Boxcar는 진을 트리플 섹, 레몬 주스, 그레나딘 힌트, 에그 화이트와 결합하고 흔들어 진의 식물성 특성과 시트러스 신맛, 달콤함의 속삭임을 균형 잡는 실키한 텍스처를 만든 사워 스타일의 칵테일입니다. 20.8% ABV로 진 사워 전통에서 스피릿 중심이면서도 접근하기 쉬운 음료입니다.

History & Origins

Boxcar is a classic American cocktail from the early 20th century bar tradition, its name evoking the freight cars of the railroad era that was central to American commerce and culture at the time. Its origin is disputed, though it belongs to the extensive family of gin sours that proliferated in the pre-Prohibition era. The combination of gin, triple sec, and lemon juice reflects the French Sidecar family adapted to American tastes.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Gin botanicals and bright lemon zest with the orange sweetness of triple sec and a faint pomegranate note from the grenadine. Palate: Spirit-forward gin flavor with the citrus tartness of lemon and the sweetness of triple sec and grenadine in balance; egg white creates a silky texture. Finish: Medium and clean, with a botanical and citrus fade.

Pro Tip

Dry shake the egg white vigorously before adding ice for maximum foam, and strain into a well-chilled sour glass.
