The Gin Daisy cocktail blends gin with lemon juice, sugar and some grenadine. The result is mostly citrus with a touch of sweetness and some berry notes.

This drink improves with a better quality gin. It’s good with a moderate quality one, but going top shelf makes a noticeable difference. The Gin Daisy is great as a refreshing drink at the end of a long day and before the start of a fun evening.
