1 oz Bluecoat Gin
1 oz Noilly Prat Extra Dry
Shake with ice, strain into cocktail glass, serve. — This martini-riff, a shaken dry Fifty-Fifty Martini, first appears in Straub 1913 and is picked up from thence by JM 1916 without change. The recipe originally specified Dry Gin, and JM 1916 calls for Gordon’s. It is included in the Waldorf-Astoria Bar Book (1935) with the same recipe, and may have thus been picked up by Straub directly from the W-A bar manual before the Bar Book was published.
