#88 Cocktail: Crux

   Crux is a small constellation in the southern sky, sometimes called the Southern Cross, and is part of the constellation Centaurus.
    This cocktail is another New Orleans sour type of a drink, but a more mellow one due to the use of the Dubonnet which is a sweet wine aperitif and is used in the same quantity as the brandy and the triple sec.
    The recipe is adapted from the "Jones' Complete Barguide" a book which was published in 1977 and contains around 4000 cocktail recipes

3/4 ounce Brandy

3/4 ounce Dubonnet 

3/4 ounce triple sec

3/4 ounce fresh lemon juice
