Trivia

  1. Along with the Martinez, the Marguerite is considered one of the predecessors of the Martini.

  2. The earliest printed version of the Marguerite comes from the New and Improved Bartenders’ Manual (1900) by Harry Johnson.

  3. The original recipe called for 2 or 3 dashes of anisette, but this ingredient was omitted in recipes following the first one.
