Dec. 20, 1934: In case you doubted me (but you wouldn’t, would you?), here’s a recipe for the Bronx Cocktail, from the Amsterdam Evening Recorder, courtesy of FultonHistory.com.

In case you plan to mix one up, a Bronx Cocktail is one part Italian vermouth, three parts brandy and a dash of orange bitters. Shake well!

Notice that there are also three variations of the Manhattan.

    So are we going to get a recipe for the Queens cocktail or the Staten Island cocktail (which I’m picturing as a Pabst Blue Ribbon with a shot of Patrón in it?)
