London Buck Cocktail

1 Lump of Ice.
1 Glass Dry Gin. (2 oz No. 209 Gin)
The Juice of 1/2 Lemon.
1 Split of Ginger Ale. (Fever Tree)

Use long tumbler.

As far as I can tell, the term “buck” refers to a drink made with spirits, Lemon, and, generally, ginger ale.

The London Buck is not a mind blowing beverage, but it is perfectly tasty and refreshing.

This post is one in a series documenting my ongoing effort to make all of the cocktails in the Savoy Cocktail Book, starting at the first, Abbey, and ending at the last, Zed.
