Harvard
A pretty sophisticated cocktail and one I just can’t envision anyone under 30 drinking. But, this drink is at least 75 years old and kids back then didn’t have shooters, light beer and wine coolers. Quite possible a faculty and graduates’ pleasure, The Harvard works wonderfully as a pre-dinner cocktail. Strong so be careful.
Here we go –
- 1 ½ ounces brandy
- 1 ½ ounces sweet vermouth
- 1-2 dashes bitters
- 3 dashes grenadine
Shake in a shaker with ice ‘til cold. Serve up in a cocktail glass.
