Fog Cutter

The Fog Cutter is a vintage tiki cocktail frequently attributed to being invented by Victor Bergeron that calls for a mixture of several liquors (rum, brandy, gin), the juice of lemon and oranges, orgeat syrup, and cream sherry.

[4][5][6][7] Jeffy Berry calls the Fog Cutter Trader Vic's second most historically popular cocktail, unusual for a tiki drink because of the cream sherry that is floated on top.

An official Trader Vic's drink menu postcard from the 1940s lists a Fog Cutter and reads "What a sneaker - positively only two to a person; really, I don't see why people buy them.

It was a similar drink to Vic's original but added dark Jamaican rum and swapped lemon for the lime juice; most importantly, it dropped the use of the sherry float.

[20] A common drink on the menu of most tiki bars, over 50 variations of a mug meant to hold a Fog Cutter cocktail specifically are known to exist, many in radically different designs than the one used by Trader Vic's.
