A stunning gin cocktail recipe, The White Lady Cocktail!
I’m all for classic cocktails, and this is one of those that make me smile. I love the white lady cocktail because it’s light, refreshing, and has a wonderful foam that sits perfectly on top.
Simple to make, this drink recipe is rather impressive and tasty. It does contain egg whites, which yes, I made mine with the egg white to give it a nice bit of froth, but if you prefer, you can leave it out and it will be equally delicious.
Similar to a gin-based Side Car Cocktail, and also known as the Chelsea Side Car or Delilah, this White Lady cocktail drink is nicely balanced, on the drier side, and great for your afternoon happy hour or after diner drinks.
