What’s the point, you ask, of a gin rickey without any gin?

The Rat Pack goofed around here, studio moguls kept second homes, even F. Scott Fitzgerald had a house where he hammered out screenplays between gin rickeys.

For something a little different, try serving one simple, signature drink at the party, such as apple sangria, cape codders and gin rickeys.

She's making a gin rickey with li hing powder, a sweet and tart dried plum powder popular in her home state.

My favourite is New Columbia Distillers, which has created three gins, including a spring/summer one that makes a mean gin rickey.
