110. Cushman Cocktail





My interpretation:
  1.5 oz Hawthorn’s London Dry Gin
  0.5 oz Noilly Prat Extra Dry Vermouth

Fill mixing-glass with ice; shake (about 15 seconds), strain, and serve. — A shaken 3:1 martini riff, this cocktail appears from the beginning in JM 1908, specifying Gordon gin and Chappaz vermouth. In JM 1910 (2nd ed.), with generalized ingredients, it inexplicably appears on p. 35 after Catawba Cooler (it looks like several unalphabetical recipes were wedged in here. Straub picks it up, too, presumably from JM’s 3rd edition, for his own 1913 manual.
