Review:
Cherry red, spirit-forward and dangerously quaffable as a late-night tipple.
History:
Adapted from a 2019 recipe by Jason Clapham in Oxford, England. Jason named his cocktail after the "rather impressive heiress" in P.G. Wodehouse's A Pelican at Blandings. Jason's original recipe calls for Chairman's Reserve Rum.
