Notes

Chill the cocktail glass. Because we don't serve this drink over ice, it's best to serve this drink in a chilled cocktail glass. Add it to the freezer while you mix it up, or place ice in the glass while you are making the drink, and dump the ice out right before adding in the cocktail.
Sweeten to taste. Add more or less simple syrup according to your preferences.
Use fresh lemon juice. When it comes to the ingredients, use the highest quality you can since there are only a few ingredients in the cocktail. Fresh lemon juice will make all the difference.
Use high-quality gin. Once again, this will make all the difference in flavor.
Shake vigorously. This will ensure the drink gets nice and cold, and the ingredients get nice and incorporated.
Make sure the simple syrup is cold. You will want your ingredients to be nice and cold so that you don't end up melting the ice.
