History:

Adapted from a recipe first published in Mr. Boston De Luxe Official Bartender's Guide. I don't know the first date of publication, but this cocktail doesn't appear in my copy of the 1968, 42nd edition, but does feature in my 57th printing, January 1978 edition of Mr. Boston De Luxe Official Bartender's Guide.
