Spring still stubbornly refuses to surface, so I am holding off on herbs, fruit and citrus cocktails for now. But I’m not complaining, because that gives me excuse to feature another one of my favorite stirred cocktails: the Hanky Panky. Despite it’s adolescent-sounding name, this is quite the grown-up cocktail. Its constructed a lot like a Martinez, but with the key addition of fernet, which imparts an intriguing bittersweet note. If you’re a fan the Negroni, Manhattan, and particularly the Toronto, this cocktail is for you.
Included on the page is the usual look into the cocktail’s history, which is particularly notable in this case because it was created by Ada Coleman, the head bartender of he iconic Savoy Hotel bar from 1903-1926. This makes the Hanky Panky an, unfortunately rare, example of a classic cocktail created by a woman. Which is why I’ve also added some thoughts on bartenders who happen to be women (hint: they are the best).
Such a great feature on the Hanky Panky! Love learning about Ada Coleman, the brilliant woman behind this sophisticated fernet‑infused stirred cocktail. The bittersweet flavour profile sounds absolutely fantastic. It’s awesome to see these under‑told cocktail‑history stories get shared. Cheers for this fantastic piece! --multiplication

Really enjoyed the history behind the Hanky Panky—it’s always interesting to learn the story behind a classic cocktail, especially Ada Coleman’s contribution. And when I’m taking a break from reading, I usually switch to Rocket Goal for a bit since it’s a fun, relaxing game that helps me unwind.
Finding an original game account name is getting harder every year. I used this name generator and found several good alternatives within minutes.
Even years after its release, Dinosaur Game remains popular because it’s fun, fast, and easy for anyone to enjoy. It’s a great example of how simple mechanics can create endless replay value.
