Hanky Panky
About The Cocktail
Originally created for the late Sir Charles Hawtrey, an English actor whose promiscuity was only out weighed by his eccentricities. As a self taught actor, singer and dancer, he famously hated giving autographs and once threw a vase at a nurse from his hospital bed for requesting his signature shortly before his demise. Bartender Ada Coleman named the cocktail after Hawtrey took a sip and exclaimed “By Jove! That is the real hanky-panky!”.
