History
A personal favourite for those who also love Chartreuse; experimentation is encouraged.
This recipe comes from Del Pedro at Alexander's in New York City. LeNell Smothers shared it with the author in 1997. Del Pedro once remarked, "I used to call this a 'Gatsby cooler' at one time, because there seems something kinda evilly 'Hampton-ish' about this drink, but I also called it 'He's At Home' which was the name given to porcelain dildos that Nantucket ship's captain's wives kept stashed in the flue of their fireplaces for the lonely winter nights when the old dog was chasing whales."
