Although popular in the 1940s, the Gin Sour actually predates Prohibition. It was featured in an 1898 book by Finley Dunne, where Mr Dooley includes it in a list of supposedly great American inventions.

Method

Add the gin, lemon juice, sugar syrup, bitters and an egg white to a cocktail shaker with ice and shake until the outside of the shaker becomes frosted. Strain into a chilled, ice-filled rocks glass and garnish with a slice of lemon and a maraschino cherry before serving.
