History

A fruity, full-flavoured, veritable basket of produce.

This recipe originates from a 1935 menu at Bar Florida, later known as Floridita, in Havana, Cuba. The menu's mention of "Sherry Brandy" is believed to be an error for cherry brandy. The components are: ½ Gordon's Sloe Gin, ½ Calvados, 1 Teaspoon Sherry Brandy, 1 Teaspoon Lemon juice, and Cracked Ice. It is to be shaken well and strained into a cocktail glass.
