Let's make 3 different versions of the Southside. This one is believed to be the Southside's response to the Northside cocktail. Again, playing on bold flavors to mask the poor quality gin they had to offer. Today it's made with great gins and has become a classic cocktail at most bars. The first one was topped off with sparkling water, there is a royal version with a splash of champagne and the most classic way it's served today is up in a coupe glass. Such a delicious cocktail. —- 2oz of Gin 1oz of lemon juice 1oz simple syrup 5-7 leaves of mint Shake it and served it in the way you prefer. ——- . . . . #cocktails #drinks #gincocktails #chicago #bartender #bartenders #mixology
