Science Of Drink

My wife ask me to prepare some interesting sour cocktail with lemon juice. We looking for recipe on my favorite CocktailDB and found this interesting recipe. The composition of gin and calvados seems so good (like one of my favorite Golden Dream).

Margaret Rose

30 ml gin
30 ml calvados
15 ml Cointreau
15 ml fresh lemon juice
1 dash grenadine
Shake. Cocktail glass.

Admirable!

This amazing cocktail was winner of ICC 1930 (London).
Nine year later Walter Madigan prepare it without calvados and
won ICC 1939.
I think now it is pure classics, symbol of magnificence of cocktail…
It has complicated taste with undertones of fruits (rape apples, dried fruits, grape,
apricots) and fabulous appearance with little summer sun in your glass.

Interesting relative post from Paul Clarke.
