My liquor cabinet is always well stocked with whiskey and gin, but one of its current crown jewels is a bottle of barrel-aged gin from Stonecutter Spirits in Middlebury. This herby, smooth-drinking gin mixes nicely with just about anything, and makes a killer gin fizz, which just happens to be one of my preferred cocktails. While the original 19th-century recipe calls for just gin, lemon, sugar and soda, many modern bartenders add an egg white, which gives the drink extra body and richness. I'll gladly drink it either way.
