The Sherry Cobbler is a Cocktail which consists of Sherry, Fruit, Sugar, and Shaved Ice.
Charles Dickens, Martin Chuzzlewit (1844): "This wonderful invention, Sir...it is called a Cobbler. Sherry Cobbler, when you name it long; Cobbler when you name it short."

- Take 1 table-spoonful of fine white sugar.
