THE BOOTLEG COCKTAIL



The Bootleg Cocktail image

The Bootleg hails from Minneapolis. It's a refreshing cocktail made with naturally sweetened lemon-limeade blended with mint, plus gin, vodka or bourbon and club soda. Feel free to adjust the amount of sweetener and mint to suit your preferences. You can omit the liquor for a delightful, minty lemonade.
