History:

Adapted from a recipe created in 2022 by J. E. Clapham of Clapham Cocktails, who says, "This vintage-style drink is an enhancement of the rather basic Starboard Light from the Café Royal Cocktail Book. A small amount of Giffard's Crème de Pêche de Vigne serves to bridge the lemon and mint flavours, and lends the drink a hint of elegance.

Review:

Best enjoyed as an after-dinner cleanser with gin-laced mint, zesty lemon and delicate peach.
