Stick with me here! Bit of a deep dive on creative boundaries in the classic cocktail world. Cheers! 🥃 You don't need all these bottles to make one Deshler, but you can get them all at Curiada! 👉 bit.ly/Andersbackbarspirits
Sounds delicious. Stopping at Binny's today to pick up the Dubonnet - def trying this tonight. Might get some Lillet Rouge and Pierre Ferrand Dry Curaçao too ... looks super interesting. I dig swapping thing out, we've been doing that with the Ward 8 this week (Office Recipe Book version) trying with regular lemon and meyer lemon (which really works great).
Great instructional and fun video. Will definitely give this a try. And wait, Vermouth needs to be refrigerated after opening and only last 2 months. Yikes!!!
I was thinking the same thing. The pace, presentation, humor, lighting, illustrations, gorgeous shots... this is one hella creative duo who genuinely seem to enjoy doing this. Wonder if it pays the bills by now :)
Right? I like that it’s accessible. There’s other channels where it feels super long winded and pretentious but this is like Bob Ross makes drinks vibe
In philosophy, there's a thought experiment called the "Ship of Theseus," which asks how many alterations/repairs a ship at sea can undergo while being identical to the ship that initially set sail. In light of this, I suggest that we call the modified, modern Deshler the "Sip of Theseus."
Other than the actual cocktails themselves, the best part of this channel is the history portion. It really makes me appreciate the cocktail even more. History transforms a cocktail from just a tasty concoction to a story. It’s brilliant. I hope that you merge with The Rake or Mr. Porter. You’re just what they need.
@AndersErickson this is the only channel on RUclips which provides a complete knowledge of cocktails and the presentation of him is the best part how he showcase his talent and spread the knowledge of drinks which he have and he is spreading his knowledge in best possible way
Great video! I love these more in-depth looks at the history, variations on a drink (or ingredient, or drinks you can build with a certain ingredient), and the comparisons from a bartender and a non-bartender. Keep up the great work; I keep coming back for more videos!
Hey Anders, I just wanted to say you've been really inspirational for my home bar setup and some of your favorite cocktails have made it to the house favorite list! Great work!
Too much you say? No, this is the opposite! This is exactly what I want and hope to see - comparisons, classic recipes, history... This is the kind of content I love from you and I hope you keep doing more of these! Cheers Anders and Az!
Thank you sooo much for making a video with Dubonnet! So many people have no idea what it is. I've been mixing with it for years and it's so underrated. Thanks to you it will be out of stock at my suppliers now hehe.
Love your videos man, beeing bartender for 6 years and actually I lost my love for this because I felt like everything was the same. But I start watching your videos for a competition and I fall in love again with cocktail world ! Thanks
Not 'too much' brother. Love the back and forth and analyzing of different variations. Ignites larger discussions about interpretation, without ignoring the tradition! Cannot wait to try all three and pic a favorite
Loved this Anders! I love learning how to make a cocktail but getting the history behind it amplifies the experience to the next level. Solid work, my man. Also, Az is a rockstar!
Honestly this is the type of exploration that I love about your videos and as a bartender I really appreciate this channel for teaching me about this drink and more. Thank you Anders for the inspiration and passion
I love these videos where you go further into the history of the drink, keep going. Can I also just say that the animations and illustrations you guys use when you tell the story are always SO GOOD, I love them. Does Az do them all??
Not too much at all. I love the history, the comparison and the objective opinion along side your professional opinion. It's all good and much appreciated. Please, keep them coming.
Love the exploration of the idea of slight modifications changing things, as well as both of your opinions on what you prefer taste-wise. Appreciate the video, and keep up the good work!
Thank you! It's been so great to find a cocktail channel where every single cocktail is exactly to my taste. I love the history aspect, I love the focus on not doing anything unnecessary but what IS done should be done well. The graphics and overall aesthetics are great too, and not too heavy on the manly man man-cave vibe which are endlessly tiring. Thank you again! I look forward to every video!
As a newbie into the 'whole cocktail thing', as opposed to just getting hammered, appreciate your dive into the history behind the drink . Plus, Az is always fun. :-)
That was so....dippin a toe into the water. 👍👍 The whole cocktail thing is just one part of a life spent searching for new experiences and then taking the time to make them your own. Very glad you have matured past the hammered phase. Many (many!) never do.
Manhattan is my go to drink so will have to give this a try. Even though I will probably not make most of the cocktails in your videos I still enjoy the history, the presentation, and watching the process of creating the drink. I find the videos very entertaining.
Obsessed with this! I use substitutions when I want to try a drink all the time. Sometimes it comes out a bit different, but that's how you end up creating new drinks! Gonna try this one with what I have in my cabinet tonight!
Loved it! I like that you gabe us the original, but also showed the ways you can be creative and alter while still being true to the essence of the original drink!
When bartenders get too uptight or obsessive in their adherence to the "original" recipes it can choke creativity to explore, and as you so pointed out, potentially improve the cocktail. In my opinion the right recipe is the one that you or your customer enjoys. Thanks as always for the masterclass on another classic Anders and Az!
This kind of variation and evolution comparison is brilliant. Your concern was clear but I for one really enjoyed it and hope to see more like this in the future. Great job!
I'm currently drinking - and really enjoying - The Deshler 2, my first experience of this drink. It is delicious, so many thanks for making the video and showing different ways it can be made
Fantastic video. I’ve been building my booze collection and learning new cocktails along with your videos. I must say out of all the similar youtubers in this category, you have the most charisma and entertaining/educational videos. Keep up the good work, you have a great format!
Not too much, but you knew that. I know it may feel a little loose, and if you were doing one of your skills or deep history episodes it “might be”, but…. This is a workshopping video and your loose style and ability to bounce into the current aspect of the drink/process/story is actually a nice way of being present in the moment with your audience. Thank you.
On the question: "Was it too much?"..... I gladly answer NOOO! This was great in my opinion. Got to get the last couple of bottles in to make this one.....but that will happen. Great stuff again; thanks!
This was great! I made a non Deshler: 2oz bourbon, 1oz sweet vermouth, 1/4 oz Cointreau, and 2 dashes angostura orange bitters, because that is what I had available. It was good. As I am drinking it in hot weather and want it to last a little longer, after several tastings, I added 2oz of orange seltzer just to give it some volume and make it a slightly less spirit forward drink. Thanks for the video.
This in-depth content is great. There is so many cocktail channels now that just making a drink (unless it is unknown/unique) doesn't add anything new to the conversation. More of this!
I like the deep dive! I’m all about the story behind the drinks, so the more the merrier. But more so, I like watching you two interact with each other - you make a great duo! Can’t wait until next week, keep it up!
great content, I love how you delve into the history of a cocktail and compare\contrast against modern interpretations, super interesting and fun to watch!
I love this not only for the great drink recipes and history but mainly for Az’s exit take away! That is so me 😄 Too cute. Love what you both do!! Thank you ♥️
Really enjoyed this Deschler video! Especially liked Az's (sp?) appearance and commentary! Please have more videos with both of you in front of the camera. Cheers!
I'm going to agree with most of the comments here - a well-balanced video in two ways. First, between the history, the philosophy, and the recipe, and second, the balance between the expert Anders and the layperson Az. She is the secret ingredient. Keep it up!
I’d say overall the thing I really like about this channel is how you promote flexibility and creativity in drink crafting. So a welcome topic and nice to switch things up a bit. Would even be interested in seeing something like a debate with a bartender who’s more rigid about recipes, discussing the line of when is a Deshler (or other cocktail) no longer a Deshler.
I really liked that video. All of your content feels like a personal conversation at a bar, which is not surprising. It seems like there are fewer and fewer actual bartenders today with even a fraction of this knowledge.
Loved the video. Very interesting how the original was so different from the others. The variation from bar to bar has always amazed me. Cocktails can very between bartenders at the same bar. A hand pour vs a measured pour can make a big difference.
Thank you so much, I have never heard of a Deshler but it sounds amazing. I have all these ingredients so I will do the same as you did and get back with you after my girlfriend and I try these.
So, use the "Newbonnet", eh? Now, off to my local to pick up a bottle and play w/ the Deshler options. Always appreciate the background and history you share - super-interesting how these thing morph and change over time. I love when you bring Az around, as her reactions are genuine and come from a place of not having experienced these drinks, which is great to see. You two have definitely boosted my interest in knocking about with cocktails - my girlfriend is both happy, since I'm making new fun drinks and miserable, since our bottle "collection" has exploded from maybe a hundred or so (mostly Scotch and bourbon) to probably twice that in the past several weeks... Cheers, and keep these coming!
I really like the format. It's fun to experiment with drink variations to arrive at the one we like best. Your take on the flavors helps us to know if a particular bottle or ingredient is going to be up our alley, so to speak.
Finally another classic drink! Classics are my favourites! ❤ I have to try making this one, never had one before!Nice video, Anders and Az! Cheers to the start of a great weekend!
I really enjoyed this video. I'm a sucker for historical trivia and love seeing variations on a classic. My partner and I made the Deshler #2 last night and found it delicious-a really nice variation on the Manhattan. We'll be adding it to our boozy drink catalogue. Thanks!
Excellent video and agree that these “variations” videos are a great learning tool for us newbies. I think I may just have to get a bottle of Lillet rouge!!!!
I’ve been getting into cocktails (mostly rum) and I’ve become fond of your videos. I like that, it seems, more recently Az has been getting in there with you to taste the drink and not be mysteriously behind the camera giving a tiny bit of feedback.
There's something in Az's expression right when Anders first sips the original-original-original Deshler (8:11) that cracks me up 🤣 The editing in these 2-3 seconds are great!
As others have said, it's the stories, histories, and presentation that sets your channel apart from others. You don't have to look 'slick' to present well (and better). Went out tonight and added Dubonnet to my bar (I've got Lillet Blanc but can't get Rouge). With my homemade whiskey, it's quite tasty. The Dubonnet is only a little more than basic Port but has a nice fruitiness to it. Will have to see how it goes in a Porto Flip.
Anders, for reasons that should be obvious to all, videos with Az are more balanced and have a fresh and bright flavor profile. That being said, you're both top shelf in my book.
Love the history and the comparisons! I’m a fan of having the variations, I still go back to the Singapore sling episode and go between both recipes. My brother in law asks me to make one of those basically every time he’s over, so he appreciates it too!
@@AndersErickson lol! Thankfully yes, though I am partial to the more complex one myself, so sometimes I just do a double of the complex one and split it. works fairly well, though you can't fit a drop more alcohol in there by the end!
@@AndersErickson Hey, in this vein, can you do a Chartrues episode? I love some of the various cocktails, but I am wondering about substitues and the non-normal cocktails (outside of last word and final ward). thanks!
Great cocktail. did the nr 2. looking forward to do the other two. Allways trying to get my hands on something with a a classic touch. Fab regards from Sweden
You guys are so sweet. This is a very informative quickfire passage through time, taste and trial. Very well produced and edited. So much fun. Love you two.
I don't know why each time I watch your videos, I end drinking and getting wasted trying to follow your recipes ahahaha. Cheers. I enjoy a lot your videos!
Stick with me here! Bit of a deep dive on creative boundaries in the classic cocktail world. Cheers! 🥃
You don't need all these bottles to make one Deshler, but you can get them all at Curiada! 👉 bit.ly/Andersbackbarspirits
Sounds delicious. Stopping at Binny's today to pick up the Dubonnet - def trying this tonight. Might get some Lillet Rouge
and Pierre Ferrand Dry Curaçao too ... looks super interesting. I dig swapping thing out, we've been doing that with the Ward 8 this week (Office Recipe Book version) trying with regular lemon and meyer lemon (which really works great).
Can you post recipes in comments? Also, thanks for including Az
I love your videos #doeasy
Great instructional and fun video. Will definitely give this a try. And wait, Vermouth needs to be refrigerated after opening and only last 2 months. Yikes!!!
Great channel! My wife and love your videos. I swear you’re the voice on the latest Verizon 5G commercials 🤔
Whether Anders realizes this or not, he produces one of the best channels on RUclips. It’s all in his presentation. Respect.
I was thinking the same thing. The pace, presentation, humor, lighting, illustrations, gorgeous shots... this is one hella creative duo who genuinely seem to enjoy doing this. Wonder if it pays the bills by now :)
Right? I like that it’s accessible. There’s other channels where it feels super long winded and pretentious but this is like Bob Ross makes drinks vibe
Completely agree! Delivery, editing, content spot on.
Agreed, other cocktail channels on RUclips are a bit awkward in comparison.
Totally agree!
In philosophy, there's a thought experiment called the "Ship of Theseus," which asks how many alterations/repairs a ship at sea can undergo while being identical to the ship that initially set sail. In light of this, I suggest that we call the modified, modern Deshler the "Sip of Theseus."

History transforms a cocktail from just a tasty concoction to a story. It’s brilliant. I hope that you merge with The Rake or Mr. Porter. You’re just what they need.
I couldn't agree more with your comments about the "history" portion. LOVE it!
This was a great video! I love the deep dive and comparison. Definitely wasn’t too much for me :) Keep up the great work, Anders!
Thanks, Lucas! Enjoy the weekend!
@AndersErickson this is the only channel on RUclips which provides a complete knowledge of cocktails and the presentation of him is the best part how he showcase his talent and spread the knowledge of drinks which he have and he is spreading his knowledge in best possible way

Thanks, Nathan! We'll keep going. Cheers!
Ah, the ol' "If you carefully remove one grain out of a heap of sand at a time. When is there no longer a heap"? Love this.
Hey Anders, I just wanted to say you've been really inspirational for my home bar setup and some of your favorite cocktails have made it to the house favorite list! Great work!
Thanks, Stephen! Happy the vids are helping. Happy mixing!
Too much you say? No, this is the opposite! This is exactly what I want and hope to see - comparisons, classic recipes, history... This is the kind of content I love from you and I hope you keep doing more of these! Cheers Anders and Az!
Oh my, the presentation of the cocktail with the drawings starting at 1:27! 😍
Great production, great video! Thanks Anders!
Thank you sooo much for making a video with Dubonnet! So many people have no idea what it is. I've been mixing with it for years and it's so underrated. Thanks to you it will be out of stock at my suppliers now hehe.
No this is awesome. It’s really fun to see the evolution of mixed drinks over the decades!
If you paid close attention, it was not too much. I love the deep dive - it was good EDUtainment. Thank you!
Love your videos man, beeing bartender for 6 years and actually I lost my love for this because I felt like everything was the same. But I start watching your videos for a competition and I fall in love again with cocktail world ! Thanks
This makes me happy. Cheers to you!
Was it a video watching competition? 🤣
Not sure if Anders reads the comments....but his videos have made my alcohol consumption and spending go way up. I love making the drinks he shows.
Same. And they're excellent!
I love these videos , classic spirits and the history is what keeps me coming back !
Not 'too much' brother. Love the back and forth and analyzing of different variations. Ignites larger discussions about interpretation, without ignoring the tradition! Cannot wait to try all three and pic a favorite
Loved this Anders! I love learning how to make a cocktail but getting the history behind it amplifies the experience to the next level. Solid work, my man. Also, Az is a rockstar!

Thanks, Scott! Yeah, the artwork's all Az! I love it - happy you do too!
She’s so talented, you guys make a perfect partnership, no wonder this channel has grown like it has! Looking forward to the next one.
Not too much at all. I love the history, the comparison and the objective opinion along side your professional opinion. It's all good and much appreciated. Please, keep them coming.
The education/discussion aspect is great, perfect length; not to short to be meaningless, not to long to lose attention.
Love the exploration of the idea of slight modifications changing things, as well as both of your opinions on what you prefer taste-wise. Appreciate the video, and keep up the good work!
COMPETELY FASCINATING. Love the tough questions, more like this please!!!!!!
I recently learned about the Ship of Thesues paradox and then this video drops and makes that philosophical question real! Fun!
Real positivity. Creative editing. Clean graphic design. Andrea, your videos are brilliant.
Thank you! It's been so great to find a cocktail channel where every single cocktail is exactly to my taste. I love the history aspect, I love the focus on not doing anything unnecessary but what IS done should be done well.

Love Oz's sign off too. Too funny. Loves the history lessons behind the drinks.
As a newbie into the 'whole cocktail thing', as opposed to just getting hammered, appreciate your dive into the history behind the drink .
Plus, Az is always fun. :-)
That was so....dippin a toe into the water. 👍👍
The whole cocktail thing is just one part of a life spent searching for new experiences and then taking the time to make them your own.
Very glad you have matured past the hammered phase. Many (many!) never do.
Impossible not to smile watching you both at the end!
Love the History of the drink. Thanks for being tru to your craft and sharing all the fundamentals when assembling these drinks.
Thanks, Timothy! Cheers!
I really like when go into depth. I always learn a lot, and gain appreciation for the drink.
Manhattan is my go to drink so will have to give this a try. Even though I will probably not make most of the cocktails in your videos I still enjoy the history, the presentation, and watching the process of creating the drink. I find the videos very entertaining.
Never heard of this drink….that is why I like the channel. You are the professor of cocktails. I enjoy the history you present as well.
Obsessed with this! I use substitutions when I want to try a drink all the time. Sometimes it comes out a bit different, but that's how you end up creating new drinks! Gonna try this one with what I have in my cabinet tonight!

I loved this evolution of the drink.
I just started mixing after watching you two. For the last year...ish.
Thanks for the inspiration.
Absolutely love you guys! Without fail you brighten up me Friday evening. Thank you and keep up the good work!
Thanks, Jason! Enjoy the weekend!
Of course, should’ve said my Friday evening otherwise I sound a bit like a pirate! You too dude.
Hi Anders. Thanks for the upload. You always inspire me to try new things at my bar. Thanks always
Thanks, Tanner! Love to hear you're trying new things behind your bar. Happy mixing!
This kind of variation and evolution comparison is brilliant. Your concern was clear but I for one really enjoyed it and hope to see more like this in the future. Great job!
I'm currently drinking - and really enjoying - The Deshler 2, my first experience of this drink. It is delicious, so many thanks for making the video and showing different ways it can be made
Great video and concept Anders - would love to see more of the same! Keep up the amazing work!
this was NOT too much....I love these videos.....you and Az are a great team!!!!
Fantastic video. I’ve been building my booze collection and learning new cocktails along with your videos. I must say out of all the similar youtubers in this category, you have the most charisma and entertaining/educational videos. Keep up the good work, you have a great format!

This is a workshopping video and your loose style and ability to bounce into the current aspect of the drink/process/story is actually a nice way of being present in the moment with your audience. Thank you.
Awesome episode! I love the deep dive episodes because I learn so much about the spirits themselves and of course the cocktails!
Not too much at all! I really enjoy hearing the history and the "why" behind cocktail recipes. That and you explain it very well!
Can't wait to try this one!!! THANK YOU for such great content & of course the TT&R! I'd love to see you make the Hunter bourbon cocktail sometime.
On the question: "Was it too much?"..... I gladly answer NOOO! This was great in my opinion. Got to get the last couple of bottles in to make this one.....but that will happen. Great stuff again; thanks!

VERY COOL comparing the various versions like this. It really allows and encourages us to experiment!!!! Thanks once again!!
Love hearing that. Happy mixing!
So, use the "Newbonnet", eh? Now, off to my local to pick up a bottle and play w/ the Deshler options. Always appreciate the background and history you share - super-interesting how these thing morph and change over time. I love when you bring Az around, as her reactions are genuine and come from a place of not having experienced these drinks, which is great to see.

Not too much at all! This was great - I love this sort of video. It really helps me get a close look at a drink.
Great video, Anders! I've never heard of a Deshler, but can't wait to try one.
Finally another classic drink! Classics are my favourites! ❤ I have to try making this one, never had one before!Nice video, Anders and Az! Cheers to the start of a great weekend!
Thanks, Dimitar! Hope you enjoy this one!
+1 I'm trying to master the classics. And I don't care that the Paper Plane isn't a classic, it counts!
I love this! And both of you! More of anything you do! Cheers!
Simply fantastic video and content. Love the history and educational bits. Cheers!🍸
Like your style Zander’s and Az! I aspire to be a person that can whip up a cocktail and I love the history you share…keep going!
I really enjoyed this video. I'm a sucker for historical trivia and love seeing variations on a classic. My partner and I made the Deshler #2 last night and found it delicious-a really nice variation on the Manhattan. We'll be adding it to our boozy drink catalogue. Thanks!
Love the variations especially if you don’t have the same harder to find ingredients 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽
Excellent video and agree that these “variations” videos are a great learning tool for us newbies. I think I may just have to get a bottle of Lillet rouge!!!!

Love the history and the comparisons! I’m a fan of having the variations, I still go back to the Singapore sling episode and go between both recipes. My brother in law asks me to make one of those basically every time he’s over, so he appreciates it too!
Hope your brother in law likes the simpler version if he's having you make it every time!
@@AndersErickson lol! Thankfully yes, though I am partial to the more complex one myself, so sometimes I just do a double of the complex one and split it. works fairly well, though you can't fit a drop more alcohol in there by the end!

This was awesome man! Keep doing these informational videos! Skål from Sweden!
Loved this episode. Keep it up, but also old format, too, with recipes.
Great cocktail. did the nr 2. looking forward to do the other two. Allways trying to get my hands on something with a a classic touch.
Fab regards from Sweden
Yall are just so much fun to watch! 😀
Love the deep dive. It’s helps to understand the process of adapting and balancing a cocktail. You’re really helping me raise my amateur game!
Now I need to order some Dubonnet.
I love to watch your videos with a cocktail. Tonights was an Amatitan Twist. Fantastic video as usual.
I love the comparicion of the coctails you make im from México i learn a lot from You cheers
You guys are so sweet. This is a very informative quickfire passage through time, taste and trial. Very well produced and edited. So much fun. Love you two.
Love it! Thanks for the history and experimenting! You two are a lot of fun.
Always full of information Anders, lol well done, best wishes to you and the Mrs from Steve, Wales, UK 🇬🇧
I don't know why each time I watch your videos, I end drinking and getting wasted trying to follow your recipes ahahaha. Cheers. I enjoy a lot your videos!
Followed #2 Deshler recipe. Absolutely delicious!
