The Last Word is a Cocktail which consists of Gin, Green Chartreuse, Maraschino Liqueur, and Fresh Lime Juice.
The Last Word is one of the very few mixed drinks to have emerged from America during Prohibition (1920-33). Most other mixed drinks consumed during prohibition were either created before 1920, or were created outside of the US.
