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.".
