The Perfect Gin Rickey
Gin Rickey
Simple & refreshing cocktail.
A Gin Rickey is a classic highball cocktail. If you enjoy a Gin and Tonic then you will love a Gin Rickey, as it has a familiar refreshing taste, but uses soda water instead of tonic water. It’s also finished with a squeeze of zesty lime as well as a dash of sugar syrup for the perfect balance of sweet and sour.
