How to Make the White Lady

The White Lady dates back to the early twentieth century and became popular through Harry Craddock at the Savoy. It combines gin, orange liqueur, and lemon juice.

It is often compared to a Sidecar, but with gin in place of brandy, giving it a lighter, sharper edge. The balance is clean and bright, making it both refreshing and refined. It is a cocktail that feels effortlessly classic.
