My interpretation:
1.5 oz Tinkerman’s Sweet Spice Gin
0.5 oz Grand Marnier
1 tsp clementine juice
Fill mixing-glass with fine ice, shake 20 seconds, strain into cocktail glass, garnish with freshly cracked filbert or hazelnut. — The hazelnut floats! Of course, if this drink is meant to be served unstrained (as many interpret the typically terse Straubian instruction frappez here, though in other recipes this demonstrably implies straining also), its floatability is irrelevant. This drink, named after the Broadway musical that opened in 1908 at the Knickerbocker theater, appears first in Straub 1913/1914, and from there is taken into JM 1916 without change.
