Sounds like a great drink! I'll have to try it sometime ... I like Hemingway, but was always a great Steinbeck fan too ... I'll have to go back and see if he mentions any drinks! Ha.I’ve always been a big Hemingway fan. Read most of his works but find I’m much more enamored of the man than his works nowadays.
In all his books he told you exactly what he was drinking at the time and as a bonus, how to make it! So from Islands in the Stream, here is Hems version of a Tom Collins (a drink dating to the 19th century British in India).
2oz gin (must be Hendrick’s or Plymouth), 3/4oz lime juice, 2-4oz coconut water, 2-3 dashes angostura bitters. Bonus points if its a roadie, wrapped in a paper towel, held in place with a rubber band.
I have a bartender in Washington that loads the drink up with and it‘s good that way also. Play around and enjoy on the stream or your yacht!
