Clover Club

A citrusy and sweet creamy built around gin, with the classic proportions and service that make the Clover Club endure.

“Darling, a Clover Club this polished makes the rest of the room look underdressed.”

WHY THIS DRINK WORKS

The Clover Club works because gin, lemon juice, raspberry syrup or grenadine meet in deliberate proportion. Keep the method shaken, use fresh ice, and give the final garnish enough attention to finish the aroma without distracting from the drink.
