This drink was named after an innovative piece of French artillery back in WWI by a French American pilot.

Inspire Happy Hour Cocktail – Clover Club

Enjoy Happy Hour with a Clover Club

It's the end of another week and now it is time to celebrate all of your hard work. This week's prohibition cocktail is the Clover Club.

Known as the thinking-person's Cosmo, this drink was developed & served at The Clover Club, one of the finest speakeasies. This wasn’t your typical juice joint, as you’d find celebrities and socialites congregating.

Clover Club Cocktail

Try Making the Clover Club Yourself:

• 2 ounces London dry gin
• 1 egg white
• 1/2 ounce lemon juice
• 3 dashes raspberry syrup

Mixing Instructions:

1. Shake all ingredients well in a cocktail shaker with cracked ice to help the egg white foam up.
2. Strain.
3. Serve in chilled glass.

Some may think it is a girly drink, but it certainly is not. During Prohibition people used to make their own gin in their bathtubs, making today's version much tastier and appealing (for those over 21 of course). This drink recipe is originally from the The Savoy Cocktail Book, 1976 edition. Leave a comment below to let us know how you like the recipe.
