gin sour

Juniper citrus drink

A gin sour is a cocktail made with gin, lemon juice, and sugar, shaken with ice and typically served in a stemmed glass.

The sour family of cocktails follows this basic formula of spirit, citrus, and sweetener.

A gin sour may include egg white for a frothy texture, at which point it becomes essentially a gin fizz without the soda.
