Gin Rickey
cl-ssic mixed drink. alternative to a gin & tonic. a gin rickey is made with 2 oz gin, juice of 1 lime, club soda, and a lime wedge for garnish in a highball gl-ss.
the drink was created at shoemaker’s in washington d.c. and a popular hangout for congressmen. it was named after colonel “joe” rickey, a lobbyist who died in 1903 and was known for entertaining elected officials in the area lounges.
gin rickey’s were also a personal favorite of american writer f. scott fitzgerald, author of the great gatsby.
they’re delicious.
stuck halfway through my novel, writing past 3am i poured myself a gin rickey and my imagination was spilling over every side.
