CELEBRITIES' DRINKS
introduce the yolk of a raw egg with a spoon without
disturbing the Maraschino; next carefully surround the
egg with vanilla cordial, and lastly pour a tablespoonful
of fine old brandy on top. Be careful not to mix the in–
gredients. This requires a steady hand, but the drink is
heavenly."
MISS VIVIENNE SEGAL, famous star of light opera.
" This exquisite mixture has always been my favorite.
Three quarters of a cordial glass full of Benedictine.
The balance rich sweet cream. I believe it is known as
' Creme Benedictine.' "
JOHN CLARKE, Ziegfeld star.
" Side Car Punch, as it is made in London is hard to
forget. For a party of ten, slice four oranges and a juicy
pineapple into a punch bowl. Pour a bottle of fine Cognac
brandy over them and let it steep for a few hours; then
pour in three bottles of iced Champagne and serve im–
mediately. A marvelous concoction! "
YVONNE D'ARLE, musical comedienne.
" I still prefer the old, reliable Clover Club Cocktail.
They are mixing it now even at Deauville.
In
a shaker
place a pony of dry gin, juice of half a lime, white of
a raw egg, and a spoonful of Grenadine. Fill with ice,
shake and strain into a cocktail glass. When serving it
should be garnished with a sprig of fresh mint."
