I HATE ads in all forms, but especially youtube's midroll ads and sponsored ads in yt videos. Your Yellowstone ads, however, tell a story, they fit the theme of your show, they produce an extra drink, and they are the best thing an ad can be: indistinguishable from what you wanted to watch in the first place. Well done.

I think one of my fav things about your Yellowstone ads is that it doesn't feel like an ad; it feels like bonus content.

Out of everything I've learned from watching HTD videos, it's that EVERYTHING can be improved with half an ounce of simple syrup.

The "secret" to all our Long Islands and many other drinks is the Lemon Sour (also Sweet & Sour) mix you can buy in almost any liquor store . Since getting fresh lemon juice takes forever and is costly. Its what gives it the sourness that masks the liquor. Also no one drinks the Truly Berry Limeade, literally everyone hates it and I dont think I've made more than one since it was introduced.

To really get that blue razz flavor, you could potentially use UV Blue instead of the brandy. It’s 30% ABV so just subbing the normal vodka with it is probably not a good idea. Tbh I’m not a fan of UV but it nails the artificial flavor if that’s what you’re aiming for

Greg I think you and I had the same experience of the Grand Canyon, grabbing the most amazing breakfast at the old hotel after watching the sunrise on a cold crisp morning just can’t be topped.

Having worked at a carpet place that dealt with the events industry. The weirdest conversations about different shades of colors would ping most people's gaydar if heard without the context. Trying to find colors without a Pantone color code with customers leads to some interesting conversations to say the least. Two straight guys talking about shades of purple and having 20 or more different variations that are all almost the same is pretty weird.

I'll always argue that Dew is a good soda for mixed drinks that use soda, I've been doing this for years before the first official dew cocktails started popping up. It's not exactly Sprite, but could stand in well in an AMF, especially when you're going for a flavored AMF. Dew's marketing is also insane, we've had multiple restaurants with their own limited drink, multiple fast food chains with their own limited drinks, and multiple convenience store chains with their own limited drinks, and some products seem to be somewhat regional and somewhat store-limited, then on top of that we have some restaurants doing cocktails, and somehow PepsiCo is making it work.

How many episodes worth of drinks did you have before filming?

I'm almost 100% sure mountain dew legend is just them bringing pitch black back because it tastes exactly how I remember that tasting.

I was gifted a bottle of Yellowstone last holiday season, and previously I only liked Irish whisky and couldn't find an American one that I enjoyed, but there's something about the Yellowstone that has really grown on me.

I used to work at Buffalo Wild Wings for 4 years and my advice with that place is easy and simple to remember: Just don't. They had a margarita that was made with Mountain Dew and garnished with a mini slim jim. All it needed was a dorito rim coating.

I just visited Yellowstone, Arches, and Monument Valley, so I can't wait to see what drinks you make for them, including Everglades which I live near and other national parks I've been to!

Greg, thank you so much for giving me a fun AMF variation to make at home. AMFs are probably my favorite "secret booze" cocktail.

Well strawberry syrup in an otherwise colorless cocktail will turn it a weak/pale red, so I can't see it altering the color of Greg's muddy brown drink very much. However a cherry syrup made with very ripe black cherries oughta do it, I would think. If you're worried about too sweet, then splurge on a bottle of pure cherry juice, or you could even go with sour cherry juice, which you could sweeten for balance.

I work there. I have for a year. The legendary Long Island sucks so much

I make a cherry limeade drink at my house. Lime juice, tart cherry juice, simple syrup, I use gin for alcohol and top with seltzer. It’s a variation on the cherry lime Ricky. Another version is drop the simple and seltzer and top with Red Bull instead.

Thanks for saving me the trip of going to B-Dubs for that Mountain Dew drink. It sounded good in theory but I'm not one for overly sweet drinks. I have had a few good drinks from there one was a "Moonshine" one and my favorite was the Sour Irishman.

It's funny that he mentioned the "citrus-less citric acid" idea. I've seen this in a few places actually, usually in the form of a mix of citric and malic acid. Drink in Boston, Jeff Morganthaler's old bar, keeps this on hand as an additive to throw into drinks, and I've seen them use it in really, really interesting ways.

Your channel inspired me to try an old fashioned for the first time last night. I actually happened to be at a Buffalo wild wings.
