Standard

Named for Tennessee Williams' fragile Southern belle, this gin sour balances botanical sharpness against the soft sweetness of muddled strawberry and almond-rich orgeat. The dry curaçao adds a subtle citrus complexity that lifts the drink beyond simple fruitiness, while fresh lemon keeps everything crisp and grounded. It's a deceptively delicate cocktail with quiet depth.
