The Ideal Bartender by Tom Bullock (1917, p.20) — Bullock 1917
| 2 dashes | Lemon juice (fresh) — Lemon Juice | base |
| 0.5 jigger | Whiskey — Rye or Bourbon Whiskey | base |
| Seltzer water — Apollinaris or Seltzer | dilution | |
| 0.5 jigger | Sherry wine — Sherry Wine | modifier |
| 2 teaspoonfuls | pineapple syrup — Pineapple Syrup | sweetener |
- Drop one piece of ice into a highball glass.
- Build the drink, fill with Apollinaris or seltzer, and serve.
Ice: 1 piece ice
This matters because Bullock preserves a whiskey-sherry highball branch rather than a simple spirit-and-soda template.
The long service and dual sparkling-water option are central to the drink's identity.
