Show me some cocktails for the evening with my girlfriend. She likes sweet cocktails, preferably with gin. I'd like a gin cocktail too; it can be sour or a little sweet.
Cocktail Colin says:
I found a couple of cocktails that you and your girlfriend might enjoy for your evening together. One is a sweet gin cocktail that she might like, and another is a gin-based sour that you might enjoy. Both have high ratings and can be a delightful addition to your evening.
