Fine and Dandy Cocktail

This 'Fine and Dandy Cocktail' was a good one.  I mixed it with two different brands of Gin (Hayman's Old Tom and Booth's.  Both were good although Olga liked the Old Tom better. It seemed to have a somewhat milder taste, which was quite pleasant.

The recipe (page 80 of the Mr. Boston's Bartender's Guide:


Juice of 1/4 lemon
1/2 oz Triple Sec (DeKuyper)
1 1/2 oz Gin (Booth's and Hayman's Old Tom)
1 dash Bitters

Shake with ice and strain into cocktail glass.
Serve with a cherry (I also added an orange slice).

Cheers!
