## Summary

In this special holiday live stream, Andrew Rea (Babish) makes three festive cocktails: a Smoky Rum Punch, Greg's Eggnog, and Hot Buttered Rum. All Super Chat revenue from the stream is donated to St. Joseph's Soup Kitchen in New York City, a cause close to his heart.

### Key Points

- **Smoked Rosemary Simple Syrup** [26:24] — He makes a smoked rosemary simple syrup by torching rosemary and simmering it with sugar and water.
- **Making Greg's Eggnog** [32:34] — Andrew makes Greg's Eggnog, a recipe from the 'How to Drink' channel, using bourbon, cognac, and Luxardo maraschino liqueur.
- **Dry Shaking Technique** [33:15] — He demonstrates 'dry shaking' (shaking without ice) to emulsify the egg for a creamier eggnog.
- **Hot Buttered Rum Preparation** [51:41] — Andrew prepares Hot Buttered Rum with a spiced butter base of brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, cloves, and nutmeg.
- **Adding Lemon to Hot Buttered Rum** [62:46] — He adds a squeeze of lemon to the Hot Buttered Rum to cut through the richness, improving the balance.
- **Assembling the Smoky Rum Punch** [92:51] — Andrew assembles the Smoky Rum Punch by combining the tea, simple syrup, gin, triple sec, and fresh citrus in a punch bowl.
- **Beard Care Routine** [30:34] — He shares his beard care routine: trim, shampoo, condition, oil, and 100 brush strokes daily.

there's a ton of them thank you so much
I just saw one so I'll just read it
here's the donation you're my favorite
Channel happy holidays from rinic
enchanter thank you so much Rinnegan
chanter come to Chicago I was just in
Chicago a couple weeks ago shut up I'm
here to get wasted the middle night okay
I think this Brian sue sue fellow needs
to be put on slow mode here I'm gonna go
ahead and put them in timeout okay here
we go we got so many inappropriate
messages okay all right cool let's get
to let's get to making some drinks folks
which one should we start with here we
got to start with the smokey rum punch
because there's a couple steps involved
so let's start with the most the one
that needs to sit the longest which is
probably gonna be the tea because it
needs to steep and then it needs to cool
off so behind me here I got my kettle
I'm gonna crank that on and I'm gonna
grab my big cup measure because we want
about four cups of lapsang tea now if
you'll excuse me for just a moment I
have to run off
I'm gonna get the lapsang and I'm
getting a call from some weird number I
don't feel like dealing with her Jake do
you still have lapsang in there I don't
know where the rest of it is yeah
believe I have some lapsing in my desk
hold on a second let me check out all
right sweets thank you I bought way too
much lapsang and now I can't find it
okay
we'll figure this out thank you all
right so here we go we got our lap
saying this is a super smoky tea this
stuff tastes like smoke it's crazy so
I'm gonna do like probably four bags we
have four cups of water and coming I'm
going to go ahead and send you to
voicemail when he answered there we go
and I'm going to make a big old pot
elapsing here that's gonna be where all
this not all the smoke but some of it I
do a couple things different from the
from the Serious Eats version i torched
my herbs which I'm also doing another
thing different normally this is made
with sage but I don't have any sage
right now I couldn't find any at the
grocery store so I got a little bit of
rosemary out of the garden over here and
this is gonna be really nice especially
torch I was that a anybody ever been to
sleep no more that's funky interactive
Shakespeare production here in New York
City they have a cocktail there where
they literally would torch rosemary and
put it out in your drink and it just
imbued it with all the smoky rosemary
flavor and unfortunately bits of
rosemary that was one of the downsides
of that method but some it's it was
still like super interesting and really
tasty so I'm just tying up all these
teabags here so we can have a nice
strong brew and then we also need to
make the smoke in this case rosemary
instead of sage we need to make smoked
say smoked rosemary simple syrup this
stuff is extremely versatile it goes
great in a number of cocktails it goes
you know you could make an old-fashioned
with it at it instead of you know a
sugar cube or the normal the normal
what's it called simple syrup and it's
going to just bring a whole new world of
flavor there especially if you have like
a cheap bourbon that you're working with
and you don't want to you want to jazz
it up a little bit what are people
saying here we have more donations thank
you guys so much Tina twenty dollars
Thank You Tina Silverman lady Nikki gave
ten dollars thank you let's see Nikolas
stay I can't pronounce that Happy
Holidays babby thank you and thank you
guys all so much if I'm it if I miss you
I'm very sorry fifteen dollars from Alex
James cross he's asking he's got a
question is there any benefit to your
Vulcan stove needing to be lit manually
no there is not this this stove has it's
a commercial stove so it's got a big ol
hot nasty pilot light it's it's like
this giant really powerful pilot light
so if you leave it lit this whole
kitchen gets wicked hot even now right
now in the winter in the middle of this
storm I'm really hoping that we don't
have a power outage or an internet
outage in the middle of the stream by
the way if we disappear it's because
there's a massive storm approaching New
York City right now and we might get
knocked into the dark ages but ya know
it's a very popular popular very
powerful pilot light it's a very popular
pilot light and it just heats up their
whole room so we shut it off and now you
have to light it manually the only pilot
light that's on in here is the one in
the in the in the oven itself and it's
so hot that it keeps the oven even when
it's off the oven is like ambien hundred
and seventy five degrees so it just
heats up the whole room but anyway
that's a long-winded answer to your
question I'm gonna go back to this here
we got you know thank you we got thirty
dollars from Andrew Miller King okay we
got with right now the top super Chad is
saying that should turn up my volume
what do we think guys has the how's the
audio are you hearing any any low volume
complaints Jake you seen anything
I'm not seeing anything but our little -
let's see what they say - the shout out
I'm seeing some lag complaints hmm well
we have a new new Internet setup here
maybe there's some some issues there
sorry sorry for any technical issues
we're having big storm in New York City
tonight I'm gonna go ahead and blame it
on that all right we got our water
coming to boil it to a boil back here
coming to the boil that is the right way
to say it apparently not boil but the
boil make sure my mic is out of the way
here there we go
all right people are saying it's good
people some people are saying turn it up
so yeah just a little turn up would be
great okay
let's once we got this done we'll make
our simple syrup and then while those
guys are hanging out and steeping and
getting ready we will go ahead and and
do the next thing which is I think
probably going to make some eggnog I
think that's probably the way to go a
lot of funds I'm seeing so much fun snow
is not a four-letter word get on my
level
all right we got wool and water back
here I'm gonna go ahead and dump it
right into my Pyrex we want four cups of
lapsang tea poured all over the teabags
make sure they get nice and how is this
leaking it's made of metal oh it was
coming out the lid okay I was like what
the hell did I do to deserve this okay
four cups it is perfect okay while that
steeps Jake let's head on over to camera
two what we're gonna make some simple
syrup here we go folks one two three now
we're we're all right that [ __ ] that
focus will soft I'm just gonna whoop
there we go perfect now I'm going to
make some simple syrup and the simplest
way to make such a syrup is to combine
equal parts water and sugar so a cup of
water - a cup of sugar
one cup of sugar over here and I'm sorry
I'm
whenever I'm over here at the stove guys
I can't see the chat I can't see what's
going on so I'm sorry if I'm missing
anything cool or from using any generous
donations
I'll be back momentarily and so now
we've got a cup of sugar in there a cup
of water you're just missing everybody
complement my my ability to switch
cameras oh I mean you know guys sores
so we're didn't go to school for this
look I did but he's got street smarts
okay he's really you know I'm learning
on the job
uh-hum all right so now that we got
those combined there I'm gonna go ahead
and grab everybody's favorite American
Hero
tiny whisk this got to be tiny with
first appearance in a live stream has he
ever hung out in the live stream before
there have been requests but I don't
think his services have ever been needed
here he is and I'm gonna let you guys in
on a little secret
he is not the only one I have a few of
these so I'm sorry if we all thought of
him as one single entity but that's not
the way the world works unfortunately
you gotta have doubles that's why every
time the little kid in a movie or TV
show they always hire twins in case one
of them dies I'm getting nothing always
it's one of always but they usually do
use twins in case one of them's being
you know having a fit or not being
cooperative they got the other one
andrew is actually a twin yeah I'm it's
one Shomo switch over to camera one
you'll see my twin where he's not twins
actually plays which right now oh dude
you just blew up my spot no I wish that
I had a twin hunky twice which because
then we could we could we could play
switch together and it would be weird
these very strange we've been all each
other's moves like one of those movies
like at the end of the Captain America
Civil War okay so I could really turn
the heat on here I don't know why I'm
doing this we're going to eat much
easier with some heat on um it's clearly
it's just just coming back up to speed
here I gotta get the old flame banging
on all cylinders so I'm just gonna stir
this together we just want to mix it
until it dissolves who the hell is that
it's bro okay I got him I got him all
right thanks we gots a friend of ours
Evan Brody coming over right now he
doesn't know that he's about to be had a
livestream in front of a lot of people
so that's gonna be an interesting let's
see what let's see what he have reacts
to that but he's no stranger to the
stage what was the name of his band
again family portrait oh yeah he was the
singer in your band so where was in a
band called and is I guess in a band
called the family portrait go check him
out and Spotify family portrait
everybody and the lead singer of that
band is headed over right now swear I
believe played bass yeah I'm sort of
played based on family portrait and was
the owner of the label that they were
part of called underwater people's all
right I'll brief him when he comes in
the room oh yeah you guys are getting
the full babish comic University of the
BECU so the BCE you will come out in
2019 we have a very very exciting
addition to the team that I can't talk
about yet but you guys can expect some
big changes and some big things pretty
immediately in 2019 we're working on a
new show I am NOT gonna say what it is
yet but get hyped because it's gonna be
a lot of fun and I think you guys are
gonna really like it and it's being made
by somebody that I think you're all
gonna be familiar with and my fans
and it's it's gonna surprise you I think
I think I think that we got some some
big surprises coming in 2019 that you
might just not expect and if you're not
careful you just might learn something
okay so this guy is gonna come to a boil
as soon as he comes to a boil I'm gonna
torque the torch the rosemary over here
you grab the rosemary just so it's ready
to go
in fact I'm these tongs so I don't burn
my fingers right off on the internet
front of everybody and yes soon as this
comes to a simmer which it almost is
actually no we need to we need to let
this boil for like five minutes I think
we needed to reduce a little bit if I
remember correctly how do we do this
I mean let me double check my double
check my good old directions here okay
all right so no mind we wants this to
simmer for 20 minutes with the rosemary
inside so let me torch it now this is
always fun to watch
it's okay 30 second rule or however long
it was on the floor floor just make sure
these are all gripped you'd be here by
now all right here we go now we're gonna
torch us a little bit of rosemary oh
yeah
yeah dougie there we go I don't want to
burn it all off I just want to get some
smokey kind of stuff going here alright
that's good I like that I like that and
then it goes I'm just gonna tuck it in
there and we're gonna let that simmer
for like 20 minutes
mmm it's a really interesting smell I
should say good good good it is
definitely a good smell but it's also an
interesting smell let's see here and
then you know actually I'm just
realizing right now that I under you're
supposed to do a 2 to 1 to 1 ratio of
water to sugar so let me add another cup
of water here sorry about that folks
I've completely forgotten I was
wondering why it was so thick looking
and already like that's a little bit too
fast so no no harm no foul
you can add another another cup of water
no problem grab your backup tiny whisk
your twin tiny whisk whisk Aroo there
and we're gonna let that simmer for 20
minutes there we go
okay and now let's head back over to
camera 1 this tea is looking pretty
steeped I'm gonna give it like two more
minutes I want to be very very strong
one a nice nice smoky smoky whatever oh
wow we have a $100 super chat from Darth
Ripper I've enjoyed your videos babish
I'd be happy to help towards a good
cause say stay after him say stay safe
during the storm happy holidays everyone
thank you so much Darth Ripper that is
very very generous really appreciate it
20 New Zealand Reed dollars from
Jonathan repin I think he might have
missed the elevator dude it's cuz I
should be up here by now ah he might not
have been him because it's still an
early before he was supposed to get here
okay I wonder if it was it was that even
we think I think we have a thief in my
building
I just let up the thief oh great
we have $14.99 from Bobbi Laird have you
considered doing live shows pops
possibly on the west coast absolutely
and my new book is coming out in q4 of
2019 in fall 2019 so q3 I guess and I'm
trying to organize a book tour again
details that I can't speak to yet but a
very cool very exciting book tour that I
think you guys will really enjoy I'm
gonna go ahead and pretend that that
started boiling at about 625 and so that
means in about 15 minutes
we let me turn down the heat a little
bit here we just want this at a nice
little righteous simmer and normally
we'd want to like cover this and let it
steep for like an hour after simmering
but we don't got that kind of time and
it's gonna have plenty of that rosemary
or smoky rosemary flavor but you to
really maximize the flavor you want to
let us steep for a while because it is
pretty mild but even if we only could
just get a little bit of flavor it's
gonna be it's gonna be really nice so
yes thank you very much oh wait we have
another generous donation over here at
another generous benefactor
let's see we got $10 from Andrew Miller
again I remember I remember you from
before thanks again man
you should make an episode called beards
with babish all but what's and how you
care for your beard well I say this
every show and I'll say it again which
is my beard care regimen is simple it is
trim shampoo condition oil brush
daily 100 hundred brush strokes 1 2 3 4
5 cent 100 brush strokes every day keep
it soft keep it keep it keep it keep it
under control fellows ok let's move the
focus of this camera a little bit there
we go all right so I guess it's nod time
I'm gonna close the door here cuz it's
making me uncomfortable ok and I'm gonna
grab the booze which is still in the bag
over here cuz I forgot about it
okay so for the punch I got some
Brooklyn gin here this is a really nice
American gin I assume it's American
because it's says Brooklyn Jen be weird
if it was from like London or something
and then we got peer formed which I'm
sure I'm butchering because I can't do
French pronunciation to save my life
except when I practice a million times
over before my voiceover and this is a
really really nice cognac you know it's
pretty expensive for making cocktails at
least in New York this is like 45 bucks
which to me means that everywhere else
in the country it's like 35 bucks so I
guess that's not that bad for making
cocktails but it is still a little bit
on the high end but it's worth it like
eggnog is one of those one of those
cocktails that really lets the alcohol
sing
you definitely got other flavors going
on there but all the richness from the
cream means that you really want
something that isn't harsh and doesn't
have a lot of bite to it
I lose all this label here plus I have a
bottle of champers that I want to open
up later on so don't let me drink too
much of this stuff okay okay good
all right I have mangled that that
wasn't a snake whoops okay pretending
you didn't see that I just didn't want
to cut my fingers on the foil okay so
what we're gonna do now is we're gonna
make we're gonna make Greg's eggnog from
how to drink so Greg if you guys watch
this episode Greg was the fellow from
how to drink Greg how do you say his
last name
Titian Tyson Tyson Titan
well whatever it's a very big manly last
name and and he's a he's a manly man and
he taught me how to make a manly eggnog
he called a country bumpkin country
bumpkin eggnog and it's a modernized
version of Gerry Thomas's Baltimore
eggnog which is an eggnog of your and
it's pretty funky so I wasn't like super
crazy about it but he did teach me a
bunch of things here first is to we're
going to dry shake this
dry shaking is the act of shaking your
cocktail ingredients without ice and
that's going to help
apparently emulsify the egg and just
help this get a little bit creamier down
the line so that means we're gonna start
with no ice I'm just gonna grab my
measure here and in this shaker we're
going to combine a little bit of bourbon
a little bit of cognac and a little bit
of I believe he put some of this look
Sardo Maris you know pour in there this
wine is all up in a pretty little line
beautiful let's get this nice and
centered come on come on Andy you can do
better than this oh this this looks
great okay sorry I'm such a sucker if
you guys haven't seen the show or
anything
I must kind of a sucker for symmetry um
so that's what we're doing here okay I'm
gonna stop messing around we are I
actually have some open bourbon let's
just not open up the Basil's yet we can
use the rest of this alright we need two
ounces of bourbon I believe yes he made
his very bourbon heavy heavy we got two
ounces here exactly enough left look at
that Wow
well I just spilled it everywhere just
like him it's a natural part of making
cocktails apparently you just spill it
everywhere I don't know why they don't
make these things a little bit more like
user friendly it's very hard to keep it
off okay so we got two ounces of bourbon
we need 1/2 ounce of cognac so this guy
is one ounce there's a half ounce I'm
sorry I've never used this measure
before 1/2 ounce of cognac we go a
little heavier on the cognac here we go
1/2 ounce of cognac 1/2 ounce of looks
are down there she know the core which I
can't remember if this is the byproduct
of maraschino cherries or if it's the
stuff that they make maraschino cherries
in I think it's the stuff that they make
maraschino cherries in it is very clear
and it doesn't taste it does smell a
little bit like cherries but you know it
just goes to show that Greg knows what
he's talking about
doh but he and I are so similar in ways
that I never would have imagined he too
is a filmmaker and he works in
post-production right now and it was
just making how to drink as a passion
project and it's so beautiful it's got
to be one of the most beautiful shows on
YouTube it's so well shot they shoot
everything on red with cinema lenses and
with that amazing slow-mo and they have
that awesome set that they bill like
it's such a cool show and I just love
that he's just doing it out of the
goodness of his heart like he's just
doing it because he loves it and that's
where great YouTube shows are made and
happily he's experiencing this
incredible blow-up of subscribership and
viewership on his channel god bless him

donations here we've got $169.99 New
Zealand Dollars from Patrick when

thank you so much guys anybody who's
just joining us all these super chats

super chat revenue to st. Joe's st.
Joe's soup kitchen st. Joseph's soup
kitchen in the East Village here in New
York City they are a wonderful
organization they're a great place to
volunteer and they're gonna be giving a
lot of meals to a lot of people who need
it this holiday season so god bless them
alright half an ounce of simple there we
go
I'm gonna dump this right into the sink
or I'm just gonna bring it over the side
so it's not like leaking sugar water
everywhere that stuff gets sticky okay
simples out of the way how we doing on
time when you need 10 more minutes on
that's on our on our simple syrup get
all these bottles out of here and the
last thing we need is
we need the one more thing which is the
egg egg i like these eggs
peeping cherries you know it's nice to
get one of those eggs is a really you
know fire burst orange you know it's a
little bit hard to come by some of the
like pete and jerry's I find are like
half
you know piss yellow and half really
nice orange so just make sure that's all
we're putting in there I just wanna make
sure I'm not missing anything I need
fresh nutmeg eventually and then okay
okay all right he tops it up with milk I
forgot about that okay so oh and one
more thing I just need is the nutmeg and
an orange so let me just grab nutmeg
real quick I just have it right over
here on my spice rack just off camera
which is not totally convenient here we
go got my nutmeg I only got one one
nutmeg night left
what's that and it scared me oh okay no
it's right there the butter caught it
we're good thank you for your concern
all right we got our one nutmeg nut left
if that's what you call it I really
don't know if you call those a zester or
my microplane rather all right so now
I'm just gonna simply do this with one
hand for the folks you know I try to
show me cracking eggs with one hand on
the show as much as possible but the
reality is that I'd say one out of every
three times I'm cracking and she'll in
there and then I'm breaking the yolk and
all that good stuff so there we go
that's a nice clean break beautiful just
wash my hand a little bit whoo glad I
didn't screw that up glad they can't
hear me right now whoo okay so all right
we got everything in there I believe
yeah so we're just closing that up
ideally you want to use a Boston shaker
which is just the two glasses but I
don't
you know where mine is right now we just
had everything torn up and put back
together because we we did all the
photography and for my new cookbook
right here in my apartment right over
there in that corner of the room and I
had you know a couple cooks in here I
had food stylist as a photographer and
everything got torn up and put back
together so a bunch of things are
missing I don't know where they are and
my boston shaker is one of them I'm just
gonna make sure that's good and
emulsified there we go
make sure that this guy isn't hold many
secrets up here there we go good stuff
good okay and now we're gonna shake it
over ice it's nice and nice and frothy
exactly what we want and I'm just gonna
punch the ice in there
seeing how good Greg's cocktails came
out despite how like you know goofy and
aloof he was being about it really
really grew my confidence in the kitchen
at the bar because I do enjoy a drink
but I always wondered like am I doing
this right you know would Greg be proud
and really you know it's just about like
he says on the show if the TAT the end
of the day if the drink is in the glass
you did your job right so and that's
true you know you're the only one who
can tell if you made your drink
correctly if you like it then guess what
you made it right
don't let him and only a snob tell you
did it wrong just because they you
didn't make it you didn't make it their
way you didn't make it the textbook
right way all right let's see if this
looks right it's looking right to me
it's got that eggy yella appearance
let's get out of there
all of it now I think I picked too big a
glass but that's okay well it smells
right I'll tell you that much hmm yeah
this one's very good okay
and then next up comes some
half-and-half there we go
it's a little shaker roof and let's see
thank you guys I see a few new super
chats there thank you very much for your
generosity for a very good cause dilute
this by about half I chose to way too
big a glass for this that's okay
remember what I said before about that
being fine it's fine
oh look so nice and creamy I do wish I
could give it a little stir but he just
poured it in there and it was fine so
I'm just gonna go ahead and grate a
little nutmeg over top that is like the
most important part of eggnog I'm
telling you you wouldn't have eggnog
without a nutmeg it just doesn't make
any sense and I'm also gonna do what he
did which is great a little orange zest
over top I got these nice oranges in
here a little a little bit overwhelming
there we go there you have it
Greg's Greg from how to drink Greg's
hillbilly eggnog or I'll just call it
Greg's greg-nog that's what he called it
greg-nog which is just brilliant I mean
come on so cheers guys happy Holidays to
the first of several several drinks
tonight um we're gonna be doing this we
got our simple syrup going over there in
fact it's in two minutes it's gonna be
done simmering and we're just gonna shut
it down and let it cool off but cheers
guys thank you for joining thank you so
much for your very generous donations
I'm seeing lots of very generous super
chats I'm very sorry for missing any of
them all of my revenue from super chats
tonight is going to say just a soup
kitchen here in the East Village Cheers
hmm Oh so nice all you smell when you're
drinking it all you smell is the orange
zest so you're just like wow that's a
dig into this orange juice and then it
just it mellows right down and all you
get is like that classic eggnog flavor
with a little hit of a mild citrus no
acidity because it's just it's just zest
so it's just that orange flavor with no
with no acidity mm-hmm that's really
good I am not lactose intolerant but I'm
not like great with it so I'm gonna go
ahead and give this thus where that's
where you want to come in that you want
this yes I want that all right come on
in here we're we're very close he
doesn't mind drinking out of the same
glasses idea Cheers tell me what you
think tell me if it reminds you of
Greg's it's death yeah yeah it's uh it's
really trippy to hear myself talk right
next to you yes yeah here Cheers all
right I'm gonna have more stuff for you
soon okay I think our simples done says
Jake as soon as you get back if you
could switch over to camera two there we
go
three two one how did he get it ladies
and ladies and gents okay so I'm not
gonna let this steep like I said before
I'm not gonna let it steep because we
well we just don't have time so I'm
gonna grab a big old measuring cup here
and I'm going to strain the rosemary out
of it and reserve the liquid which is
our burnt rosemary simple syrup here we
go there we go you see it's got this
nice color to it
simple simple syrup definitely takes on
like a little bit of a yellowish hue
this is it's almost green from all the
vegetation that we've got going on
so let me just get all the eggs off my
hand here
I also need more paper towels I'm sorry
folks I'll just grab some paper towels
from down here I wish we had it like a
mobile camera so I could give you guys
like a tour of the whole place okay dude
there we go soon one day yeah maybe for
some special occasion like four million
subscribers or something like that all
right there we go we got us some burnt
rosemary simple syrup and it's obviously
very hot right now so be very careful
and we want to let that cool completely
before we make any cocktails out of it
so the next that means the next cocktail
we need to make is the other one what
was it
it owes butter drum make some butter
drum here we go that's a that's a that's
an old favorite of your boy babbies let
me grab a bowl we've got to make some
gotta make the buttered part um let me
just wipe down this countertop a little
bit it's got some booze juice on it I
feel like I should have a drink as well
like we're doing a cocktail special and
I don't have a drink here so I'm just
gonna pour myself a little bit of
bourbon that's good enough for me I'll
tell you what my favorite go-to cocktail
has been recently and that is some of
this stuff I'm not sponsored right now
I'm just telling you the fact which is
that this is quite simply the finest
cells are known to man it's blueberry
lemonade seltzer from polar and this
with a little bit it's a tequila in it
and a squeeze of lemon juice
it was just like unbelievable and and if
you use tequila it's virtually calorie
free it's just like the calories of the
tequila no carbs no sugar I believe I
can remember if there's sugar so sugar
and tequila I can't remember no carbs I
know I mean okay there's no carbs and
then there has to be no sugar this is a
dirty glass yeah get a clean glass ooh
oh yeah let me get my Big Daddy baby
glass hair bow okay
some of this basil Hayden's probably
let's get into this once I can opener
come on
thank you let's see we got some more
folks here giving very generous
donations 20 canadian dollars from
Shivam maharaj thank you so much I love
Edo I love your show do what makes you
happy
fabulous advice do what makes you happy
obviously that's that's hard to do
sometimes it's just about you know how
can you find happiness in what you do
sometimes and I'm so so lucky I get to
do what makes me happy every day I get
to do what I do for a living makes me
happy so I'm extremely lucky and it's
not the case for everybody and it's just
you know this is a great book called
flow that I'm a huge fan of that's where
and I were taught back in high school
flow is an amazing amazing philosophical
concept of finding those sort of
activities or just just just finding
those those mental moments when you are
doing what really you were meant to do
which is just you know something where
as you're doing it the rest of the world
just disappears and falls away
nothing else matters in that moment for
me that's cooking and editing it's like
nothing else in the world exists when
I'm editing or what I'm cooking it's
just that and I'm very lucky that I get
to do those for a living but it's it's
just about sort of finding that that
mindset it's it's a more complicated
concept than I can really get into right
now in this live stream where I'm making
cocktails but cheers guys thank you very
much for in the words of Nick weed 420
it was YouTube his YouTube channel his
rest is long gone rest in peace Nick
weed 420 420 CA cheers guys cheers guys
Nick Nick Nick 420 CA that's it I would
love to hear somebody in the comments
remember what kind of videos he made yes
I'll be watching
ten dollars from Boston 36 spelled
phonetically
you're the best babish thank you so much
thank you for your for your donation
cheers for the entertainment mr. ray I
think you were giving us cause to help
here's a few quid from Wales thanks to
the shiny place appreciate it five
pounds five quid sorry
which I know is the same thing but I
just wanted to be culturally correct
okay so next thing we're doing is Hot
Buttered Rum the Martin crane special
it's gonna put that over there
sorry it's get a little crowded over
here let me clear my workspace a little
bit that's a really good thing to get in
a habit of doing as a cook is keeping
your workspace clear right now mine's
really hilariously
cluttered every inch of space outside of
view of this camera is just crowded with
crap like I got my new scale over here
I'm really excited to use this I've been
using that crappy Cuisinart scale
forever I'll get that out of the way
okay here's the brown sugar that I need
or for the Buttered Rum so for the
butter drum we need a cup of brown sugar
if I remember correctly let me take a
look yeah a cup of brown sugar if you
don't have brown sugar you could
substitute with white sugar and add a
little bit of molasses that would work
just fine because that's essentially
what brown sugar is it's just it's just
white sugar with a bit of molasses in it
and then we need a stick of butter which
this is a badass stick you probably
pushing it a little bit I think I'll do
a little bit less than that this isn't
exactly the healthiest drink in the
world I'm not trying to be like that's
probably a stick actually now that I
look if I cut it in half if I cut it in
half and put it back to back yeah it's a
stick just put that in there
doesn't look like it's quite softened
enough yet we'll see if I can actually
get this to mix all right so then to
that sorry
excuse me for just one moment I have to
run over to the spice rack again so I
gotta get some cinnamon that does it
though luckily it's right in front of me
oh I want some other stuff though I want
some clove I want some ground clove whoo
Graham ginger yeah just think like you
know think apple pie spice
and you're gonna be just fine okay
so do this I'm going to add and I'm just
gonna eyeball this I dare you to try and
screw this up like I did you could if
you added this whole bottle of cinnamon
yeah you're gonna screw it up but if you
just put a nice sprinkle of it like that
that's probably a roughly a tablespoon I
guarantee you it's gonna be just fine a
little bit of ground ginger that's gonna
be great you know OOP oh that's a fresh
well I feel bad opening this because I
have like four containers of open ginger
over there and I'm just taking little
bits from each of them as time goes on I
don't want to leave you guys again
though so never again we got some more
contributions here I just saw a $10 one
disappear sorry but thank you very much
for your very generous donations folks
we got a little bit of ground ginger in
here I'm just going to put that was
probably a teaspoons worth I'm gonna do
less allspice allspice is pretty potent
I just want to do like a half a teaspoon
of that and even less of cloves cloves
are extremely potent so I just wanna let
go just a Boop it's probably like an
eighth of a teaspoon of course and
that's gonna be a [ __ ] okay so we got
our butter in there we got some brown
sugar cinnamon oh of course a little bit
freshly grated nutmeg you can't go wrong
with this stuff folks you can't I
promise there we go and now I'm gonna
grab tiny whisks big brother normal size
whisk and okay that yeah butter is
pretty firm it's probably gonna make me
look pretty stupid on camera right now
yeah it it totally is it's okay we can
do this
it's gonna mash her up okay all the
butter stuff aside whoops oh dear okay
well I called it I said that this is
gonna make me look
about the only solution I know for
getting butter and stuff out of wiskus
to use a butter knife like this just
press it back out should have let the
butter soften up completely or I should
have melted it or something it's okay
you live in your learn I thought I could
tempt fate there we go let's get them a
lot of there so now what I'll probably
do you know you know I'll do instead
this whisk I was a fork that will be a
couple for us actually
Oh would be way easier stop making me
look dumb maybe just one fork will say
it's gonna match this guy up I'm feeling
a lot like a youtuber that's slower and
I watch a lot right now I won't say who
yeah we'll see um anyway we're mashing
up this butter here over here this is
where we have the second fork there we
go okay who saw the new trailer for for
the reboot of Hellboy with David listens
named David crap the guy from stranger
things who I have a huge man crush on
David Schwimmer no what no watch what
stranger things dog get on my level I'll
stop saying that I said it twice tonight
it's twice too many push too many times
okay there we go that's coming it's
coming together now we just want this
like creamy you know kind of a mixture
of butter and sugar that we can either
just eat with a spoon
we can add some booze to it well booze
cruise David Harbour get David Harbor
thank you thank you I collect I thought
of it audience I thought of it myself I
figured it out in my mind
Wow nice dude that's awesome I'm sorry
for jumping off camera folks um I need
to fill up my teapot here I got to get
some boiling water gone
where this here Buttered Rum not boiling
but we want it nice and hot and you
could really do a lot of different
things with this you could make like you
know a hybrid Buttered Rum hot toddy
that would be cool you know use some
chamomile tea squeeze a lemon and there
would be perfectly welcome sugar in
there there we go yeah David Harbour is
just a gorgeous guy but the reason I
asked about that trailer is frankly I'm
not feeling it that seems like the tone
was just off seems like it was way too
silly and I don't know I just
anyway who's going to see yeah what's
that movie coming out Christmas Day that
we're gonna go see I can't remember I
always go see a movie Christmas day if I
can and I always do this I hope you guys
this is a tradition I would love for
everybody else to to take part in if
you're gonna go see a movie Christmas
Day just take a step back and think like
what would it be like to have to work in
a movie theater on Christmas Day even if
you're not religious or you know I'm not
religious but like even if you don't
celebrate Christmas or if you know
whatever if everybody else in the world
is you know with their families or or
just celebrating or relaxed in their own
way and you got to work in a movie
theater which I've worked in a movie
theater before and that [ __ ] is rough
and you know just what I always do is I
go to CVS and I get a three or a four
pack of those iTunes or Starbucks gift
cards and just to eat to the ticket
holder go to the ticket taker guy to the
concession person just give them a
little gift card just be like hey Merry
Christmas
and I guarantee that movies gonna be
better than any movie you ever seen it's
something about it where it's just like
it's a nice little thing to do and I the
reason I do I do is because somebody did
it for me
when I was in Luke and working in a
movie theater I was working there
Christmas Eve and somebody came in and
gave us all
Lindt chocolates Lindt chocolate
truffles and a Starbucks gift card and
it was just like the nicest thing I
wouldn't recommend giving food that
seems like a poor idea because I don't
know it just seems like a scary thing to
do when I was a big mouthful that a lot
that was a lot oh that's really good
I mean it's butter and sugar you
practically could eat that was when
you'd get so sick but boy it's really
good okay so here we go getting this
sprinkles crap oh come on there we go
there we go okay and now just a little
bit oh crap just wash your spoons yes
okay when you grab a mug got us a mug
here I should probably stop brewing this
tea it's been brewing like forever okay
I got some boiling water mug and you
need some dark rum where's my dark rum
here we go this is just some Bacardi
dark rum and I'm just gonna fill it like
like a it's probably like a quarter cup
in there yeah solid how much isn't a
shot two ounces I'm just gonna do like a
shot and a half fish don't quote me on
that I can't remember how much how much
isn't how much isn't a shot somebody
look that up and then I just got a big
old freaking dollop of this butter sugar
mixture really generous dollop and I'm
just gonna hit it with the hot water and
that my friends is it like that's it Hot
Buttered Rum
the most soothing healing soul quenching
holiday drink least healthy richest it's
just so good to make sure that's stirred
enough so that all the solids are melted
that's the will Chuck a couple little
chunks of sugar there that a brown sugar
is pretty hold so it's got some chunks
in there there we go alright that's it
folks we got some Hot Buttered Rum mmm I
mean I shouldn't have had a whole
spoonful of this cuz now that tastes
like not sweet enough but I know it is I
know objectively it is it's just got
like this layer of butter floating on
the top it's a little emulsified like
it's not like gross but you can clearly
see this layer of fat on top and you
just like mmm it's so simple it's so
nice it could totally use a nice squeeze
of lemon like I think that that would be
really good in there give it a shot I
don't have a squeeze of lemon though I
have our orange juice oh no I do I have
a lemon let's try it I have a lemon
let's see what happens I'm gonna use
this for the few other cocktails I can't
use a lot of it but let's see here
little squeeze let's see what that does
I don't know if this is traditional I
don't know if people do this I'm just
tasting it's just so it's so rich gonna
be nice to have a little acid to cut
through all that let's see hmm yeah I
was right that's really good hmm oh
that's really good okay well that's
hitting me right in my soul send me
right in my heart it's skipping my
stomach all together and it's just
dripping directly into my heart
those are we good okay let's see ah
let's see what people are up to here I
want to read some comments before I get
back into it all right why is this place
my comment window so small I don't I pop
out the comment window I can't see
anything back here we go yeah and I can
see you all what's up folks
why eat boy anyone know if he went to
culinary school I did not go to culinary
school I am just an enthusiastic
hobbyist got some got some bags under my
eyes man I get more sleep let's see do a
pizza pies okay what music do you like
babish i like a lot of things men
recently Sawyer got me back into tame
impala and listened them forever and he
put on a song there's the other day and
it really captured my imagination hi
from Florida why is your forum shaved I
just got some fresh it's got some fresh
ink through those for anybody who's
wondering it's Oliver babish is
quote-unquote big hammer I'm holding my
arm in this position for the rest of the
show because it apparently made me look
very vascular so I'm just gonna keep it
like this
I guess it's it's Oliver babish his
gavel given to his father by justice
Louis Brandeis who I believe was a
pioneer in civil rights yeah he was a
pretty cool Supreme Court justice I mean
he had to be if they liked him on the
west wing don't get me get political
here but anyway um so I'm gonna get
these tea bags out of here because I'm
worried about over steeping I mean I
know I've over steeped this but like I
want to max out that smoky flavor
there's nothing wrong with that nothing
wrong with that I'm just gonna snip
these the odds of me untangling all
those are just zilch
that here we go that was easier okay let
me toss these got a nice pot of lapsang
tea here very strong lapsang it's still
pretty warm I think what I'm probably
gonna have to do is normally you just
make the punch alone and then pour it
over ice serve it and you know put ice
and cups and ladle it over ice I think
what I'm probably have to do is add ice
to the to the punch itself and just make
it very strong it'll dilute the flavors
but it's you know we need to we need
this to cool down a little but we're
doing pretty good here and we're already
an hour deep and I mean you know we're
almost finished here we already did to
the cocktails but mmm I'm gonna have to
make one of these for Brody when he gets
here mmm yeah that little hit of lemon
it was really nice it's really it really
did it makes it much so much more
drinkable like Hot Buttered Rum is very
drinkable obviously but it's so rich
that you don't have the stamina for it
oh it's like it's so rich that you have
to like take a breather
every few sips and this just makes it
just so much easier to drink okay mmm oh
that's so good okay hi from Belfast hi

back to drink Megan let's put our
together that's what we're gonna do let
me grab my my punch bowl

I'd like to be that short but I could
definitely use a few extra wrenches
there we go okay all right so we got
wipe this out a little dusty this is
really my trifle I'm sure you guys
notice that this is my my trifle dish
from the Rachel's authentic English
trifle episode of binging but it also
makes perfectly fine Jun Chuo low in a
pinch punch bowl punch in a pinch it
makes it perfectly fine a punch bowl
intention go nice little wipe down
looking good okay so first thing we need
to do is fill it up the fruit let these
things cool off as long as we possibly
can cuz they're still hot so I got some
oranges here just some plain old oranges
now I know that there was a step where I
made something that I cannot remember
how to pronounce it was a it was a fruit
oil simple syrup where you'd basically
peel a bunch of lemons and oranges and
you'd um you mix them with sugar muddle
them with sugar and let them sit for 24
hours and that brings out you know all
these all these fruit oils so again no
citrus no message respond no acid and
that it's just that the the fruit flavor
being extracted and I didn't have time
to do that so what we're gonna do is
just I'm gonna squeeze a bunch of lemon
juice in there I'm just gonna I think
with these lemons instead of slicing
them up and putting it in there I think
I'm just gonna squeeze lemon juice in
there no it's gonna add a whole bunch of
acid what am I saying I'm gonna squeeze
a couple of these oranges in there I
have lots of oranges so that's fine let
me lose all these labels here let's
let's all try to lose labels okay guys
it's 20 it's almost 20 19 let's get rid
of labels okay no more labels I've got
these or nice organic fruits
lots of tags on them just the way God
intended what are you guys up to here we
got so we got some more donations here

best ratings from Sweden always wondered
what is your favorite drink hmm I mean
you know I keep saying old fashioned
that's my favorite go-to I've certainly
had better drinks than an old fashioned
if I had to choose a favorite go-to
problem
my other favorite drink I love
penicillins and I love Moscow mules
they're not very seasoned right now but
they're very very nice so what was on
the look at these are some cara cara
oranges so they've got this nice red
flesh you can get blood oranges or cara
cara we're just regular oranges I'm not
gonna tell you how to how to live your
life I wish I had a sharper knife right
now this knife desperately needs a
sharpening it's giving me a little bit
of grief that's okay this is mostly for
decoration but like it's also you're
also gonna ladle it into people's
glasses if you're having you know if
you're on a party or people are gonna
ladle it into their own glasses and then
you get that nice little a little bit of
fruit flavor and you don't to eat it you
can even just rip it out whenever I have
them what's it called
whenever I have sangria I always end up
eating the fruit so I don't think of it
as wasted at all this has the thickest
rind I've ever seen on an orange look at
that
why look at that that's ridiculous like
that okay it's okay
it's just for decor and flavor and it's
just me and Sawyer and Evan drinking all
this tonight and we have to drink all of
it okay otherwise we're being wasteful
and I won't have that in my house so we
have to drink all of it let's get these
cara cara oranges in there then these I
think are just traditional oranges yeah
so slice these guys up I can't want to
eat one of these I love of good fresh
orange you know what next month is or is
it January or February that is what's
called honeybell Orange season and for
those of you who don't know if you're a
Seinfeld fan they kind of did a little
tribute to to this they they had Kramer
be obsessed with these fictional peaches
called Mackinaw peaches and it's just
these you know peaches that are
incredibly flavorful and juicy and the
real iteration of that is honeybell
oranges that these Florida oranges hmm
that's a good orange I can't complain
they're these Florida oranges
that's aren't incredibly juicy and
incredibly flavorful when you eat it
it's like you're drinking an orange it's
unreal and just so everybody knows it
makes a great gift to order some you
know obviously they're not coming out
for another two months they're only ripe
for a month a year and they are
expensive they're like 60 bucks for a
you know a bushel of them but it's a
nice you have to do for somebody who you
don't know what to get them for the man
who has everything
some nice
honeybell oranges are a pretty good way
to go this is filling up really fast so
I'm gonna go ahead and stop putting
oranges in there and I'm gonna do a
little bit of lemon here where's that
lemon on there there's the lemon I
hacked open let's get a couple of lemon
slices in there
I'm less thrilled about these because
they got seeds in them
and these oranges are gracefully
seedless what's cool is the fact that
I'm not using all these is that I get to
eat the rest I love oranges so okay if
you can't tell what my orange rantings
right now I freaking love oranges
okay one more Kara Kara that's all I
want Christmas one more just for a
little bit of color let's start slicing
this normally know why I'm doing this
shallow of stupid little slices mmm oh
they're a little tart it's almost like I
know it's not a hybrid of an orange and
a grapefruit because that's not
something that you can do but it's like
that it's got the tartness a little bit
of bitterness like a grapefruit but it's
got the flavor of an orange it's lovely
okay all right that's too much fruit
it's okay and these are nice and cold so
hopefully that's gonna chill everything
down here this is still really hot all
right what else is going in here oh man
we got we still got more more donations
here we got don't have much but glad to
help those in need since dr. bangs thank
you so much I appreciate especially if
you don't have much to give that's

what is your favorite episode of Frasier
happy holidays well I can tell you
exactly what my favorite episode of
Frasier is oh god I thought I was gonna
have the season an episode number off
the top my head this is the signal for
Sawyer to look it up quietly right now
whatever it's good it's in season eight
I think or nine eight or nine it's
called taking liberties and it's stars
guest stars the great Victor Garber we
might know from like everything because
he's in so much stuff I think he was in
Downton Abbey he was he he was he was in
Sicario isn't so much stuff he plays
episode 5 season 8 episode 5 taking
liberties it's it's when Fraser gets a
butler played by Victor Garber and it
has some of the best Frasier Niles
interplays of all time and it is a
constant reminder how amazing it would
have been if Victor Garber had become a
new minor character on the show so it
it's a little upsetting to watch but so
it sounds the great the great media of
our time anyway just thought of coming
down here and tell you that okay so

PLMS and said hi I thank you for your
donation it is going to a good cause
thank you ok back to work folks I'm just
killing time right now because this is
all still hot and I'm not entirely sure
what to do about it
pardon me hmm I guess in the meantime we
can just sort of have a drink and hang
out a little bit
yeah I've collected a couple questions
if you want to roll through that hang on
we just got one question coming in from
a super chatter Miranda Lesk gave five
Canadian dollars what's the best meal to
make to make for a one-girl Christmas
dinner when I spent Thanksgiving alone a
few years ago I wasn't able to afford to
go home and I my roommates all went out
of town so I was just alone on
Thanksgiving I just I butterfly a turkey
breast and did a roulade with the turkey
breast kind of like what I did for the
the who the how the Grinch Stole
Christmas roast beast but with a single
turkey breast and you you cut it open
the same way that we opened up the pork
loin cut it open like a book spread your
stuffing on there roll it up cover it in
its own skin and roast it and it makes a
great little Thanksgiving or any kind of
holiday meal Christmas meal for one or
two it's a really nice way to go I'm
sorry if you're alone during the
holidays I know I mean I'm not sorry if
that's what you want to do like I know
it's nice to be alone I like me alone
mm-hmm but um if if you're alone and you
and you'd rather be with family I'm
sorry to hear that and I'm glad that
you're here hanging out with with other
people I oh sorry we got a we got a
hundred dollar donation from Sean biram
Byram who's your favorite character from
the gay and wondrous life of caleb Gallo
introduced you to a year or two ago I
think you did I'm not entirely sure you
are but thank you for introducing me to
it my favorite character there's only
one right answer to this and that is
freckle is the best character on the gay
and wondrous life of Kelly Kelly gala
anyway thank you so much for an
incredibly generous donation it's going
to a good cause thank you so much and
thank you for introducing me to the game
wonders left cabe gallo so what was the
question sorry
first of all I just wanted to note that
somebody was playing our favorite game
of all time Max Payne 3 and they noted
that the guy at the end when he shaves
his head looks kind of like you so
that's cool that's also the nicest thing
that has ever said to me so thank you
yeah cuz that guy is cool that's right
that is a compliment hell yeah yeah
sticking with gaming somebody asked you
to do the lobster bisque from Red Dead
Redemption have we just not gotten there
yes yeah we haven't gotten there yet
we're we're going slow okay we're gonna
slow we're busy I want to be master
hunters with our jobs okay we got a
request for a buck Strickland's hot
toddies which reminded me of buck
offering those hot toddies too - you
know Bobby you are a hot daddy hot
toddies come to yours - that's good
alright so those are necessarily
questions but that was what was on my
mind as for questions we got a request
for you to do food from American Psycho
we've been over this but what do they
got like you know fancy rich man's foods
yeah the stuff from Dorsia which is the
the restaurant that he's done dying to
go to it's like sea urchin pasta I mean
it's fancier than that that's that's
actually pretty good
no it's like these impossibly fancy
dishes I've always been curious about it
but it does sound extremely challenging
but it's definitely on my mind
alright great here we got one from
caffeinated addiction they wanted to
know what your last meal would be but
interestingly their last meal would be
coconut tapioca with spicy pineapple
which does sound delicious but it sounds
too quick it's a snack you know you got
to have something to meal yeah that's
what you get at the end
yeah I'm trying I'm trying to fill up
I'm trying to get it all if it's my last
meal I'm trying to get it all I'm trying
to get it all I just that's what I like
the most
and I just want to know what that tastes
like um sorry just rattling off inside
jokes my last meal I'm guessing it's the
meal that's most consistently made me
roll my eyes back in my head out of
pleasure you know just like oh like oh
my god and that is before you know like
particularly I think probably the if
maybe not the best one I've ever had but
one of the best and one of the richest
and most over-the-top and like just the
the most exaggerated version of the dish
I've ever had is from crap what's the
call hang on hand I'm gonna look it up
sorry um French restaurants in
Yountville Bistro gentil that's it
horizonte it's you know Yountville is
filled with like French Laundry and
Bouchon Bistro and all these amazing
restaurants and the there are still some
great restaurants there that aren't
constantly packed so you can get a rest
a reservation and be sore shanthi like
anytime you want and they have amazing
food there they had the best easily the
best [ __ ] Levin I've ever had but one of
the best one of the most unique both
burgundy islands have ever had it's like
pure short rib it's just these big hunks
of perfectly marbled short rib and the
sauce is so rich and so decadent there's
a picture of it on my Instagram if you
go to like I think it was probably July
of this past year you'll see you'll see
a book bringing you home with these long
chives shaved on top of it and and it's
just the most over-the-top boeuf
bourguignon I think I would that that
would be my last meal sorry what's the
next question I went too far no that was
great
I want to go there the last question I
saved for last because it's the longest
conversation from Stumpjumper is dog
town the best garbage plate
okay I'm gonna go ahead and embarrass
myself pretty good right now
I don't think remember that's fine
that's fine I mean you know where it is
done yeah yeah it's the one on Monroe
Ave yes wait over by tu lab oh okay yes
yes yeah thank you just say you lab yeah
the the e lab dog Hart's place I've
never been that one's good it's good but
it's not my favorite my favorites
hometown baby P hots brother P half away
any of the hots ones like H hotspots
it's all the same company yeah I'm not a
big Nick Tahoes guy I'm not I'm not you
know sorry if that makes me a snob but
um so I'm just throwing just just FYI
just give you an idea of what I'm doing
right now I figured these are pretty
strong like this is really strong tea so
it's not gonna hurt if I dilute it a
little bit just to cool it down so I'm
just throwing a couple couple ice chunks
in there it doesn't matter if it's I
don't care if it's not cold I just don't
want it to be hot and this is like hot
so I'm just gonna do that little sir
it's not hot it's just like it's still
very warm it's perfectly good simple
syrup deal I mean I was about to lick
that knife and that was that would just
be a mistake let me let me grab one my
little tasting spoons my ex my ex-wife
gave me these tasty it's messed up to
say but it's true anyway oh wow Wow okay
that's awesome
it'sit's fully tastes like burnt burnt
razmik
it's so good Wow and it's totally like
cooled off that that cooled it right off
the Siam warm anymore I think this is
fine too all right so I think we're
ready to assemble I have way too many
orange slices in here so I'm gonna go
ahead and take a few out I'm slowly like
it's way too much it's gonna take out
some of the normal orange slices keep
all the Caracara in there let me eat
these because I don't know if you heard
me before but we're gonna love oranges
let me eat one right now sorry Soph man
my fingers mmm okay here we go now I
have too much of each here this is too
much tea this is too much simple syrup
as I learned when I'm shot that episode
I added way too much simple syrup it was
way too sweet hmm so as a result I will
be doing this by pretty much the the
method by which you should make any
given cocktail which is by taste this
has a tab on it come on
so I'm just gonna be adding gin I'm
gonna be adding lapsang and I'ma be
adding simple syrup until it reaches the
correct mixture of the three and we're
just gonna we're just gonna say a little
prayer I'm gonna start with the gym
because I haven't I have a feeling of
how strong I want it to be I'm just
gonna add about maybe half the bottle
more it's which is you know this is a
seven or 15 milliliter bottle so that's
what that's roughly dish I have two cups
I believe I'm sure I'm wrong I'm
positive I'm wrong so please don't do
the math and prove me wrong I know I'm
wrong and then I'm gonna add maybe half
of this tea oh why do they make these
impossible poured always spills that
just drives me wild and now I'm going to
add maybe about half of this lat of this
simple syrup just to start and then what
I'm gonna do I'm gonna make sure that I
didn't miss anything
lapsang gin triple sec I almost forgot
about the triple sec there we go this is
gonna bring some more orange flavor to
it this is another thing that I do to
deviate from
the serious safe eats recipe 1/2 cup of
triple sec triple sec is usually a
pretty low grade alcohol you know this
this this guy costs like seven bucks I
think so it's not like the highest
quality alcohol the world that's just to
bring some flavor bring some more orange
flavor to the to the party my littlest
ladle that's the best tiny whisks cousin
is the littlest ladle and I've way too
many citrus slices um it's okay it's
okay I think I probably need more tea
just eyeball there we go and this should
results in a nice smoky Irby punch so
let me grab a spoon
give it a little tasty case words my
buddy Brad Brad Leonie oh we can have
him on with live streams and I feel like
he'd have fun here what yeah well if
he's ever done a live stream with his
outfit whoo could use a little bit more
sweetness actually oh there he is Jake
can you get that
old doorbells joy you want me to check
it I mean could be the could be the
thief again oh alright leave it there
money texting that says yeah it's not
with the thief in it's just the thief
somebody has been legitimately stealing
packages and just ripping my packages
open and not taking anything when it's
like you know my new kitchen scale and
my new my new rolling pin they just they
just rip it open and just like oh this
isn't worth stealing so what I'm doing
right now in case you're wondering is
I'm rolling the orange I'm here I should
probably be showing this instead of
doing it you know the place for this
counter space here we go orange down
flatter your palm press it hard this is
gonna make it easier to juice and I'm
gonna grab a little little strainer
because I don't feel like using my hand
to catch all the seeds because then I
have to wash my hand I don't feel like
doing that okay that must be him all
right hello alright I'll let him in but
I'm not calling I'm not calling him up I
don't trust but could didn't sell that
didn't sound like the thief but that was
it wasn't the thief well I would hope
that Bernie wouldn't say hi delivery
that would just be deceitful alright so
what this really does need is some acid
it's very very smoky and rich and well
the freight elevator just went nuts
alright so it's it's very smoky it's
very very rich and need and need some
acid so I'm gonna squeeze this if not
every other bit of lemon juice that I
have in there and hopefully that will
solve the problem give that a little
stir
okay punches nearly done
that looks cool but with the high
shutter speed no blur you know looks
like an action movie like Spielberg on
the early two-thousands okay let's give
that a shot
hmm okay that's pretty much there yeah
that's exactly where I want that look I
know it's just the juice of one lemon
but that was enough to make it just come
to life a little bit so now the
procedure is to be a hipster and serve
it in a mason jar and let out a nice
nice chunky rock I just like that and
I'm gonna go ahead and ladle some and I
guarantee I must spill it everywhere
here we go yep I did
okay this is you know an office cocktail
party nobody's trying to trying to keep
their decorum okay I should what it
should have done is cut these orange
slices into in two halves because then
we're running into this issue where it's
not fitting there we go a little bit
more there we go and there we have a
nice and we get one more slice of citrus
in there so it looks nice we go got
ourselves a nice smoky lapsang punch
with citrus and gin and a smoked or a
burnt rosemary simple syrup and it is
really hmm yeah special once you get a
nice and chilled like that that's really
something special that's something
that's gonna get you nice and messed up
at the company Christmas party you make
you make some decisions you're gonna
regret because yeah it doesn't it tastes
like juice it tastes like fruit juice
like or smokey fruit juice no it doesn't
taste like fruit juice what I mean is it
doesn't taste like it has alcohol in it
and it's it's I'm sure it's pretty
strong as a half of all
there but um it's it's just like
pleasant to drink it's not summery
despite all the citrus all the smoke
from the lapsang and from the smoked
simple syrup make it very wintry this is
perfect for the season it's even though
this is iced down
it feels warming it feels comforting
it's very of the season so that's our
three cocktails and with that I'm just
gonna answer a few more questions and
then we're gonna call it a night
it's gonna be a quick stream this is the
[100:01] last one twenty to twenty eighteen folks
[100:03] and yeah we got I have two more episodes
[100:06] to shoot before I can go home because I
[100:09] want to have what I have those those I
[100:14] wanna have two ready one for Christmas
[100:16] day and one for New Year's Day because
[100:17] those both happen to be Tuesdays so
[100:20] let's see what are folks saying here
[100:22] we've got 10 euros I'm huge Evil Dead
[100:29] fan years ago when I saw one of your
[100:31] earlier episodes I checked your uploads
[100:33] was delighted to see an Evil Dead clip
[100:34] love that it's still there yeah there's
[100:36] a couple little videos that I didn't
[100:38] have the heart to take down there's the
[100:40] me testing the miracle blade
[100:43] there's the mashup of the 300 trailer
[100:46] with Evil Dead and then there's the the
[100:50] trailer for waterproof which is a
[100:51] documentary this Sawyer and Rasheed and
[100:54] I worked on when when we were freshmen
[100:58] in college we went to New Orleans and
[101:00] here I'm gonna get down and talk to you
[101:01] guys face to face get this a um I guess
[101:03] this is nice to have any frame and then
[101:05] I just have it off to the side here it's
[101:08] part of the party so yeah I'm all about
[101:11] symmetry I want to keep things centered
[101:13] that's dead center right there okay
[101:18] alright so home yeah if you go look at
[101:22] my oldest youtube videos there are a
[101:23] couple remnants from my film school days
[101:25] and from days immediately after college
[101:28] and yeah I didn't have the heart to take
[101:33] them down
[101:33] it hurts my
[101:35] YouTube's standing somehow to have
[101:38] really old videos because then it shows
[101:40] this inconsistency in upload where you
[101:42] know one video came out five years ago
[101:44] then the next one came out three years
[101:46] ago and it's like oh this guy's bad at
[101:48] uploading but I don't have the Artic
[101:50] take those down well I was a lot of what
[101:54] looks like Greek being spoken right now
[101:57] let's see we got what was the question
[102:05] oh it was about Evil Dead yeah and then
[102:07] there was this trend back in when 300
[102:09] came out was to take the trailer which
[102:11] was immediately recognizable at the time
[102:13] you could be like oh that's 300 trailer
[102:15] because everybody had seen it and mash
[102:17] it up with any other movie and for me it
[102:19] was 300 meets army of Darkness bald yes
[102:24] I am bald and proud too that's the other
[102:26] part oops I'm just fell am i saying it's
[102:29] copy my last super chat I'm sorry I
[102:31] missed it Jacklyn Azadi it's copy with
[102:35] my last super chat if you ever made
[102:36] colossal basically a fish stew
[102:38] overloaded with paprika it's a Hungarian
[102:40] Christmas staple I can't say that I have
[102:43] it sounds similar to fabric - maybe I
[102:46] don't know but I'm curious about it now
[102:49] so I'll check that out I love anything
[102:50] with spaetzle if it has spaetzle oh my
[102:54] hand is just I was dipping it in the
[102:56] cocktail hang on a second hang Daddy
[103:02] clean up a little bit okay okay there we
[103:14] go okay so just one more time make one
[103:19] more push anybody who is willing to give
[103:22] a super chat right now all of my cut
[103:25] 100% of my super chat revenue is going
[103:28] to st. Joseph's soup kitchen here in the
[103:32] East Village in New York City great
[103:34] organization doing great things they're
