History

Genever adds complexity to this Dutch take on the classic Holland House.

This genever-based interpretation of The Holland House was largely unknown until 2008, yet it has since been brought back from obscurity. The recipe is adapted from Stanley M. Jones' 1977 book, Jones' Complete Barguide. HOLLAND HOUSE Cocktail Glass SHAKE 1-3/4 oz Holland's gin 3/4 oz dry vermouth 1/2 oz lemon juice 1/4 oz maraschino liqueur Fresh pineapple
