I'm interested to know where the name of this cocktail derives from.
Is it from the Mexican acrobat/actor Cantinflas who is probably most famous in the English-speaking world for his appearance as Passepartout opposite David Niven in Around The World In 80 Days (1956 - jeeps, it's older than I am!)?
Which could lead on to the other cocktail, Cantinflas Moustache...although in the closing credits Niven was represented as a clockface, Cantinflas as a Penny Farthing and, I think, Robert Newton's Detective Inspector Fix by a moustache...
