History:
My interpretation of the 1930s signature cocktail from New York City's Hotel Martinique.
Review:
The Hotel Martinique's original signature cocktail was based on Jamaican rum but, given the name, Martinique agricole rum seemed more appropriate. Other than this swap I've respected the line-up of ingredients and arrived at proportions by trial and error.
