History

Jason E. Clapham offered this vintage cocktail, which he aptly describes as "a Jamaican daiquiri with Christmas spices."

The 1935 publication, *Old Waldorf Astoria Bar Book* by Albert Stevens Crockett, contains the recipe for the Winter Cocktail. "WINTER Two-thirds glass Jamaica Rum Juice of one Lime or Lemon Sugar to taste Teaspoon of Ginger Brandy and Pimento Liqueur Two dashes Angostura Bitters"
