My interpretation:
0.75 oz Alessio Vermouth
1.25 oz Daron Calvados or Laird’s Bonded Apple Brandy
Shake (or stir) with ice, strain into cocktail glass, serve. — This recipe, in full the Marconi Wireless Cocktail (named after the precursor to radio), is first found in Straub 1913, from which it is taken into JM1916. I tried this recipe two ways, and the fragrant, sweet Laird’s works much better than the crisp Calvados. Stirring is also an improvement on shaking, though obviously not authentic.
