Which drink is named after a city in Illinois, Chicago Cocktail or Gin and tonic?
Chicago Cocktail The Chicago Cocktail is a brandy-based mixed drink probably named for the city of Chicago, Illinois. It has been documented in numerous cocktail manuals dating back to the 19th century. Chicago restaurant critic John Drury included it in his 1931 guide "Dining in Chicago", noting that it had been served at the American Bar in Nice and the Embassy Club in London. Whether it originated in Chicago is unknown.
Brooklyn (cocktail) The Brooklyn is one of five cocktails named for the boroughs of New York City, along with the Bronx, the Manhattan, the Queens and the Staten Island Ferry. It resembles a Manhattan, but with a specific type of bitters (several types of bitters can be used in a Manhattan) and the addition of Maraschino liqueur. It largely fell into obscurity after the end of Prohibition, but experienced a resurgence in the 1990s.
