I bought your grenadine it's fucking AMAZING, but it says limited run on the order form... will the place that made it be carrying it long term or was this a one time made batch?
Yes, you could have an after show where you and Oz just enjoy the cocktails and shoot the shit. This would be especially entertaining with episodes like the recent one where you sampled 10 different grenadine cocktails.
SAME. I was so excited, tossed it in a cart and left it there when I saw the shipping. I get that it’s out of anyone’s control and especially sucks for small businesses but yeeeeks. Ya know? 😂
Greetings from Romania! I started watching your videos and coctails about a year ago. They are awesome :O I got my first coctail set for my birthday, and i am real👏ly excited to try all your recipe. Keep up the good work 😁🥳
Heh you were pretty close on the German pronounciation of "Funk". It's a "short" "U"-sound like in "put" and "butcher". Definitely gonna try this one. Cheers 🥂
Hi Anders! Your videos are awesome! Since long time! The presentations are precise, stylish, informative and it's well cut/assembled. Always! Thank you a lot! Your videos are a real present/gift/gem to the community! And btw: you german pronunciation of 'funk' comes with a heavy american accent, which is fine, guessing you didn't have lots of practice on this. I love the dialects and accents of my mothertounge. Der 'Funk' translates to wireless or radio, while der 'Funken' translates to spark, but this is another story... Cheers and zum Wohl!
That's right, because Funk (or Funke / Funken) means spark and the first radios were based on sparks (pop spark transmitters), hence the word Funk for radio. Dr Funk's name is much older though. So my theory is that his ancestors were blacksmiths or fireworkers. Funk, Funck, Funke and Funcke are common family names in Germany.
I have my own riff on this inspire by Tower of Power that I call The Funky Doctor. It's a bit stronger in that I use three really funky rums: Probitas, Smith & Cross, and Hamilton Jamaican Black. I also swap out the absinthe for all spice dram. Just remember, hipness is what it is, but sometimes hipness is what it ain't.
I had most of the ingredients on hand - including the amazing grenadine! (No lemons so I just used lime). And of course I don’t have the fancy blender. But so tasty!!
Sorry, but: 'Der Schiss' is incorrect translation. The meaning of 'Schiss' is literally shit or fear - such a big fear you shit yourself. But the meaning of 'Funk' is wireless or radio or broadcast. So no funky funks. Just to clear ehhhmm things out.
Yes! I love this cocktail! I made it with 2oz of the Hamilton Pot Still Black like in Smuggler's cove! Dr.Funk is the perfect name because as you drink it "funky" (in a good way) is the first word that just keeps coming to your mind. I also bought a $20 milk frother for flash blending my drinks and it works pretty well!
We will add this to our tiki menu. We have added your grenadine and tried most of the drinks from the grenadine announcement video. We also added your rocks glasses, bar mat, and t shirt for our bar. The local craft cocktail we want you to visit here in Florida has been featured twice as the training site for Bar Rescue. We are going to one of the rescue bars tonight as a matter of fact.
Hi Anders, 2 things.. 1) what would be a good substitute for Fiji rum? And second, i just received my Grenadine from Portland syrups.. and yes, that is some AMAZING stuff! I also purchased the Orgeat tiki syrup which is extremely good as well.
Buying some sparkling water today! I’ve got everything else already (except rum from Fiji). Think I’ll do a split of Smith and Cross rum and Plantation 5 Year.
I don’t wanna sound like a dick, buuuut your website would be INFINITELY IMPROVED, if you linked what beverages one could make with the bottles You get me? I don’t know if with tags or filters, but if someone wanted a bottle or two, it might be helpful if they could select, then see what they could also make with something added
That’s a tasty drink. I didn’t have Fijian cane rum so mixed 1/4 ounce paranubes and a 1/2 ounce prohibitas, alongside 3/4 ounce of the ultimate Mai Jamaican mix. Very nice
Hello Anders Long time subscriber. I happen to be in Chicago with my family on vacation. We’re headed to the Violet hour for drinks tonight. Any other cocktail bars you would recommend in your town? Thank you. Javier
Noooo Anders!! This is where I come to get away from those terrible Hamilton mixers! Also, how do you cut yourself on it? I've probably been making something like +200 drinks a day on those things for 5+ years, and I've never cut myself or seen anybody else do it.
I finally got a bottle of Absinthe in my bar (I got Lucid, I like it pretty well so far!) and I'm very excited to mix up some cocktails like this one. I have Smith & Cross and I hope that might work for my funk, if anyone else has other suggestions lmk!
It is entirely your fault that I now have Smith and Cross Jamaican Pot still rum and Kaniche Fiji rum plus Barsmith Grenadine. I am waiting for your Grenadine (order placed) but used what I had and it was still delicious.
Just made it today; used Smith & Cross, some Dr. Bird, and some Wray & Nephew. Outstanding. Oh, and I’m not saying I made a trip out to Portland just to get the grenadine, but it was a definite must stop at Portland Syrups when out there.
Awesome video and great drink. You did miss a great opportunity to use Doctor Bird’s Jamaican rum. Doctor is in the name, and it’s got a great “Funk” to it. Definitely can only be used in small doses though 😂
Anders, quite the O face when you were fondling your new "equipment." Calm down there cowboy, that baby is quality, she will be around for years to come 🥰
What are a few rums you would substitute for that Fijian rum? I’ve never tasted rum from there, but I do have rums from lots of other places. Ha ha. I love rum.
Wish your grenadine was available in Sweden, everything we have in stores here is literally raspberry syrup labeled as grenadine (it really does not contain pomegranate at all). But I’ve made my own using your recipe, so ’tis all good!
I love your videos and your presentation. I have made many of you cocktail. Only thing is I live in the UK and can not always get many spirits hete. Life sucks some times
I have noticed a bottle of Centerba for quite some time in your background. Any chance you have some history and cocktails for that? I have only had it when my Italian neighbour digs it out as a shot during the holidays.
Another great episode! I do feel conflicted about the grenadine because I all ready make it homemade (per your instruction) and I can't imagine it getting any better.😅
Will your grenadine go bad in the fridge after a month or two of being open? Any stabilizers in it for longevity? If I make my own with Pom sugar and rose water it doesn’t last that long and generally isn’t worth making.
Mmmmmmmmmm, that is sooooooo good . Just made my version with what I have on hand at this time. My son offered me his Captain Morgan’s Private Stock, and it’s not bad 🍹
Anyone else mixing up drinks with a milkshake blender?
Pretty much do it all the time at home. It’s a shoulder saver 😂
Know what ya mean!!!!@@chadsimpson7978
Derek from Make and Drink does it all the time
@@AndersErickson Yep but only for cocktails containing juices that froth up like pineapple juice. For others I just shake.

Anders, that's the sound of a gauntlet being thrown down!
You hang up first. ☎️ No, YOU hang up first! 📞. Cheers, happy weekend!
We ALWAYS want to see your dog!
Never would have guessed that the name Dr. Funk was actually based on a doctor named Funk.
Surprised me when I first heard it too
I suffer from cafard anytime I find my hand devoid of a tiki drink. This recipe seems legit.

Looking forward to making it, now I've watched this 😊 🤭
Hope you love it. Enjoy the weekend

I have to make this now, Dr. Funk is my cats name
Congrats on the flash blender, wow that has been a long time coming

Heh you were pretty close on the German pronounciation of "Funk". It's a "short" "U"-sound like in "put" and "butcher". Definitely gonna try this one. Cheers 🥂
Your best work yet. Everything about this episode was excellent. Keep kicking ass!

With the 2024 Summer Olympics coming up in Paris, France, could you make some drinks for the olympics, maybe featuring some French bottles?
Brilliant to see I lost my mind on absinthe. This is absolutely the one drink to rule them all.
That was almost this vid's title! Clearly we're on the same page
Funk in german ist pronounced like you told and means something like Radio, but it can mean military chat via walkie talkie.
That's right, because Funk (or Funke / Funken) means spark and the first radios were based on sparks (pop spark transmitters), hence the word Funk for radio.
Dr Funk's name is much older though. So my theory is that his ancestors were blacksmiths or fireworkers. Funk, Funck, Funke and Funcke are common family names in Germany.

Nah, Bru, That's Bootsy Collins.
Der Funk, der Schiss...pretty interesting, and we all get depressed sometimes. We can get symptom relief from this Dr. Funk Rx.
Yes. In a funk? Well, Dr. Funk is the cure!
Sorry, but: 'Der Schiss' is incorrect translation. The meaning of 'Schiss' is literally shit or fear - such a big fear you shit yourself. But the meaning of 'Funk' is wireless or radio or broadcast. So no funky funks. Just to clear ehhhmm things out.
Im from Germany: you pronounced it well :-)
Yeah, it's Funk with the U as in Tunesia, not in Punk.
Funk or Funke means "spark" in German, so Dr Funk's ancestors were probably blacksmiths or fireworkers ...
The smile that spread across my face when you pulled out the mixer
How’d you get turned on to the Fijian rum? You mentioned you had just found that, was that in the course of researching for this cocktail?
Also curious!
We need the Funk, we gotta have that Funk owww
"Avoir le cafard" from French (litterally, to have a roach) is to be sad, depressed, and have melancholy
Yes! I love this cocktail! I made it with 2oz of the Hamilton Pot Still Black like in Smuggler's cove!

Hello Anders
Long time subscriber. I happen to be in Chicago with my family on vacation. We’re headed to the Violet hour for drinks tonight. Any other cocktail bars you would recommend in your town? Thank you.
Javier
I recently restored two Hamilton beach milkshake machines. So I’m all in on this one.
Noooo Anders!! This is where I come to get away from those terrible Hamilton mixers!
Also, how do you cut yourself on it? I've probably been making something like +200 drinks a day on those things for 5+ years, and I've never cut myself or seen anybody else do it.
Great cocktail Anders! I really appreciate your love of Tiki! Also the proper pronunciation would be Fijian (Fa-gee-in) rum or Fijian people.
Got into your amazing club soda in Cozumel past March. Truly exceptional.
I finally got a bottle of Absinthe in my bar (I got Lucid, I like it pretty well so far!) and I'm very excited to mix up some cocktails like this one. I have Smith & Cross and I hope that might work for my funk, if anyone else has other suggestions lmk!
It is entirely your fault that I now have Smith and Cross Jamaican Pot still rum and Kaniche Fiji rum plus Barsmith Grenadine. I am waiting for your Grenadine (order placed) but used what I had and it was still delicious.

Awesome video and great drink. You did miss a great opportunity to use Doctor Bird’s Jamaican rum. Doctor is in the name, and it’s got a great “Funk” to it. Definitely can only be used in small doses though 😂
You were right about the German pronounciation. More hilariously, German Funk translates to radio so it would be Dr. Radio. Not as cool. Lol.
Anders, quite the O face when you were fondling your new "equipment." Calm down there cowboy, that baby is quality, she will be around for years to come 🥰
Yes, the German word "Funk" is pronounced with a proper "u" as in "ruin". Which can be translated back into "radio". Weird, isn't it.
Ha. That would be a good bit. Just let the video keep going for another 10-20 min while you finish the drink.
You'll have to use that sometime
What are a few rums you would substitute for that Fijian rum? I’ve never tasted rum from there, but I do have rums from lots of other places. Ha ha. I love rum.
Actually cafard means "cockroach" in french. And we really say "avoir le cafard" like "to have the coackroach" to talk about depression!
Hey, no orgeat syrup in here, I could actually drink this! (nut allergy, *sob*)
This turned out really nice. Great, interesting drink. I just had Plantation Barbados rum in my cabinet and it worked well.
I have visited RLS's grave on top of Mt Vaea in Apia, Samoa. A 40min walk to get there and the view is breathtaking.
Wish your grenadine was available in Sweden, everything we have in stores here is literally raspberry syrup labeled as grenadine (it really does not contain pomegranate at all). But I’ve made my own using your recipe, so ’tis all good!
Damn it, you are costing me sooooo much $. Now I have to go buy rum to go with the great grenadine I just got from Portland Syrups. 😂
You should try the Brrmuda Hundred Gin cocktail - its by far my favorite sorta Tiki gin drink
I love your videos and your presentation. I have made many of you cocktail. Only thing is I live in the UK and can not always get many spirits hete. Life sucks some times
Cafard (J'ai le cafard) is French and still used today when you're feeling down in the dumps.
I need to check my rum supply, but if I have some good stuff I need to make this drink tomorrow night!
I have noticed a bottle of Centerba for quite some time in your background. Any chance you have some history and cocktails for that? I have only had it when my Italian neighbour digs it out as a shot during the holidays.
Anders I ordered your grenadine and it arrived today. The first drink I will make with it will be the "Dr. Funk".
Another great episode!
I do feel conflicted about the grenadine because I all ready make it homemade (per your instruction) and I can't imagine it getting any better.😅
last time I was drinking Rum and Absinthe cocktails I spent three hours going round in circles on the London underground...
Am I the only one who keeps thinking of arrested development? “Dr. Funke”
Will your grenadine go bad in the fridge after a month or two of being open? Any stabilizers in it for longevity?
If I make my own with Pom sugar and rose water it doesn’t last that long and generally isn’t worth making.
That's right. Stay to the end and get the doggo!
Mmmmmmmmmm, that is sooooooo good . Just made my version with what I have on hand at this time. My son offered me his Captain Morgan’s Private Stock, and it’s not bad 🍹
Any ideas for hibiscus gin drinks? Recently was given a bottle.
Can you please make another mocktail video? Something sweet
2:50 yeah, that's more like it
$400 is too rich for my blood, I am still trying to land a vintage machine on eBay but they are pricey too.
Hey Anders...how long does your grenadine last in the fridge after opening?
Will last at least 6 months in the fridge once opened!
Can't wait to try this over the holiday. Can you also share a recipe for the non rum, original version? Thanks for the inspiration.
The vowel is more like you would use in the English word “book” but other than that your pronunciation is spot on.
Nice to know that we can make Dr. Funk without Falernum (#2 version)
Speak a little faster and you'll get the German pronunciation right 👍
I has my mind liquify when told we could sub herbsaint or pastis for absinthe. What kind of hipster asshole has the latter two and not the former?
I used half a cup of crushed ice in my shaker but the drink only filled my lowball about half way.
Is this drink responsible for coining the term funky or the Doctor himself?
...so we need a drink mixer review episode? what was the brand you bought?
Alright...Mucho excito for the new Grenadine.
something else to use absinthe with outside of the corpse reviver #2! on the list to try!
did not have the Holmes Cay Fiji rum, so used Plantation 5 as its replacement. Damn tasty drink! thanks!
I wonder if the etymology of the phrase in a funk is due to that the Dr Funk was made to cure being in a state of depression or a funk.
In germany it is pronounced „foonk“. Cheers !
Would it still work if you only used dark Caribbean rum, or that and a light rum?
What are some substitutes for the Holmes Cay? I have a bunch of rums and am hoping to use one that I have!
Omg, make your own grenadine like an adult. Never buy grenadine.
Never thought to see Anders make a cocktail with a chocomilera😅
