History

This short, sharp cocktail is a Banana & Fino Sherry Gin Sour. Subtle fino and banana notes mean it is not obviously banana, though the name provides a clue.

This cocktail was adapted from a recipe created in August 2018 by Cameron Attfield at Dandelyan in London, England. It is a variation on the popular London Calling cocktail, which was created by Chris Jepson in 2002.
