Pineapple syrup replaced the raspberry as early as 1888. Both Harry Johnson's 1888 and 1900 New & Improved Bartender's Manuals list pineapple syrup instead of raspberry. Trying to organize my cocktail recipes and the many East India variations is proving difficult. Thank you once again for your research!
