166. Hawaiian Cocktail

My interpretation:
  2 oz Aviation American Gin
  3 dashes Pierre Ferrand Dry Curaçao
  0.5 oz fresh orange juice

Shake 30 seconds with ice, strain into cocktail glass, serve. — This recipe, like the previous one, appears only in JM1933 and seems to be borrowed from the Savoy Cocktail Book (1930), which specifies 4:2:1 ratio of gin, juice, and curacao. A lower portion of juice and the addition of curaçao provides a minimal distinction from the Harvester. One sometimes sees a Hawaiian Cocktail today made with a little pineapple juice rather than orange. This Blossom-style drink should not be confused with the Blue Hawaiian, which features rum and coconut along with pineapple.
