SIDE CAR COCKTAIL
This cocktail, to our knowledg_e, is only eight or
ten years old (according to Bob in Harry's ·New
York Bar) but it has done more to boost Paris to
Americans than any other drink. A few drops of
this gentle French nitro-glycerine, and even the
Eiffel Tower bends to acknowledge your visit

SIDNEY COCKTAIL
Sent to us by the
D~rector
of the Grand Hotel
Central of The Hague, Holland. Be sparing with
that Chartreuse, and don't say you weren't warned!
In Holland some people take to drinking this one
out of a wooden shoe. Wooden shoe like it?
