Hi Simon. The link at the end of the third para at the top - Mayfair martini, takes you to the Mayflower martini, the same as in the second para.

Well, it’s May Day, and I think it’s lots of fun to make “The Communist” especially if you have some retro glassware. Don’t worry, the drink will not turn you pink.
1.00 ounce gin
1.00 ounce orange juice
0.50 ounce cherry brandy (Cherry Heering)
0.75 ounce fresh lemon juice

Great suggestion, Susie. I've added a link to The Communist above.

No Labor Day cocktail?
It’s also Muguet (Lily of the Valley ?) Day in France! There should be a cocktail for that!
Salutations :)

In Mexico its Labor day. This day ( a long time ago?) people fought for better working conditions(8 hour shifts, 48hours per week, insurance, etc) So today nobody does anything its 1 of the 5 holidays in mexico when no one is supposed to work. Salud?
