Royalty Refresher

The Royalty Refresher cocktail is a delightful, early post-Prohibition creation from Philadelphia, named as a loving tribute to the creator's wife rather than a nod to the monarch. This elegant libation combines the crispness of dry vermouth with the richness of Benedictine and the zesty tang of freshly squeezed lime juice, resulting in a sophisticated and refreshing beverage that is perfect for any occasion.
