The Gin Sling is a cocktail which is similar to the popular Singapore Sling. It retains the acid-sour, the sweetness, the gin and the fizz of the latter drink, but the former gets its sweet profile through sweet vermouth instead of cherry brandy. Both are excellent drink and ideal for a thirst-quenching release anytime of the day.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 oz gin
- 1 oz sweet vermouth
- 3/4 oz fresh lemon juice
- 1 oz simple syrup
- dash Angostura bitters
- soda water
- lemon spiral for garnish
Preparation:
- Pour the ingredients (except soda) into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
- Shake well.
- Strain into a chilled collins glass.
- Top with soda.
- Garnish with a lemon twist.
