Pink Gin Sour (Triple Berry Cocktail)
This Pink Gin Sour is crisp, bright, and the perfect amount of sweet. The berry gin is quintessentially botanical and earthy, and the strawberry simple syrup compliments it so well. Lemon juice brightens the flavor and the cocktail gets shaken with an egg white for a light and airy foam to top it off!
