Instructions

Experience the thrill of soccer and the spirit of St. Louis in every sip with the Gateway Goals Gimlet. This refreshing, reddish-pink cocktail pays homage to the iconic Gateway Arch and the vibrant soccer culture in St. Louis. Perfect for watching a game or toasting to the city's rich history, this drink combines the tartness of lime with the sweetness of raspberry, complemented by a unique hint of herbaceous basil. Serve it in a chilled coupe glass to elevate your cocktail experience. Ingredients: - 2 oz Gin (preferably a St. Louis brand to honor the theme) - 3/4 oz Fresh Lime Juice - 1/2 oz Raspberry Syrup (for that vibrant reddish-pink hue and a nod to the city's sweet side) - 1/4 oz Simple Syrup (adjust to taste) - 3 Fresh Basil Leaves (a nod to the verdant parks throughout St. Louis) - A splash of Soda Water (to add a bit of effervescence reminiscent of the lively soccer fans) - Garnish: Lime Wheel and a Fresh Raspberry or a small Basil Leaf Instructions: 1. In a shaker, gently muddle the basil leaves with the raspberry syrup and lime juice to release their flavors. 2. Add the gin and simple syrup, filling the shaker with ice. 3. Shake vigorously until well-chilled. 4. Double strain into a chilled coupe glass to ensure a smooth texture without any basil bits. 5. Top with a splash of soda water for a light fizz. 6. Garnish with a lime wheel, a fresh raspberry, or a basil leaf on the rim of the glass to add an extra touch of elegance and flavor. The Gateway Goals Gimlet is more than just a drink; it's a celebration of St. Louis's heritage and the universal love for soccer, making it perfect for any occasion that calls for a bit of local pride and sportsmanship. Cheers to the beautiful game and the Gateway City!
