1903 The Flowing Bowl by Edward Spencer

THE FLOWING BOWL

8z

Collins—the last named a seductive compound of gin, limes, Cura^oa, and soda-water—have been almost knocked out by John Barleycorn and Jean Pomme-de-terre. Until the visit of H.R.H. the Prince of Wales, brandy was almost the sole potation of the heroes who helped to hold the big wonderland, the old-fashioned brandi- pani gradually giving place to the brandy diluted with Belati pant, or "Europe water." Thirty years ago a " peg" meant a brandy-and-soda ; but whisky has now usurped the proud position once occupied by the products of John Exshaw, Justerini and Brooks, and others.
