White Lady Cocktail Recipe
The ingredients needed:
- 40 ml London dry gin
- 20 ml orange liqueur (triple sec)
- 20 ml fresh lemon juice
- Lemon zest for garnish
- Ice
Preparation:
- Measure and Pour: Start by measuring 20 ml of fresh lemon juice, 20 ml of orange liqueur (triple sec), and 40 ml of London dry gin into a cocktail shaker.
2. Add Ice: Fill the shaker with ice cubes, ensuring they don’t spill over. The ice helps chill the ingredients and mix them evenly.
3. Shake: Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 10 – 15 seconds. The shaking will emulsify the ingredients and chill the cocktail to perfection.
4. Strain: Place a cocktail strainer over a chilled sour glass and strain the contents of the shaker into the glass.
5. Garnish: Carefully twist a piece of lemon zest over the drink, allowing the oils to release, then drop it into the glass as a garnish.
Presentation:
Serve the White Lady cocktail immediately, as it is best enjoyed cold. The bright citrus flavors paired with the botanical undertones of the gin create a refreshing, crisp drink perfect for any occasion.
Enjoy responsibly.
