## Ingredients

- 30-40 ml Gin (金酒) — per serving
  - Tip: It is recommended to choose London Dry Gin.
- 1 can Sparkling water (苏打气泡水) — per serving
  - Tip: It is recommended to choose sugar-free soda water.
- 1 piece Lemon (柠檬) — per serving
  - Tip: Choose fresh lemons with bright yellow skin and abundant juice.
- 30-40 g Cane sugar syrup (蔗糖糖浆) — per serving
  - Tip: You can make your own or purchase syrup in a 1:1 ratio.
- 100 g Ice cubes (冰块) — per serving
  - Tip: It is recommended to use hard, dense ice cubes.

### Optional

- to taste Fresh leafy greens (新鲜绿叶)
  - Tip: Either mint leaves or rosemary will work.

## Tools

Manual juicer, Shaker bottle, Glass, Stirring spoon, Paring knife

## Method (4 steps)

1. **Prepare the Lemon** — Cut the lemon in half (cut perpendicular to the lemon's stem-to-tip axis). Slice one thin lemon slice from one half and set aside. Cut the remaining half in half again, then use a manual juicer to extract 20ml of lemon juice and set aside.
   - Duration: 2 min
   - Tip: Adjust the amount of lemon juice slightly based on your preference for tartness.

2. **Prepare the Glass and Base** — Choose a clear glass of about 350–400ml. Place 100g of ice cubes at the bottom, then pour in the gin, lemon juice, and sucrose syrup in order.
   - Duration: 1 min
   - Tip: If you have a shaker bottle, you can add the ice cubes, gin, lemon juice, and syrup into the shaker bottle, shake well, and then pour into the glass.

3. **Mix and Garnish** — First, stir the base evenly with a stirring spoon. Add the prepared lemon slice. Slowly pour soda water along the side of the glass until it is full.
   - Duration: 1 min
   - Tip: Be careful not to pour directly onto the ice cubes to reduce bubble loss.

4. **Final Lift** — Use the stirring spoon to gently lift up and down to mix the liquid evenly. Place a decorative green leaf on the surface.
   - Duration: 30 sec
   - Tip: Do not stir in a circular motion, as this will cause a large amount of carbon dioxide to escape.

## Tips

- Drinking alcohol is harmful to health; do not overindulge.
- Pour the soda water slowly to avoid bubbles dissipating too quickly and affecting the taste.
- If the ice cubes melt too quickly, you can strain out the crushed ice and replenish with larger ice cubes.
