History:
The first known reference to the Pink Lady is in Jacques Straub's 1913 Manual of Mixed Drinks.
Review:
A generous measure of gin and high-proof applejack provide spirituous spice which, along with lemon juice sourness, ensures that this cocktail is neither sweet nor weak. Indeed, this is a very tasty sour. So tasty, that to spare this Lady's blushes, our friend Ted "Dr Cocktail" Haigh would prefer you refer to it as "The Secret Cocktail".
