235. Metropolitan Cocktail (Southern Style)
My interpretation:
0.75 oz Casa Mariol Vermut Negra
1.25 oz Western Grace Brandy
1 dash Regan’s Orange Bitters
Fill mixing-glass with ice, stir, strain into cocktail glass, serve. — This putative variant of the last drink (No. 235) first appears in the laconic Straub 1913 without instructions (simply “serve”), but with the usual 2:1 ratio favored by Straub and which was typically altered to 3:2 by Grohusko. It is for all intents and purposes a Brandy Manhattan.
