Savoy Hotel Special

3.59 / 5 stars (4 votes)

Originally featured in Harry Craddocks famous 'The Savoy Cocktail Book' of 1930. A quote in the book says about this cocktail - although it may be more accurately referring to the picture in the book instead:

"Peter, ninth Earl of Savoy, brought to England, as his wards, eighty-three of the most wealthy and beautiful girls in France. He then married them to the most powerful nobles in England. That is why he wore armour."
