The Gin Twist was all the rage in the roaring twenties so picture flappers, the Great Gatsby and glamour.   Gin was popular in the prohibition era and was often used as the base for cocktails.  This zesty lemon cocktail is always a winner and we loved to serve it at winter parties where a hot drink is always welcome.

You will need 

45ml Gin

22ml Lemon juice

15ml Sugar syrup 

Boiling water

This cocktail should be served in a hot toddy glass and is really simple to make. Just add the ingredients to a warm glass and then top up with hot water and garnish with lemon zest or slice.
