I'm Molly, a typical sushi, makeup, and fashion loving millennial girl who just so happens to be blind! I was diagnosed with Retinitis Pigmentosa at just 4 years old and began public speaking at age 5. I started just doing motivational speaking, but now I make videos and even model! Even though I can’t see, I know that there are bright spots in everything we face. Let’s find them together. 💕
What do you think of this? Was it user error, a faulty machine, or just a bad product?
It is NOT a user (sighted or not) friendly device. Also there should have been a stronger warning regarding the drink pods: (1) that separate vendors were involved in shipping and most importantly (2) even if the cardboard container was not open drink pods were not returnable. Well if nothing else, this was good You Tube content!
@Skye haha yea! Mollie with an I the TVI and Molly with a Y
I felt you and your mom's headache trying to get the machine to work.😵 At least you know it's a terrible product firsthand instead of wondering. 😬
Please do a video with Joy Ross! She’s been completely blind for 12 years now and I think y’all would make beautiful videos together!
@Jamie B exactly what I came here to say! If it's the same machine, maybe give the pods to Sierra 😊
This wasn’t a fail because it made me laugh.
1:11 I love hearing molly claim her Irish identity as someone who's lived in Ireland my whole life :)
Just drink it out of the pod and add ice 😅😅
"Ok well I don't need cheap coasters" 👀
I totally get the "people-thinking-you're-way-younger-than-you-are". Traveling to Ireland in 2019, my friend and I were asked if we were on a school trip with our secondary school (we were 24 and 25) and also told we couldn't go into the 21+ pub in Killarney because we didn't look old enough (they eventually let us in after looking at our passports again)
I do not understand the purpose of the machine. Just sell the concentrate from the pods in bottles and tell people with how much cold water they should mix it. Ice cubes optional. Boom Drink done! This machine does nothing but cause work, but the cocktail mix might be good...
hello friend
Skip the machine and just become the cocktail mixologist you were secretly meant to be. You could make mock and alcohol with cute names all from your very creative mind. I am with mama. The cleaning would be a hassle after a few weeks.
After kureg's general named kureg machine the company went down hill in my opinion
I was half hoping you'd get the machine stuck on french and gallop would have to fix it. In my head, he has a french canadian accent in his head.
Screwdrivers are my fav
Dr. Theo cured my herpes. He also cured my colleague from retinitis pigmentosa. And now she can see clearly. Both day and night. She can see colors clearly, he lived in US here. Email him: drtheoherbalhome@gmail.com
As someone else said that long island iced tea didn't look like one. I'm under the legal drinking age and I can tell you that. Do they think people wouldn't notice that?
Not a cocktail but there is this Indian rum called Old Monk, that with Iced tea is heaven
i love molly but I have a real issue with influencers trying to get things for free......
I'm in a design class right now for products and what we learn is that it is NEVER the user's fault :) It's always the designers' fault! Seriously.
For some of them, you can open the pods and blend them with ice in a blender or magic bullet. It should come out great (coming from someone who uses the bottled cocktail mixes at home with a magic bullet).
I’m sorry but I was wondering. How is your bf? On the other hand how are you?
I think musicians training their hearing to increase their pitch perception is a reasonable analog to this. When you NEED to hear the nuance and use the information, your brain will focus more on the stimulus, whatever sense it is. A common trick among (sighted) musicians is to close your eyes to listen closer, and it really does help focus on only the sound. The brain does a lot of odd tricks to make processing what is happening around you more efficient (for example, your nose is technically always within your visual field but the brain “edits” it out). The adaptability of the human mind is really pretty amazing.
I love anything with rum. Its better if it sneaks up on me. Long Island Iced Tea is one of my faves.
Peach Shnappes, Blue Curaçao, OJ and Lemonade
I love your videos they always make me happy🥰
My want for one went 📉
Buy carbonated water and puncture the pods and mix it in a glass. It would do the same thing. :)
i prefer whiskey sours, pina coladas, and ammeriato sours.
That moment when you’re under 21😔
Please! I need to know where that pink set is from. Im obsessed 😍
My favorite cocktail is a gin buck (ginger ale, lemon juice, and gin) or a very dirty martini
I was skeptical about the concept. I am sure that there is a good machine out there. Maybe an even affordably priced machine, but the process seems to be overly complicated whether you are sighted or not. I am glad that Molly still uploaded the video. This video had humor, drama and heartbreak (and maybe even a nom for next year's Streamy?). Unfortunately now I wish I could go to a pub for my fav drink.
0:35 These notifications could be because of something from the same person. I'm sorry to see your device is so inaccessible.
i went to sleep with molly's videos playing on my laptop and the beginning of this video woke me up & scared the shit out of me hahaha. much love!
Can you give the pods to Sierra Schultzie? She has a Drinkworks machine.
You can probably open the alcohol pods and mix them with sparkling water yourself
Long Island ice tea. Is my go to.
love ur comments.......
My favourite drink is a Caipirinha!
Well sence Im not legal drinking age I'll say my fav soda mix SUICIDE (u mix every soda u can) But I also like 3/4 root beer and 1/4 Cream soda it's just like a root beer float
Really that machine 🙄 poor Molly and Mama Bee; Molly Recipe for the vodka limonade Take limonade add you favorite vodka and ta-daa just add lemon zest for an extra Kick
Whiskey sour is my favorite!
Pornstar martini 100% best cocktail ever
I'm below drinking age, but my mom's friend loves making cocktails and mocktails, and she makes a great raspberry mocktail.
I just checked the drinkworks website and they now have a g and t lmao
My favorite cocktail is a pina colada 🍹
Yaaas! Love your honest accessibility review! Super interested to see other reviews on more household appliances & AT you and Adrian incorporate into your daily lives! Appreciate you & your content! Much love ❤️
I can see clearly now. All thanks to Baba Theo Herbal Cure, I was afraid of getting blind because of retinitis pigmentosa. I am happy. Dr. Theo herbal product did a magic in my life. If u have anyone suffering from this same sickness, or any other virus. Pls do contact him on: drtheoherbalcure@gmail.com
The Bartesian is the one everyone likes
i am Irish but i can't drink because i am 10
My dad has this machine and he loves it, however he did need to replace it once because it wasnt working correctly.
You werent putting the pods in right i think
I recommend Tabooze for instant cocktails! I'm blind too and really like their products
4 things about Bill Gares you might not know. See this video with this title, Molly.
Hey Molly, Im not sure if you new about this or if you have it or not but there is a device that you can buy the you out on the side of your cup or whatever you are filling up and when the liquid hits it, it will make a beeping noise and the beeps get faster if the liquid has gone over. Also I think most of them are adjustable but I have no idea what they’re called... I think it’s liquid measured or something like that. I’m not too sure but it really helps me so yeah, it’s just an idea. (They come in different colours so if anyone else needs them, they have really good contrast and they’re magnetic so you can put it on your fridge or something.)
Just add the drinkpods to some water in a glass, as all the ingredients are in there. You can buy soda water to add the sparkling sensation (but most of the drinks you chose are not carbonated anyways)
Umm I really don't what to be rude but I get it that she said she is blind but she is not really Bec she made her self a koktal and blind people can not see any thing I am sorry if this is rude to same people but I am not trying to be rude I am just really confused
Blind people aren't completely helpless, you know? They are capable of doing things
My favorite drink is a Bloody Mary
I want to know what the Bartesian drink machine is like. Maybe you could try buying that one and let us know!! Maybe the pods will fit with that brand
The baritisan or however you spell it seems so much better
Could you do a review and a how-to on how you use your Nespreso machine for multiple drinks?
My favorite cocktail is probably a mojito!
I literally forget that Molly’s blind every single time I watch the videos 😂 Love you Molly
do a video on your coffee machine/coffee faves!
Molly, can you voice your opinion about DEhave closing community captions feature?
I am watching this video after three whiskey sours...
Turn the pod the other way
Thats way too complicated. I would have given up within the first 5 minutes and made my own non carbonated drinks with the pods lol. I think i may have a tiny bit more vision than you, but i doubt I'd be able to read that screen. The letters look like a weird dark shade of blue and are very small.
Why use the machine, why not just pop one of those pods open and drink it 😂😂
Add water or sparkling water to the pods! Shake or stir accordingly 😘😘😘
I thought that you were Canadian? Are you American?
One time my grandma's cat went missing so she went and asked the neighbor that she didn't know was blind if he had seen it he said I haven't seen anything in 20 years
@hellomissannie He was so sweet he was a stray he just walked into the house one day like he owned it
@raynagarrison oh no, RIP Frosty :(
@hellomissannie no sadly RIP Frosty
But did they find the cat?
So not a video fail at all! Looks like a royal pain and not worth buying. Mixing your own cocktails is FAR easier than all of that! And more cost-effective.
My favorite drink is a rusty nail. Love hard liquor! For anyone that hasn't tried it, I highly recommend. It's so delicious!! 😋
Heads up that it does say “home bar by Keurig” on the box since you were wondering
Thanx for being always so transparent Sara
Maybe You can just pour the liquid from the pod, add water and drink, so You have some use of the pods ?
I bet if you shake then pierce those pods, pour some sparkling water and ice, it’s do things juste fine !
I really hate those pods machines for the environment factor, but I always tell myself that it's so good for people with different disabilities. This machine (and the world) should be accessible. I'm so sad it didn't work :(
wanna make it easy? Buy some of the toppers for liquor bottles that bartenders use to measure shots. Easy peasy.
Is there a way to get the alcohol out of the pods? Break the top off if needed.
It’s a catch 22 with accessibility I suppose because some disabilities include not being able to press down on actual buttons well , so those people benefit better from touch screen. The best idea would be to include both functions so that people who can’t press as well and blind people can enjoy .
G&T, Malibu and Cream, Fuzzy Navels, Margaritas
THE DRINK POD IS UPSIDE DOWN 😅 Lol your mom should have realized that the pod shape matched the machine shape at the top. But still not a great option for you with the touch screen. 💖
Im so happy you made this so i wont buy this one! BUT i think you should try others!
Jalapeño margaritas are my favorite
I saw a machine on TikTok where it's similar, but you supply the alcohol and pour it into canisters, then I think there are pods for flavoring. Looked really cool, and better because you get to choose the quality of your alcohol. I wish I knew what it was called!
An aviation! It uses violet liquor and gin and nobody sells them at restaurants!!!
I looooove this drinkworks machine. You were putting the pods in wrong & making everything so hard & complicated lol
Gosh. Watching this was painful... I can only imagine being the ones experiencing this. You could probably resale the pods on FB or other platforms. 🤷🏽♀️
I know someone with a bartesian and they absolutely love it. You put your own liquor into glass bottles for the machine and screw them in, and the pods have everything else for the cocktail like bitters or essences, and it’s far less complicated. She’s also blind. So what she did was add little stickers with my help right next to the screen pick spots, because it’s a simple system - pick your strength (no alcohol, low, medium, high), and then “mix” The initial setup because you’re adding your own alcohol is a bit much but it’s just that one time if you like several types of liquor.
I saw many of your videos before I relized that you were blind😁 It looks like you see into the camera😍🥰
Love me a good Amaretto Sour!
Molly just because you mentioned it, it IS the same company as Keurig. It even says on the machine "Drinkworks by Keurig"
This is like the third video Molly has filmed in this pink ribbed shirt and I want it so bad 🥺 my guess is it’s from AE but I can’t find it
I now want to see you try a legit mixology video. Grab a shaker, jiggers, and strainer, and chat with someone who's into mixology! There are different shaking/measuring/pouring techniques for different types of alcohol, and once you learn flavor combinations you can start to make some of your own. Maybe a collab with "How to Drink"? Also, if you're interested, Cutwater Spirits (based here in San Diego) makes canned cocktails which are absolutely awesome. In fact, one of my friends is a lead distiller! My favorites are the vodka mule, and the lime margarita. Though you have to be careful; some of them are strong!
My go-to drink in college was vodka cranberry. Because they were usually $1 or $2 and would get me drunk fast 😂 Now I just drink wine mostly!
Now I know why they didn’t want to send you one. They knew it was not accessible
If the mods have everything In them I'd just add to carbonated water and see how they taste.
this seems to me personally like way more work then it is to normally make a drink unfortunately
You don't look 16 lol.
I like beer, like a real man (jokes, beer is gender inclusive). Not a huge fan of cocktails but if I had to choose one I’d choose a Bloody Mary, because apparently I’m a 70 year old, rich divorcée.
Moscow mule, mojitos, margaritas, Cran vodka, fireball and lemonade. I like whiskey and ginger ale. I don't really drink tbh. I'm a one and done kind of person. My family makes fun of me because I'll milk a drink the whole night. I really don't like the feeling of being drunk and I'm such a light weight.
