A couple things worth mentioning: Although the recipe doesn't say so, normally you'd give the ingredients a dry shake before adding the ice. This will make the egg whites froth more (this was the recipe book's fault, not yours). Also, the term "powdered sugar" had a different meaning in 1934. It was simply sugar ground very, very fine. No corn starch. You can do this yourself with your coffee grinder, but everything needs to be thoroughly cleaned before and after. The easiest thing to use for this are those coffee/nut/spice grinders. I've watched many a KZread cocktail maven make this mistake. The fact you needed to look up "Sanborn" made me feel very old indeed. Love your videos.

For the last drink with the negligible ginger taste, 1950s America was really leery of anything too "spicy". I think our tastes have evolved to the point that you could easily double or triple the amount of ginger the recipe calls for.

It also occurred to me that you might substitute "superfine" sugar for powdered. I don't remember it being available (except maybe to bars?) until the '70s or '80s. It's almost as fine as powdered sugar, but has no cornstarch and dissolves readily, even in cold liquid.

I would honestly love to see a collab between yourself and the legend that is “How To Drink” maybe making coffee based cocktails and finding the best blends of coffee to suit each one

I need to see Morgan showing Greg the handheld blast chiller

I love how Morgan stares at the carafe while waiting for the brew to finish. I feel like I'm the only one who does that every time I brew a cup.

Hello, I just wanted to provide a nice and easy recipe for that opened sugar powder: THE LINZER. 100 g sugar powder, 200g butter, 300 g fine flour, one egg yolk. Also you may add vanilla/vanilla sugar, and/or lemon peel. Mix ingredients until homogenised, let it rest in the refrigerator for an hour. Flatten it with rolling pin (about 3-5mm thick, but mine is usually thicker, can't really go wrong with it), choose a shape cutter (classic one is flower shape) make one half of it with a hole in the middle (with mini circle cutter, I usually use the cap of something). Bake it for 10min at 180 degree celsius, no need for browning at all. Wait until it's a managable temperature, spread preferred jam (classic is apricot) on the bottom, the top will be the ones with the hole. Put is together, wait for at least half a day until trying, because the jam will make it sooooo soft and crumbly. :)

Morgan, I simply must tell you about the wonder that is lactase powder. I found it after getting dairy sensitive myself last year, and I'm keeping it in my pantry for cooking purposes. It's a lovely backup to lactose pills. (Also there's cheaper options and larger doses than lactaid available online!)

I've always thought that iced coffee was a relatively recent invention. I started drinking it back in the '90s and I don't remember hearing much about it before then. I've really surprised that it was popular all the way back in the '30s. Incidentally, what you were saying about the Pan-American Coffee Bureaus efforts to popularize coffee in North America reminded me of the Coffee Achiever ads that National Coffee Association ran back in the '80s. If you've never seen them, I recommend looking them up here on KZread. They're pretty entertaining.

Very true actually given that a lot of people didn’t even have freezers at that point in time

In this time period "powdered sugar" might have also referred to what we call "granulated sugar" today - as opposed to sugar in lumps (for adding to coffee or tea at the table) or one big cone-shaped loaf (to be broken up as needed in the kitchen).

This is so interesting! It is fascinating to see the difference between the eras on how they enjoy and prepare their coffee vs today. Love your content ☕️ ❤

If you wanna see more shaker techniques in action, I highly recommend the channel How To Drink! I've personally learned a lot from watching Greg in action!

I was glad to see you at least weren't using coffee brewed according to their base instructions. I grew up in the '50s and '60s. I remember my parents' coffee. This was before even the "Mr Coffee" style brewers. Percolator coffee, with (probably) Hills Bros or MJB. Probably way underdosed. I tried it a few times and wondered why anyone would bother to drink it. The aroma was always very enticing, but the vile, thin, bitter brew was awful. Of course, with a percolator, it always was. You were boiling some water, forcing it up the tube and into the basket of coffee, where it then dripped down. First shot, OK. Basic drip coffee. But THEN, every subsequent cycle, you were boiling dilute coffee and forcing it up the tube. And then, progressively stronger coffee, boiled, and forced up the tube. The fly in this ointment, of course, was that, no matter how you cut it, ALL of your coffee had been boiled in the making. No wonder it was vile. For me, the "aha!" moment was when a (much worldlier) high school girlfriend took me to a (real) coffee house in Berkeley. I got a caffé con panna (whipped cream), into which I put a couple demitasse spoonsful of sugar. Omigod! The world had changed for the better and I understood what all the hubbub about coffee was! Several mokka pots and three or four espresso machines later, I now treat myself to a cup of espresso from my La Pavoni Europiccola at least once a day, if I don't walk to my nearest coffee house. Thanks for the trip down Memory Lane, to remind me why I never want to go back!

@Anne K my fav pour over technique is the Hario V60 and when i need to do a lot of coffee and fast, french press is a lifesaver.

A lot of folks have pointed out modern powdered sugar has corn starch that causes issues with dissolution and texture & suggested using or making superfine sugar at home. I would recommend just putting the appropriate amount of regular sugar into the coffee while hot. Superfine is hard to come by most places, and making it in your blender at home is not typically recommended (there are a lot of reasons why, the most dramatic of which is how incredibly flammable sugar dust is). Powdered sugar will dissolve at low temperatures provided it is mechanically agitated to break up any clumps that form (the ice does a good job of this). "Whole grain sugar" will only partially dissolve at icy temperatures, no matter how hard you shake or stir. Starch-free powdered sugar won't do anything for texture (that's all down to the emulsifying action of the egg white), so it'd be just fine and much simpler to dissolve sugar into the warm coffee and then proceed as directed. It isn't likely to be more or less sweet, either, provided you use pure white sugar and substitute an equal *weight* of sugar. Dissolved superfine sugar isn't any different than dissolved caster sugar, excepting: less refined sugars taste less sweet & a volumetric measurement of powdered sugar has more sugar and less air in it vs whole grain sugar (depending on how hard-packed or fluffy your scooping style is, anyway).

Also team ‘immediately fill your ice tray after using it’, some of my friends used to live in a share house together and the only times the ice tray would consistently get refilled would be when I was around to visit. Also as someone who shakes Boston shakers quite often, you don’t look like you’re doing anything outright *wrong*, it just looks a little awkward because you haven’t practised or established a rhythm with it enough yet! If you wanna get into the flow of it, you can try practising with just ice and water in it. Thankfully you’re learning it in a much lower-pressure environment than I did (my boss came over and tipped a round of espresso martinis down the sink and got me to remake them until the foam was just right, but it pretty permanently established my rhythm for shaking)

It is NOT possible to make decent coffee in a percolator. That's a function of the basic way it make coffee. It works by boiling the liquid and forcing it up the tube to the top of the basket. The first shot is boiled water. Everything else is boiled coffee, of increasing strength. so ALL your coffee has been boiled. I tried to make acceptable coffee for after church in the early '70s in a 30 cup percolator. I scrubbed the parts thoroughly, (wasted) better quality coffee than was available on the mass market, and STILL ended up with a nasty brew. Better than what we HAD been drinking, but still vile.

The Coffee Frappe music sounds like a lounge version of Happy Birthday to me

I might be wrong but I think that ice cream was firmer in the 50s, so maybe the shake would actually have a thicker consistency
