I like your channel and don't mind sitting through an ad, but I wish that the ads were relevant to the content. I watch your channel because I like cocktails and I've bought from Viski because it's related to my interests. I could care less about Babel and will probably never buy from them, so it's kind of wasted advertising.

I’m old as dirt. When I was young, I lived in NYC in her neighborhood. And, I would see her walking around occasionally. She always wore pants and hat or scarf to avoid being noticed. SHE WAS DEVASTATINGLY BEAUTIFUL even without makeup. What a memory! I look forward to trying this drink.

Reasons Anders is awesome: 1) improves the recipe and 2) gives us two versions. Who wants to waste valuable cocktail time drinking something that isn’t good? When Anders says it’s good, you know it’s good.

Agree, and add the dog’s “intense level of interest”😂

Never said by a bartender ever, “Would you like a Number 1 or a Number 2?”

A Swede here! Fun fact; Greta Garbo can be found on our 100 SEK money (approx. 10 dollar).💶 💃🏻 This sounds like an exciting drink, but this weekend I'm going to treat the family to your white sangria recipe. Thanks for all the wonderful videos! Cheers! 🍹🥂

Struggled to get Kronan Swedish Punsch in the UK, my friend Dick Gustavsson to the rescue brought over a bottle recently. That was an afternoon of Doctor’s and everyone loved them. Now I can make a Greta Garbo No.2. Cheers. To the bar.

Perhaps the perfect drink to imbibe when you "want to be alone."

I was gonna say, maybe the “too sour” might be the joke since it’s a drink that wants you to leave it alone.

Swedish punsch is honestly one of the more underrated liqueurs out there.

I just made #1. I first, I thought it was too sweet. Then I remembered that I make rich syrup and you prefer semi-rich. I adjusted the syrup to 1/4 ounce and made a second #1. This is a delicious, bold cocktail. Thanks Anders!

It’s hot in Idaho right now, received the grenadine from OR and substituted for simple syrup in Tom Collins…very tasty!

I made the No. 1. There’s something special going on with the Luxardo and absinthe. It’s almost a chocolate flavor. My wife abhors absinthe, but asked me to make one for her after tasting mine. My new favorite cocktail. I’m going to try No. 2 tomorrow. Oddly enough, I have a bottle of Swedish Punsch.

When I saw the ingredients list I felt the same way: isn’t this just a sweetened Hemingway daiquiri?! Cheers!

Will definitely try these! Ty Anders

Your cocktail making videos are my favorite. Thanks for doing what you guys do

I have an old family recipe from the late 1890s (A recepie for making it, not using it , that is 🙂)

Just made #1. With the star anise garnish to boot. Fantastic drink. I have never associated Absinthe with refreshing drinks before, only Sazeracs and similar. But this and Momisette have opened a new world.

Ooh! I have all of the stuff for the Greta Garbo (No 1) and it's a drink I've never come across before. Maybe I'll try one tonight!

Great accent when speaking spanish Anders!!

Same!

Just made #1... really nice and refreshing. Recently got my first bottle of maraschino, so this was timely. Used Pernod in lieu of Absinthe, and a local lime from our tree here on Kauai. Perfection. Mahalo, Anders!

I like that the first one is opaque and makes the glass look frosted. Has that look of a classic cocktail.

Such a cool video and awesome lesson in cocktail history. Would have like you to touch on flavor profile and exchange options for obscure liqueurs like the Swedish Punch, maybe next time. Never heard of Swedish Punch. Great vids.. and loved the recipe.

Have to agree with you on that first version re the absinthe. I find Luxardo maraschino to be super bossy and it definitely needs reining in sometimes. I look forward to trying both versions - good to know Swedish punsch may be home-made as there is none in the several Canadian provinces I have been to recently. Unrelated hint: in Quebec they seem to be obsessed with Yellow Chartreuse, but not so much with Green Chartreuse, so anyone in Ontario or Maine etc., wanting the green should visit Quebec!

I have everything here for the number 1!!! I'll be making that either tonight or tomorrow 😊 please do a making Swedish Punsch video 🙏

"¿A qué hora sale el autobús a Guadalajara?" Hehehe ❤

You should rinse the class with MALÖRT instead of using the absint. That will most likely balance out the amount of lemon from the original recipe.

At the time of Greta, no Swedish cocktail would exclude punsch. I tend to agree with that still today, but am still fighting with getting this one not just balanced but also subjectively interesting. Punsch can be wildly different though, which makes figuring out that part alone a long process if you prefer not to buy every punsch you can find and then sit there with punsch for the whole town afterwards from all that did not quite do it...

Not really, because: A) It's not an equal parts cocktail B) There is no syrup in the Last Word format. It's one main spirit, two liqueurs, and one citrus.

Really appreciate the ml measurements for us european fans :)

ok, i'm familiar with lots of classic cocktails, but this one is new to me, and i cannot wrap my head around how this one has such different ingredients for each, and yet somehow bears the same name. how? how?? how did this happen? was there an Anders equivalent back in the day who tried the Embrey one and said, "meh, it's ok, but i'm gonna improve it" and that's where the 2nd one came from? switching from rum to gin is just wild to me. they are SO different!

Just a heads up with Punsch is that the flavouring and sweetness vary with a few commonalities. For example if you would have used Carlshamn (A Swedish Punsch made in Finland) it would not have needed any simple syrup as it is extremely sweet, Kronan is a bit less sweet and more complex and if you really want to have a really nuanced Punsch that isn't super expensive I would go with Facile

Hi Anders, we love your channel! Need your help/advice. I bartend a tailgate at USAFA. This season we'll have tailgates that start at 9:00am and 2:00pm. Pretty much bloody marys and mimosas versus kentucky mules and Jack and cokes. I need your recommendation for a large scale morning cocktail and a large scale afternoon cocktail. Ideally I can premix the day before and just add alcohol and then serve. We get 200-300 folks at our tailgate. Having a couple pre-mixed cocktails would be a huge help. First game is Labor Day weekend.

Cheers Uncle Pete!

Cederlunds Caloric punsch is a traditional Swedish punsch if the Americans wants to try it.

IMHO the best Greta Garbo film is "Ninotchka" from 1939, one of the classiest Rom-Coms ever made, co-staring Melvyn Douglas. The movie theater posters announced in all-CAPS "GARBO LAUGHS!!!" At the bottom, it says, "Don't pronounce it---See it!". Great movie. Sounds like two great drinks!

Greta Garbo is on the Swedish 100 SEK (100 kronor, about 10 dollars) bill as of today. Bet ya didn't know that! :D also I would recommend you to try Cederlund's punch, 'cause I share last name with the beverage but... I don't drink alcohol, so I don't know if it's any good. So maybe I shouldn't recommend anything I haven't tried. But.... it could be good! :D thanks for another great video

Is there a drink for Brigitte Bardot, Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, Jayne Mansfield, and so many other famous actresses? It could be an exciting series for this channel. And of course, let's not forget about the men actors too!

Admittedly I've only tried your version of a Sazerac, it's great. Though I will reference you vids when making an Old Fashioned, Boulevardie or Manhattan 🥃 I'm curious if you've tried a Michelada and what would you do to improve it or make it your way 🤔

Hi Anders! Looks like I'm way early.

@AndersErickson

You're right on time

Though Swedish punsch can differ vastly, as mentioned earlier, they are generally very sweet in themselves. So I kind of feels it a little weird to cut down on the punsch and substitute with simple syrup. But I guess you already had tried just cutting down on the lemon juice in order to make it less sour. The punsch might kill the gin if they're equal parts, though. (Disclaimer: I've never tried the Kronan Swedish Punsch. It's not that common in Sweden. The most common are probably Carlshamns Flaggpunsch, Cederlunds Caloric, and Grönstedts Punsch.)

Where has Swedish punch been my whole life

I wonder if you can substitute Chartreuse for the absinthe

When knew me and Greta had something in common, when I turned 35 I too didn't want to be around other people.

Please do some Vesper's, including DUKES Bar version. Much appreciated. Don

Upped the Kronan to 20ml just because I wanted to, subtaly tones down the Bombay Gin. Cheers

Haven’t got maraschino liqueur, any recomendations for a substitute or would the syrup from my jar of cherrys work.

I wonder if "The Doctor", given the swedish punsch is a reference to the well known (scandalous) book by Hjalmar Söderberg, called "Doktor Glas" it is, after all contemporary with Garbo in some way, and both Garbo and Doktor Glas have made the journey from popular stars, to high cultural reverence. Just a thought. Thank you as always for the video Anders and Oz!
