Came here to make sure someone commented this!

I grew up watching bananas in pajamas! It definitely influenced the name, plus I couldn't think of a better name for a cocktail that uses the pajamas of the bananas as a key ingredient in the cocktail. Thanks for the video Leandro! Appreciate your support.

I don't even know how anyone can dislike this content.

Wow that environmental friendly vibe is great! And the banana peel idea is so cool!

Making the banana syrup right now. I actually have all the ingredients for this. Perfect for my BBQ tonight. Thanks!

Thank you, Marius, for bringing up the banana in the room. That is to say the amazing British children’s show Bananas In Pajamas (which was syndicated in the US on PBS).

I'm looking forward to getting back to work and trying out some new drinks.

Yes, it is definitely inspired by bananas in pajamas.

Great video, I want to make this and the syrup. Noticed a lot of sugar in the pan that didn't dissolve. This is essentially banana peels in rich syrup with cinnamon, wouldn't it be better to make rich syrup and let it cool to help dissolve better? Or would this be too sweet having much more sugar in syrup? Thanks for the great, informed content!

Thank you for the recipe! Are there any other ways to use the banana peel syrup?

Great little cocktail.

Nice, very very very cool, banana syrup🤔

Just made it. The banana peel probably could have sit longer for my syrup, only did 5 hours as you can see, but it is still good and has a hint of banana. It's like a really super nice daiquiri with all kinds of flavors going on. My wife loved it and hates banana drinks. She could still taste the banana though so was a hit. Gonna go make another while the pork butt rests...... Cheers! OH, Happy Memorial Day!

I made this one, according to directions except that I used 2 oz rum instead of 1.5. I didn't find the banana very striking, but I thought the drink as a whole is notable because of how the coconut rum comes off much better than in any other drink I've had with it.

That looks good

Just tried this, and the banana was lost to me, even though I know it’s in. I used Bacardi 3yr and Malibu, since that was what I had on hand. After upping to .75 banana syrup it tastes through and in my opinion balances the drink really well. Really nice drink. I’ll be enjoying these for a while.

My mind totally went straight to bananas in pajamas.

That's a very interesting cocktail, thanks sharing it! Maybe you said you didn't like Coconut Rum becasue you were thinking mainly at Malibu? I am not crazy about that either.

I'm 100% onboard with sustainable ingredient creation! But since I don't have any bananas lying around, and would in fact be buying bananas *just* to make this syrup (which ultimately seems wasteful 😄), I'm wondering how different the actual flavor of the syrup is from say banana liqueur. Obviously the alcohol element in the liqueur changes things a bit, but I'm more concerned about the comparability of the flavor. You only say "coconut and banana flavor" for the drink, so it makes it sound like the syrup just tastes like banana... which is great from a sustainability perspective if you don't have to need to use whole banana to get that flavor, but otherwise seems unnecessary to make.

Are there other drinks that use banana syrup?

😂 I had no idea what Bananas in Pajamas were. Maybe a little old for that show....

My only issue with this drink for a 'sustainability' perspective is the amount of sugar and water that is produced for one drink, and that there is not much syrup being used for the amount the recipe recommends to make. That's quite a bit of energy consumed for an ingredient that won't be used often, or is not commonly used. It could be a nice idea to do another episode using the banana peel syrup so that the syrup doesn't go to waste, as syrups only generally last up to 1 month if stored correctly. OR just half the recipe to make less next time, and it won't all go to waste. Just my two cents. Sounds like a delish drink though! It would work well in a bar that uses the syrup often, but maybe not for the home bartender.

I'd think that'd be a trademark issue, not copyright. Bananas in Pyjamas obviously has the trademark on using that name for a kids TV show, at least in Australia, but I doubt it's sufficiently creative to warrant copyright on those three words in that order.
