Gimlet Cocktail Recipe
First created to help prevent scurvy on English Naval ships as officers weren't taking their rations of lime for it's vitamin C - hence why this recipe calls for fresh lime juice rather than Rose's Lime Juice which is commonly referenced in many cocktail books such as The Bartender's Bible by Gary Regan
Ingredients
- 60 mL Gin 2 oz
- 30 mL Fresh Lime Juice 1 oz
- 22.5 mL Simple Syrup ¾ oz
Instructions
- Combine all the ingredients into your cocktail shaker
- Shake with ice
- Strain into a chilled coupe glass
- Garnish with a lime wheel
