Gin Sour

Gin Sour

The Gin Sour is a refreshing cocktail that combines the crispness of gin with the tartness of fresh lemon juice, balanced by a touch of simple syrup for sweetness. Served over ice and often garnished with a lemon wheel or cherry, this classic drink offers a delightful blend of flavors that invigorates the palate. It's a perfect choice for those who enjoy a bright and zesty libation.
