Your feedback
Good for you

Lime juice provides some vitamin C, which may offer minor uric acid benefits in small amounts.

Bad for you

Alcohol from gin increases uric acid production and reduces excretion while simple syrup adds sugars that further elevate levels, making it risky in more than occasional small servings.
