Strong white rum, kept in the freezer.
Cheap, fizzy, cider (or 7-UP)
Cubes of strong gin, previously made in the freezer ice tray.
Some form of mint liqueur for flavour, aroma and colour.
Lemon oil - not too much. (or several lemon twists)
A dash of green Tabasco.
A sprinkle of cinnamon.
An olive, to serve.

Where did you get that receipe? What are the parts for that?

It is from the intro to the book of transcripts of the Radio Plays.

As an aside, for those that have trouble freezing gin, cut the gin with DISTILLED (not tap or mere bottled --- Distilled Water is pure H2O and has no taste) water.

No parts given sorry, but I (being a former bartender), I would do it akin to a Long Island Ice tea:

1. 3-6 cubes of 50% cut-with-distilled-H2O gin (I would probably not use Tanqurey or Bombay Sapphire as those have pretty strong tastes that may conflict. Worth experimentation, though.)

2. Shot or shot and half of Bacardi 151 from freezer

3. I might add 1 shot freezer-kept vodka depending on my mood.

4. Fill almost to the rim with 7-up or cider

5. lemon (or maybe a dash of sour mix)-tobasco-olive

6. Stir

7. AFTER STIRRING, I would gently pour on top 1 shot rumplemintz or some equivalent. (There is one that has gold leaves in it that would be paticularly appropriate. If I used the one with gold leaves, I would make sure I pour it in last, for effect (drift down).)

8. Dust the top with cinamon
