The Ideal Bartender by Tom Bullock (1917, p.46) — Chicago Style
| 0.5 lime | Lime juice (fresh) — Lime Juice | base |
| 2 jiggers | Old Tom gin — Burnette's Old Tom Gin | base |
| 1 teaspoonful | sugar — Bar Sugar | sweetener |
- Use a large mixing glass filled with lump ice.
- Stir well, strain into a cocktail glass, and serve.
Ice: Lump ice
This matters because Bullock preserves a specific Chicago-style Gillette rather than treating the lime-and-gin family as generic.
The source keeps it stirred despite the lime, which is an important period service detail.
