STILL HARPING ON THE DRINK 165
Apple Jack Sour
is but seldom called for in this tight little island.
In America it is made in a large tumbler, with
half a tablespoonful of sugar, the juice of half a
lemon, a squirt of Seltzer water from a syphon, and
a wine-glassful of old cider brandy. Nearly fill the
glass with crushed ice, and ornament with any fruit
in season.
Bourbon Sour.
Small tumbler, one teaspoonful of sugar, the
juice and rind of a quarter of a lemon, one wine-
glassful of Bourbon whisky.
Add crushed ice,
shake well, and strain.
Brandy Sour
is exactly the same potion, with the substitution
of brandy for Bourbon whisky. And
Whisky Sour
is the same, made with whisky.
At the Bengal Club, Calcutta, the
Gin Sour
has attained to renown.
A large tumbler is used, the juice of six limes is
squeezed therein, care being taken to remove the
pips. A wine-glassful of Old Tom is added, then
a liqueur-glassful of raspberry syrup, three quarters
of a liqueur-glassful of orange bitters, a wine-glassful
of water, and three drops of Angostura bitters.
Nearly fill the tumbler with crushed ice, and shake.
