Think of this one the next time you’re in the mood for a grown-up version of pink lemonade. It’s refreshing and tart, but a little bit sweet, and oh so delicious. It’s perfect for summertime. Even if you normally hate gin, this one’s worth a try (I recommend Hendricks for this one).
Recipe
- 1 1/2 ounces gin
- 1 teaspoon raspberry syrup
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon maraschino liqueur
Pour the ingredients into a mixing glass filled with ice. Stir gently. Strain into a cocktail glass and garnish with a lemon wedge and a couple of raspberries, if you have them on hand.
