Episode 62- May I burst your bubble?
The one where we define”teetotaler.”
Oh heavens, being an adult can really suck. This is not what we pictured when we were kids. So tonight, we thought we’d discuss how badly our bubbles got burst.
Tonight’s drink? The very adult-ish seeming drink, the Gin Gimlet.
Classic Gin Gimlet
Remember all those movies where ‘adults’ would drink some snazzy drink and you’d think when you were a kid that when you got older, that’s how it would be? Then you went to college and drank trashcan punch out of red solo cups and were fine with it…and that became reality. Well, this is a chance to take back that fantasy and live out your ‘adults drink this shit’ ideals and become that person! Plus, this drink is stupidly easy and is really fresh and delicious, even with gin. Seriously don’t tell Gina how much I actually am starting to like it.
Ingredients
2oz gin
3/4 oz fresh lime juice (it’s worth the squeeze)
3/4 oz simple syrup
cucumber wheel or lime for garnish
Instructions
Fill cocktail shaker with ice. Pour in the gin, lime juice and simple syrup. Stir vigorously (not shaken) with a long cocktail spoon until very cold. Strain into a chilled coupe or martini glass, or strain over a rocks glass filled with ice, depending on preference. Garnish with the cucumber or lime and serve immediately.
