Hi guys welcome to Drinks Tube I'm Jonny of The Craft Beer channel and today I'm here with Mamrie Hart.
Of You Deserve A Drink.
I'm back baby.
And I think we both deserve a drink.
Mhmm!
But we have to make it ourselves.
What?
I know right.
I'm on vacay.
But you love cocktails right?
Love them!
I love beer. So we're going to make beer cocktails.
This is actually a challenge for me because I have never used beer in my drinks.
I don't think I've ever made a cocktail so it's a challenge for me too.
Don't say that, so that when you win it looks like I'm terrible.
Okay?
Don't set the bar that low Jonny.
So we've got a classic European style in a wheat beer.
They're from Pressure Drop, they're British from London.
And we've got a classic American style from the guys that invented the craft beer revolution.
With their Sierra Nevada pale ale.
We have to choose between these 2 beers and we've got to make, well I've got to make a cocktail better than you.
It's show thyme.
...
That joke was mint.
So which one are you going to use?
Already copying me.
Okay I'm going to take this elsewhere and let you get on with ruining your cocktail.
Oh great you mean take notes and do exactly what I do?
Alright I think I'm going to go for like a strawberry basil lemonade.
With hefeweizen.
There we go.
Love it. Give these a little bit of a dice.
Alright time to muddle.
That's cute yea, that looks British and stuff.
Muddle it, put your muscle in to it.
That sounds disgusting.
I'm also going to grab a basil leaf. Basil, sorry.
It's called basil or basil?
Basil.
Okay.
Get all those oils nice and worked in.
Put the juice of half a lemon in there. My hands are clean, enough.
Got any colourful commentary over there Jonny?
I'm full of it.
I know.
You've got pips in there.
Yea I'm aware.
It's not going to be pleasant when you drink it.
I think I'm gonna go vodka.
Did it get cold in here? What's up?
I'm only going to use a half pour of vodka because it is going to be topped with beer.
So let's not go crazy. Fill it with ice.
Can't shake beer so I got that going.
That looks gorgeous. That looks like summer in a damn glass.
Then I'm going to top it with some hefeweizen.
Excuse you!
There we go, just gonna give it a little stir.
Make sure all the flavours are incorporated then I am going to garnish it with a little baby basil leaf.
And a berry.
Boom.
Get down in there.
That's right, this tastes like victory.
mmm
That's a very girly drink you made
Oh yeah I happen to be female
Mm?
I'm female
Yeah it's actually quite tasty
Yeah exactly uh huh!
But I think it's my turn to show you what I can do
I'm gonna make a really manly drink...I'm gonna make a twist on a mojito
What men do you hang out with?
Right I'm gonna make you up a Manly Mojito so first thing we need to do is get a load of mint
What?
I said more like a No-jito
Mint goes in, next thing lime
I think that's probably most of the glass filled with lime now so that should be fine
Get our rum in
You gonna give me a rum for my money? Psych not at all not even close
If there was a pun for vodka it would be all up in your grill right now but I don't have one
And then we're gonna add the beer
Leaving the whole limes in huh?
Yeah!
Bold choice
Oh! Shaky McShakerson and then a couple of bits of ice in
I'm putting the ice in last cos otherwise when you pour it it fizzes
As opposed to what it did without ice? When it fizzed completely over?
Yeah it kind of fizzed over
Got it
Well it was a good line
Good tip Jonny good tip
We'll do a cut there to something else, I'm gonna garnish it with a strawberry as well in lieu of the sugar
And cos I thought we needed it and it looked really nice
It got too manly!
Alright you don't wanna shake it up or anything? Ok!
Cheers
Oh she is critical
Oh sorry ladies first, do you wanna?
Sure!
No. No? No. No? No! No?
You gotta mix it up all I'm tasting is beer! Get all that fresh lime juice rocking
Okay take two!
Better! Not even close to mine though
I'll take better
This cocktail's quite #?£#
So my director tells me that I have to admit defeat there
You chose the weak, you got served defeat
Yeah you're probably right and that drink was genuinely delicious whereas I just ruined a good wheat beer sorry
