What type of gin is used in the Green A Go Go cocktail?

The Green A Go Go cocktail is traditionally made with New Amsterdam Gin. This gin is known for its smoothness and citrus-forward flavor profile, which complements the fresh ingredients typically used in the Green A Go Go. The cocktail often highlights these botanical flavors, making New Amsterdam Gin a fitting choice.

While other gins like Tanqueray, Beefeater, and Hendrick's have their unique qualities—Tanqueray being more juniper-driven, Beefeater providing a classic London dry taste, and Hendrick's offering a more floral and cucumber profile—New Amsterdam is specifically chosen for this cocktail due to its balance and approachability, allowing the other ingredients to shine through without overwhelming them.
