📜 History

Marcovaldo Dionysos created the Chartreuse Swizzle for a Chartreuse competition in San Francisco in 2003. The cocktail first appeared on the menu at Harry Denton's Starlight Room where Dionysos worked, then gained wider recognition at Clock Bar in 2008. The cocktail showcases green Chartreuse in an unexpected context—the swizzle format typically reserved for rum drinks.
