Pancho Villa

The Pancho Villa is the Filipino answer to the Singapore Sling. It was first published in Charles H. Baker’s A Gentleman’s Companion in 1939 and named for the Filipino flyweight boxing champ Francisco Villaruel Guilledo who went by the nickname Pancho Villa. This recipe is a reconstructed version from Filipino bartender Marlo Gamora for NYC restaurant Jeepney.
