Welcome back to Drinks With Diablo
This is your host Jöhnny Dîablø,
and today we're making a drink called the Devil's Playground.
Now what you're going to need for this one is:
Gin, dry vermouth,
Cherry Heering,
some maraschino cherries,
and
some hot red peppers.
I've already rimmed my glass with red-colored sugar.
All I did was mix some sugar and grenadine.
I took the glass,
dipped it in a plate full of water,
and then just jammed it in that sugar,
and it rimmed up really nice.
So we're going to shake this drink up with some ice.
We're going to throw it in the glass,
and then we're going to do something fancy.
So let's start with two ounces of gin.
Add an ounce of Cherry Heering.
Mmm.
This is a fancy type of cherry liqueur.
Also add ½ an ounce of dry vermouth.
And we're going to shake that up.
Alright, knock that back into your glass.
We've got a vaguely red
tone to this drink there.
It smells interesting.
Okay, we throw a maraschino cherry in the bottom.
And then I have take two red peppers
and slit them down the middle.
And these are going to be
the Devil horns!!!
Yeah, boyeee.
There you go, the Devil's Playground.
Let's see how it tastes.
Whooo.
Mmmm.
Interesting.
The gin is coming through strong, of course.
The vermouth is also strong.
The cherry adds just a little tiny bit.
This — actually the sugar on the edge
helps a lot.
The sugar actually gives it a little flavor.
And even these peppers, dipping into the drink just a bit
add a wee hint of spice to it.
Very interesting.
Mmmm.
Yeah, the cherry's there, but it's —
This doesn't taste like CHERRY.
It tastes more like gin and vermouth.
It tastes more like a martini.
But what these peppers do to you,
I've figured it out.
It's the SMELL.
It's the smell of the peppers that affect the taste of the drink.
Very interesting drink.
I kind of like it.
If you like a martini,
you will love the Devil's Playground..
There you go.
