Tips
- Chill the gin, lemon juice, simple syrup, and water before mixing to help the machine reach the right texture faster.
- Use fresh lemon juice for the cleanest citrus bite against the London dry gin.
- Stir the batch well before adding it to the machine so the syrup is fully distributed.
- For the best texture, serve as soon as the mixture is thick and pourable.
