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!

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?

That reminds me the way we drink sambuca in Moscow. No water and sugar; just flame the sambuca, let it burn a little (you need to twist cognac glass). Then pour burning sambuca in an old-fashioned glass and drink immediately! In addition you can inhale sambuca vapor from the cognac glass.
