37. Bishop Potter Cocktail


My interpretation:
  1.5 oz St. George Botanivore
  0.75 oz Martini & Rossi Extra Dry
  0.75 oz Martini & Rossi Rosso
  2 dashes Fee Brothers Orange Bitters
  2 dashes Calisaya bitters mixture (homemade)

Stir well (20 seconds) with broken ice, strain, serve. — What the modern person might today call a “perfect” martini with some extra bitters. A variant of this recipe is doubtless represented by the “Bishop Poker” of the Waldorf-Astoria Bar Book (1935) which divides the liquors in thirds and for its bitters uses only one dash of Amer Picon.
