A classic created in Detroit at the Detroit Athletic Club dating back to 1915. Just a few years later Prohibition struck leading to this beautiful cocktail to be almost forgotten. I’ve read various measurements on what is original. Many recipes call for equal parts of each ingredient and some call for basically 2 parts Gin and 1 part of each remaining ingredient. I’ve opted for that latter and with Green Chartreuse being hard to find, I’ve substituted with L’Excuse.

Add all ingredients to a cocktail shaker and shake with ice. Fine strain into a coupe and garnish with a cocktail cherry.
Editor's Note
Swapping the classic equal‑part formula for a 2:1 ratio lets the gin shine while chartreuse and maraschino keep the herbal‑sweet backbone lively.
