1908 The Hoffman House Bartender's Guide by Charles S Mahoney

"Arf and Arf" or Black and Tan. Use large ale glass.

This is a common English drink and means half porter and half ale, but in this country we use half old ale and half new. It is always best to ask the customer how he de sires it.

Absinthe Cocktail.

Use large bar glass.

Fill with ice. About three dashes gum syrup. One dash Boker's Bitters. Dash Anisette. One-quarter wine-glass water. Three-quarter wine-glass absinthe.

Shake until almost frozen and then strain in cocktail glass, and serve after squeezing a lemon peel on top.

Apple Jack Cocktail.

Use large bar glass. One-half full of shaved ice. Two dashes gum syrup. Two dashes bitters. One dash Curacoa. One wine-glass apple jack.

Stir with spoon, and after straining into cocktail glass, add cherry or olive, and squeeze lemon peel on top.
