Flamingo Cocktail


I fixed my 182nd different cocktail tonight.  I started this journey last year (7/29/2010) after finding a Boston's Bartender Guide that we had somehow acquired around 1985 or so.

The drink of the day was a 'Flamingo Cocktail' (on page 81 of the Bartender's Guide). It was a really good cocktail, tasty with all the flavors melding nicely. This one is a favorite.

Juice of 1/2 lime
1/2 oz Apricot Brandy (LeRoux)
1 1/2 oz Gin (Booth's)
1 teaspoon Grenadine

Shake with ice and strain into cocktail glass. I garnished with an orange slice.

Cheers!
