Bicycle Thief

Bicycle Thief - is what Zachary Gelnaw-Rubin and Abraham Hawkins call this joint-effort creation.

There are quite a few ingredients in the drink, so measuring it up is a bit time consuming. Take your time though and be accurate as the ratio between the ingredients is quite delicate.

The ruby red coloured cocktail you end up with is not only beautiful but also very delicious. It's relatively bitter with all that gin, Campari and grapefruit juice but it is of course nicely countered by the simple syrup and the lemon juice.
