Gimlet
At first this drink was made with equal parts gin and Rose’s Lime Juice, but now with craft taking over, the omitting of the overly sweetened and artificial syrup is highly encouraged. To make a fresh lime cordial is super easy and will lead you to a beautiful drink that pops with lime flavor! Dealers’ choice on serving this cocktail, straight up or on the rocks, but as of right now with the sun out, we opted for the rocks!
