About The Cocktail
Although this cocktail is deliciously light and perfect to sip alongside a rooftop pool, its name actually derives from much sinister origins and was named after the 75-millimeter M1897, a French infantry canon that would deliver toxic gas shells to the fields of World War 1. It was famously sipped by Madeleine Lebeau and her Nazi companion in the Movie Casablanca.
