Drink of the Week: Gin bucket
by   |  September 25, 2009  |  

When I think of gin, certain stereotypical scenarios come to mind. A flapper sipping a martini at a wild, Great Gatsby-esque party. A slick Don Draper type Madison Avenue ad man lunching over a martini, or perhaps a lawyer sipping a gin and tonic at the country club after playing a grueling 18 holes. I think it’s time we took gin off its pedestal and enjoy it with the same reckless abandon we enjoy beer, vodka or tequila. This week I give you a drink in the grand tradition of trash can punch or jungle juice: Gin Bucket. Its easy, tastes good and can satisfy the thirst of a relatively large group of people.

Ingredients:

1 bottle of gin

2 two-liter bottles of lemon lime

soda

5 large lemons

8 limes

Recipe:

Combine the gin and soda in a large

bowl or bucket. Halve the lemons and

limes and squeeze their juice into the

gin and soda mix. Leave the squeezed

lemons and limes in the bucket. Stir

and serve over ice.
