The video features Binging with Babish's celebration of reaching 8 million subscribers by recreating the "Mississippi Queen" drink from the animated TV show Regular Show. The host gives a tour of the new BCU studio, introduces new team members, and showcases a new kitchen setup. The original Mississippi Queen recipe is deemed unpalatable and expensive, so the host creates a revised version inspired by a Bloody Mary. The revised drink features a mixture of tomato juice, chili sauce, rice vinegar, clam juice, soy sauce, fish sauce, kimchi, horseradish, wasabi, and habanero pepper, topped with seafood such as shrimp and scallops. The host finds the revised drink to be rich, spicy, and savory, and recommends it as a unique twist on the classic Bloody Mary.
