History

More pale gold than silver, this rye whiskey drink challenges the Gin Fizz.

Joseph Schwartz created this drink around 2001 at Milk & Honey in New York. The owner, Sasha Petraske, had brought in a bottle of Licor 43 and tasked Schwartz with inventing a new cocktail. This drink is also featured in Petraske's 2016 book, Regarding Cocktails.
