Old Pal | ||
The cocktail appeared in print in MacElhone (1927), by Harry MacElhone, the proprietor of Harry's New York Bar in Paris. The cocktail appears, not in the main list of recipes, but in the essay "Cocktails About Town" by Arthur Moss, which describes cocktails by men-about-town; this essay also includes the boulevardier. The Old Pal is credited to William "Sparrow" Robinson, a sports editor for The New York Herald in Paris, while the "old pal" refers to Moss, to whom it is dedicated. The cocktail is described as: I remember way back in 1878, on the 30th of February to be exact, when the Writer was discussing this subject with my old pal "Sparrow" Robertson and he said to yours truly, "get away with that stuff, my old pal, here's the drink I invented when I fired the pistol the first time at the old Powderhall foot races and you can't go wrong if you put a bet down on 1/3 Canadian Club, 1/3 Eyetalian [Italian] Vermouth, and 1/3 Campari," and then he told the Writer that he would dedicate this cocktail to me and call it, My Old Pal. |

Jasmine | ||
This drink was created by legendary barman Paul Harrington at the Townhouse in Emeryville, CA in 1990. It’s named after his friend Matt Jasmin who was sitting at the bar with Harrington one day and asked him to “Make me something you’ve never made before.” The inspiration for this drink was the Pegu Club, a cocktail Harrington was a bit obsessed with. The drink gained more notoriety when Harrington included it in his book “Cocktails” which is now out of print and goes for about 75 bucks on eBay if you’re thinking about getting a copy. When Harrington handed Jasmin the cocktail Jasmin took a sip and said: "Congratulations, you just invented Grapefruit Juice." Many years later Harrington would realize that he had been spelling the last name of his friend all wrong. |

Americano | ||
The cocktail was first served in creator Gaspare Campari's bar, Caffè Campari in Milan, in the 1860s, an American man, who was under the impression that Campari was a long drink, ordered it, hated it, and said it would be better served iced and fizzy. He ordered a Campari and soda which became too bitter; after a few iterations he and the esteemed bartender decided on Vermouth as the perfect blend. It is the direct descendant of the "Milano-Torino" which consisted of Campari, the bitter liqueur from Milan (Milano) and Punt e Mes, the vermouth from Turin (Torino) but lacked soda water. This drink was itself a descendant of the "Torino-Milano", a concoction consisting of equal parts Campari and Amaro Cora. |
