A London dry gin and apricot brandy combine in the Boston Cocktail for a delightful little drink. The herbal aspects of the gin shine against the fruity sweetness of the brandy and grenadine, while the lemon balances everything out with a bit of tart. The finished flavor is a little more on the sweet side than some people may enjoy. On the other hand, if you are one of the drinkers with a little bit of sweet tooth, this is a great gin cocktail to try because it is a nice middle ground drink.
