Tangy gin-laced lemon sourness with aromatic maraschino - too many of these and you really will be flying

Hello Simon! I noticed that it is so close to SKIPPER by Albert Crockett. Maybe you can add SKIPPER to the Guide? Page 162 of Old Waldorf Bar Days: two thirds gin, one fourth Maraschino, dash of orange juice, dash of lemon juice. Shake!

Frappe cocktails are shaken and then strained over crushed ice.

And what is the meaning of "frappe" in the book? I thoght it was something like "shake", but maybe it means to serve with crushed ice?

Thanks, Egor. I'll be sure to add the Skipper, which is served frappé.
