3 Easy 3 Ingredient Gin Cocktails

 One thing you’ll learn in our gin masterclass in Melbourne is that when it comes to this fine liquor, you don’t need a bunch of bells and whistles to craft a sophisticated, balanced cocktail. At our bar in Richmond, we celebrate craft gin through a range of classic cocktails that anyone can make at home. So, if you’re looking to celebrate with some friends or impress at your next barbie, here are some tips straight from our gin bar in Melbourne.

 

 


 

There’s something so sophisticated about a good gin drink, but many gin lovers make the mistake of thinking they have to ferry off to a gin bar in Melbourne to get their hands on some really good cocktails. As part of our gin masterclass in Melbourne, we look at ways that you can bring the gin aficionado back home – with some fantastic DIY recipes.

 

Of course, everyone knows about the classic gin and tonic, but there are some other simple, sleek recipes you can craft at home with only 3 ingredients. So, here are our top 3, 3-ingredient cocktails straight from our gin bar in Melbourne.

 

#1 – The Good Ol’ Gimlet

 

Also known as a gin sour, the gimlet is a great go-to for any occasion. Packed with ingredients you’re almost guaranteed to have a home, there’s no reason not to try it. Here’s what you’ll need:

 

·      50 ml Gin

·      25 ml Syrup

·      25 ml Lime Juice

 

Simply pop your ingredients into a shaker with some ice, give it a good whirl and enjoy.

 

#2 – Ready for a Gin Rickey

 

This cute little cocktail is ideal for those who don’t really enjoy the bitter taste offered by tonic. The gin rickey makes use of soda water instead, so it’s like a crisp and bubbly G&T without the bitter!

 

·      50 ml Gin

·      25 ml Lime Juice

·      100 ml Soda Water

 

Simply pour your gin and lime juice over some ice. Chase with water and you’re ready to relax!

 

 

#3 – Party with a Pink Gin Fizz

 

While the Gin Fizz might sound like a lot of work, it’s actually pretty simple. Plus, with its soft blush colour, it’s absolutely Instagram worthy!

 

·      75 ml Pink Gin

·      125 ml Prosecco

·      25 ml Lemon Juice

 

No need to shake with this one. Simply pop your ingredients in a glass, give a light stir and enjoy!
