This episode brings the chocolate in the form of Godiva’s Chocolate liqueur along with some Kapali Coffee Liqueur, Ryan’s Irish Cream and Chambord. Chocolate lovers rejoice as this is a tasty little treat for those with a sweet tooth. This video was supposed to launch tomorrow but somehow I got them out-of-order so the reference to “ipad” and “yesterday” was meant to be said on Thursday, oh well!
This is a layered cocktail that’s meant to show off the potency of absinthe. The Flaming Imbecile is served on fire, easily done with the absinthe layered on the top. The shooter will definitely underscore the black liquorice/anisette flavor with some sourness followed by sweetness.
A bourbon and peach schnapps drink with nice light carbonation of lemon/lime soda (sprite). The largest component is definitely the orange juice, which brings a juicy citrus backbone with a nice light oak finish. This cocktail definitely pairs well with the Jim Beam White Label brand.
This one might be more for entertainment value or for those curious about Campari. We built this with the intention of experimenting, for the viewers, but had a feeling it wasn’t going to be our favorite. To work through the process, we also created a dry and normal variant to find the differences.

We’re rolling with a simple shooter today, the Drunk Monkey #2, it has only two ingredients: banana schnapps (99 bananas) and sambuca. It’s got a taste all its own, banana wrapped in black liquorish with a bit of burning fire.
A rainbow of flavors all rolling across your tongue, we’ve mixing a Rain Forest Cocktail, which includes 99 Bananas, Raspberry Vodka, Coconut Rum, pineapple juice and some cranberry juice. A pretty presentation, almost a peach-like color with a good strong banana flavor while working many other flavors at the same time.
Sailor Jerry’s Spiced Rum is in the house, we’re mixing it with some amaretto and a slight bit of peach schnapps. The cocktail is smooth with a bit of red licorice, black licorice and slightly sweet flavors with a muted peach finish.
