15 March 1914

The 15 March 1914 issue of Mixer & Server reported: “Paris has a new drink called the Pegoud cocktail, which is the first cocktail officially claimed by France, all other cocktails being known only at American bars. The Pegoud cocktail is reported to be a fierce affair, supposed not only to create a brainstorm, but to ‘loop the loop’ after imbibed.” (Adolph Pegoud was the first aviator to successfully 'loop-the-loop.')
