I didn’t really enjoy gin until my mid-20s. I was doing my first Whole 30 and it was basically one of the only things I could have in the realm of patio beverages.
Turns out, it’s delicious and I have no idea why I didn’t give it enough of a chance before.
My cocktail of choice since then has been (and still is) a gin and soda with plenty o’ lime juice — no bar lime, if I can help it. Ick. Who knows how long that’s been sitting out there.
Since the sun is finally gracing us with it’s presence and the notion of patio season is coming back into play, I’ve been on the hunt for new and delicious gin cocktails to whip up this summer.
