Review:
Light rum, aromatic wine served 'up' with the marzipan and almond notes of apricot liqueur. I've used dry vermouth in place of the Kina Lillet in the 1930 recipe.
History:
Adapted from a recipe in Harry Craddock's 1930 The Savoy Cocktail Book.
THE CULROSS COCKTAIL.
Harry Craddock, 1930
The Juice of 1/4 Lemon.
1/3 Kina Lillet.
1/3 Bacardi Rum.
1/3 Apricot Brandy.
Shake well and strain into cocktail glass.
Perhaps eponymously named after the Scottish village of Culross, a former royal burgh.
