Comments

Very good - herbal. The botanicals really come to the forefront.

yarm commented on 9/20/2024:

What was the original recipe and name of this drink before juice was added? The Punch article doesn't make it clear.

In French Moderne, Audoux said it was still equal-parts without the lemon juice and it is implied that the name did not change with the addition of juice.
