- There are two completely different drinks by this name. The original—gin, bourbon or brandy, lime juice, bitters, and ginger beer—was created by a bartender named Joe Scialom, at the Hotel Shepheard, in Cairo. According to a 1947
In a double Old-Fashioned glass combine the juice of 1 lime, reserving half the lime shell, 2 ounces dark rum, 1 ounce light rum, and a dash each of orange-flavored liqueur, orgeat syrup, and rock candy syrup and fill the glass with shaved ice. Put the lid of a cocktail shaker over the glass and shake the mixture vigorously. Remove the lid, garnish the glass with the lime shell and a sprig of mint, and serve the drink with a straw. Makes 1 drink.
