The Clover Club Cocktail is one of those classics that should live on in every mixologist\\\'s repertoire. According to The Old Waldorf-Astoria Bar Book the drink was first created at the bar of the Bellevue-Stratford in Philadelphia, a popular hang out for \\\"literary, legal, financial and business lights of the Quaker City\\\" of the 1800\\\'s. Today grenadine is often used in place of the raspberry syrup, but I have to agree with Gary Regan in The Joy of Mixology when he advocates the use of raspberry syrup because \\\"without it this drink isn\\\'t much to talk about.\\\"
