Palmyra

3 oz Vodka, Rain
3⁄4 oz Mint syrup
3⁄4 oz Lime juice
1 spg Mint
1 wdg Lime
Instructions

Shake, strain, up, garnish with a lime wedge rested on a pair of mint leaves such that it looks like a bird in flight.

Notes

Named for a large leaf used to fan oneself, the Palmyra is, according to Fred Yarm, a "Boston classic" from the early days of the cocktail renaissance. Its huge pour of booze and vodka base speak to an earlier era, but according to Yarm the drink still holds up.

bza commented on 9/04/2013:

Rain should really be called for in this. I know it doesn't make a huge difference, but as a Bostonian it's a key point. Plus, this drink is how No.9 gets a bunch of the BT antique collection every year - they threaten to start using a different vodka, and they make so many of these that the distributor relents...


Didn't know that about No.9 and BT, awesome. Done.


Fallen Angel (Savoy)

2 oz Gin
1⁄2 oz Lime juice
1 spg Mint (as garnish)
Instructions

Shake, strain, up, mint garnish.

Notes

This is Imbibe Magazine's version of a recipe whose earliest source, as far as I know, is the Savoy. The original calls, confusingly, for the juice of either one lemon or one half lime, which would seem to produce two very different drinks. Imbibe goes with half of a modern lime and adds a mint sprig garnish. Erik Ellestad made it with the juice of a whole lemon and found it, against expectations, balanced.
