M Y NEW COCKTAI L BOOK

WHITE LADY

I/2 Dry Gin

1/4 Cointreau

I/4 Lime juice

From Mr. W. C. Powers: "The only new cocktail in

London is one invented by a man at Quaglinos, which is

called the 'White Lady.' You make this with two parts

Gin, one part Cointreau (if you can get hold of any) and

one part Lime juice. You can jockey the Lime juice and

Cointreau a little, depending upon whether you like it

sweet or sharp, butthe result is a very nice, clean-looking

drink and seems to be the most popular now over here.

You will realize that the White Lady is a sister of the

Side-car, Gin being substituted for the Brandy in the

Side-car. Most of us think that Brandy is a mistake in a

cocktail, and all the Side-car enthusiasts who have tried

the White Lady have transferred their allegiance to the

new sister."
