Method

How to make White Lady

Follow the 5 reviewed catalog steps in order.

  1. 01

    Chill a coupe glass before you begin, then prepare a fresh strip of lemon peel for the garnish.

  2. 02

    Fill a shaker with fresh ice and add the gin, triple sec, and freshly squeezed lemon juice.

  3. 03

    Shake hard for 10–15 seconds so the citrus is chilled and diluted into a smooth sour.

  4. 04

    Empty the ice from the coupe and double-strain the drink into the chilled glass to remove small ice shards.

  5. 05

    Express the lemon peel over the surface, wipe it around the rim, and drop it in or discard it.
