Oops, I now see you were quoting Boothby, so his error not yours. Sorry. Cheers!

It’s Pittsburgh, PA (with an “h” at the end). Oh!—The cocktail is quite nice but perhaps a little soft to be named after a rough-and-tumble borough of NYC like the Bronx ;-)

I used Salers which definitely brought this cocktail down to earth.

I must be missing something in the specification of this cocktail. The ingredients list calls for 8 mint leaves while the instructions call for a garnish involving a single mint leaf. Are the other 7 mint leaves part of the "other ingredients" specified in step 4? Also, step 2 says to prepare a garnish of "3 rose water, aromatic bitters and mint leaf." What does "3 rose water" mean? Three drops? Are the 3 ingredients specified in step 2 the same 3 ingredients referenced in step 6? Sorry for being obtuse.
