I'm making Michael Scott's famous One of Everything as served at Moroccan Christmas and nothing makes sense anymore. Who even am I? What is this about? The office premiered in America in 2005, as an adaptation from the British series of the same name (created by and starring Ricky Gervais) and it was a huge hit. An insane it. It's got to be one of the most popular TV shows of all time. It's currently accounting for something like 8% of ALL activity on Netflix, that is insane.
One of Everything
1 oz. or 30 ml. Scotch
1 oz. or 30 ml. Gin
1 oz. or 30 ml. Rum
1 oz. or 30 ml. Absinthe
1 oz. or 30 ml. Triple Sec
1 oz. or 30 ml. Vermouth
Two packs of Splenda

Sugar alcohols (sorbitol, xylitol, manitol...) are sugars, just as glucose, except we don't have any use for them, or better saying we did not evolve to absorb them, so we don't. However, as any sugar, it has a lot of alcohol/hydroxyl groups (-OH) in their structure which LOVES WATER. So much that they compete with the gut cells for water, making us absorb less of it, and letting more out, making your intestines feel like hell.

The trick to cracking ice this way is for them to be straight from the freezer. If you let the ice stay out for a few minutes it will start to temper and then harden. You know when you grab some ice from the freezer and directly to a glass of soda and you just hear the ice cracking straight away as it hits the soda? That’s because it hasn’t tempered. In this case, when you want the ice to crack, taking them straight from the freezer is what you want! 👍

Bon Spacey if that happens, he should give “the pound of flesh” a try. It’s 30 mL of DayQuil and 120 mL Pepto Bismol mixed well with orange juice to your desired viscosity and drunk as needed from a hip flask. I’m not going to lie, the taste is not great and the color (the source of the name) is disturbing, but it makes damn near any hangover bearable.

You managed to cram together “from the top of my head”, “back of the envelope”, and “off the cuff”. Well done! So... this one’s a mind eraser.
I figured this drink would at least be ok. It follows the basic idea behind an old fashioned: alcohol, something sweet, and something bitter. These elements are found together in most drinks and is what makes them smooth and not overly alcoholic.

I was really curious about how much of each was going into this drink as Michael only said "one part", when Greg went for an oz I said "oh no" out loud, by myself.
We call it earthquake in these parts - as if such a one struck a bar and mixed everything together. So depends what's on bar, but in my case it wasn't nearly as nice as you describe... Had a beer afterwards to wash it down. don't recall much since.

Great to see you spreading the Detectorists love again. Smashing show. Also one of very few shows that deals with middle age men in a sincere way that doesn’t mock them. Under appreciated by many.
Sounds like a version of combat juice, a weird combo of booze and seemingly random bar odds (made by the pitcher usually) that ends up tasting like a koolaid but will absolutely flatten you. Good times.

One time in college, my friends and I experimented by combining a bunch of random alcohol (the only one I remember is Smirnoff Red, White, and Berry) but somehow they all blended together to taste like vanilla.

Absinthe watered down while being strengthen sounds good
Hey Greg, I absolutely love your videos and they are so adicting to watch. I honestly want to become a bartender just so I can serve up these drinks lol. I was wondering if I might give you a recomendation for a drink to make. In Fallout New Vegas, in the DLC Dead Money, you can get the recipe for something called a Sierra Madre Martini. The recipe calls for "cloud residue", Junk Food, and a tin can but if you drop it out of your inventory it has the appearance of a whiskey bottle that darker and labeled "Sierra Madre Martini". I know you cant quit follow the exact recipe but I was curious if you could find out a cool recipe of your own
The words leaned out of the way when Greg swayed over that way! Perfect!

I've literally never met another person who loves Detectorists as much as I do, and you Sir, have just made my day!
It's so strange how you can mix certain spirits together and combined they not only taste well but cancel out the burn each one gives off. For example something like an AMF sounds like it would be totally unbearable but it works really well
Spanish ciders also get a high pour to add bubbles

Amazingly comedic episode. I love the Office. This drink looks dangerous...dangerously strong 🥴
Reminds me of my favorite to get if I want to get a bit out of hand: The Blue/Adios MF'er. Just change out the Absinthe for 60ml of Tequila, the Triple Sec for Blue Curaçao and skip the Splenda.
