156. Green Room Cocktail


My interpretation:
  1.5 oz Dolin Dry
  0.5 oz Western Grace Brandy
  2 dashes Pierre Ferrand Dry Curaçao

Shake well (30 seconds) with ice, strain into cocktail glass, serve. — This shim or lighter drink, named for the musician’s or actor’s private lounge behind a stage, resembles a Cup, being based on aperitif wine braced by a portion of brandy and flavored with curaçao, only without the ice. It seems to have been borrowed for JM 1933 from the Savoy Cocktail Book (1930) where it is called “a great favourite with mummers.”
