94. Club Cocktail

My interpretation:
  1.5 oz Castle & Key London Dry Gin
  0.5 oz Yzaguirre Rojo
  1 dash Chartreuse (Green)

Shake well with ice, strain into cocktail glass, serve. — This cocktail, new to the JM 1933, is found in The Savoy Cocktail book with yellow chartreuse. It is unknown whether Jack’s Manual, borrowing perhaps from Savoy, or else local tradition, omitted this by accident or purposefully changed it. With Green, it is similar to a Bijou with altered proportions. The lighter, sweeter quality of the Yellow tends to disappear this ratio.
