History
Takes some effort to get through the fine strainer, but rewards with strawberries and cream and the faintest hint of alcohol. Wimbledon is all about strawberries & cream.
This cocktail was created in London during the 1990s, a period when any drink served in a V-shaped glass was referred to as a Martini.
