Gin & Sin

I'm guessing that the sin of this cocktail is the mixture of fruits, maybe it's an over indulgence of sweet, fruits that the creator was referring to. Whatever the meaning behind the name, the Gin & Sin is one fantastic Martini and easy to make, even for the low-stocked bar. There is quite a bit of acid and citrus in this cocktail, but they're cooled down with the syrupy grenadine for what ends up being a nicely balanced drink.

Ingredients:

  • 1 oz gin
  • 1 oz lemon juice
  • 1 oz orange juice
  • dash of grenadine

Preparation:

  1. Pour the vodka and juices into a cocktail shaker with ice cubes.
  2. Add a dash of grenadine.
  3. Shake well.
  4. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
