- Hi everyone!
Welcome back to the Cocktail Vlog,
I'm Steve the Bartender.
Hope you're all staying safe and well and staying home.
Today is going to be a relatively easy cocktail
with three ingredients of: Jagermeister, coconut rum,
and pineapple juice.
A Surfer on Acid.
So apparently, what's this guys name, Eric Tecosky,
back in the Ninety's had some customers come in,
a group of ladies.
And around that time there was
a shot going around called the Surfer on Acid.
These ladies asked the bartender for one of those shots.
He didn't know the recipe
and he was already working on a shot recipe at the time
that included Jagermeister, so therefore,
he experimented a little bit,
and this is what he came up with.
Nice and simple but the girls really loved it,
and then it kind of became a bit of a modern classic.
And there's been a lot of riffs on it.
I've seen variations where it calls
for a little bit of lime juice
and soda to lengthen it.
I've got another recipe,
that I'll share in the description below,
that looks kind of cool.
Super simple cocktail.
I've had a few people ask for it on the channel
but I haven't made it yet, so I'll make it now.
Nice and simple.
And for those who haven't yet,
I did a request I'm aiming
to hit 350,000 subscribers within like a month,
and if I can ask you guys to pick one cocktail
on the channel and share that on Instagram,
Facebook, or send it as a WhatsApp message to a friend,
that would be greatly appreciated.
Because once I do get to 350,000 subscribers,
I'm gonna do a shots video,
and I'm probably gonna do it as a live shots video.
So that will be quite entertaining, I feel.
So if you share, then I'll be doing shots.
So this cocktail, three ingredients, equal parts.
Start off with Jagermeister, German herbal liqueur.
And then thanks for Sam, for buying the back-bar.
Well, he didn't actually buy the back-bar on this one.
He just sent me the bottle.
Thank you. Awesome.
I haven't utilized Malibu in too many cocktails lately
and I'm assuming that there's going to be some people
that probably screw up the nose,
the fact that I'm using Malibu.
In Australia, there's not really any other
coconut rum options.
This does only sit at 21%
and I'm assuming that this is probably gonna
be the coconut rum that was used in the original recipe
because it was abundant, it was on every back-bar,
and around the Ninety's everyone was drinking this.
Then we've got fresh pineapple juice.
Thirty mil.
Try and get it in the shaker. (laughs)
Fill your cocktail shaker with ice
and give it a shake.
(ice cubes rattling)
(calming music)
(ice cubes rattling)
Strain it over fresh ice into a double old fashioned glass.
(calming music)
It's a really big glass.
I probably, 'cause I'm only doing 30 mil shots,
probably could've 45, 1.5 ounces, of each ingredient.
Either way, keep in in proportion.
And for garnish, slice a pice of lime
and then cut it at a little bit of an a angle
so you can rest it on the edge of the glass.
(ice cubes rattling)
And I'll fill it up with ice.
And typically, this is actually served as a shot,
I should mention, as well.
And I think it kind of evolved from there
and there's been bars that's been doing variations
and serving it as a drink.
So, there you have a Surfer on Acid.
Cheers!
(calming music)
I think it needs (laughs).
As a shot it would be pretty easy drinking.
I'm mean, Jagermeister's only 35% in Australia,
it might be different elsewhere,
21% for Malibu, pineapple juice.
It is light, it is pretty easy drinking.
I think this serves as a long drink,
maybe a little bit of lime juice might go quite well in it.
Which I'll give it a little bit of a test.
(calming music)
(knife clanking)
(calming music)
That's better.
Just that little bit of lime juice, just a single squeeze,
like that was probably like 5 mil.
I recon I'm gonna do this other recipe on hand
and follow it up in another video.
But stay tuned.
I'll see you soon in another cocktail video.
Stay safe.
Cheers.
