The Southside is a simple cocktail recipe with gin, mint, and citrus. We use simple syrup, but you can substitute powdered sugar. Add 1 teaspoon and then add more as needed.
1 drink
You Will Need
2 ounces (1/4 cup) gin
6 fresh mint leaves, plus more for serving
3/4 ounce (1 ½ tablespoons) simple syrup
3/4 ounce (1 ½ tablespoons) fresh lime juice
3 drops Angostura cocktail bitters, optional
Directions
Add gin, mint leaves, simple syrup, lime juice, and bitters to a cocktail shaker. Fill with ice. Shake until the outside of the shaker feels chilled and the mint leaves are a bit bruised.
Strain into a glass with a few ice cubes. Garnish with more mint.
