What Is A Gimlet?


The Gimlet is not a Martini per se. But more of a classic cocktail. But I thought it was worth talking about because it is sometimes confused with the Gibson Martini. And it is very similar to a Martini becaues it is just really a chilled glass of Gin or Vodka and lime juice. Which is very similar to the simplicity of the Classic Martini.


How To Make A Gimlet



  • 1/2 part gin


  • 1/2 part Rose's Lime Juice

Serve and stir in same glass


Or




  • 1/4 Lime Juice


  • 3/4 Dry Gin

Shake well and strain into medium glass, fill up with soda water.


Or




  • 2 oz Gin or Vodka


  • 1/4 to 1/2 oz Simple Syrup


  • 1/2 oz Lime Juice

Stir and garnish with lime.


What's your favorite? Let me know.
