So, I was at the Vanderbilt mansion in Hyde Park, NY yesterday.

Interesting seeing the hidden liquor cabinet via press button in Frederick Vanderbilt's den.

I asked the knowledgable tour leader if he knew the origin of the Vanderbilt cocktail. But, alas, he didn't.

Anybody know the history of this one (and if it has any tie to a Vanderbilt at all)?

Thanks in advance,

Steve
