Three-ingredient cocktail

A three-ingredient cocktail is a cocktail that can be made with as few as three ingredients. The technical, 19th-century definition of a cocktail stated that it should consist solely of three ingredients: spirit, sweetener, and bitters. Sours consisting of spirit, sweetener, and citrus are another kind of three-ingredient cocktail.[1] An advantage of many such cocktails is the relative ease of making them, particularly at home,[2] compared to cocktails with longer lists of ingredients.[3]
