There are certain drinks and cocktails that just remind me of older times. These are liquors from when I was young that was drunk by older people. I never really thought much about it until recently when some of those older drinks started to become popular again.
Who would have thought that there were alcohols that were fashionable? But when I think about it, I remember when a certain type of beer or cocktail was very popular and then sort of went away. Gin was one of those. It seems like it was around a lot when I was younger and now it is coming back. Gin has become fashionable again.
If you are new to gin or want to try different varieties of gin, I would recommend trying gin miniatures. These are smaller bottles of the brand names or different flavours of gin. This lets you try different styles, like dry or flavoured, to find what kind you like the best.

New Orleans Fizz
New Orleans Fizz is an iconic gin drink. While this is a tasty drink, it can be difficult to make. It includes orange water, simple syrup, and egg whites. The egg whites are used as the creaminess part of the drink, and that can be what makes the drink difficult to make.

Negroni is a classic before dinner cocktail. The gin in this cocktail is mixed together with sweet vermouth and Campari.
