Welcome to Common Man Cocktails. I'm your host Derrick Schommer and today we’re going to create the flying pod rubber. It's got other names. Let's just stick with that. This drink is submitted by, you could go like Bill also known as Taco Bill 35 or you do Bill. I like Bill I like first name basis. The user name thing drives me nuts because it's so many crazy names you can come up with. Drink is going to have some Amaretto, some vodka but it's going to do three quarter ounce of vodka, an ounce and a half of Amaretto. It's going to use some orange juice and some cranberry juice. We’re going to build it in here, shake vigorously and then pour into a high ball or glass, why not, right? I don’t need that anymore.
So let's do the add up and then so there’s a weird pattern to how you make the recipe whether it matters or not. I don’t know I'm going to follow the recipe, so we’re going to pour our vodka first. We’ll do our three quarters and this is our Saint Petersburg vodka, so a Russian vodka apparently Saint Petersburg. So we’re going to build in here. You could also build it in your glass if you have a glass and you have a shaker that could shake on top of the glass.
I don’t think so, so we’re not flying with that, flying pardon the name. So we’ll do an ounce and a half of Amaretto. I can hear all the Amaretto fans rejoicing right now because we have a lot of people like more Amaretto. I can do a whole week of Amaretto and they’ll just be like more. All right, another people would be like “What the heck is this Amaretto.TV and now what we’re going to do is add two ounces of OJ, that’s orange juice but OJ slang.
All right, so that’s half full, almost half full I got lines on mine so it's telling me so I can read so I don’t look like an idiot. All right, and then we’re going to add our cranberry juice. We’re going to do an ounce of cranberry juice. It seems like you never can get through one of this, so it never happens. So there you go, you got some color. You get a little bitterness in there and then we’re going to add our ice. Complications, there we go, one more ice, there we go.
So just now it's about quarters full that’s what they say you get in about three quarters full, add your ice a little more ice. Makes sure it's nice and cool. You can shake it vigorously for a few seconds as the recipe says, that’s not going to work. Put that vigorous kind of dizzy. Seal, smells like OJ from here and that really you just do this. You could strain into new ice. It doesn’t call for it in specific recipe because this is just boom, do this shake it vigorously that’s the way the recipe is and that’s what we’re doing.
Now people have asked why do you use two set of ice? Because now we go through a lot of ice, the trick is when you shake it, it breaks down the ice. It starts to melt a little because these alcohols aren’t cold and that the 10 seconds to 15 seconds of shaking brings out some of the water. Now you’ve watered the drink down a little bit which bad if you're making like a coke, right? You don’t want watery coke but for alcohol you got to bring some water until it brings out some of the alcohols. Bring some flavor and it tones it down just a little bit.
And then you put on new ice so when you serve it, the people have a nice refreshing drink that’s going to stay cold longer. You don’t want to give somebody, somebody so that they get partial pieces of ice unless the recipe calls for it like this does. It's got a nice frothy head. It's kind of dark almost like orange juice and brandy. Maybe, I could say so myself kind of looking at that. Maybe some soak out, this is really good. My first impression, I don’t know why, is a creamsicle, remember the creamsicle in school then. Less vanilla so if you have the creamsicle but you pulled out some of the vanilla maybe the way creamsicles and you know the orange off the sides and I leave the vanilla and then eat that last, I don’t know.
It makes it last longer so you have the dessert longer on. This is what I've always done, so it's kind of like the orange part of the creamsicle. Super tasty and now all the ice is broken down, nice and chilled up. So there you go, that’s use a better name that is your flying pod rubber. I'm your host Derrick Schommer.
