Ro: Hey guys it’s Ro! Welcome to another Nerdy Nummies, today I have a very
Ro: special guest… It’s Hannah! Hannah: Hello!
Ro: She has an awesome YouTube Channel, I’ll put a link down below for you
Ro: to go check it out! She’s also a fellow author you guys!
Ro: A fellow foodie! We spend a lot of time in the kitchen us ladies.
Hannah: Not all women though, you can do whatever you want with your life!
Ro: Yeah! And I thought, we gotta get together, we gotta hang out in
Ro: the kitchen and make something!
Ro: I got so many requests from you guys to make something from Fallout!
Ro: So I thought, let’s make some of our very own Nuka Cola and Nuka Cola Quantum!
Both: Let’s get started!
Ro: Oh!
Ro: The things you will need will be: A heat safe container, I’m using
Ro: this pyrex bowl, a pot, 2 cups of sugar, 2 cups of water, 1 package
Ro: of Kool-Aid, I’m using the blue raspberry lemonade to make our color.
Ro: The second thing that you’ll need is the soda stream cola syrup.
Ro: They have a ton of these, but we need the traditional cola syrup to make
Ro: our drinks today. A whisk, and a soda stream. You will also need…
Hannah: Some empty coke bottles, a bottle capper, 2 bottle caps of 2 different
Hannah: colors. A very nice pair of scissors and some sticker paper!
Ro: Now let’s put it all together!
Hannah: I love all these gestures!
Ro: The first thing that we’re gonna do is we're gonna take our pot, sugar, water,
Ro: packet of Kool-Aid, Pyrex measuring cup and whisk over to the stove.
Ro: Place your pot onto the stove and add your sugar and water, then turn
Ro: the heat to medium high and whisk together until the sugar is dissolved.
Ro: Let the mixture come to a boil and then boil for about 5 minutes.
Ro: Then turn your heat off and add the Kool-Aid powder, whisk together
Ro: again and pour into a heat safe container. I’m using a large Pyrex
Ro: glass measuring cup. Lastly you’re gonna let the mixture cool completely,
Ro: you can speed up the process by putting it into the fridge.
Hannah: OK, so while that’s cooling in the fridge, what should we do next?
Ro: We’re gonna be doing some arts and crafts, a little DIY up in this beezy!
Ro: So, we have our sticker paper, and what I’ve done is I’ve gone into photoshop
Ro: and I made these cute little templates to decorate our soda bottles.
Ro: So I’ll put a link down below if you’re interested in downloading the templates
Ro: that I made, or you can make your own, whatever you’d like.
Ro: But we have 2, we have the traditional Nuka Cola, and we have the
Ro: Nuka Cola Quantum Cola, and now we’re just gonna cut ‘em out, free hand it!
Hannah: OK, here we go. Ro: Alright, you got, oh you got the fancy scissors!
Hannah: I got the fancy scissors! So should I just cut these straight down the
Hannah: center, or?
Hannah: Oh my god this is my nightmare! Ro: No you’re doing good!
Hannah: It was always hard for me to color inside the lines, I was always like,
Hannah: but what about what’s outside the lines!?!?
Hannah: So now that we’ve made our labels, we’ve set them off to the side
Hannah: because if you put them on the bottle and then they get wet when
Hannah: you’re pouring your mixture in, you’re gonna ruin that label that
Hannah: you spent so much time making. So, that’s the last step.
Ro: Yeah, we don’t want to do that! Hannah: Hmmm-mmmm!
Ro: Now we are going to make our sodas, this is so exciting if you guys
Ro: haven’t used a soda stream before, don’t be scared! It’ no Deathclaw,
Ro: you don’t gotta worry about this little guy.
Ro: Deathclaw is a character in the game, he’s like the scariest monster guy.
Ro: So what you do is you fill your little soda stream bottle up to the line
Ro: with cold water. Hannah: Mmmhmmm, because cold water holds carbonation better.
Ro: Mmmhmmm, and then you’re just gonna stick him in here.
Hannah: And then you’re gonna press it down for 2 seconds, release,
Hannah: press down for 2 seconds and release. Want to give it a go? I’m
Hannah: scared a little bit. Ro: You do it, you can do it, you can do it!
Hannah: You want me to do it? Ro: 2 seconds! Hannah: OK, YOLO!
Ro: One, two!
Ro: It sounds like a spsaceship!
Hannah: Wow yeah, that looks nice and bubbly! Ro: That sounds like the future!
Ro: Now you’re gonna take your Kool-Aid syrup that we made earlier, it's had plenty of time to cool in the fridge,
Ro: and we're just going to slowly add a little, until you get the color that you want.
Hannah: Wow! Ro: Ooooh! Hannah: And now it’s radioactive?
Ro: Now I”m gonna put the cap on, doo-doo-doo! Tip it over, just to make sure
Ro: the syrup is all combined, and mix it…
Ro: Oop!
Ro: Just make sure the cap’s on tight before you do that.
Hannah: The more you know! Ro: Mmmhmm…
Hannah: Now I’m gonna do mine!
Hannah: So we carbonate, isn’t it great? Ro: Yeah!
Ro: One, two.
Ro: Two…
Ro: It sounds like Darth Vader!
Hannah: I’ll be making my Nuka Cola using the regular cola syrup,
Hannah: And I’m only gonna add a cap full, because that's… Oh, I was not expecting this.
Hannah: I really was expecting the length of the cap.
Ro: One of my vices is soda. Hannah: Really? Ro: I love soda.
Hannah: So this is a dangerous game you’re playing. Ro: Mmmhmm.
Hannah: Alright so just like Ro I’m going to make sure that it’s super tight,
Hannah: and flip it over. Ro: Huuuhhh!
Hannah: Huhh!
Ro: Now our sodas are ready, and it’s time to put them in the bottles, so…
Ro: We’re gonna open them up. Hannah: Oh I love that sound! Pschh!!
Ro: Me too! And we’ve got measuring cups with a little pour spigot to make
Ro: things a little bit easier, because transferring them between here and here
Ro: is a little bit messy!
Hannah: Don’t do it! Ro: No, I don’t trust myself!
Hannah: How much, ho much do we pour? Ro: Pour it in here, oh! 12 ounces.
Hannah: Whoa you nailed it! Ro: I did… What? Hannah: She nailed it!
Hannah: It’s right on twelve! You’re a natural! Ro: Wasn’t even looking!
Hannah: I’m gonna look because I often mis-measure.
Ro: You can do it girl! Hannah: Here we go. Ro: Get that science on!
Hannah: It’s twelve!
Ro: Alright, so we’re just gonna pour him in, hopefully I don’t drop these!
Ro: Doo-doo-doo-dooo! Hannah: Good thing it’s not a race…
Ro: Oh gah, oh gah, oh gah, oh gah, err-de, err-de, err-de!
Ro: You guys, this is so exciting, I’ve never made my own home made soda before!
Ro: Fallout is gonna be so proud of us!
Hannah: That looks, really good! Ro: That’s good! That’s good!
Hannah: That's really good! Ro: You can’t get any closer than that you guys!
Hannah: We have to let go!
Hannah: We’re gonna keep doing this, uh, for as many bottles as we want! Ro: Mmmhmm!
Hannah: But, within reason, because truly you should not drink that much sugar.
Ro: Yeah, probably you shouldn’t drink like ten of these. Hannah: Just heads up!
Ro: Just nine of them!
Ro: We are about to cap our bottles, but if you don’t have a bottle capper,
Ro: I wanted to show you a really easy alternative. I found these at a Michael’s
Ro: craft store, so I’ll put a link down below, they’re just twist off caps.
Ro: So if you don’t want to deal with bottle capping them, you can just get these
Ro: little guys.
Hannah: Wow, that’s so nifty!
Ro: This is really easy, these are about $20, and then bottle are like a penny apiece.
Ro: They’re very inexpensive. Hannah: Oh cool! Ro: And in the game, they’re a currency.
Hannah: Really? Bottle caps are currency in the game? Ro: Yeah! Hannah: Wow. Ro: Yeah!
Hannah: So we’re like millionaires!
Ro: Yeah, oh my gosh, look at how much bling we have!
Hannah: We have, we’re so rich! Too bad it’s a post-apocalyptic future you know?
Ro: I know it’s kinda sad… Hannah: Yeah. Ro: When you look at it.
Ro: I get the silver bottle caps and you’re gonna be using the red, so they’ll
Ro: match in the game.
Ro: Then you line it up on top, take this bad boy, you open him up, put him
Ro: right on top. Clamp him down, and then just press down. You got it!
Hannah: Huagh! Is that it? Ro: Yes, yes.
Hannah: Oh! Ro: That’s it! Hannah: I was really expecting some sort of video
Hannah: game reward noise, like a ding, can we put that in post? Ro: Yeah.
Ro: You got it! Hannah: Huagh!
*Ding*
Hannah: Hey! Ro: Yep! Look at that! Hannah: Awesome!
Ro: Ewwwwwp! Hannah: Hey-o! Ro: That’s the test.
Ro: We can like, move to Portland and make our own fancy brews, and fit in just fine.
Hannah: We’re gonna be just fine in Portland!
Hannah: Ro, you were so kind to let me do yours, I would love it if you could cap mine.
Ro: Got it, I gotcha girl, ready for this? Hannah: Team work!
Hannah: Nailed it!
Ro: Oh it’s so cool! Hannah: It looks like a real soda!
Ro: Now we’re gonna cap the rest of these bottles and then add on the final
Ro: detail, our little custom labels! Hannah: Ooooh!
Ro: Hmmm-hmmm-hmmm-hmmm-hmmm-hmmm!
Hannah: Now that we’re on the final step, um, Ro, could you tell me how
Hannah: to put these labels on?
Ro: These are super easy, flip it on the back and it should have a line down
Ro: the middle. Hannah: Ohhh!
Ro: So you peel off the back end because it’s just like a sticker. Bewp!
Ro: And then on the jar, you’re gonna want to stick the barcode on first, and
Ro: then you’re just gonna wrap it all the way around and boom! Hannah: Voila!
Ro: Yeah, and then press down the sides.
Ro: You got it, you got it!
Hannah: This is the hardest part!
Hannah: Ahh!
Ro: Don’t worry you got it, you got it, you got it!
Hannah: There we go! Hey! Ro: Boom! There we go, see you just go like that!
Hannah: It’s decent. Ro: Yeah, it’s good!
Ro: And now you’re gonna do this to the rest of your sodas!
Hannah: Oh look at that! Second time for me was way better, oh!
Ro: That looks great! Hannah: Let’s compare and contrast. Mine got better. Ro: Mine got worse...
Both: Ta-da!
Ro: Here are the Nuka Cola’s that we made from Fallout, a big thank you to
Ro: you guys for suggesting these, these were so much fun to make.
Ro: And, a big thank you to Hannah for helping me make these today.
