History:

There are numerous cocktails that go by the name Millionaire but this cocktail (based on rye whiskey with curaçao, raspberry syrup/grenadine and egg white, usually with orange bitters &/or absinthe &/or lemon juice) first appears in Jacques Straub's 1914 Manual of Mixed Drinks.

Review:

Delicately sweet with whiskey-laced, zesty citrus, rich berry fruit and a hint of aniseed, is smoothed and rounded by egg white.

Your choice of grenadine or raspberry syrup (my preference) will significantly impact the flavour and colour of your Millionaire.
