My hubby made me laugh by saying "ah, those were the days, when you could be pissed and gaga and still be Prime Minister after three strokes". Wonderful, and this is what's missing in national politics today, I think. Anyway, this cocktail was named after the great man himself (although he apparently hated Scotch.....). It consists of (for 1 person) 3 parts of Scotch, 1 part fresh lime juice, 1 part Sweet Vermouth, and 1 part Cointreau. Sweeten if needed with a teaspoon of sugar syrup. I'll leave you to decide how big your parts are, fnar, fnar! (forgive me, I'm drunk). For those concerned with provenance, this is from the Savoy cocktail book, by Harry Craddock (no relation to Fanny!! Fnar, fnar!)
