Bijou 🔥 This pre-Prohibition cocktail is a mixture of gin, sweet vermouth, and green Chartreuse like a Negroni that took an abrupt turn two-thirds of the way through. The cocktail is attributed to bartender Harry Johnson, who included the recipe in the 1900 edition of his Bartender's Manual and is said to have named it for the jewel tones of its component ingredients ("bijou" is French for "jewel").
