Hey tropicaldiver -
Bahama mama reminds me of red lobster for some reason. The restaurant that is... But over to my drink for the day would have to be the Hanky Panky. Good ole fashioned classic london cocktail.
Ada Coleman became the second person to hold the post of Head Bartender at the Savoy in 1898. She later created the cocktail for English comedy actor Charles Hawtrey, who asked her for "something with a bit of punch in it". The first time he tasted the results of her hours of experimentation, he replied, "By jove! That's the real hanky panky!" And the name stuck!
2 PARTS Beefeater London Dry Gin
2 PARTS Italian vermouth
2 DASH Fernet Branca
SHAKE All ingredients over ice
STRAIN Into a chilled cocktail glass
SQUEEZE A freshly cut orange peel on top
Video and instructions from the beefeater distiller are up for you guys too!
