1 Pour gin and juice into a shaker. As a rule, take about 150 ml of juice for 45-60 ml of gin. Which juice to take depends entirely on your taste, but sour juices are usually used, not sugary ones.

For a softer shake, try pineapple, orange, pomegranate, cherry, or grape juice.
For a more flavorful drink, use grapefruit or cranberry juice.
You can mix juices while maintaining the juice to gin ratio. Try a combination of grapefruit and orange, cranberry and grape, or your other favorite juices.
Rich citrus juices like lime and lemon can be mixed with gin, but other ingredients, such as syrup or soda, are usually added to soften the sour taste.

2 Mix the liquids with shaking. Place the lid on the shaker tightly and shake it vigorously up and down, away from your face and others. Shake for at least 15 seconds to mix the ingredients completely.

3 Fill a chilled tall glass with ice cubes. To chill a glass, place it in the freezer for 5-10 minutes. Fill the glass with ice at least halfway.

4 Pour the gin and juice into the glass. Open the lid and pour the mixture into a glass with ice.

5 Add decoration. A slice of fruit, like lemon or lime, is great depending on the juice you use in your drink. You can also add a sprig of mint.

6 Serve immediately. In order for the drink to retain all the richness of its taste, it should be drunk before the ice has melted.

Method 2 of 4: Gene Ricky

1 Combine gin and lime juice in a medium glass. You can use a shaker base, highball, or any clear glass. You only need a glass goblet to mix. And this is not the glass from which you will drink.
2 Combine gin and juice with a bar spoon. The bar spoon is a special long-handled device for mixing cocktails.
- Hold the top of the spoon, near the curled handle, with your thumb, forefinger, and middle finger.
- Submerge the spoon in the glass near the wall, but without touching it. Twirl the funnel by moving the spoon back and forth and up and down. Mix the cocktail for about 30 seconds.
3 Fill a tall glass 1/2 or 3/4 full with ice. Chill the glass before serving by placing it in the freezer for 5-10 minutes or in the refrigerator for half an hour.
4 Pour the contents of the first glass into the second. Proceed slowly and gently to avoid splashing the drink.
5 Add soda water to the drink. Do not stir or shake the soda as it will "run out". On the contrary, let the liquids mix gradually, naturally. Soda is a great way to dilute highly acidic juice and remove the bitterness.
6 Add decoration and serve!
7 Ready.

Method 3 of 4: Sour Gin

1 Fill a shaker with ice. About half, if not more.
2 Pour gin, lemon juice and sugar syrup into a shaker.Sugar syrup is sugar and water in equal proportions, heated until the sugar is completely dissolved. Sugar syrup is an excellent remedy for reducing the bitterness of alcohol and the acidity of very acidic juices. Pour all three liquids into an ice shaker and close the lid tightly.
3 Shake vigorously. The ice in the shaker will not only cool the cocktail, but also help blend the syrup with the gin and juice. Shake the shaker for 15-30 seconds, holding with your main hand and directing the neck away from yourself and other guests.
4 Filter the drink into a cocktail glass (martinka). The built-in filter in the shaker should be sufficient, but you can arrange double filtration with a separate strainer.

Amazingly simple and cheap! No special glasses, ice and even refrigeration are needed, unless, of course, you yourself want to drink it cold! Mix all three ingredients in equal proportions by simply pouring them into any glass of suitable size (at least 120 ml). You can drink a little or drink in one gulp.

37.5 ml inexpensive gin (Aristocrat or McCalls, others will have too strong a juniper flavor)
37.5 ml orange juice (preferably not from concentrate)
37.5 ml lime lemonade (also dietary if you count calories)

Carefully! The cocktail is so delicious that you can get VERY drunk without understanding its strength! The cost of a serving is penny!

Tips

Experiment with different juices until you decide which combination you like best. Many lovers of a gin and juice cocktail know their favorite combination, but ... "there is no companion for taste and color."
