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.
Queen Elizabeth has a cocktail every day before dinner. Her favorite is 2 parts Dubonnet, 1 part gin, squeeze of lime, on the rocks. Its the Dubonnet cocktail with proportions reversed. PS I love them too!

As yet, nobody has favored us with a “Staten Island Cocktail.” Thoughts?
