We do cocktails so well directly as a result of Prohibition. Back when it was a black market industry, the quality standards were super low and the stuff tasted like shit. Speakeasy's started mixing fruit juices and other things in to make the homemade booze more palatable.

    • @jackanaples
      @jackanaples Před 5 lety +1

      Americans invented and mastered the cocktail before the 1920s. Prohibition ruined the cocktail because then it was used mainly to mask cheap or rotgut alcohol--throwing the measures and flavors off.
      There's a great book on this called 'Imbibe!: From Absinthe Cocktail to Whiskey Smash, a Salute in Stories and Drinks to "Professor" Jerry Thomas, Pioneer of the American Bar' by David Wondrich. It's not just a fascinating history, but has all the recipes as well.

      Care to share the recipe?

    • @deaconsmom2000
      @deaconsmom2000 Před 8 lety +19

      Sure, but understand that it was formulated in a bar and the measurements weren't exact. You need:
      Vodka
      Gin
      Rum (white)
      Tequila
      Triple Sec (white - don't use Mezcal!)
      Sour Mix
      Cola (I use Coke)
      Use a tall glass or a large tumbler filled with and ice pour 1oz (30ml) of vodka, gin, and rum. Next, pour 1/2 oz (15ml) of Tequila and a splash of Triple Sec. Your tumbler should be about 3/4 full. Pour the Sour Mix (you can substitute lemonade) until the glass is filled about 1/2" or roughly 1 1/2cm from the top. Pour a small bit of Coke in there, give it a little stir, and find yourself a comfortable seat. :D You may have to experiment and that's half the fun. There's a school of thought that doesn't include tequila or triple sec, but my..ahem..research has found that they add a little something. Let me know how it goes and if you'd like to try anymore of my cocktail recipes.

      +R.A. Bobby B I'll note first that I very rarely see someone ordering a sazerac at the bar I frequent, but of the few that do I've seen about half ask for rye while half ask for bourbon. Don't know if it's just a thing in my area or what's going on. Same way old fashioneds and manhattans can be made with bourbon or rye. For sure goes in a rocks glass though.

    • @RABthefirst
      @RABthefirst Před 8 lety

    That's one thing the US does quite well. The sheer scale of cocktails available is mind boggling.

Its a hot drink though, so it may not fit with the cocktail category.
    Oh, it was fun watching them. You could tell by the last drink they were getting pretty wasted.

      Does Irish Coffee not originate in Limerick? Was brought over to America and popularised in the 1950s, but was originally made in the 1940s in Ireland. Coffee and Spirits combinations pre-date the Irish Coffee by at least 100 years though, especially in continental Europe.
