No joke, I got home from work, looked around my kitchen, and thought "what a beautiful day to drink a smash. Let me see if Anders has a video for that" and I log onto TH-cam, and behold! This top-tier video had dropped 6 minutes ago. Thanks for the great content, Anders, and thanks for your psychic powers!
I just turned 21 in October and I can’t drink beer because I have celiac, but I’ve quickly found that the Whiskey smash is one of my favorite cocktails
Local blackberries are so ripe and juicy right now here in Oregon. I made the Bourbon Blackberry Smash tonight with Four Roses and my wife said it was the best cocktail I've ever made. Thank you!
Ok this bourbon blackberry smash is one of the best cocktails I’ve had in a long while. Sweet and tart, refreshing. Delicious. Thank you for this Anders!
The one with blueberries and thyme should be called Thyme After Thyme (because first you shake thyme up with the other ingredients, then you strain it and add a thyme sprig at the end).
Peach and Sage alongside the Bourbon Blackberry Smash are definitely going to be explored this summer. I was not aware of smashes but now you've started something. Thank you Anders!
I watched this, put my kids to bed, and told my wife I had to go to the store before it closed to buy fruit and herbs. I was not disappointed. Blackberry mint was good, but peach sage just amazing!
here in Brazil our classic smash is, of course, the caipirinha. the original recipe is made with lime and cachaça, but we make caiṕirinhas with all sorts of different fruits (berries, pinapple, passion fruit, you name it), and with vodka, rum or sake in place of the cachaça as well.
I am planning a cocktail dinner party but was thinking about cocktails I can easily batch. How did it go making individual smashes? We're you at the bar all evening?
@@brianherman503 I made 2 cocktails at a time for the smashes. I think it was the most time consuming of all the cocktails I made. I started with this one as my guests arrived, so no one was waiting too much.
I'm definitely getting some fresh fruit to try these tonight! I think it would be great if you do a video on adapting a couple of classic cocktails into an icecream recipe! I've tried doing a couple with liquid nytrogen and have enjoyed it a lot, but certainly would be awesome to have a video with your adaptations since you have a great sense of taste and knowledge. Obviously could be a recipe that could be made with a regular ice cream maker. Hope you give it a thought. Cheers! And have a great weekend.
I like to infuse the fresh herbs into my simple ahead of time for quicker cocktails. Super easy way to have the herb flavors release over low heat while the sugars melt.
Sage can be mild? Some sage advice - I've found that it can be one of the most powerful herbs, and a little can go a very very long way. Maybe we have different sages.
The selection of smash recipes in this video is fantastic. From the classic and invigorating Berry Smash to the exotic and tropical Pineapple Coconut Smash, each cocktail offers a unique combination of flavors that perfectly captures the essence of summer. The creativity and thought put into these recipes are evident, making them a must-try for any cocktail enthusiast.
If you can find arctic blueberries from Alaska or Canada, they have purple flesh and a whole heck of a lot more flavour than the white flesh, borderline flavourless variety you normally find in stores
@@TKGentryArt I believe they might also be sold as bilberries in the US? Might find some in the frozen section, there are some finnish companies that have a really good method for freezing them where they preserve both flavour and healthy anti-oxidants and the like
Already tried the blueberry thyme yesterday. Love it but next time i will go heavier on the thyme. Tequila mint smash is also great. Recipe is similar to the gin basil: Half ounce agave, one ounce limejuice, two ounces blanco tequila and a good amount of mintleaves.
Awesome Anders! We’re huge “Smash“ fans. Been making the bourbon blackberry smash for years, but with Demerara syrup. I’ve also made the strawberry basil version, but with bourbon or rye. Same with blueberry - with bourbon or rye. Basically, you can do all of these with whiskey.
Hey man! Just discovered your channel and am loving the light hearted and fun but passion filled craft you are sharing. Full disclosure, I don't drink alcohol at all, but my wife is a huge fan of mocktails and drinking fancy NA drinks, so I'm learning as much as I can from professionals like you so I can set up a small mocktail station at home. Overkill probably but I am a fan of what you do. Keep it up buddy! And thank you for the education
For all my midwesterners out there: the strawberry rhubarb smash (inspired by your strawberry basil smash): muddle half lemon and two large strawberries, add 1 oz rhubarb-infused simple syrup (1:1 sugar/water), 2 oz gin. Shake and double strain over large block ice (don't want to lose that tartness too soon). Might try a mint garnish but didn't have any on hand. Also tried with rum as base but preferred the gin.
Great video Anders! Thanks for the Tequila idea for the wife. I love using Rosemary and Gin. I did an Elderberry Jam Gin Smash a few weeks ago. Great way to use up extra jam or preserves.
See now these cocktails are my jam - it’s the right time of year and you know what, all I’m missing is some fruit rather than an obscure spirit that’ll cost me £40 to have gathering dust until the next time I make something really specific…… nice, I’ll be making all of these, thanks Anders 👌🏻
Wow! I’ve made the 1st 3, mint/basil/thyme. I thought the blackberry mint was awesome, but the combination of thmye and gin blew my mind! Awesome drinks!!!!
Awesome content. I really appreciate your highlighting the versatility of the smash formula and encouraging your viewers to explore. Btw, I also thought at one point that I’d invented the gin basil smash 😂
What a great idea…”mixing it up & keeping it fresh”…I love the versatility and flexibility to swap ingredients and herbs!👌👌😁😁….I will definitely try the rum strawberry basil smash! Great work Anders-CHEERS !🍹🍹
Strawberry/Basil is pretty magical. When I owned a cidery, I ended up moving away from that to a Strawberry/Hop combo. Specifically, Sorachi Ace since it is a nice savory hop. Really any hop works. I think my magic combo would be strawberry/mosaic hop. Anyway, there are myriad combinations. Cheers!
Hey Anders. Great videos! I make the blackberry smash with Redemption Bourbon. Delicious. I make the strawberry basil smash with Mount Gay XO rum and maple syrup. Delicious. Keep up the good work.
Hey Anders! The bourbon and maple syrup combo is definitely straight from heaven, and then you throw in blackberries! Have you tried the Second Circle? Bourbon, Port, angostura bitters and maple syrup. It’s become go-to cocktail, especially with a rye-heavy bourbon.
The Rum and Gin ones definitely have my attention the most, followed by the Peach Tequila one. Lets be real though, I'm probably gonna be making all of them in the near future!
I made 4 out of 5 already! They were all lovely but My favourite was the blackberry! 😊the original is a masterpiece as well! Blueberry - gin remains. But … question, how do you double strain the liquid so good? In my strawberry smash I pushed the liquid in the double strainer with a muddler and it stil took ages 😅 it was worth the work though!! Cheers!
Terrific video, I'll be trying some of these out soon. I make a similar one to the first, but use honey syrup instead of maple, and also add some rhubarb bitters and sage garnish. It's a recipe I got from a jazz club I've played at, one of their signature cocktails. These are all great for summertime with fresh herbs growing in the garden.
Really appreciate your stuff man. So easy to follow. So informative. I’m very much an amateur at mixology. Just started building my own home bar and I’ve done many of your recipes. So, thank you!
I didn't even think I liked whiskey until recently, but I can't say I've had a better drink than the Bourbon Blackberry Smash, using a proper dark Canadian maple syrup. What an amazing blend of flavours. Exquisite!
I make a really similar blueberry smash that I call a Blimey. Basically the same recipe, but swap out the simple syrup for ginger liqueur. Adds more proof, but hey, it's summer!
We just made the blackberry one and were on the fence about the maple syrup. It is just outstanding! Thanks so much for the work you guys put in and share.
they all look yummy. I have a huge limencello basil plant, so thinking of trying the blueberries or strawberries with that & rosemary basil. Also so glad you have the picks you use in the links, I was just looking for some
Anders, I loved the rum strawberry basil smash. I swapped out the Demerara syrup for a home made kiwi fruit syrup which produced an even funkier/fruity cocktail. Truly a delight, thanks for your genius 😊 🍓 🥝 🍹
I like making an orange blended sherbet cocktail. I use vanilla whipped vodka, orange triple sec, simple syrup, half and half, splash of orange juice, blend it with some ice in a blender and top with whipped cream and an orange slice.
I never comment on any bartending video like this but this video was awesome, every drink you made sounds amazing. I make drink’s similar to these. Ill mix peach and thyme, blueberry and mint, gin cucumber lime mint…awesome job
These look very interesting and will definitely make the vacation drink menu! Any particular reason you go with the lemon slices instead of juice and throwing in some peel for the shake?
Didnt have any maple or simple Syrup for the Blackberry smash. Used orgeat instead. Not perfect but does the job. Its way too hot outside to go to the store. Tried the Strawberry-Basil-Smash today and damn, it is delicious. Would have guessed I like gin and bourbon more but I think the rum wins here
Made the Bourbon Blackberry and Strawberry Basil Smash’s for myself and my family yesterday and they were a “Smash”! Super delicious and refreshing drinks, and man are they pretty to look at. Speaking of, You could call the Blackberry bourbon one, “The Black Beauty” Since it is closest to the Julip with the mint and bourbon it makes me think of horses, and it’s just the most visually gorgeous drink of all of them to me. 👌
Wow ! They all look delicious. Wait if I muddle strawberries in a mojito does that turn it into a smash or just a strawberry mojito I guess. bet it would be delicious
Such a great idea for summer man! Thank you for this video! Other idea of combo: Gin and raspberry is life, and adding aquafaba/white eggs in the smash cockail is 🫶
I just made the blueberries thyme smash with a grapefruit rosemary Gin and OMG! This is the best thing ever! I have to say I went drunk real fast because I just couldn't stop at one or two or three...
Made the bourbon blackberry and mint smash tonight and damn was that delicious. We only had frozen blackberries on hand but they worked well. Next time we host something we're planning on getting the ingredients for all four so we can provide the option of each.
Big fan and a big thanks to you and arigato to Az for great work. Any chance you’d consider doing a video on a drink with strega? It’s a great liqueur.
What I love about this video and this idea is that we're given the original base of the Whiskey Smash, and we're now given the opportunity to change things up a bit while keeping that same base. I think I might just go out tomorrow to buy a few different fruits/berries and try out these. Maybe not all... We'll see :)
Hi Anders! It’s been a while since I’m around here, back to Pandemic and I’d say you give me a new hobby! This clip is awesome, I’ve tried now two of four (Bourbon Blackberry and Blueberry Thime) and are really really amazing flavors… what about “The Herbal Berry Smash”. Regards from Monterrey, Mexico 🇲🇽
Also, for a quick and easy version you can swap out the sweetener and the berries with jam. Probably my favorite replacement for fresh fruit (if you can't find fresh, in season fruit).
Great timing, I host a happy hour typically 1st Friday of the month with a food theme, next one is “Get Smashed” with smash burgers and along with the PBR’s, I’ll set up a few smashes for my guests…
Have a smashing weekend, everyone! Which recipe will you be making?
But you are also Cute 😉
@@MrMoney331 aww thanks Chris
@@AndersErickson Apparently I put this comment under the wrong thing, it was supposed to be under my comment about how cute your dog was. Oh well 🤣
I think... I think I'm making all of them? I can't rule any out!
Watermelon and mezcal

which smash are you enjoying rn?
Literal same experience for me tonight.
I just turned 21 in October and I can’t drink beer because I have celiac, but I’ve quickly found that the Whiskey smash is one of my favorite cocktails

The one with blueberries and thyme should be called Thyme After Thyme (because first you shake thyme up with the other ingredients, then you strain it and add a thyme sprig at the end).
I vote for Blues Thyme
This has to be my favorite video of Anders. I think I've watched it like a dozen times!
Peach and Sage alongside the Bourbon Blackberry Smash are definitely going to be explored this summer. I was not aware of smashes but now you've started something. Thank you Anders!
Hope you enjoy them! Cheers
I think the Basil Gin Smash is one of mankind's highest achievements
@@brianherman503i can agree with that
trust me on this one: cranberry ginger smash with a gin or genever base. its absolutely incredible!
What form of cranberries do you use? Canned?
@@als.2983 i use fresh when they are in season. making a cranberry syrup is also nice
Oh that sounds heavenly!
That sounds amazing! I would do it with bourbon for Christmas
Roughly how much ginger do you put in? Two or three slices or do you grate it?
I watched this, put my kids to bed, and told my wife I had to go to the store before it closed to buy fruit and herbs. I was not disappointed.
Blackberry mint was good, but peach sage just amazing!
for the blueberry thyme i would try with more a little more fruits and the spanish gin called "Gin Mare" which has nice herbal mediterranean flavours
here in Brazil our classic smash is, of course, the caipirinha. the original recipe is made with lime and cachaça, but we make caiṕirinhas with all sorts of different fruits (berries, pinapple, passion fruit, you name it), and with vodka, rum or sake in place of the cachaça as well.
I had a cocktail party last night and I made whisky-mango-mint smashes, they were the hit of the night. Can't wait to try those!

I’m sure someone already offered this but just in case… the blueberry thyme smash should be called “Thyme for the blues”
nice one !👌
Summer Thyme Blues
Got a big ol' blackberry bush in the backyard. I know what cocktail I'll be making when it's heavy with fruit! Great looking recipes!
TO THE BAR!➡️🥃

It’s a holiday weekend in the UK, the sun is out and the strawberries are just starting to come into season. What perfect timing with this video!
I live that the sage garnish combined with the spiky peach slices somehow brings my mind to the agave plant.
I'm definitely getting some fresh fruit to try these tonight! I think it would be great if you do a video on adapting a couple of classic cocktails into an icecream recipe!

I came into the comments section to say just this! Please for the love of Maine go to the frozen aisle and get yourself some little bloobs
Thank you for the ideas.I will make the sage one first using mezcal.
What a bright, colourful and summer -ry video. Winner video, winner cocktails!

Just planted a bunch of unusual herbs. Rue, Lovage, Vietnamese coriander, 6 different varieties of thyme... going to be a smashing summer.
I'm dry for another 2 weeks, and absolutely salivating over these recipes. Can't wait to bring in summer with these cocktails!
Perfect summer cocktail formula! Made the strawberry basil with bourbon today at lunch. Thinking of trying Mango Cilantro Mezcal.
Blueberry thyme smash should be called the clockbreaker, because you’re smashing time/thyme

Here in hot humid Houston, your whiskey smash has been my go to summer cocktail. Can’t wait to try the others!!!
Definitely the bourbon blackberry one for me, thank you 🍹
Smash cocktails are new to me, and I love it! Beautiful display from the four you chose to make. Yum. This video is saved for reference.
Awesome content. I really appreciate your highlighting the versatility of the smash formula and encouraging your viewers to explore.
Btw, I also thought at one point that I’d invented the gin basil smash 😂
Great minds think alike
Absolutely gonna make 2 or 3 of these depending on which herbs and fruits I have in my kitchen
What a great idea…”mixing it up & keeping it fresh”…I love the versatility and flexibility to swap ingredients and herbs!👌👌😁😁….I will definitely try the rum strawberry basil smash! Great work Anders-CHEERS !🍹🍹

I recently discovered I really like gin. So I might try the gin basil smash you mentioned and the blueberry thyme smash very soon.
Greetings from Shanghai - you inspired me. It's Lychee season...so a Lychee Gin smash happened today. Thanks and keep it coming!
