New York's Twenty One club is thought to be first club to pour this tipple, while Chicago mobsters preferred quaffing this libation during the prohibition in the Southside, while their rivals in the North preferred a drink with gin and ginger ale.
Dames, Dons, cause a stir in your joint and keep it South.
