    Dave, your intro game is so next level. Enjoyed the daylights out of this one. Now maybe you can go back in time and stop Robert Butt from creating the Long Island Iced Tea. 😂

    Thanks so much, Tony!! Absolutely, this recipe is a keeper! That Bacardi 8 stuff is no joke, I actually love having it just on it's own as well, and if you can get your hands on Doctor Bird, it's an aroma experience all on its own. Cheers, buddy!

    This is heavy. Ha. The music just sets this up so powerfully. I heard you mention this on your live show, so I jumped to this video. Just so great. How many cocktail videos do I watch with a stupid smile on my face? Pretty much just this one...

    Haha I'm so glad you enjoy this one. This was a very technical-tricky one to pull off you can imagine, basically broke our brains trying to make this-- even the transforming magazine at the end was a rough one. But!! this cocktail deserves redemption, so we had to give it a big fun video too! Thanks for watching as always, Matt!

    Haha yes! I myself still need to try the final 80's version of the cocktail, as Oren mentioned in the comments here, the passion fruit version. I imagine that one is excellent. Also funny to me to think that Don had this 1937 version, then screwed it all up in the 70s, then UN-screwed it up in the 80s. haha. Thanks for watching!

    Thanks so much for the sub!! Glad you're enjoying so far. Indeed, this non-bad version of the beachcomber's gold is pretty good, and the bad one can still be fun to make.. in small batches.. just to experience the terribleness of it.
