How to Make a One-Balled Dictator Cocktail
It is a fairly political cocktail with bitter memories of the World War 2. It was drunk by just the veterans of the war initially but is now a favorite among normal public too. The name is suggestive and hints to the propaganda about Adolf Hitler, prevalent during the war. The name has been taken from the lyrics of a song sung by British soldiers during the war with reference to Germany’s ‘quick’ invasion of France.
One balled dictator was invented by veteran US army members in the 1940s. The drink, in contrast to the name, is quite unique and soothes the mind. It is fairly easy to make and has a quick to learn and master recipe. Here is a step by step guide to this wonderful drink which will leave you invigorated.
