Ops sorry, am only viewing this now...really? So it is common to add lemon juice and call it a sour+alcohol name? How simple and cool.
I always thought a cocktail must have at least 7 fancy ingredients, and an umbrella
Can I then have a sour gin?

Beer, at a real pub.

And there were comedians, proper ones that you see on the tv. A great evening with friends, beer, good food and laughs.And there are people around!

The eggwhite is interesting! It turns it into a meal or snack almost

I'd go without the gin, myself. I never developed a taste for gin. But, I also don't like juniper berries, or even the smell of juniper bushes.

That's all right, you can enjoy whatever you like.
Gin is probably not my favourite...have half a bottle sitting there...so just might learn about cocktails.
The flavour I really really like was a walnut liqeur (orahovica) or is it a brandy? Hm...unsure...had it gifted by a former student, it was amazing.

Had to research juniper berries.
Don't recall ever smelling the juniper bushes. They are to be found here on Velebit Mountain. Will bear in mind.
Have an app installed that identifies plants. Will be useful. As long as there is internet.
But can take photos and compare later on.
I'll want to pay attention to the lemon peel, if I can taste it.
Oh and this is a nice way to vary gin:raspberry gin...
Aside from gin, would love to try all the cherry and/or sour cherry alcohols. Or several.
What is your favourite cocktail? Or drink?

You too? Cool. I had that the other night in a cocktail.
No ice? No nothing?
I drink most of my bourbons neat. I add ice to my high proof drinks, 130 proof and higher. I'll also put them in my old fashioneds.
