CloisterThe Cloister is a classic gin sour that traces back to the Playboy Bartender’s Guide (1971). Its name nods to yellow Chartreuse, the complex herbal liqueur crafted by Carthusian monks in southeastern France. This updated version, inspired by Jim Meehan’s PDT Cocktail Book (2011), adds a hint of simple syrup to soften the grapefruit and lemon, creating a smoother, more approachable profile.
