White Lady cocktail (BEEFEATER Ver)

White Lady (also known as a Delilah, or Chelsea Side-car) is essentially a sidecar made with gin in place of brandy. What makes it different from the simple gin sour is the switching of sugar for triple sec. The cocktail sometimes also includes additional ingredients, for example egg white, sugar, or cream.

The classic concoction is most commonly served in a Martini cocktail glass. When an egg white is added a champagne coupe is preferable; the silky foam clings more pleasingly to the curved glass.

It is disputed who originally invented the drink. There are at least two different opinions: first that it was devised by Harry MacElhone in 1919 at Ciro's Club in London. He originally used crème de menthe, but replaced it with gin at Harry's New York Bar in Paris in 1929.But The Savoy's Harry Craddock also claims the White Lady (gin, Cointreau, fresh lemon juice). The recipe appears in his Savoy Cocktail Book, published in 1930.

I like this White Lady (BEEFEATER Gin used)! [Towser ]

Before I tried this White Lady with BEEFEATER, I had thought it was just so-so cocktail. It was neither good nor bad. The reason was that I thought BEEFEATER itself was not extraordinary Gin. But after drinking this cocktail, I felt my estimation was wrong. BEEFEATER played a great part in making this cocktail very smooth or easy to drink. Not too strong, not too light. Average balance was kept by this amazing Gin. What an interesting Gin BEEFEATER is.
