Maiden’s Prayer

Delicate, citrusy, and just a little flirtatious, the Maiden’s Prayer is a charming classic from the early 20th century that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Typically made with gin, Cointreau (or triple sec), fresh lemon juice, and orange juice, it’s a bright, lightly sweet, and refreshingly tart cocktail that dances between a sour and a citrusy punch. Sometimes served with a dash of bitters or even a splash of cream in vintage variations, but at its heart—it’s sunshine in a glass.
