Equipment

  • jigger
  • bar spoon
  • Hawthorne strainer
  • cocktail shaker
  • highball glass

Ingredients
  

  • 2 oz Gin
  • 4 oz Limeade
  • Ice

Instructions
 

  • Get all the ingredients and equipment gathered up.
  • Dump some ice into the glass. The glass should be about filled with ice.
  • Get the gin. Using the jigger, measure 2 oz of gin and pour it into the glass.
  • Get the limeade. Using the jigger measure 4 oz of limeade and pour it into the glass.
    Pro tip: you can also just directly pour the limeade into the glass instead of measuring with the jigger. Simply top the glass off.
  • Get it all mixed together. You can do this by:
    1) using the bar spoon to stir well
    2) using the shaker to toss the drink into it and then back into the glass.

Notes

As an alternative, you can build this in the shaker instead of the glass.  To follow this method:
  1. Add ice to the shaker.
  2. Pour all ingredients into the shaker.
  3. Cover the shaker with the lid and shake well.
  4. Remove the shaker lid.
  5. Cover the shaker with the strainer and pour the drink into the glass.
