Very light and refreshing. Hint of mint. Did use sparkling water to add a bit of fizz. Also put in a splash of limoncello to increase the lemon flavour.

Gin and mint with a splash of lime. If you like a Mojito and you like gin, then you'll also like the Southside

Dry, complex and aromatic. A Fifty-Fifty Martini with a generous dose of fino sherry and a splash of triple sec
