Welcome to Common Man Cocktails I am your host Derrick Schommer. Today, we are creating our first punch in the base. This is the 10 Cane Spiced Apple Punch. 10 canes are sponsoring this episode. If you haven’t figured it out yet in one of the reasons I was willing to do this besides I think we just be super cool. Even if you can’t do this it’s just kind of fun to see is that we’ve had a lot of people saying even in our tasting. Where’s 10 canes, where’s 10 cane? Where’s 10 canes? So we brought out 10 cane at the end and people liked it. If there’s I could—a devotion to this specific brand. People who like this brand stick with this brandy like the sweetness. They like everything about it so this is something that they may thing about. When they want to make them distress be with 10 canes and this is a recipe that they developed. It’s on a bottle. He should be able to see that from here right?—yeah you think we could see it probably because we could see that over to see that if not here. I want you to store, pick this up. They had this on here but so many had took it off and put on in the balls behind it because it was like one had it. You don’t—yeah you’re right because it really had take off. I forgot how would I show it down but the story was accurate.
The story was 75% accurate so they had – liked five bottles. One had the casing and the other one didn’t so I ju8st took one then. What we are going to do here is we’re going to do two jugs worth because we’re going to fill my little—we are going to fill this high. If you have a big punch bowl, if you are more prepared for this scenario on the show, then it mi9ght be different for you. What we are going to do is we’re going to make two of equal size. We are going to pour half out going here and we’re going to do 12 ounces and believe. I had major—on here so we are going to do 12.5 ounces of the actual alcohol. Let’s just do that now and you got to use the whole bottle.
This is deceived in these 25 ounces for those of you in the US that are use to ounces in milliliters confusion. 25 are 750 milliliters, 25 ounces. So I'm going to make it so I could see. It’s deceived like this more on here than they really is. It’s the magic bottle really like a genie. The five parts is if you were to just drink this, it will probably kill you. No probably it will kill you but it would definitely rough time. It doesn’t take a y so that’s our alcohol cotton right there. Then I thought that we’re going to use this one which is the apple juice a your—in this part. So what you’ll do is you take this pocket right here. It’s in a little plastic seal. You take the seal up but you leave this the crazy spices inside this inner pocket and I was – there was spices having cinnamon orange peel cloves, all spice and natural flavors. It is best if used by 8 18 and 11th so if you're watching the show now and you’ll see it next year, and as here now. This is still again. So I shop probably on that. What we do is we take. This is the cold version of this two. There’s the cold and there’s warm and we are doing the cold because it works better.
Now, what I have in here is the spice bucket. There it is. It is like a tea bag when you actually take it out ands what you want to do is put this into your orange juice your apple juice. Deep to one ounces of apple juice, you put this ion here, you leave in the refrigerator for an hour or whatever then you check it out and then you are going to squeeze all the goodies out there like that and then we are just going to flap it of on the side and you're done with spice pocket. It sounds like pumpkin and tasty bits. We are going to take that. That is kind of our base. We did that ahead of time so remember that part. You are going to do than an hour before you watch the show.
What we are going to do except for you watching the show pause it. Now go and finish the recipe. What we are going to do is pour the device right on top of our alcohol.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom! Done, so now, what we have is we just put 25 ½ ounces in there so we got a total of 38 ounces in there and w should. If all are mat ahead of time worked correctly, you do this. They should come out to be about even. Look at that. The magic of whatever it is were doing and then soothing recipes says to do next—squeeze packed here, put that in here, stir then okay. I can stir that up and now we have got our alcohol in there. I have a bar spoon but that’s – it seems like an easy and a little bigger on that.
But, what we have now is pear punch. We are technically done. So you can easily so this ahead of time. What I am thinking to doing is bringing these two thanksgivings next week or whenever that is. Thanksgiving and never pay attention to dates anymore. 2 weeks, but in this era is one week. So I was right on thinking ahead.
If you are doing the cold one, you are going to want to shake this because – you don’t necessarily have to. It depends if you want to put it into a cocktail or a Martini glass. Where can I do that? We are going to put it over ice so we don’t necessarily have to shake this because it is very cold. So we even have one last step but if your going to use cocktail glass, shake it with iced tea to get a look chilled up so you want have this ice in your glass. We are making two. We are going to do a his on her. So Jennifer I shall drink after the show and we just made a lot of alcohol and there’s two people in the house. And they don’t during that much believe it or not.
One of these I guess we cap off we say it for layer. I don’t think we are going to need that done so we get some spares. These were to show you drink it out.
So I think we are following the instructions right. So if you get this, you can find the warm recipe. The really big difference id you’re going to obviously boil it, we are going to still plug this little pocket over here and you're going to serve it with – in a mug and garnish with the cinnamon stick. With this one, you can also garnish with the cinnamon stick and then you trade old stories for new. What we are going to do is try and garnish with the cinnamon stick but the real trick is they're not really going to call this glass. It works good if you put it into a cocktail glass—glass not so much but there you go. It really took how it looks good.
It smells like – the smells in the holidays. You got your – it’s almost like a – it smells initially like a pumpkin pie. We are going also to whether it is or not—it smells very similar to what my desk smell like for about a weekend and a half. It is what it tastes like.
You don’t taste a lot of alcohol. Your sweeteners, you got your holiday tasty bits like your – you had just use over of spiciness little – kindly like the whole drink really revolves around the apple stretcher so you are getting. This is like apple juice for the holiday not like—I don’t know – dark and thick as the cider is. It’s more like honey apple juice with a little extra sweetness not really – no burn. Let me try that one more time.
Definitely, you make it different. Don’t look at it. It looks like apple juice, it’s definitely got more definition in just a start of apple juice so you get remember that all and she’ll getting to go a little surprise with the drink. Definitely tasty good drink for the holidays if you are having about your people over and make a couple of this or maybe just one big one, put it on a bowl and people are just getting to be like. You know what you’re doing. This is liked all perfect for the season so there you go. I don’t know if I really had imagined even though they are the sponsor. What thinking is all about this as definitely a more sweet. You can watch pour tasting episodes for all the different rums that we went through but it’s darker, it’s more sugar of sweetness then it like the rum, and the lighter like the other rums tend to be a little lighter crisp but light. This is little more sweet so if you are into a sweeter rum, definitely check out 10 cane.
I am your host Derrick Schommer and I have this freefalling and doing the whole punch or episode. So there you go. We are teaching you how to drink.
