Directions:
The recipe is quite simple, but you must use Bombay Sapphire Gin -any other gin may consign you to the fires of hell for heresy. Three olives are ceremoniously skewered on a toothpick (a later iteration created by Luke also skewers a cherry tomato), ice is added to the glass and the Bombay Sapphire Gin is gently and reverently poured over the ice.
Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
The £ Sterling is the unofficial cocktail of the "Bottomfeeders." A subset of TMCA members started by Gary Graham and our late Past Commodore Ed Herndon. This cocktail is named in honor of Past Commodore Luke Sterling, who introduced this libation to Roy Nelson (who submitted this recipe), while docked at Costa Grande on a down coast cruise heading to Rockport for Doc Mulloy's big shrimp boil at the Rockport Yacht Club. If you are fortunate enough to be on the boat with Luke, after the creation of the third £ Sterling, Linda will pop up from the cabin and say, "Y'all boys are gonna need some sandwiches!"
