About
This drink is Stanley Clisby Arthur’s take on a cocktail his wife had in Mexico. In Arthur’s version, he subs out tequila for gin. In this recipe found in the book, Cure: New Orleans Drinks and How to Mix 'Em pineapple syrup is used instead of juice. This allows for better control of the acid, sweetness, and consistency.Cheers y’all!
