History

A delicate, aromatic mix of berry and orchard fruit; not overly sweet.

This cocktail draws its inspiration from a recipe detailed in Harry Craddock's 1930 work, The Savoy Cocktail Book. The specific instructions for preparation are given as: "ROSE COCKTAIL. (FRENCH STYLE No. 3.) 1 Teaspoon Grenadine. ½ French Vermouth. ½ Kirsch. Shake well and strain into cocktail glass."
