#172 Cocktail: Kretchma

  The recipe is taken from David Embury's "The Fine Art of Mixing Drinks".
  The book is noteworthy for its highly opinionated, witty and conversational tone, as well as its categorization of cocktails and its categorization of ingredients. It also contains sections on glassware, bar equipment, a discussion of several different types of bitters, and much other minutiae.
  Embury had "never been engaged in any of the manifold branches of the liquor business" and was experienced "entirely as a consumer and as a shaker-upper of drinks for the delectation of my guests" (Wikipedia)
2 ounces Vodka
1 ounce white creme de cacao
3/4 ounce fresh lemon juice
grenadine too taste
