Tradition's Southside Recipe

We'd drink this refreshing classic cocktail all afternoon—it's easy to make and easy to gulp. Gin, mint, and citrus are an unbeatable combination, with a little soda to lighten it up. At Tradition in San Francisco, Ian Scalzo and his bartending team serve it in a mason jar with a fragrant mint sprig.
