B&B by Bénédictine is one of the oldest premixed cocktails. In the 1930s, during Prohibition, a barman at Club 21 in Manhattan came up with the idea of mixing brandy with Bénédictine. In 1937, Le Palais Bénédictine decided to produce this by blending 60% Bénédictine with 40% fine French Brandy, allowing the flavors to rest and harmonize in small, vintage French oak barrels that have previously been used to age only the finest cognacs. With a light herbal and spicy fragrance, laced with the aromas of dried fruits, B&B offers a dry palate and a mild finish of honey. It can be enjoyed neat or over ice in a snifter. Also try it mixed with coffee or espresso, pairing it after dinner with dark chocolate.
