Hanky Panky Mocktail
0
An alcohol-free approximation of the classic Hanky Panky.
Created by Ada Coleman, head bartender at the Savoy's American Bar in London, for the actor Charles Hawtrey, who asked for something with a bit of punch. In Coleman's own account from 1925 he drained the glass and declared it the real hanky-panky, and the name stuck. More celebrity drink stories
