Xanthippe Cocktail
Xanthippe (pronounced zan-tippy) was the much younger, attractive wife of the Greek philosopher Socrates; she was alleged to have been extremely sharp-tongued and her name has for centuries been a by-word for a shrewish woman. We’re not at all sure of that but we toast to Xanthippe with this lovely, vibrant and sharp cocktail. Our…
