The one and only HEMINGWAY daiquiri

[@AndersErickson]

Please don't drink 16 of these cocktails Don't forget your bottles from Curiada! bit.ly/hemmingwaybottles

[@mr.smoker4147]

I'll be sure to stop at 15

[@monotonehell]

You're not my papa! (I'll stop at two.)

[@TheLongwei]

Don't tell me what to do

[@waynecapuyan912]

So...17 is the challenge...

[@awalton9024]

I am taking your advise to heart - 17 it is.

[@jackimyers9364]

More Hemingway history: He would mix up a daiquiri at home before driving into Havana at the Floridita. He made it large enough so he wouldn't run out until he got inside the bar.

[@Dr_Bombay]

i heard (read?) that he would put it on the dash, and it would slide back and forth as he made his way from home to the bar, too.

[@tedwojtasik8781]

Great writer, absolute garbage human being. Not 100% his fault though as he had suffered from psychosis as early as the late 40's due to family history and several traumatic brain injuries. So I kinda give him a pass. Poor bastard, even his demons had demons.

[@cronosmu]

@@tedwojtasik8781 I mean, many members of his family comited suicide. There was something quirky, to say the least, in those genes. Some point to hemocromatosis. There's also the fact that alcohol is not very good for blood glucose regulation. But who am I to talk, I'm deep into a bottle of whisky and don't plan to stop right now.

[@Dr_Bombay]

@@tedwojtasik8781 i hate calling him a garbage human. he was an incredible writer, and a veteran, and many of the things he suffered from we just didn't understand back then, and even now are still figuring out how to best help.

[@slickytail]

​@@Dr_Bombaybeing a veteran actually makes him a more garbage person

[@TheRealMcCoyRum]

Literally one of our all-time faves! Thanks for including us - we're honored! Cheers!

[@l.steinbrenner8161]

This is an all time favourite and takes me back to my travel days in Cuba. Your videos have brought more joy and knowledge to my days than you can imagine. Thank you, sir. Cheers from Brazil.

[@lollygee172]

Yay! I have all the ingredients! Friday cocktail decided! Thanks again Anders and Az!

[@fiarandompenaltygeneratorm5044]

Do you have enough for 16 cocktails though?

[@Gr33n1230]

It really does feel good tho when you have all the bottles and can just go make it 😂

[@heatherbell5306]

You guys are SO good at this! Regardless of the cocktail, a new video from you always makes my day. 😊 Will definitely be mixing up a Hemingway!

[@jameshageman6244]

Ahz cracks me up. Put a ring on her finger already!

[@teddydanielson4225]

Can’t believe I’ve never had a Hemingway Daiquiri despite loving rum, spending some summers in Key West (visiting the Hemingway house of course), and almost always having the ingredients! I’ll have to make one soon. Also, Jeff Berry’s “Potions of the Caribbean” has tons of great information on La Floridita, Constantine Ribalaigua Vert (it’s legendary bartender), Hemingway, and the various daiquiri versions served there. Excellent read for those who want to dive deep into Caribbean cocktail culture.

[@mei-mei9055]

Az’s outfit 10/10 🔥

[@UnclePete]

Gosh I love these, might have to get a grapefruit soon. Perfect for the hot summer we're having! Cheers Anders!

[@AndersErickson]

Couldn't agree more. Cheers Uncle Pete!

[@uraniumrock8381]

You two guys are my favorite KZbin booze guys! Do a collaboration!

[@UnclePete]

@@uraniumrock8381 I mean, obviously I would do that ;)

[@Mark723]

Outro was lots of fun - thanks for the recipe, history and explanation. You make a great team!

[@ceooflonelinessinc.267]

Friday evening for me: Erickson and chill.

[@michaelclapinski4844]

Ok call me crazy, I want to see the recipe for the Papa Doble. All hail the rum.

[@Mahunashizzle]

I bought a bottle of Luxardo last year solely for this cocktail and then discovered it’s great in a bunch of stuff!

[@jsmarty1]

This is my go to “litmus test” drink when going to cocktail bars. It’s very easy to mess up, but when done well, it’s a refreshing drink

[@toesniffer9452]

Man I’m a few months away from being 21 and I’ve been watching you for 3 years. Ima be ready 😂 my bar starts at midnight!

[@AndersErickson]

You'll sure know more about what you're drinking than I did at 21. Cheers!

[@katarinajanoskova]

Genuine question (from a European) - would anyone be mad if you drunk at home? I mean if you are 20 and rent a flat and go to work and make yourself an Old Fashioned on Friday evening, would that be weird?

[@Lasciatemi_Guidare]

⁠@@katarinajanoskova plenty of Americans drink alcohol before they turn 21. The hard part is acquiring the alcohol, since you’d need to know someone over 21 to buy it for you.

[@brodystogdill2379]

Didn't have a grapefruit, so I added a 1/4oz of Aperol and bumped the lime up to 1oz. Pretty tasty!

[@EtruskenRaider]

The Hemingway is the cocktail I probably make more than any other at home. I use the recipe from The Office cocktail book which is heavier on the citrus juice but we still love it. 2 oz light rum (Plantation 3 Star) .75 lime juice 1 oz grapefruit juice .25 oz rich (2:1) simple .25 oz maraschino

[@johndallas7770]

plantation 3 star is so good for daiquiris and Hemingways!!

[@EtruskenRaider]

@@johndallas7770 and affordable!

[@Dr_Bombay]

!t's a sign! my husband just asked what i wanted for tonight's cocktail, and it's been so hot here today (100F), and we don't have air conditioning, so i've been craving something with a lot of ice. i said, "...Dobles?" and so that's what we were planning to have after dinner. I sat down to eat, and said, "hey, it's friday -- let's see what Anders recommends!" and just like that, it was clear. Great Minds!

[@patrickknight2375]

This is my absolute favorite warm weather drink! I like to switch the proportions of the juices and hold back a little on the syrup, but I will never say no to one. Thanks, as always for your great content.

[@theislandretreat4550]

Always a great presentation!

[@jschoenack]

TO THE BAR! ➡️🥃

[@loganschmidt1118]

Another Friday, another new cocktail to try courtesy of Anders & Az!

[@AndersErickson]

Happy weekend

[@jackimyers9364]

Wonderful summer drink, strong and assertive.

[@stxnbns]

The most beautiful coupe glass ever. I love it so much. Oh dear, Az looks sooo pretty. The glasses look really good on her. 🤗☺️

[@SirJoshuaCohen]

Should do a series on low number if ingredient drinks for when you don't have a lot of stuff.

[@Popietro]

Probably one of your best end & call to action video xD Cheers

[@JustMe-fz5uc]

This was fun to learn all that. This might would be tasty. I love Az!😂

[@EvenOlderThanBrian]

I ate dinner at a Cuban restaurant last week that seemed to have a riff on the Hemingway: Aperol instead of grapefruit juice! It was quite delicious. So at home I’ve used your recipe but subbed both Campari and Averna (in separate drinks!). Both were really good with interesting flavor profiles and colors. I’d recommend to anyone to try this with your favorite Amaro.

[@CraftyPumpkin]

This has been my summer drink of 2023. So refreshing.

[@Danny-qi4lp]

Some friends got together and decided we were going to make our favorite drinks from your videos. We didn't realize how many there were. We made them anyway. Needless to say we only got about 1/3 of the way through until we erred on the side of moderation. Another great video. You and Oz make a great team and produce some great content.

[@PIXAUL94]

Ik work at a cocktail bar called Hemingway's. We have the Daiquiri and the Papa Doble on the menu as well. This would be a great addition.

[@sharenaazucena418]

One of my favorites

[@georgejasper8794]

Love the Hemingway! Funny story, I made one for my daughter's boyfriend and he thought it was a shooter and slammed it! Messed him up and of course everyone gave him static. This is a summer favorite!

[@comradecid]

1:40 clearly the man liked his drinks strong, his women far stronger, his life exciting, and his cats multi-toed.

[@carlupthegrove4201]

I'm going to try it tonight..... I cannot drink grapefruit juice due to a med I'm taking so I'll be doing a riff on a riff.... :-). thanks, you two are the BEST! Rock on.....

[@PaigeC-xf5kx]

Yes this is a very tasty cocktail. Luckily in Canada we have Havana Club (like 4 different varieties, sorry!) and you are very right about the Luxardo maraschino - it can be very bossy. Have not had one of these in a while but you have inspired me to revisit it. I miss the old white grapefruits. No matter what people say, they WERE more tart.

[@LeavingForParis]

I may have squealed out loud a bit when I got the notification for this! XD I'm happy to say this is the same ratios I have always used, though I have never tried the peel in the shaker, excited to try that!

[@grantwalkersound]

If you're ever in. Phoenix, AZ... Go to Bitter and Twisted and order Hemingway's Demise. They add bitters and an absinthe spritz to the rim... Also they use heavier rums... Smith and Cross and Flor De Cana. It's absolutely delightful.... then order everything else off the menu, you'r welcome.

[@benandrovich112]

Amazing video!!! I will play with the ratios and follow up. Thanks

[@RawleighLeeRoth]

I made this Friday night without simple syrup and DID want it a “tad” sweeter….will try adding next time around!

[@Vadacax]

Beautiful drink and video as usual! Have a great weekend Anders 😎

[@AndersErickson]

Thanks - same to you!

[@letortua1044]

Made this yesterday, tasty drink, my wife loved it, so did I)

[@mp-yo4zc]

thank you daddy anders

[@addisondebter9468]

I got to visit el Floridita earlier this year when I went to Havana! Pretty touristy now but still a cool vibe. Got a pic next to his bust in the corner of the bar with Fidel lol

[@jaimethiessen]

Az is lovable. Goodness you make a great team. Make it a very regular routine that she joins at the end.

[@stacywithnoe]

I literally ordered a Papa Doble for the first time 4 hours ago and legit thought the bartender there had created it themselves. 😅 It was dangerously good.

[@RumitheBartender]

My guy don’t miss 💯

[@jliebersteinoboe]

Perfection in a glass.

[@travelingman45]

You should consider using pillar rum since that’s his families’ distillery, plus it’s just straight up great rum

[@josephrudys2615]

Found the Real McCoy Rum at Walmart that surprised me, had all the rest of the ingredients, not sure but maybe my favorite cocktail ever, wow flavor city thanks

[@NickGuzelian]

I have determined, thanks to this drink, that orange liqueurs and now cherry liqueurs are nauseating for me after one drink. So in a way that’s great, I don’t crave a second. Very nice drink overall, and I don’t want a second. I’m like this with margaritas made with Cointreau as well now. It works out

[@brianfiorella1265]

More Az!!! More puppy!!!

[@Commish2009]

This will become my new drink of choice! I can tell by the ingredients. Thank you.

[@ArthurMillerJr]

Absolutely delicious. So glad I tried this.

[@cloudforest4087]

Great duo. Thanks for the recipe.

[@tonymarra4371]

Love the Hemingway! I’ve never regal shaken it and I’m definitely going to try it next time.

[@AnsticePalo]

You can get Cuban rum. Just go up to Canada to buy it. You can also order it online from the UK but be prepared to pay almost 200 bucks for a 20 dollar bottle of rum.

[@uraniumrock8381]

Damn fine cocktail.

[@lianakangas6806]

Stoked to try a new summer drink! The sign off worked I totally didn’t realize there was a Patreon despite watching heaps of videos haha!!

[@cavemandrew5565]

Wondering if you would ever do a video on pre making cocktails to keep in the fridge. I have sangria, mojitos and Caesars currently pre-made but I'm wondering how long they will last and if there are other drinks that I can pre-make for the summer.

[@tommyhosteng7799]

I like to sub home-made grenadine for a pinker color, but I agree, it's much better with some sugar. I like your recipe. The smuggler's cove hemingway daquiri is very dry, for me, but it is well balanced.

[@ericbiederman6949]

This is my "cocktail of the summer" and it's working out well for me so far!

[@Mark_Wood]

that looks great

[@yodaforclass]

Anders, you are Awesome! You have a great delivery that is short but not too short, and you are always super-informative. And, WOW, was this drink a hit with my wife and me! Thanks! Cheers!

[@maximp-ru7or]

It is a great cocktail, I use to put a little of salt too

[@ralphmuller248]

It‘s a pity that there are just thumbs and no hearts to click on. You guys are such heartwarming sweeties and it‘s great fun to watch the vids! Thanks for doing this 😃

[@ultimatemaitai]

much better recipe/ratios than what I normally see.

[@harrington2488]

Thank you for a fun and great channel!!!

[@stevefinnegan5142]

Drinking one now. Highly recommended

[@jimhill1234]

First try, made it per Anders's instructions (rum change due to necessity). Very nice. Ran out of semi-rich simple, however. Second iteration, made my wife's with agave syrup and mine with lemon-lime oleo saccharum. Hers was pleasant, mine blew open the doors. Highly recommend that substitution.

[@CreepyHisoka]

let me start of by saying: I absolutely love this cocktail. was out of grapefruit today so I tried adding half an ounce of cointreau instead, was sweeter but also lovely

[@philipc6553]

I recently acquired a bottle Havana club (de Cuba) 3 year. It’s grassy on the nose but also has a funk to it. Made a delicious daiquiri!

[@Nasosdag]

Aha! A third recipe to try! Kevin (Kos) introduced me to the Hemingway daiquiri, and I loved it. Then along came JF with his excellent version, for those days (or nights) that one needs a drier rendition. But tonight I'll be mixing Anders' (Αnders's...?) recipe. Now which 13 other cocktails should I have... 🤔

[@antiyscocktails]

Another great video ! The wait is always worth it :-)

[@paulmasiello6818]

4 parts white rum, 2 parts lime juice, and 1 part simple syrup. Shake and enjoy

[@ericyardley9348]

Great cocktail. I think a small swath of grapefruit peel is all you need. Cuban rum!

[@frann.8879]

Hi Anders….I love a good daiquiri….the perfect drink to beat the heat!👌👌I do promise not to drink 16 of these.🤪🤪. ….and beautifully served as always👏👏enjoy your weekend-stay cool-CHEERS!😁😁

[@dorkdumproductions7900]

I discovered this cocktail about 3 months ago, and I’ve been trying to find *just* the right ratios for me. I usually do it with 2oz rum and 1/2oz grapefruit juice, but maybe I’ll try it with 1.5oz of rum next time!

[@dimitarapostolov9788]

I got a grapefruit for zests for White Negronis, and I was just wondering what to do with the fruit... 😂 Perfect timing! Cheers Anders & Az 🥂🍸🍹

[@AndersErickson]

Love it. Cheers Dimitar

[@abeyromero8250]

I am going to try this soon. It is hot here and It is cocktail time. Thanks you are awesome. Also I love watching you and Oz together. I hope to find my Oz soon and make her a great cocktail from one of your recipes.

[@TravellerRDS]

I like cocktails with grapefruit and this one sure is tasty. I made it with the classical Havana Club 3yo, but also tried to up the game and either add 0.5 oz Smith and Cross, or completely replaced the Cuban with the Jamaican rum. it became fabulous! Cheers!

[@toadman10]

HELL YES. making this bad boy when I get home from work today 😎

[@bradywarwick2409]

Cheers Anders!

[@GPSjammer]

How fortunate, I just juiced some grapefruits!

[@illgrooves]

Classic gin martini w orange bitters and a little luxardo. Also read for whom the bell tolls.

[@benkreutzer]

One of my all time favorites! I'm doing it with a little bit more Rum (2oz), less sugar (1/4) and more grapefruite juice (1/2) - I'll try your ratios next time and I'm very curiouse about shaking the peel! Cheers!

[@itsaflyboything]

one of the real disappointments of becoming old is not being allowed to have things with grapefruit in them anymore 😢

[@robdielemans9189]

Never made this one, tempted. I do regularly (although not 3-5 a day slowly as Ernest would've done back in the day) make a death in the afternoon.

[@Trudelleable]

Didn’t realize you had coffee beans! Just ordered a bag to try it out 🙌🏼

[@cwTheDrummist]

That looks delicious. I haven't dove too deep into the rum drinks yet. This might be a good entry point!

[@gordonlandis8863]

Great riff on the daiquiri, I love a little grapefruit in rum drinks! Also love Az’s glasses, are those new? Hot hot hot!

[@DanielBrice7f58a6]

My preferred build is a lot more aligned with Hemingway's original specs. 0.25 oz Luxardo, 0.25 oz grapefruit, 0.75 oz lime, and 2 full oz of JM White agricole, at 55% abv. I like to serve it in an old fashioned glass on one big rock.

[@CandyAnne65]

Perfect for National Daiquiri Day on Wednesday 7/19!

[@netanelizhakov7592]

Man you read my mind! As national daiquiri day approaching I was thinking i should give the Hemingway daiquiri another try but I'll have to change the recipe a bit more to my liking and this is the exact ratio I had in mind!! Including the grapefruit regal shake!!😅

[@JJDSports2012]

This is a great cocktail, but I skip the simple syrup. The maraschino liqueur adds enough sweetness for my taste. I do like the peel addition.

[@frederickheard2022]

Fantastic! Now, I’m off to drink 15 of them…

[@dgenis74]

Fantastic recipe!

[@kjdude8765]

I'm a bit late on this but I cheat with a few dashes of grapefruit bitters instead of using up a grapefruit for 1 or 2 drinks.

[@grantwalkersound]

Acid adjusted grapefruit juice might be an interesting way to go with this cocktail...
