About
This is a Prohibition-era cocktail created by war correspondent and journalist Tommy Millard. The name refers to the distance one must travel to be in international waters; or, in Prohibition-era times, how far one would have to travel offshore to drink alcohol. This is a classic worth revisiting.Cheers y’all!
