Description:
The White Lady is a classic gin sour associated with Harry McElhone and Harry Craddock. It sits close to the Sidecar, but uses a dry gin base instead of cognac. The cocktail should be clean, citrusy, and fairly dry. Orange liqueur adds sweetness and aroma, but should not turn the drink into a dessert.
