Gin rickey – original classic recipe Origin
The origins of this cocktail are just as clear as it is! It was named after Democratic lobbyist Joe Rickey, during the late 19th century. He had a bartender add lime to his daily dose of Bourbon and sparkling water. When the bourbon rickey was ported to gin, it was a huge hit and one of the most popular drinks at that time.
