247. North Pole Cocktail
My Interpretation:
1.5 oz Noilly Prat Dry Vermouth
0.5 oz “fresh” (canned) pineapple juice
Dip dampened rim of glass a couple times in shallow dish of powdered sugar to form thick, icicle-like “frost.” Shake ingredients with cracked ice, strain into glass carefully so as not to damage frosting; serve. — This novel shim (weak drink) recipe with its thematic gimmickry first appears in JM1912. Straub 1913 has a drink sharing little besides the name and a faint concept of snowy climes; it is an egg-white Gin sour with maraschino and topped with whipped cream. Jack’s is admittedly not memorable and both drink swould eventually yield their name to a variety of cocoa or peppermint laced eggnogs.
