Named after the Affable British marmalade-loving bear this drink was created around 2008 by David Slape for the opening menu at PDT (Please Don’t Tell) in New York City. PDT is a cocktail bar formerly co-owned by Startender Jim Meehan and was one of the first speakeasy-style bars to introduce cocktails in a very elegant and fine dining style. The thrust of the program was (and still is) focused on seasonal and often obscure ingredients.
