An wonderful illustration from a 1930s generic (not branded to a specific company or business) matchbook that features the core ingredients of a cocktail (spirit, ice, bitters, sugar, garnish & glassware) having a bit of a pool party together. On the back is the recipe of the Alexander Cocktail:
– 1/3 Gin
– 1/3 Cream
– 1/3 Cream de Cocoa
… ingredients that none of which are shown on the matchbook’s illustration.
