Gin Cidre image

Bright, botanical and lightly bubbly, this cocktail is an ideal entry point to fall drinking - and one that can easily take you straight through to spring. Look to a cider that's dry, light and not overly powerful in acid or funk here: You want the botanicals of the gin and the salinity of the sherry to play an equal role in balancing the drink.
