History

The Tulane first appears in R. de Fleury's 1934 book 1700 Cocktails for the Man Behind the Bar with a barspoon of "Strawberry Brandy" to equal parts vermouth and gin. By 1951, the Tulane morphed into equal parts in Ted Saucier's book Bottoms Up, where the recipe is credited to The Roosevelt in New Orleans.

Review

Subtly fruity and more properly Martini-like than a contemporary Strawberry Martini.

It’s pleasant but not a full on fruity party drink and neither a dry martini (obviously). Not sure why I would make it again…

Really elegant and beautifully balanced. Hard to improve on such a lovely, subtle drink but we had a go by adding just two drops of Bob's Lavender Bitters. Worked nicely for us.
