Penicillin

The Penicillin is an approved cocktail of the International Bar Association, prepared of whiskey, ginger, honey syrup, and fresh lemon juice. Sam Ross, a New York bartender, invented the cocktail in 2005. Its name is derived from the antibiotic penicillin, implying that some of its components have medical characteristics, with benefits comparable to those of a hot toddy, which is supposed to treat cold and flu symptoms. It was initially served at Milk & Honey in 2005.
