Preparations and Variations: The Mezcal one chooses can make a big difference. Simó recommends Del Maguey’s Chichicapa, though a quality non-village designated Mezcal like Sombra, or Del Maquey’s Vida will certainly deliver.

95
Q

Presbyterian

A

2 oz. Scotch Whisky
Ginger Ale
Preparation: Pour Scotch over ice and fill with equal parts ginger ale and soda water.

Presentation: Highball Glass

History: Many believe this cocktail to have been originally made with French Brandy. However, after Phylloxera destroyed the European vineyard Cognac disappeared from bars as well. When Scotch was used as a supplement, the official Scottish denomination of Christianity became the name of this drink too.

Preparations and Variations: Today, many guests will ‘call’ their spirit or brand of choice for a Presbyterian though it is more common to order a ‘Jack and Ginger’ not a Jack Daniels Presbyterian.

The Presbyterian is thought by some to distinguish itself from a plain spirit and ginger ale mixture by cutting the ginger beer with soda water.

2 oz. Rye Whiskey
1/2 oz. Lemon Juice
1/2 oz. Orange Juice
1/4 oz. Grenadine
Preparation: Shake and strain into an ice-filled glass.

Presentation: Old Fashioned Glass, Cherry

History: This cocktail was first created in 1898 at the Locke-Ober restaurant in Boston Massachusetts. The cocktail was named to celebrate the part of town that notably gave Martin Lomasney a political victory that propelled his 50-year career in Massachusetts politics. In 1915 the Boston based Santa Clara Company registered the cocktail as its trademark. However, this was later debunked by the Boston Globe during prohibition, proving its origin to be the Locke-Ober Restaurant.
