I found this recipe on tuxedono2.com.
gin, dry vermouth, apricot brandy, Cointreau
This drink appears in The Savoy Cocktail Book, published 1930. Another book, Barflies and Cocktails (published in 1927), attributes its creation to “Leon, bartender, Claridge’s Hotel, Champs Elysees, Paris”.
This is my second cocktail using apricot brandy. (I’m actually using peach brandy – I couldn’t find apricot brandy at any store that offers delivery or curbside pickup.) 🍑 The first time I used it was for a Charlie Chaplin. Both delicious cocktails.
My idea for a garnish turned out pretty, but makes it almost impossible to get a sip. Every time I tipped the glass back, I just got a mouthful of orange peel.🍊 So I’m now enjoying it without a garnish.
