Notes
Why is it called lemon, lime bitters?
In Hong Kong, they replaced the lemonade with a non-alcoholic ginger ale mix, added lemon juice, and called it "gunner", and eventually, the bitters reached Australia, where they mixed it with lemonade, lime juice, ice and a slice of lemon and called it lemon, lime and bitters.
