My British MC is drowning his sorrows in a swanky hotel bar in Berlin. Instead of the usual vodka, whiskey, etc., he decides to order a cocktail.
Right now I have him drinking a sidecar, which was invented in London during World War I.
Here's the text:
"Much to his delight, the bartender knew how to make a sidecar. Normally, he'd chose vodka for getting piss drunk, but he was feeling sentimental for London and the tart taste of cognac, Cointreau, and lemon juice."
Is a sidecar a "manly" enough cocktail?
It's also 1937, so no doing tequila shots.

This wine drinker thanks you kindly for your help.
