Never liked dry gin much (except Sapphire) so I splurged on the Old Tom….wish Pa. state stores had more of a variety of this, it’s a whole different gin!

Thank you, Pierre, you are absolutely right. The 3 is so close to the 4 on my keyboard. Yeah, that’s the ticket…

Corrected in text: 1946. I’m grateful.

just to inform you that the “Stork Club Bar Book” was initially published in 1946.
All the best,
cheers

I’m with you there. One of the exercises for those of us who live in northern climes, far from orange growers, is taking extra care to know what’s really in season (and where it came from.) I noticed a few Cara Caras in my grocery last time I was there; I may have to make up another cycle of orange cocktails just to celebrate.

Thanks for the reminder.

That would include Valencias in the summer and Cara Caras in the winter for U.S. grown fruit. Otherwise as you note, it is easy to ruin a cocktail with too much o.j.

I think either Bombay Dry or Sapphire would be good in the Stork Club if you push up the sweetness a bit. Since you enjoy Cointreau, I’d recommend that you increase its portion a bit to balance the gin’s juniper profile.

I’m glad you enjoy these articles, thank you for commenting.

Love cointreau in anything…will definitely try. I love, not only your fab cocktail recipes, but how you incorporate the background/origins of the drink in your posts. Love your blog!
