This is the same recipe employed two weeks ago for
the brandy sour. Both came from
Imbibe! by David Wondrich. I will admit to being a little skeptical of the gin, lemon combo but it was fine. The lemon is dominant enough that there's no clash. My wife described the result as "almost summery," though that did not discourage her from drinking it in winter.
Nothing new to report here.
ReplyDeleteI haven't even opened my cocktail book I got for Christmas.
It's been a busy month here, too. I'm hoping to get back to mocktails but it could be a while - they are a little more time-intensive.
DeleteYum! I used to love Gin and Wink which wink was lemon based I believe. Funny, I don't see Wink around any more
ReplyDeleteAccording to the Interwebs, Wink was grapefruit-based but close enough, I suppose. Your memory of alcohol-induced illness relate to brandy. Mine relates to gin and lemon soda!
