The recipe allegedly appears in a 1930 edition of San Francisco bartender and author Bill Boothby’s cocktail compendium World Drinks and How to Mix Them. However, other evidence suggests Frank Meier, a bartender at the Ritz Paris, was the cocktail’s original creator. It appears in Meier’s 1936 edition of The Artistry of Mixing Drinks.
