Information

This sweet, refined springtime beverage comes from David A. Embury's Fine Art of Mixing Drinks -- the original formula was 8:4:4 and Embury's is 8:2:1, so this lands somewhere in between, but the lack of ratio consensus is a good sign you can tinker with the amount of gin to land somewhere on the saccharine spectrum you're comfortable with.
