| 0.5 whole lime | Lime juice (fresh) — lime juice | acid |
| 1 drink | gin — Tom or Plymouth gin | base |
| 1 piece | ice — ice | base |
| Soda water — syphon seltzer or soda | dilution | |
| 2 sprig | mint — fresh mint | other |
- Prepare in the same manner as the Gin Rickey.
- Add two or three sprigs of fresh mint and serve.
Garnish: Fresh mint
Ice: 1 square piece
This is worth keeping because the mint addition marks a meaningful named branch rather than an incidental garnish tweak.
