History
Named for the Algonquin Hotel in Manhattan — home to the 1920s 'Algonquin Round Table' of writers and wits — this rye, dry vermouth and pineapple-juice cocktail is tied to the hotel's literary heyday, though its exact origin is undocumented. It captures the brash, jazz-age spirit of New York between the wars.
