The ULTIMATE Festive Drink - Alexander cocktail
When the name Alexander, a few things may come to your mind. Alexander the Great, Alexander Hamilton... But there's also Alexander the Drink! This is a classic cocktail that dates back to the early 1900s. Before the Brandy version, there also was the Gin version. Today we're going to make both versions and compare them, side by side.
Hard to confirm the origins of this drink, because there are a couple compelling stories. But the most plausible one was found by a historian, in the Philadelphia Inquirer from a publication on October 3rd, 1915. It states that a Head bartender “went as far as to create an Alexander cocktail.” This was in honor of Philadelphia pitcher Grover Cleveland Alexander for the 1915 World Series Philly vs Boston. Boston won that series.
Many people however link the cocktail to Troy Alexander. A bartender at a New York pre-Prohibition lobster restaurant called Rector’s. It is said that Mr. Troy created this cocktail for a dinner celebrating a successful advertising campaign. The ad campaign was Phoebe Snow and it ran for almost 70 years. She became one of the most recognized advertising mascots.
But Alexander was a favorite during the Prohibition era as the cream and nutmeg garnish helped disguise the rough taste of Homemade “Bathtub Gin”.
