St Patick's Day Cocktail

A couple of days late, but we chose a 'St. Patrick's Day' cocktail for Monday. The recipe is on page no.153 of the Bartender's Guide (1985 edition).

The recipe:

3/4 oz Green Créme de Menthe(LeRoux)
3/4 oz Chartreuse (Green)
3/4 oz Irish Whisky (Jameson's)
1 dash Bitters

Stir with ice and strain into cocktail glass. I garnished with a slice of orange.

The drink was potable but not one of our favorites. As a matter of fact, it was a lot like mouthwash (actually it was much better than that)!

Slainte!
