79. Chinese Cocktail
My interpretation:
1.5 oz Jack Rudy grenadine
1.5 oz Myers’s Rum
2 dashes Angostura bitters
4 dashes Luxardo maraschino
4 dashes Pierre Ferrand Dry Curaçao
Shake well (20 seconds) with broken ice, strain into cocktail glass. — The Chinese Cocktail was added to the JM 1933 without precedent in previous editions of the Manual. The proportions on such drinks with multiple dashes of this and that are best kept when we take into account that the original jigger is 2 ounces. Thus in increasing the drink volume for modern taste to about 3 ounces total, the bitters and minor additions may also need adjustment.
