Embassy Cocktail
Rum, brandy, triple sec, lime, angostura.
Thirties Hollywood in a coupe. Dry, balanced, with a red-carpet pedigree.
Profile: bold and tropical. A late-night sipper, to take slowly.
It appears in Harry Craddock's 1930 Harry's ABC of Mixing Cocktails, but its fame is tied to Los Angeles luxury-hotel bars and silent-film parties. Putting rum and brandy together was considered bold back then: today it reads as classic elegance. A drink for anyone who loves a more structured sour without losing the finesse.
