  • Shake and Strain

"This cocktail was very popular in France during the war, and named after the French light field gun."

The Artistry of Mixing Drinks, by Frank Meier, 1933

Seventy Five ("75")

In shaker: a teaspoon of Anis "Pernod fils", the juice of one-quarter lemon, one-half glass of Gin; shake well, strain into small wineglass, fill with Champagne and serve.


There is a reference to Frank Meier, and his "75", "soixante-quinze" in French; "The Washington Post", 29th April 1923:

"Like Frank's "soixante-quinze" gloom raiser, the monkey gland requires absinthe to be perfect, but its amateurs have found anise a substitute with a sufficient kick."
