History:
The Checker A11 Marathon Taxi manufactured 1959–82 by Checker Motors is the archetypal American yellow cab, as iconic as a London black taxi.
The Yellow Cab cocktail, promoted by Engine Gin, pays homage to Marathon Taxi driven by Robert De Niro in the movie directed by Martin Scorsese, Taxi Driver. Engine Gin describe this cocktails as "a mash-up between a classic Margarita and Julio Bermejo's modern classic Tommy's Margarita."
Review:
Sage-led gin with assertive and refreshing zesty citrus balanced with honeyed caramel agave syrup.
