Brandy Crusta is one of the most iconic classics of 19th century New Orleans bar culture. The "Crusta" in the name refers to the sugary edge applied to the rim of the glass, adding a visual and aromatic element to the character of the cocktail.

The inventor of the cocktail, Joseph Santini, a famous bartender of the period, gave the drink a flamboyant and balanced structure with touches of sugar rim and lemon peel.
