Ah, the Gin Rickey. Often confused with it’s cousin Tom Collins, Rickey uses lime for a cool, refreshing taste. Here’s my version. Try one while the Summer heat (or Winter cool) lasts in your area!
Sweet Gin Rickey
1 1/2 oz (45 ml) London Dry Gin
1 oz (30 ml) Simple Syrup (1:1)
3/4 oz (22 ml) Fresh Lime Juice
5 oz (150 ml) Seltzer Water (adjust to taste)
Directions:
Shake all ingredients (except seltzer) with ice. Pour over fresh ice in a tall Collins glass. Add seltzer to fill the glass. Garnish with lime.

Let me know if you like this one or if you have a better version!
