The Army & Navy is a classic cocktail combining gin, lemon, orgeat, and bitters. The tartness of fresh lemon juice is balanced by sweet and creamy orgeat, and Angostura bitters add depth and complexity. The Army & Navy is a great simple gin cocktail that has a slight tiki vibe due to the almond-flavored orgeat syrup and the use of classic aromatic bitters.
