Daniel Dalla PolaGuestTo make it, you'll need two ounces of London dry gin, four ounces of unsweetened coconut water, one ounce fresh lime juice, and three dashes of Angostura bitters.
Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice, shake until well chilled, then dirty dump, that means no need to strain, into a highball glass, garnish with a lime wheel, and enjoy.
Green Isaac's special is a literary creation of none other than Ernest Hemingway, which comes up in the lightning round of this episode, and it piqued my interest, so here we are.
It first appeared in his posthumous novel, Islands in the Stream, which was published in 1970 and was recently popularized by Philip Green's Hemingway cocktail book, To Have and To Have Another.
The Angostura bitters give it, as one character in the book observes, quote, a rusty rose color, end quote, which is absolutely gorgeous against any sort of lime garnish that you can muster.
The other nice thing about Green Isaac Special is it's simple and functional, using precisely the kind of ingredients you'd have access to in the tropics where Hemingway often found himself.

So now that you've got a new cocktail to experiment with at your next pool party, let's turn our attention back to the interview.
