225. Marqueray Cocktail

My interpretation:
  2 oz Bluecoat American Dry Gin
  1 egg white
  2 dashes Jack Rudy Grenadine (about 1 tsp)
  1 dash St. George Absinthe Verte
  1/2 T fresh lime juice

Shake all ingredients well with cracked ice, about 30 seconds, strain into cocktail glass, serve. — Borrowed from Straub 1913 for JM 1916, this Gin Sour recipe, with lime for the sour and grenadine for the sweet, distinguishes itself from similar recipes (like the Sunshine Cocktail) by the added enhancement of absinthe, which for a modern twist could be dashed or sprayed on top before serving instead of shaking in. Another example is found here.
