GMM 1629: Celebrity Alcohol vs Cheap Alcohol Taste Test

Can we tell an A-list cocktail from a Payless cocktail? – [Women] Let’s talk about that. (groovy electronic music) – Good Mythical Morning. – Please welcome our new friends, WWE superstars and the stars of “Total Bellas” on E!, it’s Nikki and Brie Bella! – Hello! – Hey guys. Thank you. – Hey, thanks for being here. – We’re very excited. – Now, we know that you got your own line of wine so I assume that means you’re also into cocktails. – Oh yes. – Oh yeah. – What’s your favorite cocktails? – So for me, my hot girl summer choice was spicy skinny margaritas with a very spicy rim. Mm, got me in a lot of trouble. – Okay, all right. – I guess we’re twins because that’s my favorite one too. – Are we? – Okay, all right. You have the same taste buds. It’s in your DNA. You can’t help it. – Yeah, we can’t. – But you’re not the only celebrities to have a line of fancy drinks which brings us to a game that will likely result in us having to order you a Lyft home today. – Oh. – Oh. – It’s time for Pop Out Your Pinkies and Pour Out a Stiffy. Let’s Guess Celeb Cocktails with our Pals Brie and Nikki. – Welcome to the Mythical bar AKA the no one likes to drink alone zone. – Yes, now if you go to the website of just about any alcohol sold by a celebrity, you were gonna see these fancy recipes using their liquor but you can also make those fancy cocktails with any ol’ five and dime hooch. The question is what kind of advanced palate does it take to tell the difference between the two? – Okay yeah, so we’re each gonna be presented with two cocktails, both will be made with the same celebrity recipe. One will be made with a celebrity’s liquor, the other one with just the low ball basic, low-end alcohol. – Low ball. – Yum. – Low ball it. – Okay and then we have to guess which one is the celebrity cocktail and points will escalate each round and the person with the most points at the end will win A-list twin fist bumps from the Bella twins. – You feeling good about this? – Really good. – I’m feeling very confident– – Good at drinking. – Who’s the most confident? – Me, I have a snooty palate and it’s gonna finally actually come in hand. – Let’s put it to the test. – Snooty palate. – I love it. (swanky music) – [Stevie] First up is a cocktail called the Amelia Earhart. One of them is made with Ryan Reynolds’ Aviation Gin and the other is made with regular old Seagram’s Gin. – Seagram. – [Stevie] The cocktail is made with gin, lemon juice, rhubarb jam syrup and sparkling wine. – Okay. – Ooh. – That’s refreshing. – Yeah. – It makes me talk like Skeletor. – Wow. – Did you drink it? – I did. It’s, actually, that one’s not bad. – It’s got a little bite to it. – Can I try the B? – You don’t like it? – Yeah let’s go for the B. – Let’s do it. – [Rhett] Oh. – Oh! That one makes me sound like Skeletor. – [Brie] Dang. – If he said, if he said– – There is definitely a big difference between these two. – I feel like there’s a huge difference. – There’s a huge difference. – Yeah, you wanna tell me which one you think it is before– (Rhett laughs) – I don’t know. – I mean, when I go to the bar and they’re like, “Do you want the top-shelf or the middle shelf?” I’m just like uh. – Yeah yeah– – I don’t answer. – I always go for the top. – I always do the top ’cause I feel like, like less of a hangover. – And it’s always like gluten-free or they use sugar-free or something. – Yeah, like sugar-free. – And it’s more expensive. – Yeah, that’s the thing is I feel like there’s tons of sugar in this one. – [Rhett] Mm-hmm, yeah. – All right you guys– – Are we allowed to say? – I’m ready to vote. – I’m ready to vote. – We’re gonna hold our hands over the one you think is the celebrity– – Ryan Reynolds. – Rile, Ryan Reynolds cocktail. – [Stevie] Here we go, in three, two, one. – Woop. – I mean how could– – Oh, what? I thought this one was a lot better. – [Stevie] We’re split by Link alone. The drink made with Ryan Reynolds’ Aviation Gin is in glass B. (all yelling) – Told ya! – No way! – You thought that one was better? – It was more alcoholic. I didn’t like it. – I thought it tasted horrible. – I thought it was way sweeter and– – I thought it was horrible. – Ryan. (swanky music) – [Stevie] Next up is a little cocktail called the butterfly effect. One features George Clooney’s tequila Casamigos and the other has Sauza Tequila. The cocktail has tequila, fresh lemon juice, butterfly pea-infused syrup, orgeat syrup, and lavender bitters. – Did you say butterfly pea? – I did, it’s P-E-A. – Ah! – Oh. – This is the one where Clooney’s riding on the motorcycle everywhere? – Clooney, seen him on that motorcycle. He’s everywhere. – A, it tastes like a cough drop. – They don’t serve that in Mexico. – [Rhett] How did it get blue? – B also tastes like a cough drop. Is this just NyQuil? I mean– – Oh yuck. – [Link] I think it would have put you out. – Oh sick. – Like a light. – That’s so gross. – Like a light. Like a light. – The funny thing is I feel like, well I don’t wanna say anything, it’s just there’s a very distinct difference but last time that did me no favors. – I know. – I know, it’s almost like going for the stronger gross one’s the celebrity one. – The taste, I feel like I know it but then the smell. ‘Cause tequila, you can tell when it’s cheap. – You can? – She’s giving us a hint. This one smells like body odor. – Oh dang. – Okay I think I know. – Maybe it’s this green thing. – I think I know which is which. – Me too. I think I know too. – Okay, let’s vote. – Okay. – Really, I love Casamigos. – Me too. – [Stevie] Here we go. Three, two, one. – Bam, okay, ooh we all agree. – Oh we all went with the black. – You know what, I’m gonna change my answer. No I’m not. I gotta play defense, I’m in the lead. – Yeah you are. – You can pull away now. – [Stevie] Are these your final guesses? – You can pull away, Link. – I ain’t fallin’ for you. I’m trusting my instincts. – [Stevie] The cocktail made with George Clooney’s Casamigas Tequila is in glass A. – Oh dang it! – Should have done it man! – No way! – You should have done it! – I couldn’t pull away! – That’s Casa? – See, I thought this one did taste a little better but the smell is terrible. – Okay I thought this tastes better too but– – Smell this. – That was like, last round messed me up. – It smells like– – How did it get blue? No one answered that. (swanky music) – [Stevie] This is the Skinnygirl Miss Goody Two-Blues cocktail. – Oh. – One drink is made with Real Housewife Bethany Frankel’s Skinnygirl Bare Naked Vodka and the other has plain old Svedka Vodka. – Oh no. – [Stevie] The drink’s made with vodka, muddled blueberries– – I just spit in my drink– – Blackberries and club soda. – And I have to try that again. – You guys just spit right back into your drinks. – [Link] What’s the oil? – That’s Popov. – Yeah. – That has to be Popov. – That’s gonna kill me. – It brought me back to college. – What is happening in this? Nicole, you know what, and I know she just described it but what are all the little pieces of fruit? – [Nikki] Those are blackberries and blueberries. – Blackberries and blueberries. – So it’s all muddled up. – You guys are having a visceral reaction to both of them. – Yeah, B tastes like rubbing alcohol. – Gah! This is an awful drink. – These are– (crew laughs) – I mean they are both awful. – Just horrible. – I’m not a Skinnygirl. (chuckles) – Is it cranberry juice ’cause I don’t even taste juice. – All I taste is vodka. Terrible vodka in both of these drinks. – This is housewife cleaning products. – Yeah seriously. – This is on a website? – I think A– – She kills it. Skinnygirl like kills it too. – I think A is a lot nastier than B. – Really, I think B is way nastier. – Really? – But they’re both pretty nasty. – They’re both really gross. – [Link] This is oily and like there’s a lugey floating in there or something. – It might be mine. – I’m ready to, I’m ready. – Okay here we go. – I’m ready. – [Stevie] Three, two, one. – Oh, Link, we’re always all three in agreement and you’re– – I ain’t changing my answer this time. – Wow. – I should have changed it last time. – [Stevie] The drink made with Bethenny Frankel’s Skinnygirl Bare Naked Vodka is in glass A. – Yes! – Okay, all right, all right. We got one, we got one. – Yeah, tied it up. – All right. – In yo face. – Face. (swanky music) – Okay Link, because you know, points escalate each round, that strong start really didn’t amount to much. – No. – Here and it’s now three, three, three to one. – Shout-out to the late bloomers. – All right, Stevie what do we have here? – [Stevie] In front of you you have a cocktail called a taste of honey. One is made with Drake’s Virginia Black American Whiskey and the other has Evan Williams brand whiskey fresh out of the plastic container. – Oh. – This drink has whiskey, fresh lemon juice, honey syrup, and a fresh grapefruit peel. – Now this is the first one that I like. – It is the best one. – It’s strong. – I like it as a drink. Did you say Drake, like the duck? – [Stevie] I did say Drake, not like the duck. – Okay. – The honey helps. – This one’s darker. – Yeah it is, there’s definitely a color difference. – Whiskey always makes me wanna fight. (Rhett chuckles) – Okay well don’t– – Who wants to fight? – Don’t drink too much. (chuckles) – This one’s difficult because I feel like there’s a lot of really expensive whiskeys that are super strong and then some that are very smooth. – Well I will tell you, B’s really smooth. I can actually– – But it doesn’t mean, but it doesn’t mean it’s expensive. – But Drake is so smooth. – Yeah he is. – [Rhett] Think about that. – But is he high end? – [Stevie] Wait what? – Eh! – I don’t know, I’m torn. – But he gets really agitated on the sidelines of the Rafter’s game though. He kinda loses his cool there, you know what I’m saying? – He really does. – He’s not too smooth at that point. – No. – So maybe he gets spicy sometimes. – He fights with players, it’s crazy. – Well– – Shoot. – So far this is actually one of my favorite drink, the easiest one to drink is B. – Yeah. – B whiskey. – [Stevie] I’ll give you guys a little hint. How ’bout I give you a little hint on this one. – Yeah. – So you’re talking about high end whiskey. So Drake’s whiskey goes from between 20 and $30 a bottle and Evan Williams is about 10, so neither one is high end. – Yeah that’s not crazy high. – [Stevie] Not crazy high. – Drake’s for the common man. – I like both of ’em. – I’m beginning to realize how much I’m drinking. (chuckles) – Yeah. – It’s like I just, it just was like whoa, kay. – Yeah. – Just hit you? – We’re gonna take you up on that Lyft offer. – (chuckles) All right. – Good morning! – [Stevie] All right you guys ready? – Let’s vote. – I have a guess. – [Stevie] Here we go. – Okay. – Three, two, one. (Link mimics whip lashing) – Oh, we’re split. – Okay we got some differentiation over here. – The bar is split. – [Stevie] The cocktail made with Drake’s Virginia Black American Whiskey is in glass B. – Yes! – [Link] Oh no! – All right! – Dang it! – I knew it. – See, B did seem more expensive but– – It tasted better, I’m going what tastes better at this point. – Me too. – Look, when she beats me, she starts to get like judgey. (Rhett laughs) – Yeah. – Of course. (swanky music) – Okay Nikki with three points on the board you can still win ’cause this round’s worth five if your opponents here don’t get this right. I’m saying your opponents because I’m out of the game. I’m just, I got one point of ’em here. – What you’re saying is it’s anybody’s game except yours. – Yeah. (Rhett chuckles) But I’m still gonna drink. – But he’s gonna help me. – Okay all right. – Okay all right. We can tag team it. – Link’s on my side now. – We can tag team it. – That’s how it, that’s right, I can’t talk. – Stevie, what’s this? – Too much to drink. – This cocktail before you is called mango jalapeno. One has Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul’s Dos Hombres Mezcal in it. The other has mezcal from Monte Albon. This drink has mezcal, jalapeno, lime juice and mango puree. – Mm. – I kinda like this. – The mango helps balance the– – It’s not as strong as I thought it was gonna be though. Mezcal usually has a really smoky– – I just don’t know if I’m a mango to tequila mix type of girl. – This is kinda like brunch in Mexico. – Okay, there is a drastic difference between the two. – And it’s brunch in Mexico. – Oh my gosh yeah. – Phew! – There is a drastic difference between the two. – Woo! – Yeah. – Yeah. – I’m feeling one of ’em! (chuckles) – This one’s, B is extremely smoky. – We’re having a secret collaboration over here. What? – Which I don’t know if more smoky means more high end. – Yeah they did, yeah. – Or more smoke means– – I don’t either. – Cheaper. – So yeah. (Link mutters incoherently) – You know, mm-hmm. – Well I mean, A is really smooth. – Anybody else feeling real warm? – [Brie And Nikki] Yeah. (Rhett laughs) – How warm do y’all feel? – I feel so warm in the belly! – I wanna take my shirt off. – Goes like here. Yeah, let’s do this topless. – Yeah. – All right. – Oh no, don’t do that. – [Stevie] Okay! It’s time to guess. Three– – All right. – [Stevie] Two, one. – Oh. – All right now hold on. Before, now– – Oh. – Do we know we’re right because we can only win. – Yeah. – If we switch it up or if we get them to switch it up. – No I’m staying. – We’re staying. – We gotta go for it. – It’s so smoky. – We’ve got to go for it. – Yeah that’s the only chance you have at this point is if we’re wrong. – That’s true, you’re right. – But from a pride standpoint, everyone knows we were thinking this. – We were. (Rhett laughs) So you all know. – But for the win. – Okay yeah. – We’re voting for A. – [Stevie] This is why you don’t ask Link to be on your team because it’s in glass B! – Yeah! – Yes! – All right– – Couldn’t have won anyway. – Best. – No, I could have. I would have beat them. (Rhett laughs) – No you wouldn’t have. We won two. We were ahead of you. – There’s no way you could have won. – What we were supposed to do is we were supposed to make them switch their hands. – I know but it didn’t happen. – I need to teach you, I’m gonna have to teach you how to be a heel. – That is good, that smoky, that’s the way I like mezcal to be. And that means that me and Brie tied for the win at 12 which means we both win celebrity fist bumps so– – Bam. – There we go.
