The Southside is said to have originated in the infamous speakeasies of Chicago's South Side during Prohibition, where it was mixed up to mask the rougher edges of bathtub gin. But this cocktail didn't just survive the dry years—it thrived, becoming a favorite among high society and eventually making its way to the lush greens of country clubs across America.
This poster beautifully captures the essence of the Southside, featuring a crisp coupe glass filled with the bright, minty freshness of this classic drink, garnished with a delicate mint leaf, and set against a rich, green geometric background. Just below the artwork, you’ll find the recipe that’s kept this cocktail in high demand for over a century: 2 oz gin, 1 oz lime juice, 3/4 oz simple syrup, 8-10 mint leaves, and a dash of Angostura bitters.
Buy 2 prints, get the 3rd half off — mix and match across any print in the shop. Three in a row above a bar cart is the whole idea.
