History:
In both Harry Craddock's 1930 The Savoy Cocktail Book and R. de Fleury's 1934 book 1700 Cocktails for the Man Behind the Bar, The Frank Sullivan, Hoop La! and Odd McIntyre are different names for the same recipe. However, I've given each of these cocktails its own recipe; this one borrowed from Michael and Zara Madrusan's 2025 The Madrusan Cocktail Companion.
