1946 The Stock Club Bar Book by Lucius Beebe
James (;leason suggests a nonesuch known as a "Help Wanted Cocktail" comprising equal parts bourbon whisky and apricot brandy, shaken up with a few drops of lemon juice added and adds that in bed is a good place to try it if one has more than three. Judy Canova, if pressed, will tell you that she likes:
Pink Goody:
1 oz. gin 1 oz. golden bacardi 1 oz. lime juice Dash of maraschino or grenadine
, Serve with crushed ice in a tall highball glass with a generous splash of soda and a stick of pineapple for garnish. After the first drink, she submits, the fruit decoratio·n may be eliminated as unessential.
Andrea King, who confesses that, to date, she has only dared use the formula in half portions and then on an isolated atoll in the South Pacific, recommends:
Devil's Tail:
3 oz. 151 proof Rum 3 oz. vodka
1 oz. Jime juice 2 oz. grenadine
To obtain the best results, says Miss King, these should be frapped in a Waring mixer and served with a ff.oat of apricot brandy on top.
