To make The Usual, start by squeezing the juice of half a lime into a glass. Add a tablespoon of simple syrup and stir well to combine. Next, fill the glass with ice and pour in your chosen spirit. Stir again to mix everything together.
Once all the ingredients are mixed, take a moment to appreciate the beautiful color of The Usual. It is a pale yellow liquid that looks both elegant and inviting. The aroma of fresh lime fills the air, preparing your senses for the first sip.
