Description: A pink, frothy gin sour named for a real Philadelphia gentlemen's club of the early 1900s.
Cultural Background: Named for the Clover Club, a Philadelphia press club that met at the Bellevue-Stratford Hotel in the early 20th century.
Tips: A proper dry shake before adding ice is essential for the signature thick foam.
Variations: Fresh muddled raspberries instead of syrup give a more textured, less sweet result.

Q: Is this too sweet?
A: It's balanced, not cloying — the lemon juice keeps the raspberry sweetness in check.
