The Cocktail Spirit with Robert Hess

La Louisiane posted

This wonderful drink is one I first encountered in Stanley Clisby Arthur's book "Famous New Orleans Drinks and How to Mix 'Em". There, he recounts how this was the house cocktail at the "Restaurant de la Louisiane" a once famous New Orleans restaurant. While it is too late to bring back its namesake restaurant, I think this drink deserves to once more see the light of day.
