Barnum Cocktail
Drinks • European
Description
The full name of this cocktail is Barnum Was Right. It is attributed to Phineas Taylor Barnum, an American showman and master of deception, who famously said, 'There’s a sucker born every minute.' This phrase relates to the cocktail in that it is quite similar to the Aviation and the Pegu Club. When a newcomer orders a Barnum and expects a unique flavor, they are reminded of this saying.
