Bull-Dog Cocktail
Put 2 or 3 lumps of ice into a large tumbler, add the juice of 1 Orange, 1 glass (2oz Boodles) Gin. Fill Balance with Ginger Ale (Reed’s Ginger Brew).
Stir, and serve with a straw.
Rollin down the street, smokin indo, sippin on gin and juice,
Laid back, (with my mind on my money and my money on my mind),
The Bull-Dog is a perfectly tasty drink, great for the warm weather we’ve had in San Francisco lately*. Gin, fresh orange juice, and ginger ale. How could that be bad?
*Of course the morning I post this, the fog and mist return, after a week or two of beautiful sunny, warm weather. Well, that’s summer in San Francisco for you. Still a good cocktail even in the fog.
This post is one in a series documenting my ongoing effort to make all of the cocktails in the Savoy Cocktail Book, starting at the first, Abbey, and ending at the last, Zed.

I am doing a similar Savoy Cocktail Book project on my blog, Words to Bumble, but I am only tackling one a week and have not had the tenacity to attempt every single recipe in the book. I am trying the Bull-dog this week, was doing a little doing Google research to determine how much “a glass” of gin should be, and I happened upon your blog. I’ve really enjoyed browsing through your Savoy journey. Congrats on being nearly finished, that’s quite the feat!
Cool, Johanna! Well, near-ish the end, depending on how you count the Fizzes, etc. The Bull-Dog is a good one, and easy to make. Enjoy!
