detroit means the three rivers in french? could be a lie. That's the strait story.

The book references “here” because it was released as a publicity promotion for the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in NYC. I think that is what Ted means by “here” being NYC. I picked up a 1962 original full color version of this book last week at a library book sale for $2.00(!) and it is truly awesome in its full color version! Highly recommend. Edit: “here” could also refer to Detroit as it’s not clear if the notes came from Ted or from the cocktail authors.

"And I am not working to a bottom line." Since you were talking about reasons to round up, I was *sure* you were going to say "And I am not working tomorrow."

I replaced the chartreuse with Galliano. Turns it yellow like an exotic:) Tastes great too. I need a little simple syrup.

FYI, Detroit was named after the Detroit River, which in French was called Rivière du Détroit, or River of the Strait, as it forms a strait between Lake St. Clair and Lake Erie

I had the Mezcal variety - with just the Gin switched out - at Muldoon's Patio in Houston. It was my first and now I keep all those ingredients in my bar at all times.

I love this channel, never miss an episode and I always look forward to the next one. Greg, what we need now is for you to put together everything into a cocktail book. Include all the ways you can make your own syrups, different types of glasses used for different cocktails, outline all the different utensils you use or need to make a great cocktail, maybe even add a list of what every home bar should have as far as different spirits and other ingredients. I hope you have an amazing day, and I will wait for the book. All the best kid...

You're so calming to watch

I'm 23 and am starting to pick up mixing as a hobby. It would be very beneficial to me and those like me if you attach a price range per bottle on your ingredients as you added them. Love your content -- you're more or less my go-to now whenever I want to mix/learn to mix something!

Ohh, boy! That Chartreuse and Maraschino is PRICEY! My advice, especially if you don’t want to annoy the spouse, is to pick one cocktail that you really want to try, and then slowly (very slowly) build out your bar by adding a new cocktail to your menu every other week or so.

Been waiting for a Detroit native cocktail. Great video!

Man, I dig your show!

As someone who studies and teaches language for a living, I wholeheartedly approve of your sensible take on the mara-sheeno vs skeeno thing.

I really began to enjoy this drink more when I made it to the original spec, resulting in a 1 oz drink that can be dispatched in a sip or two. At a 2.5-4 oz range, I always get too fatigued halfway through to finish it, and this is one that really needs to be COLD. I think its intent and purpose is right there in the name... its the final drink, refreshing but complex, to close out a night on.

You named the mezcal drink without knowing it. You called it The End Result. Perfect name for this one!

One of my all time faves. Classic and fresh and spicy. Chartreuse is a banger

My favorite cocktail. Swapping the gin for mescal makes it an Oaxacan Last Word and it's delightful.

We actually just made Last Word for the first time & really liked it. I didn't know what to expect but it was a very well balanced drink. Also really like the mezcal variations. I'll have to put them on my list to try. Cheers!

Coming back to this video after you recommended this cocktail on Twitter. Your mezcal variation is close to a Naked and Famous (Mezcal, lime juice, Yellow Chartreuse, and Aperol) which is one of my current favorites. I also made a similar riff on a Negroni with Mezcal, Ancho Reyes, and Campari that turned out surprisingly good.

Just found this video and made the HTD #2. Game changer!

Holy hell that Mezcal variant #2 is amazing! Well done with the smoky and spicy. I didn't think I'd find a variant I liked more than the Final Ward, but here we are.

Love from Detroit

I love this cocktail. Currently I work at a Mexican restaurant/bar and they a variation with mezcal too. It’s basically Mezcal, Green Chartreuse, Pineapple juice, Lime and Agave and it’s served on a rock glass with a big ice cube. It is call “La Ultima Palabra” that means The Last Word in Spanish. Personally I love both of them!

Just tried HTD Word #2 and I think this is my new favorite cocktail. Nice spin!

I got into mixology because of watching you, tonight I made Blood and Sand, Corpse Reviver #2, and Bee’s Kiss. It was amazing.

A mezcal last word does exist!!! And to be honest, I only substitute the gin for mezcal and keep everything else the same. It's really good. Another substitution for gin I regularly do is a Peat's word (seen in John Brown Underground in Lawrence Kansas by the wonderful Cammie). Use peated scotch (JBUG used Compass Box Peat Monster and so do I)

I can't drink because of meds, but cocktails are fascinating, especially cocktail history! Thank you Greg!!!

Favorite drink :D. Looking to try your variation

He is right. Definitely do Chartreuse with the Mezcal Last Word. Been making this for 3 years now as my favorite at-home cocktail to make

I have been making this drink for the past few months, I do know of a version called the last of the Oaxacan's that uses Mezcal its from a bar in California. Also there is a mockingbird variant that uses watermelon and jalapeno and its wonderful. Great video as always!

Sweet vid, looking forward to the First Curse cocktail next week!

Hi Greg! I made the 2nd variation you made in this video with a locally distilled blanco in Portland, OR, and it’s also quite nice! The Ancho/chartreuse split was a nice touch 🤙

I did your Endgame swapping the Lagavulin for the Vida mezcal back on NYE and it worked very well! Called it La Ultima Palabra.

My favourite mezcal variant on the last word is the naked and famous Mezcal, aperol, yellow chartreuse and lime juice Its so good

the last word is the greatest shaken cocktail ever made

While traveling I finally found a bar that had chartreuse and was able to try this drink after 2 years of searching. Then went down the street and found a bottle of chartreuse at a liquor store. Happy days!!

Love the vid, was watching you on rimworld yesterday! Love it.

I made the HDT Last Word #2 with just a little less lime juice and it was fantastic.

Felt like watching Bob Belcher defending his choice of 'taut'. Great stuff!

I just applied the formula and did: Smokey Islay Scotch, Benedictine, Lime Juice, And Maraschino. I added an Absinthe rinse....Fantastic.

A bar in my town has this on their menu and i never gave it a second thought. Now i wanna go try it :D

I created a mezcal version I called "Smokey Words" at my bar. Also did a Heated Words variation with green chili vodka instead of gin, a crushed Thai chili, a jalapeno wheel, and a few dashes of Thai chili bitters. Both were quite popular.

The most notorious mezcal last word riff i can think of is the naked and famous (equal parts mezcal, yellow chartreuse, aperol, and lime). Your version seems delicious as well, will have to give it a go.

Actually had a Last of the Oaxacans, last night (a mezcal version, that ONLY replaces the gin with mezcal). Sooooo good.

Ultima Palabra would have been a good name for the Mezcal variation . . if that didn't already exist as a different cocktail. Oh well. Love the Last Word, glad to see you finally tackle it.

The Last Word and its variations are high on my list of favorite cocktails! One I really liked was the Bad Word - replace Maraschino with Gran Classico.
