How is this not a Bijou variation?

It's not a Bijou variation for the simple reason that it preceded the Bijou, by quite a margin. And anyway, they're all Martinis if you care to climb down through the extensive and leafy branches of the family tree.

Thanks for the info. I know both of them, but I didn't know that the Sand Martin was the older one. Do you know were it was first published?

Thanks for pointing out. I've added links to the three closest Bijou recipes.
