Thursday Happy Hour: 20th Century

20th CenturyContinuing with the theme week of numbered cocktails comes the 20th Century, from the book Vintage Spirits and Forgotten Cocktails. Wikipedia says it was created in the late 30s to help promote the introduction of the Hudson Dreyfus Engine, which powered the 20th Century Limited Train.

I like the color.

20th Century

1 1/2 oz. gin
3/4 oz. Lillet Blanc
3/4 oz. light creme de cacao
3/4 oz. fresh lemon juice

Shake in an iced cocktail shaker, and strain into a cocktail glass. Garnish with a lemon twist.
