Instructions

Shake, strain, cocktail glass

Notes

These specs are based on "parts" rather than ounces, and probably only a total of a 2 oz. pour. I upped it to modern standards of a 3 oz total pour from original published recipe proportions. I personally reduced the orange juice from 1 to 3/4, and it also works at 1/2. Also, grenadine varies, my batch was from pomegranate molasses and worked perfect. Absinthe also works well with a heavy dash or two, and even all the way up to 1/4 oz. if you so desire.

History

This is widely cited from 1930 Savoy, but it actually appears in the 1923 Harry of Ciro's ABC of mixing cocktails.
