I’m too American to figure out what 30 degrees Celsius is but I’m gonna agree with you and say I’d prefer the original on the beach too. However the clarified version sounds like a nice clean summer sidewalk cafe drink. I dig it. 🥃
Thanks! I’m fairly new to clarification but it’s a lot of fun and the transformations are pretty incredible! Thanks for the comment! I’ve subbed to your channel and will check out your content! Cheers! 🥃
@@RobsHomeBar It was nuts to see the difference between the traditional mai tai and the clarified one. Very cool. Thanks, I appreciate the support, I'm subscribed to you as well!
@@RobsHomeBar i just got the cheese cloth and saw the cocktail, put together the ingredients and learn how to make it. I never did one. Well.... now it has to wait! Lol Cheers Broh!
Nice clarification of the differences between these two drinks 😉. Haha, poor Odin. He was dodging those arrows almost the same as Rickon Stark from GOT. I hope he ends up better than Rickon though. Cheers!
It is too early for all this science and math 🤣 Thanks for sharing the classic version as well as the advanced version. Going to try the classic first! Thanks for sharing 👍
WHOA - okay, so I'm so glad you wrote this in your description otherwise I wouldn't have typed it but it DOES sound kind of gross lol. But VERY interesting. Good job Rob! - Cam and Theresa
Do you have a favorite? So far my fav is a clarified Negroni... it tones down the bitterness and brings out a sweetness.. the transformation is unreal!
Wait, 30°c is like 132.6° f, right?!?! Gimme the unfiltered version. The clarified version looks yummy, but I like the full flavor of rum. Great video Rob!!!
haha, not quite, 39 C is about 86 F... still hot though! And we usually have humidity here in Canada so it's just disgustingly hot when that happens... in that weather, you can have 4-5 Mai Tais and not feel a thing... you just sweat it out! LOL
Hey Tim! CZcams somehow blocked your latest comment on my Virgin Negroni video... It's happened before with other users, I don't know why... I added you to my channel's list of "approved users" so it shouldnt happen again. If you want, you can delete that comment and re-write it! Thanks Buddy! CZcams is dumb sometimes! :P
Very interesting! I really like that your broke down how the ingredients interact. Definitely not the most visually appealing before it's filtered lol.. I would try it.
I use that same recipe. It still surprises me when costumers at my bar go “where’s my grenadine or pineapple juice” so sometimes I have to just do as they say🤨😂😂
LOL I know!!! Apparently there’s Don’s Mai Tai which uses fruit juices and I’ve also heard the term “Tropical Mai Tai” used which includes pineapple and Grenadine but definitely the OG Trader Vic’s is the best!
Both looks great, but even if I haven't try the clarified version I kind of share your opinion that the classic one in a way feels nicer. Maybe it is a mix of habit and trying to keep the classics as they are... I do not know. But in any case great video. Cheers!
I have yet to try milk clarification. Not sure why, though I read many article that state the same as you. Great but some drinks lose their sparks. Great video! I hope your dog gets some revenge on those walkers!!
The clarified Mai Tai wasn’t my favourite but maybe that’s because the classic Mai Tai is probably my second favourite drink! Hard to beat! ...a clarified Negroni however was AMAZING! (Negroni recipe + 1 oz lemon + 1 oz milk)... that one truly transforms into something completely different! Worth trying!
can you remind me that I want to try a clarified mai tai once it does get warm? You do such a nice job with those ice balls you should do some more clarified stuff! I did it with batched bloody Mary’s for a summer brunch once - but using agar not milk. It was wild!
@@RobsHomeBar if you keep saying the word clarified I might have to throw something clear on to the calendar. Maybe I’ll do a video where I clarify a Pepsi
Haha yes that is my menu! When hosting parties with friends and family, I got tired of people asking what kind of drinks I can make... being a graphic designer, I decided to make my own menu with my favorite drinks! 😜
Hey Rob - quick note as I didn't know how to contact you otherwise lol. We did a live video this past Wednesday and I did shout outs to your Spice challenge with the guys. I added the tag but then realized I should remove it since it's not really the submission from Cam and I at all. Are you able to just not add that video to the Playlist? I don't want to confuse people, but I do want people to know more about your challenge. Just let me know what you want or prefer us to do. 1. Remove hashtag 2. Keep hashtag and you'll just know not to add that video to the Playlist? Thank you as always! Sorry about that. -Theresa
I have never heard of this before! Not sure my wife will allow me 30 minutes to make her a drink, but I kinda want to try this. Lol. How did you learn about this variation? Really interesting.
You can "Milk Wash" or "Clarify" almost ANY cocktail! If you follow Truffles on the Rocks, he LOVES doing milk clarifications. A milked washed Negroni is probably my favorite (standard negroni recipe + 1 oz lemon juice + 1 oz milk... and then do the same filtering process). It's definitely something that takes time but totally worth trying, it chemically changes the cocktail so the flavor and texture is wildly different.
It's also a good way to preserve a cocktail. you can milk wash a huge batch of any cocktail, bottle it and refrigerate it'll be good for a long time! then you have a ready to go cocktail whenever you want!
I feel very strongly about the mai tai. You’ll see it soon haha. Great video! Even though I love clarified cocktails, I can see that you would loose a lot of the essence and flavors of tiki cocktails, if you clarify them.
adding milk to the drink doesn't work because of science Rob, duh. Clarified drinks always blow my mind, I feel like its some kind of a cheat code in the cocktail making world. up up down down L1 L2 R1 R2 up right down left boom clarified cocktail.
LOL cheat codes would be easier 😂😂 haha but it is a fun experiment, but you have to make 2 drinks, one to drink right away while you wait for the clarifies version to finish :P
I’m too American to figure out what 30 degrees Celsius is but I’m gonna agree with you and say I’d prefer the original on the beach too. However the clarified version sounds like a nice clean summer sidewalk cafe drink. I dig it. 🥃
haha, it's like 86 F so pretty hot! Maybe it's the crushed ice that makes the big difference.. who knows :P
And I love your actual view! ❄️
Thank you for this simple video in how to clarify, I have not tried this before.

Rob. II love it. clarified cocktails are so tasty. and the side by side is very nice.
Thanks! I do prefer the classic in this case but the clarified is also nice
Nice. I never would have thought it could be done
Yea milk clarification is something I’m really into now! It’s amazing how it transforms a cocktail! A clarified Negroni is amazing!
Dear lord.... you just steal the clarified cocktail out of my list! Lol
That looks sooooo yummy! Good one sir!

Great drink, never had one clarified, looks great
It’s an interesting transformation!
This is really Cool Rob, Thanks..... I love learning new things. Love Helen
Thanks! This stuff is pretty new to me too but it’s a lot of fun! Cheers!
Very cool Rob! Makes me feel like a Mai Tai right now 😁
Same here! We just got like 1 foot of snow overnight! A nice tropical drink is like a big FU to the weather! 😂😂
@@RobsHomeBar 😂 true that!
It is too early for all this science and math 🤣 Thanks for sharing the classic version as well as the advanced version. Going to try the classic first! Thanks for sharing 👍
The classic Mai Tai is probably my second favourite drink.. right under the Old Fashioned! Soooooo good, especially on a hot summer day!
This is great! I’m posting a clarified milk punch today too lol. Great minds think alike!
Awesome! Can't wait to see it... did you clarify a single serving cocktail or a larger batch?
@@RobsHomeBar I made a large batch. Definitely want to try it with a mai tai now!

Hmmm....okay, so now after watching the process, I'm on board with it. Super interesting!
LOL the dog credit was cool. Okay, that was my last comment.
@@FlourEggsYeast the ending completely caught me by surprise and I literally laughed out loud. Yup, a IRL LOL!
Yes it's a gross experiment but totally worth it and I'm always amazed how wildly the drink changes. My favorite clarified cocktail is a Negroni
haha, thanks, I had fun editing the ending! haha
I am more and more enjoying your videos. Keep up the great content!
Thanks for watching! 🙏🥃
I love milk clarification - I'm kind of obsessed with the process

exactly! It's still totally delicious but it's no longer a tiki drink... It's a lounge drink with a tropical flare! haha
