The Atlas cocktail is a refreshing and citrusy drink that is perfect for a hot summer day or a night out with friends. It combines gin, lime juice, and elderflower liqueur to create a light and flavorful cocktail that is sure to impress. The name "Atlas" is a nod to the ancient Greek titan who held up the heavens, and this cocktail is certainly heavenly in its taste.

To make an Atlas cocktail, start by filling a shaker with ice. Add 2 ounces of gin, 1 ounce of freshly squeezed lime juice, and 1/2 ounce of elderflower liqueur to the shaker. Shake the mixture vigorously for about 20 seconds to ensure that all of the ingredients are well combined and chilled.

Once the cocktail is well mixed, strain it into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with a lime twist or a sprig of mint for an extra touch of elegance. The Atlas cocktail is best enjoyed when it is fresh and icy cold, so be sure to serve it immediately after making.

The gin adds a subtle herbal note, while the lime juice provides a refreshing citrus zing. The elderflower liqueur adds a hint of sweetness and floral aroma that rounds out the drink perfectly.
