The origin of Champagne cocktails is unclear, but some believe they first splashed on the scene in 1861, when England went into mourning for Prince Albert. According to historians, a bartender at ’s Brook’s Club decided that Champagne also should mourn, and paired it with Guinness stout to make a Black Velvet.

The term ‘Cocktail’ first appeared in print over 200 years ago and at that time the description was less generic than it is today. Now we group nearly every mixed drink under the umbrella of ‘cocktails’, but if you wandered into a in the mid 1800s and asked for a cocktail you would be given only one choice:

‘For the recipe book let the following be copied... Cocktail is composed of water, with the addition of rum, gin or , as one chooses, a third of the spirit to two thirds of the water, add bitters and enrich with sugar and nutmeg’ J.E. , Transatlantic Sketches, London 1833.

Here at Blythswood Square Hotel we have developed our cocktail list over the years and offer an eclectic mix of the classic and contemporary - enjoy!

6 COCKTAILS

Roxanne £9 The Police lead singer Sting wrote the song ‘Roxanne’ after being inspired by the individuals he saw near the band’s seedy hotel in Paris while the band were lodged there in October 1977. The red lights in windows of our hotel give a cheeky nod to the similar history of Blythswood Square opposite, where ‘ladies of the night’ used to ply their trade. Gin, Edinburgh Gin’s Raspberry Liqueur, lemon juice, lemonade

Gin Basil Fix £9.50 This is a great pre-dinner cocktail that’s both zesty and fresh and is perfect for those who don’t like bitter drinks. Thai basil leans more towards than its European cousin and so cosies up with the notes from the gin and pear liqueur. Hendrick’s Gin, Crème de Poire, lemon juice, sugar, Thai basil

Rocket to Plantino £10 provides much needed get up and go when you are feeling the effects of the night before. This cocktail embraces that effect wholeheartedly, with the peppery green bite of fresh rocket and a mustardy kick to balance out the drink. Tapatio Blanco, Green Chartreuse, pink grapefruit, lime, sugar, fresh rocket

Self Starter £10 This is an elegant drink that plays well in all seasons. It’s delicate and light enough despite the lack of citrus for the summer, yet complex enough to be enjoyed in the winter, where the lack of citrus helps. Daffy’s Gin, Blanc, Crème de Apricot, lemon juice,

Tropical Iced £11.50 A tropical take on the (in)famous which has origins going back to the early 1970s in Babylon, New York. The fact that the cocktail looks like ordinary non alcoholic iced tea has led to theories that it might have originally been created during the prohibition era to avoid suspicion. Ketel One, Tanqueray Gin, Superior, , Kwai Feh Lychee Liqueur, elderflower, lemon, Diet 7 COCKTAILS

Papa Doble £9 Created for Ernest Hemingway by the legendary Constantino Ribalaigua Vert of the El Floridita in Havana, Cuba, after he walked in to use the facilities. He had an aversion of sugar due to a rare disease. We add sugar to this cocktail to balance the drink, but if you would prefer the original then just ask and we’ll be happy to oblige. Bacardi Superior, fresh lime, pink grapefruit, Maraschino, sugar

Side Car £11 A close relation to a , the Side Car was first created around the end of World War One and is directly named for the motorcycle attachment. This is a complex but balanced - if you would prefer a sweeter option then please do ask for a full or half sugar rim. Hennessy Fine de Cognac, , lemon, sugar

Chamomile Daisy £9 The fine balance of rum, elderflower and chamomile make for a perfect lazy day cocktail. Chamomile possesses anti anxiety properties and is also known to help with stress and insomnia. Elderflower is fresh and fragrant and brings some sweetness to the drink, and rum helps with all the above! Bacardi Superior, Fiorentine, lemon juice, chamomile syrup

Eiffel Daisy £9.50 Named after Gustave Eiffel, designer of the famous Parisian tower and part of the distillery in Thuir, , where the fortified is made, this drink follows the DNA of a classic Daisy cocktail, and delights the taste buds. Byrhh Grand Quinquina, crème de cassis, fresh lemon, sugar, raspberries

French £10 Everyone’s guilty pleasure, this fun and fruity cocktail was invented in the decade of big hair and even bigger shoulder pads. Ketel One, Chambord, pineapple juice 8 COCKTAILS

Clover Club £9 The pre-dates prohibition and is named after the Philadelphia men’s club of the same name which met at the Bellevue Stratford hotel from 1882 until the 1920s. The cocktail was all but forgotten until recent years, but thankfully has been rediscovered and is now celebrated. Tanqueray Gin, Martini Rosso, raspberry syrup, lemon juice, egg white

White Lady £9 The is believed to have been invented by famous bartender Harry McElhone while he was working at London’s Ciro Club in 1919. At that time, he used equal parts of white crème de menthe, triple sec and lemon juice. It was not until he had his own Harry’s New York Bar in Paris, in 1923, that he adapted the recipe by swapping the crème de menthe with gin. Harry Craddock, of The American Bar at The Savoy in London also gets a fair bit of credit. In 1930 he published the recipe in his Savoy Cocktail Book, increasing the volume of gin and therefore making the drink drier. It was Peter Dorelli, legendary former manager of The American Bar, who suggested adding a dash of egg white to bind the drink together and give a smooth and silky finish. Tanqueray Gin, Cointreau, lemon juice, sugar syrup, egg white

New Orleans Fizz £10 Also known as a Ramos Fizz, the New Orleans Fizz was created in the late 1800’s by Henry C. Ramos in New Orleans. The cocktail became so popular that by the 1915 Mardi Gras celebration Ramos’ 35 ‘shaker boys’ could not keep up with demand. Tanqueray Gin, lemon juice, lime juice, sugar, cream, egg white, soda

Hanky-Panky £10 This cocktail was invented in the 1920s by Ada Coleman who was head bartender of The Savoy Hotel’s American Bar in London, and is named after actor Sir Charles Hawtrey, for whom the cocktail was created, after he proclaimed ‘By Jove! That is the real hanky-panky!’ upon tasting it. Arbikie AK’S Gin, Martini Rosso, Fernet-Branca 9 COCKTAILS

Negroni £9 While the drink’s origins are unknown, the most widely reported account is that it was first mixed in Florence, Italy, in 1919. Count Camillo concocted it by asking the bartender, Fosco Scarselli, to strengthen his favorite cocktail, the , by adding gin rather than the normal soda water. As the drink was conceived before the invention of dry gin, the kind of gin used would have likely been aged or Old Tom style. Makar Old Tom, Martini Rosso,

Penicillin £9 Originally created by New York bartender Sam Ross, the Cocktail takes the warming, soothing of honey, lemon juice and fresh ginger, and fortifies them with a good dose of whisky. Black Bottle whisky, lemon juice, honey ginger syrup, Ardbeg spray

Manhattan Like so many cocktails, the origin of the is lost to time, but it is believed to have been invented in the late 1800s and was variously known as a Turf Club cocktail, a Jockey Club cocktail and a Manhattan cocktail. DRY £9 Jim Beam Double , Martini Dry, Angostura Bitters

SWEET £9 Jim Beam Double Oak, Martini Rosso, Angostura Bitters

PERFECT £9 Jim Beam Double Oak, Martini Dry, Martini Rosso, Angostura Bitters

WALDORF RECIPE MANHATTAN £9.50 In The Old Waldorf Astoria Bar Book, A.S. Crockett calls for equal parts of whiskey, and absinthe. That is quite a lot of absinthe and over the years the ratios have been adapted to those above. If you are adventurous, give the original a try - it’s very interesting.

10 PRESTIGE COLLECTION

El Presidente £20 Described in a 1919 article in the New York Evening Telegram, this Cuban mixture was apparently christened in honor of Mario García Menocal, president of that country from 1913 to 1921. By the mid 1920s, the more discriminating among the massive influx of Americans that prohibition had tempted to Cuba had learned to like it too. Before long, El Presidente was one of the most popular drinks in the USA as well, whether served illegally during prohibition or legally after. Ron Zacapa 23, Martini Rosso, Triple Sec, Grenadine

Corpse Reviver No.1 £20 The family of cocktails are intended as ‘hair of the dog’ hangover cures, hence the name. Many of the Corpse Reviver cocktails have been lost to time, but the Corpse Reviver No. 1, which appeared in print as early as an issue of Punch in 1861 and is listed in the 1930 Savoy Cocktail Handbook by Harry Craddock has survived to this day. Hennessy XO, Daron Fine , Martini Rosso

Old Fashioned The first use of the name ‘’ for a cocktail is said to have been at the Pendennis Club, a gentlemen’s club founded in 1881 in Louisville, . The recipe was said to have been invented by a bartender at that club in honor of Colonel James E. Pepper, a prominent bourbon distiller, who brought it to the Waldorf Astoria Hotel bar in New York City. MACALLAN SIENNA OLD FASHIONED £20 Macallan Sienna, Angostura Bitters, orange bitters, sugar

GLENGOYNE 18 YEAR OLD FASHIONED £20 Glengoyne 18 year, Angostura Bitters, orange bitters, sugar

CLASSIC OLD FASHIONED £10 Maker’s Mark, Angostura Bitters, orange bitters, sugar

11 MARTINIS

It is safe to say the Martini is one of the world’s most iconic and renowned mixed drinks, although it’s exact origin is unclear. Written records of the Martini started appearing towards the mid to late 19th century, but like many classics of its kind it is certain that people would have been enjoying the mix of gin and vermouth many years before. During prohibition the easy access of both of these ingredients ensured the Martini was cemented in our culture and it became the drink of choice for those wishing to consume hard in a civilised manner. Over the years the ratio of spirit to vermouth changed - originally the mix would most likely be 1:1, most likely due to the crudeness of the quite often homemade gin and the lowprice of French and Italian . As gin became more refined, the ratio gradually shifted towards what we commonly see now as a Martini, heavy on the gin and very light on the vermouth.

3. Shaken or Stirred? Shaking and stirring are two means to the same end, chilling the Martini while adding water from melting ice which is critical to the overall flavour profile. STIRRING is a delicate process that slowly chills the glass. The slower cooling also means slower dilution. SHAKING is much more violent, and the increased surface contact cools the drink much faster.

5. Enjoy! 13 WHISKY

No one knows exactly when we Scots began distilling whisky, but it has certainly been an evolving art and business for many centuries. The ancient Celts called it ‘Uisge beatha’, which translates literally as ‘the water of life’, a sign that the our passion for whisky is nothing new! True scotch must adhere to the rules set forth in the Order of 1990 and be aged in for at least three years. Scotch must be distilled from water and malted and can be fermented using only yeast. The spirit must be distilled at an alcoholic strength of less than 94.8 percent by volume so it retains the flavour of the raw materials. Scotch is bottled with the addition of no other substance with the exception of water and caramel spirit.

17 WORLD WHISKIES

Whiskies from the United States can vary from bourbon, or blends of both. Bourbon is technically a blend of differing grain bases but has to contain a larger percentage than other grains in the blend. Rye whiskies tend to be a bit more peppery and earthier, but have fruitiness buried in their characteristics. Canadian Club is also a blend that includes rye in its mix and was sold as such during prohibition in the US due to their favouring it. Japanese whiskies were similar to Scotch originally but are now generally aged in indigenous Japanese oak.

18 SPIRITS & APERITIFS

Although each spirit has a unique history, vodka, rum, tequila, gin, bourbon, whisky and cordials are produced using similar methods. Variations occur in the raw materials and the stills used to create these potables, but the basic production process can be broken into six steps. The first step is selecting the raw materials to be used. Each ingredient used adds to the overall profile. They are then milled, before being mixed with water which begins the process. This is followed by the fermentation stage, during which the mash breaks down and ferments, resulting in a process which creates ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide. then separates the alcohol and water and forms a pure alcohol liquid. The distillation process is often repeated to ensure pureness of the liquid. The final process is the aging, or maturation stage. The ageing process is different for all spirits and can range from hours to decades.
