Variations
This is a relic of the old American Prohibition era and was originally made with "bathtub gin" of very dubious quality.
This is a robust cocktail; you can serve it before a meal.
You can find the same ingredients (but doses are different) in another cocktail: Knickerbocker.
Be careful! There is another cocktail with the same name but most of the ingredients are different: Knickerbocker Special
