rickey

Gin lime soda

A rickey is a cocktail made with liquor (traditionally gin or bourbon), lime juice, and carbonated water, served over ice.

The drink is tart and refreshing, unsweetened unlike most cocktails: a gin rickey, a bourbon rickey.

The lime rickey, made without alcohol, is a popular soda fountain drink.
