Lewis Carroll was a renaissance man of his time, and so too can this cocktail shine in a multitude of contexts, though as Carroll was at his best with the pen, our Jabberwocky cocktail most certainly shines brightest alongside a slain jabberwocky beast of Grilled Octopus with smoked paprika, buttered potatoes, preserved lemon, capers, and parsley.

"Oh, frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!"
