The tuxedo is an IBA Official Cocktail composed of gin, dry vermouth, orange bitters, maraschino and absinthe.[1]
Related to the martini, the tuxedo has had many variations since its inception in the 1880s.[2] The cocktail is named after the Tuxedo Club in Orange County, New York where it was first mixed. Tuxedo Park, the planned community where the club was built, is itself a derivation of the Lenape word tucseto. The form of menswear by the same name originated at the same country club around the same time. [3]
