325. Sir Walter Cocktail
My interpretation:
1 oz Bacardì silver (Appleton Estate)
1 oz Christian Brothers Sacred Bond (Copper & Kings Brandy)
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp Pratt Standard grenadine (Jack Rudy grenadine)
1 tsp Pierre Ferrand dry curaçao
Shake 30 seconds with ice, strain into cocktail glass, serve. — I tried this twice, once with white rum, once with Jamaican. Both were good, as may be expected from sweet-leaning a dual-liquor proto-tiki drink with a tart tinge. The peculiar wording betrays the quasi-punch recipe as a direct borrowing from McElhone’s Barflies & Cocktails (1927). It is also found in the Savoy Cocktail Book (1933) with a similar recipe.
