The Clover Club
A 1908 pre-Prohibition classic — Michter’s Rye, fresh raspberry syrup, lemon, and egg white foam. Pink, silky, and worth rediscovering.
The Preakness Cocktail
A 1930 Savoy Cocktail Book classic — Rittenhouse Rye, sweet vermouth, and Benedictine, stirred and served up. A Manhattan variation worth rediscovering.
The Rattlesnake
A Prohibition-era sour from the 1930 Savoy Cocktail Book — Old Forester 100, absinthe, egg white, and lemon. Unusual combination. Excellent result.
The Penicillin
Honey-ginger syrup, fresh lemon, and Blanton’s Single Barrel with a smoky float. Possibly the best cocktail invented in the last 25 years.
