‘Lasky Cocktail’ - 4 of 22
-
Even though the Swedish Punsch cocktails from the Savoy were first seen back before 1930, as these were the most popular drinks at the time, it’s amazing to see how they closely match some of today’s modern cocktails. This drink is very reminiscent of the modern day Enzoni with the use of fresh grape juice. It’s a crazy drink, and because of the similarities in the spec with the Enzoni, I felt my adaptation just had to go down the Enzoni route. Hence the garnish you may be familiar with, some fresh grapes.
- 
KRONAN works so well with this drink, I actually recommend a more earthy gin such as Roku for this as it pairs well with the spiced rum blend at the heart of KRONAN. As and with everything in this day and age though, you can find out more about this blend on the KRONAN website.

LASKY COCKTAIL:

• 30ml KRONAN kronanpunsch 
• 30ml Gin
• 30ml Grape Juice
• Black Grapes

‘Welcome Stranger’ - 3 of 22
-
We all know I love these KRONAN Savoy serves, and I’m back at it today with a stunning drink. I’ll go as far as saying it’s in my top 5 of the entire list, simply because it is such an easy sipper with so much flavour packed in. KRONAN has this unique ability of being able to take centre stage in the stirred cocktails, but also being able to elevate an entire drink from the backseat, which happens here. A crowd pleaser for sure, and goes well with
a touch more Swedish Punsch history.
-
It wasn’t until 1733 that we first have record of the Swedish East India Company creating a potent ‘Rum Punsch’ using the Batavia Arrack and anything else they could find in Java, which would’ve likely been a way to mask the
harshness of the spirit as they did with their rum supplies... before they ran out.
-
This same sweetened, rum like punsch, is the basis for what we see in KRONAN today, only KRONAN is much more refined than what the sailors would have been subject to, and has a blend of Jamaican and Guyanan rum
there for good measure!

WELCOME STRANGER:

• 22.5ml KRONAN kronanpunsch 
• 22.5ml Cognac
• 22.5ml Gin
• 22.5ml Lemon Juice
• 22.5ml Orange Juice
• 22.5ml Grenadine

“Hesitation Cocktail” - 2 of 22
-
I’ve got another incredibly exciting KRONAN serve today. As Sweden wanted to expand their trade into East Asia, many sailing tradesmen started to quickly deplete the rum they’d travelled with for the journey, we all know that
feeling. They needed an alternative, and they found it in Batavia Arrack. Which is best to think of as an Indonesian take on rum, and not to be confused with Arrack from other countries, which can actually be an anise
type spirit.
-
Bartenders will have no doubt heard of Batavia Arrack, and this is where the Swedish Punsch we know today began its interesting journey into the stunning product on display. A product that works incredibly well as the main player in a cocktail, as shown by this inverted Old Fashioned adaptation of the 1930s cocktail.
-
When I saw this inverted OF spec, I was blown away in all honesty, I love seeing really out of the box specs, and if you use a high proof rye whiskey here, you’ll get a sweet yet refined cocktail, maybe even add a few dashes of
bitters or saline to further develop the flavours. Harry Craddock definitely stumbled upon a beauty of a drink on his travels researching for The Savoy Cocktail Book!
-
HESITATION COCKTAIL:

• 45ml KRONAN kronanpunsch 
• 15ml Rye Whiskey
• Cinnamon Stick Garnish

“Biffy Cocktail” - 1 of 22 
-
Today’s a special day, as it marks the start of a project that I’ve been working on for a very long time, alongside one of my favourite brands in the industry, kronanpunsch . Over the next 11 weeks I’ll be sharing a range of very special cocktails, and telling the story of KRONAN and Swedish Punsch as a whole.
-
To do this, I’ll be using the 22 cocktails, each featured in the classic 1930’s Savoy Cocktail Book using Swedish Punsch. This has really been a project packed with history and in the making for nearly 2 years. It’s fair to say that some of the drinks were designed for the palate of a different generation, but I’ve added my own personal touch to reinvent them, like in this Biffy cocktail
-
It was a classic sour drink, but I wanted a touch of finesse and a different body to the cocktail, hence the addition of the egg white, or in this case vegan alternative.
-
BIFFY COCKTAIL:

• 30ml KRONAN
• 60ml Gin
• 30ml Lemon Juice
• Egg White or Vegan Alternative
