ABOUT
This classic dates back to the early 1900s, appearing in Jacques Straub’s 1914 book, “Drinks.” As with many classics, they evolve. These specs are mainly based off of Simon Difford’s recipe. This version calls for a Regal Stir, which means you stir the peel with all ingredients, incorporating the oils. A favorite of mine. Cheers y’all!
