Owner Giuseppe #Cipriani remembers that #Hemingway became a fixture in the bar ‘during the long cold winter of 1949 – 50’ where he divided his time between ‘the Inn on #Torcello, the #Gritti and Harry’s Bar, where he had a table in the corner.’ Hemingway is said to have been the first person to order a #Montgomery at Harry’s Bar. This very dry Dry Martini, mixed to the proportion of 15 parts gin to 1 part dry Vermouth, is named after (the British) Field Marshal Montgomery who liked to have a 15 to 1 ratio of his own troops to enemy troops on the battlefield. Harry’s Bar is world famous for the #Bellini, the white peach cocktail created by Giuseppe Cipriani in the thirties, comprising one part white peach puree to three parts Prosecco. Make sure everything is as cold as possible and only add a little sugar or syrup if the puree is too sharp. Never use yellow peaches, and don’t add any other ingredient. #verytroubledchild.com #TheDarjeelingBag #harrysbar 🍸🍹
