A Classic Gin "Army and Navy" Cocktail
This delicious "Army and Navy" drink recipe is a classic cocktail made with gin, fresh lemon, and interesting orgeat syrup.
Servings: 1 cocktail
Ingredients
- 2 ounces 60 ml of London dry gin
- 1/2 ounce 15 ml of freshly-squeezed lemon juice
- 1/2 ounce 15 ml Orgeat syrup
- Dash of bitters
- Lemon twist to garnish
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients to a shaker filled with ice (minus the lemon peel).
- Shake until cold (I like a good 15-20 seconds).
- Strain into a chilled glass and garnish with the lemon peel.
Notes
The original recipe calls for only half the orgeat syrup (and this is a BOOZY cocktail), but I found it a tiny bit too bitter so upped the amount.
