The Hanky Panky is a Martini variation that is magically transformed into something new by the addition of a little Fernet.
30 ml Rutte Dry Gin
30 ml Antica Formula vermouth
5 ml Gagliardo Fernet Radicale
Preparation: Stirred. Sprinkle with an orange zest.

History of origins
In 1925, she was quoted in The People magazine as saying: „The late Charles Hawtrey … was one of the best judges of cocktails that I knew. Some years ago, when he was overworking, he used to come into the bar and say, “Coley, I am tired. Give me something with a bit of punch in it.” It was for him that I spent hours experimenting until I had invented a new cocktail. The next time he came in, I told him I had a new drink for him. He sipped it, and, draining the glass, he said, “By Jove! That is the real hanky-panky!” And Hanky Panky it has been called ever since.”[1][8][12][13] [16] [17]
Even though the Hanky Panky was invented by Ada Coleman, this cocktail is nothing really new, but something that can be related to older drinks. On the one hand, the Hanky Panky is certainly a descendant of the Martini Cocktail. On the other hand, vermouth and Fernet were already combined in 1889 in the “Vermouth de Turin au Fernet Branca”. Equal parts are mixed with seltzer water. [18] It doesn’t take long before the water is removed. William Schmidt prepared his “L’Appetit” in 1892 with two parts vermouth, one part Fernet and a slice of orange. [19]
Period of origin
The actor Sir Charles Henry Hawtrey was born in 1858 and died on 30 July 1923. [11] Thus we know that the Hanky Panky cannot have been created after 1923. Unfortunately, Ada Coleman does not give an exact year of origin. She merely speaks of “some years ago”. This can be taken to mean many things, but we interpret this period as three to five years. One suspects that Ada would otherwise have spoken of the last or penultimate year, or would have said something like “during the war” or “shortly after”.
The Oxford Companion considers the year 1921 to be probable, for in that year Charles Hawtrey produced ‘Ambrose Applejohn’s Adventure’ at the Savoy Theatre, and also acted in it. The theatre was next door to the hotel. Previously he produced ‘Hanky Panky John’ by Basil McDonald Hastings. The play was performed at the Playhouse Theatre in January and February 1921. The Sporting Times of 5 February 1921 described that the eponymous butler John had the nickname Hanky Panky because he had invented a cocktail called Hanky Panky. [1] [20] [21-76] [21-77] This must have been the inspiration for Charles Hawtrey to name ‘his’ new cocktail ‘Hanky-Panky’. Against this background it becomes clear why Charles Hawtrey said to Ada Coleman: “By Jove! That is the *real* hanky-panky!“, because before that the hanky-panky only existed as a fantasy cocktail in a play.
It may be interesting to know that a musical called Hanky-Panky was performed on Broadway in 1912. Perhaps this event inspired Charles Hawtrey’s shout-out, as Tristan Stephenson surmises. He dates the origin of the Hanky Panky Cocktail to the 1910s. He justifies this by saying that, on the one hand, according to the recipe, a London Dry Gin should be used instead of an Old Tom, and on the other hand, in the first years of the twentieth century, the trend arose to prepare a Martini from dry gin and dry vermouth. This statement is based on false assumptions, and we have already addressed the question of which gin was used in our articles on the Martini Cocktail. Tristan Stephenson further narrows down the time of origin to between 1910 and 1914, on the grounds that Charles Hawtrey could hardly have overworked himself during the First World War. Why not, in fact? We do not think his argument is well founded. As explained, we are more likely to arrive at a date around 1920. [17]
The term “hanky-panky”
The term hanky-panky needs to be explained. Webster understands it to mean “questionable or underhand activities or a sexual dalliance“. The former meaning could be attested as early as 1841. But this is certainly not the meaning Charles Hawtrey had in mind. The Oxford Dictionary also defines hanky-panky as „Behaviour, in particular sexual or legally dubious behaviour, considered improper but not seriously so.”, but points out that the term probably originated in the mid-19th century as an alteration of hopey-pokey. Hokey-pokey in American stood for a deception or trickery, a meaning that in the late 19th century probably derived from hocus-pocus, whose origin in turn can be found in the early 17th century and was used as a magic formula by magicians. [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [17]
So by hanky-panky we must mean something magical in our context. We have found an explanation for the origin of the term, according to which about 150 years ago British magicians would have waved handkerchiefs (also called hanky in English) to distract the audience from what trickery they were performing with the other hand. This practice was so common that the use of a handkerchief was associated with any clandestine or artful act. It is assumed that just as magicians used the formula hocus-pocus, a rhyming word was also added to hanky, so that it became hanky-panky. [7] [8]
Be that as it may, for us this last explanation fits perfectly. We had already tried the Hanky Panky several times, but somehow we never really found access to it. Especially Frank Arne, as someone who has his problems with Fernet, had a hard time with it. With the right Fernet, however – in our case Fernet Radicale from Gagliardo – the ” Sweet Martini” – because that’s what Hanky Panky actually is – magically transforms into something extraordinary. The flavours fit together perfectly and you almost want to suspect some kind of magic behind it. One can understand Charles Hawtrey’s exclamation, because this cocktail is then really hanky-panky, that is, created by magic.
The recipes
Difford’s Guide talks about the original recipe being greatly improved by the addition of a little orange juice. This improvement, it says, came about in 2010, and it is not known who came up with it. [1] We clearly disagree. With the right ingredients and the right proportions, there is nothing to improve on the original recipe. It is perfect.
The combination of gin, vermouth and fernet does not only appear in recipes as Hanky Panky. Although the Hanky Panky is probably the first cocktail to be devised from these ingredients, as it was created a few years before 1925, probably around 1920, there are cocktails in the books with the same ingredients but under a different name. These are:
- With orange gin, French vermouth and fernet: Kemple House Cocktail (1927), Majestic (1930, alternatively with Italian vermouth).
- with gin, Italian vermouth and fernet: Branca (1937) Cure For Headache (1937, 1937, 1937) , Fernet Branca Cocktail (1930, 1933, 1933, 1934, 1934, 1938, 1944, 1948, 1949, 1953, 1956, 1972, 1976, 1977) , Fernet No. 2 (1934), Fernet Pick Me Up (1965), Fifth Avenue (1956, 1977), Fifty-Fifty (1929, alternatively with French vermouth), Futurity Cocktail (1953), Traveller (1937), Ulises Cocktail (1947), Villa Inda Cocktail (1961).
- with gin, French vermouth and fernet: Midnight Passion (1937),
- with gin, Italian vermouth, fernet and egg white: John. (1937)
However, these names are sometimes understood to mean something quite different. The Fernet Cocktail can also be another mixed drink with fernet (for example, Harry McElhone’s 1930 cocktail consisting of vermouth, fernet and curaçao, or Eddie Clarke’s 1963 cocktail consisting of brandy, vermouth and fernet). We have already written about the Futurity Cocktail. A Fifth Avenue in 1977 at Stan Jones is also a layered drink of crème de cacao, apricot brandy and cream. However, since the Hanky Panky is the oldest cocktail made of gin, Italian vermouth and fernet, we do not go into these other drinks in detail or examine them exhaustively, and whether their designation is commonly understood to mean something quite different. The previously mentioned examples are only to be understood as examples.
It is noticeable that the Hanky Panky only appears eleven times in our list before the year 2000 and is thus in the minority. It seems to have become a classic and better known only in recent times.
