White Lady

3rd #cocktail of #FridayNightCocktails on 15th September: White Lady

***

Our third and final cocktail is the officla IBA version of the White Lady, which was was made in honor of Eveline Alice Wander Gorkiewicz, who helped British prisoners of war escape Turkey in the first world war. She would dress up as an old Turkish wash lady (dressed in white) and hide the prisoners in the washing trolley. The drink was named by the soldiers she rescued.
