The forefather to the modern Dry Martini, the Marguerite deserves its own place in drinks history. This is the first recorded recipe of a Dry Martini, taken directly from Stuart’s Fancy Drinks And How To Mix Them, 1904. May not be considered so fancy by modern standards, but there’s no arguing with the taste

The two earliest references to a Gibson both called for Plymouth Gin, now with bars pickling their own onions, tomatoes, mushrooms and the like…the Gibson is back!
