Introduction
The Monkey Gland cocktail is a classic drink that dates back to the 1920s, originating in the Parisian bars frequented by expatriates. Its name intriguingly references a controversial surgical technique of the time involving monkey gland extracts, believed to rejuvenate. With a base of gin and the unique combination of orange juice, grenadine, and absinthe, this cocktail delivers a complex yet refreshing taste that has intrigued cocktail enthusiasts for nearly a century.
