Clover Club

This is a wonderfully light and zippy cocktail with gin, lemon juice and egg white. I really enjoyed the aromatics of this drink when made with Vitae gin, a rum-based gin from Charlottesville, VA. The color is attractive as well, with white foam and a pink liquid in the glass. Clover Club is one of those illustrious and forgotten clubs of bygone days. Now the cocktail itself is more famous and there is even a cocktail bar in New York that bears the name. Why am I not surprised?
