The Classic White Lady Recipe -- Variation #2

This White Lady variation is a brilliant little riff that I keep coming back to. Swapping gin for crème de menthe creates a bright, incredibly refreshing sour. The cool mint, tart lemon, and rich orange from the triple sec play together beautifully in a surprisingly balanced sipper.
